With the world's appetite for digital communication expanding by the hour, there is an emerging opportunity for your organization—provided your IT infrastructure possesses the horsepower to take advantage of Big Data.
Big Data promises big benefits, but also poses a big challenge. In addition to its increasing volume, Big Data is highly varied. Up to 90% of Big Data is unstructured—flowing outside standard file structures or formats that would make it manageable. Additionally, Big Data is characterized by high velocity, as streaming data can require milliseconds to respond.
HP Big Data Services can help you reshape your IT infrastructure to corral these increasing volumes of bytes—from e-mails, social media, and website downloads—and convert them into beneficial information. Our Big Data solutions encompass strategy, design, implementation, protection and compliance. We deliver these solutions in three steps:
We can help you realize the value of your data. With our field-proven, integrated approach, we can help you transform your IT infrastructure for Big Data, from servers and clusters to storage and networking.
HP Big Data Services are available directly from HP.
Big Data IT Strategy and Architecture Services help you define the functionalities and capabilities necessary to align your IT with your Big Data initiative.
Big Data Protection Services help you address the expanded requirements for availability, security and compliance that are associated with Big Data systems.
With Big Data System Infrastructure Services, you can choose from options such as design and implementation, reference architectures and integration services.

Comments about Especially Yours Silver Wig by Vivica Fox:
I don't wear this every day, but only when I want to change up my look. I trimmed the bangs to frame my particular face. They were a little long and I hate hair in my eyes. I do receive compliments when I do wear it and I am generally very happy with it
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Wasn't what I expected
By pt
from Wa
I use this product everyday but it didn't come as I thought it would. The ad mentions how it's supposed to be 18 inches long but it was far from it, it was more like 12 inches. I was not happy when I saw this paying for something I didn't order given the color and style were right it was the length that made me upset.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

the only way you know which one religion is right for you is to pray about it with a sincere heart mine and soul. one can not work with out the other. God will let you know which church to join. don't let websites tell you that God is fake or not real or to question your faith. that is just Satan tryint to steer you away from God.

I'm getting anxious because there are two players I want and I want to make sure I can get them. If anyone in the 35ish range of the 2nd round wants to move down I'm looking to get 2 picks in that range.
I was thinking my 45th (2nd round) and a 6th round pick for one and a late round pick (10-12)
and my 53rd (3rd round) and 91st (4th round) for another and a middle (6-8) round pick
I won't pull the trigger unless i can get two though. I prefer a Plan B than an incomplete plan A

Comments about Lazer Genesis Helmet 2014:
I have used Bell, Giro and LG helmets. Lazer helmets and their roller adjustment are the best I have had the pleasure to wear. I am on my fourth Lazer Genesis helment and wear one road and mountain biking. My head is longer front to back and I typically wear a large in most brands. Where other brands will roll too easily side to side due to my head shape, Lazer helments' superior adjustment system keeps the helmet comfortable and snug.

Comments about Lazer Genesis Helmet 2014:
This Lazer Genesis is an upgrade to my Lazer O2. Both fit great. The major difference is that the Genesis has a more sleek fitting look compared to the mushroom head-like Lazer O2. Fits true to size. I believe they recommend a medium if you also wear a medium in Giro products.

The nation's largest retailer, Walmart, has scouted sites for two possible stores in Pamlico County — near Oriental and in Grantsboro.
The company has not purchased any land in Pamlico County and has not made official application for any permits.
A high-ranking Walmart spokesman said Friday that while the Pamlico County sites are under "consideration," the company had no announcement of firm plans.
"It's true that we would consider building in both communities. We are always looking for opportunities to build new stores and provide more convenient shopping for our customers," said Walmart Director of Communication-East, William Wertz.
He told the Sun Journal from his home office in Massachusetts that Walmart has opened 16 new stores in North Carolina this year.
"Oriental and Grantsboro are certainly under consideration, but I have to tell you so are a lot of other communities throughout the state," he said. "We are always in a planning mode, but nothing conclusive had been done in respect to Grantsboro or Oriental."
The town of Oriental announced two weeks ago that an architectural firm had submitted a site map for a Walmart Express store, to be located just a few hundred feet outside the town limits on N.C. 55.
"We really haven't made that decision at this point," Wertz said. "Maybe the firm got ahead of the curve here."
Walmart representatives have contacted the county building inspector's office about both sites, but no plans have been submitted for review to receive permits.
A Pamlico County building inspections office spokesman said the builders would need state environmental and local sewer permits for consideration of the county permits for mechanical, plumbing, electrical, building and installations.
"We haven't announced any plans for a store in either community," Wertz said. "We are always looking for opportunities and certainly Oriental and Grantsboro are communities we would consider for new stores."
Both stores would receive sewer from Bay River Metro Sewer District. A spokesman for Bay River said Friday that Walmart had inquired only about sewer allocation for the Grantsboro location, on farmland near the new State Employees Credit Union, now under construction on N.C. 55. But, Bay River has not received any site plans.
Spokesmen for the building inspector's office and Bay River said they were told the Grantsboro store would be a 70,000-square-foot facility.
The Oriental town announcement sparked immediate protests from a group that began with about 40 people meeting on Aug. 25.
The group has expressed fears that the 12,000-square-foot express store will negatively affect local businesses, including groceries and a pharmacy in the village.
On Thursday, the protest group launched a website: stopwalmart.org
It includes an online petition protesting the store. The petition can be downloaded and dropped off at the Village Food Emporium. There are also petitions at Town N Country, Village Hardware and Denton's Pharmacy. An email from organizers said petitions would be available at today's Oriental Farmers Market.
The petition statement reads:
"We, the undersigned, do not want a Walmart store to be built in or near Oriental. We value our small, independent, locally owned businesses because they contribute so much to Oriental and its community spirit. We sign this petition out of concern for those businesses if Walmart opens in or near Oriental. We sign this petition out of concern for Oriental."
On Tuesday night, the protest group offers a free 7:30 p.m. showing of the 2005 documentary, "Walmart: The High Cost of Low Price," which is critical of Walmart's effects on small town businesses.
"We are concerning that if Walmart comes to town our local grocery, hardware, pharmacy and gas stations will be run out of town," said protest leader Nelda Coats.
The Oriental store would be on town water and receive police protection, but it would not provide any tax revenues. Property and point of sales taxes would go to Pamlico County.
The Grantsboro store would be subject to county and town taxes.
While there are no other chain stores in Oriental except for a Dollar General, Grantsboro has a Dollar General, Piggly Wiggly and Food Lion.

Jacksonville's Kaitlyn Fletcher didn't score a goal, but when the junior defender denied an early one by D.H. Conley it gave the Cardinals the needed momentum to pull away from the Vikings.
Fletcher's defensive stop inside the 18-yard line just two minutes into the match set the tone for Jacksonville's 5-0 win over D.H. Conley on Tuesday night in the third round of the NCHSAA 3-A girls' soccer playoffs.
Leah Oswalt and Meredith McCarty each scored two goals, and Cassie Padilla added a goal for the Cardinals (19-3-2), the top seed from the Coastal Conference, who will play host to rival White Oak on Friday in the East Regional semifinals. White Oak beat Wilson Hunt 1-0 on Tuesday.
D.H. Conley (14-7-1) was the third seed from the Coastal Conference.
"Kaitlyn's play was huge," Jacksonville coach Dave Miller said. "They score that early one and then we got pressure on us. She just stayed composed and waited for the right time to step in and separate her (DHC attacker) from the ball and deny that opportunity.
"They (the backfield) played a good game and kept everything in front of them. They did a good job of limiting their opportunities."
The match was scoreless when the Vikings' Olivia Sandy made a run with the ball toward the right post. She looked in position for a point-blank shot but at the last second Fletcher got in front of Sandy and kicked the ball away.
"She got the ball and she was bobbling it around and I just got in front of her and stopped it and cleared it out," Fletcher said. "I knew I couldn't let her score. I think we stepped up after that."
The Cardinals sure did.
Just 56 seconds after Fletcher's play, Jacksonville took a 1-0 lead when Oswalt scored off an assist from Taylor Leyble. After a Jacksonville corner kick, Leyble played the ball near the right corner and crossed it to Oswalt, who took a one-touch shot while jumping in the air.
The ball sailed over the goalkeeper and into the net.
"That got our adrenaline going and got us pumped," Fletcher said.
And perhaps deflated the Vikings.
"In a way it was a two-goal swing," Miller said. "It was a huge momentum boost for us."
But the Cardinals weren't done.
They took a 2-0 lead about seven minutes after Oswalt's goal when McCarty scored after she made a run toward the ball inside the 18 and shot from the middle.
The momentum was clearly on the side of the Cardinals, who beat the Vikings by scores of 2-0 and 2-1 in the regular season. McCarty then scored off an assist from Stacey Scott with 1:17 left in the first half to make it 3-0.
"We definitely wanted to come out and play our game," McCarty said. "We knew we beat them twice, but we still knew they were a tough team and that we had to come out with intensity and put it away. We all had a great game. We had a great practice (on Monday) and we worked on shooting and I think it showed tonight."
Miller was pleased with the Cardinals' effort after not being too thrilled with their play in the first two rounds.
"Much better," he said. "We talked about it and came out and played a complete game. I think the girls were focused and I think they wanted to prove that they can come and play a good game."
Jacksonville extended its lead in the second half. Oswalt scored 10 minutes into the second half while Padilla later scored on a header after a corner kick by Rachel Owens to complete the scoring.
Other than D.H. Conley's first chance that was denied by Fletcher, the Vikings didn't muster many opportunities.
Goalkeeper Krysten Stenclik made three saves in goal for the Cardinals before leaving the game in the waning minutes with the score in Jacksonville's favor.
"I think we were just ready," Fletcher said.
Now the Cardinals can turn their attention to Friday's regional semifinal game against defending state champion White Oak. The two Onslow County rivals split in the regular season.
White Oak beat Jacksonville in the regional semifinals last year en route to the state title.
"We are excited," McCarty said. "They're always a tough team and it's always a good game."
D.H. Conley 0 0— 0
Jacksonville 3 2— 5
GOALS—J: Oswalt 2, McCarty 2, Padilla. ASSISTS—J: Leyble, Scott, Owens. IN GOAL—D: Loch (6 saves), Cooper (0 saves). J: Stenclik (3 saves), Moore (3 saves). SHOTS ON GOAL—D 6, J 11. CORNER KICKS—D 0, J 3. RECORDS—D: 14-7-1, season complete. J: 19-3-2, hosts White Oak on Friday at 6 p.m. in regional semifinals.

So, was 'The 206' laugh-worthy?
And then there's "Renton Abbey."
A trailer park spoof of the PBS British series was a highlight of the weekend's premiere of "The 206."
The new show by "Almost Live!" celebs Pat Cashman and John Keister didn't get 8 million lords and ladies watching, but it garnered lots of looks.
"It performed on a par with 'Saturday Night Live,'" said Rick Swanson, KING-TV program director. "It did quite well."
Weekly episodes of "The 206" will run through January after "Saturday Night Live" on KING-TV and repeated at 7:30 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. Sundays on KONG-TV.
However, whether the locally grown sketch comedy sticks around depends on ... us.
"The ratings are key to this," Swanson said. "We decided to start small to see if we can get something going."
He is optimistic for its continued success in the crucial weeks to come.
"It could come back as a permanent show sometime in April," he said.
That's right. Even if the show is a hit, viewers will have to go several months without their "Renton Abbey" fix while new episodes are taped at the studio in a former Bellevue fire station.
The response was overwhelmingly positive on the show's Facebook page: www.facebook.com/the206tv.
As one fan wrote: "Thank you for bringing laughter back to Washington state!!!!"
Many echoed similar sentiments.
Still, there were some dissenters. Example: "Are you all insane? That was the most unfunny thing I have ever seen. I didn't realize that '206' was the age demographic that they were going for."
If you missed it or didn't DVR or tape it: www.king5.com/on-tv/the-206.

Understanding teenage depression
By Barbara Floria, Pure Matters
The medical community once thought depression affected only adults. The risk for the condition can begins in childhood or the early teens, however, and increases steadily through the mid-20s. As many as one in 10 young people will have experienced an episode of depression by the end of his or her teenage years.
"Depression in children, teens and young adults is much more than a phase," says Sue Maisch, M.S.W., a family therapist in Glenwood Springs, Colo. "It's a real condition that can interfere with daily life, lead to suicidal thoughts and behavior, and go on to affect a person throughout life."
What is depression?
We all have times when we feel down or sad. Depression is a feeling of sadness, despair or hopeless that does not go away. In someone with depression, this feeling can last for weeks or months and interfere with the person's ability to participate in everyday activities. Depression affects mood, outlook, thoughts and behavior. It also can cause tiredness, irritability, loss of appetite, headaches and insomnia.
People with depression often see the world in a negative light. They often are overly critical of themselves, and feel worthless and unloved. They may feel overwhelmed by small problems the rest of us take in stride. They feel like giving up. They pull away from people and drop out of activities, but this isolates them and makes them feel worse.
Depression's causes
Teens can face many difficulties they're ill-equipped to handle emotionally: divorce, learning disabilities, and abuse and neglect, to name a few. By nature, they feel powerless against these situations, and the effects can remain with them well into adulthood.
Even a teen who doesn't face any of these challenges can be depressed. An inherited tendency toward depression also can cause the problem.
Depression runs in families, but not everyone with a depressed family member becomes depressed. People with no family history of depression also can have depression. Besides life events and family history, other factors that play a role in causing depression include social environment, medical conditions and negative thought patterns.
For teens, a stressful home environment, or neighborhood poverty and violence can lead to depression. Other possible triggers for teen depression include learning disabilities that make academic success difficult, hormonal changes affecting mood, and physical illness. Drug and alcohol abuse also can affect mood and lead to depression.
Signs of depression
To recognize a depressed teen, you need to know the symptoms.
These are warning signs of depression:
- Feeling deep sadness or hopelessness.
- Lack of energy.
- Loss of pleasure or interest in activities that once excited the teen.
- Anxiety and panic.
- Turmoil, worry and irritability. The teen may brood or lash out in anger because of the distress he or she feels.
- Difficulty organizing, concentrating or remembering.
- Negative views of life and the world.
- Feeling worthless and guilty. The teen may feel stupid, ugly or bad.
- Drastic changes in appetite or weight.
- Difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep or sleeping too much.
- Sluggishness. A depressed teen often talks, reacts and walks slower than other teens.
- Avoiding and withdrawing from friends and family.
- Restlessness. The restlessness brought on by depression may lead to behaviors such as fidgeting or acting up in class.
- Self-mutilation and suicidal thoughts.
Getting help
Depression is one of the most common of all mental health problems. The good news is that it's also one of the most treatable conditions. Young people with depression and their families and friends often don't know how to spot the problem or where to seek help.
Seek professional help if you suspect your teen suffers from depression, and choose a therapist who specializes in treating teenagers. Find a different counselor if the one you visit makes your son or daughter feel ill at ease or doesn't seem to understand your teen's needs.
"A therapist who's too formal or can't establish good rapport with children will make your child more apprehensive," says Ms. Maisch. "If possible, obtain a recommendation from your family doctor, a school counselor or friend."
Depending upon the severity of your teen's depression and its causes, the therapist may suggest either talk therapy or medication, or both.
"Usually a combination of both will get the best results," says Ms. Maisch. "An antidepressant helps correct the chemical imbalance within the brain, so the child begins to feel better. But the negative thought patterns that lead to depression may still remain, and therapy will help change these patterns, so the child can better cope with the stressors in life that contribute to depression."
The Food and Drug Administration issued a warning in September 2004 that antidepressants not only cause some children and teenagers to become suicidal, but that most have also failed to cure their depression. Children and teens who take antidepressants are twice as likely as those given placebos to become suicidal. Still, the overall risk for suicide is low. If 100 patients are given the drugs, two or three more will become suicidal than would have had they been given placebos.

MEBANE — Ali Lamot made a commitment to play football for Wake Forest before mid-June and he said he never wavered on that.
But that didn't stop the Eastern Alamance senior and his family from making sure they made a good impression on coach Jim Grobe and the Demon Deacons.
So on a Sunday afternoon last month when Grobe arrived with outside linebackers coach Derrick Jackson for an in-home visit, the Lamots wanted everyone to feel welcome. Eastern Alamance coach John Kirby and his wife, Lisa, were on hand as well.
Kirby said he sensed Grobe wanted to make a personal touch with the recruit and his family. Kirby said it was the first time he had been involved in the in-home visit part of recruiting at that stage.
"A big meal," Kirby said. "Several different options to choose from. I think Coach Grobe had a little bit of everything."
That included punchbowl cake and chocolate cake. The player's mother, Marian Lamot, said that she wanted to make sure Grobe was happy.
"He likes sweets so we made sure we had two special desserts for him," she said.
Ali Lamot, who was the Times-News All-Region Defensive Player of the Year, could be the type of player to help Wake Forest get back on track. Wake Forest announced a signing class of 25 players Wednesday.
For Lamot, it was another step. He played as a defensive end for the Eagles, but he's pegged as an outside linebacker for Wake Forest.
"It's a long time and it was building up," Lamot said waiting for the chance to sign. "No doubts, Wake Forest all the way. I feel it all paid off with this scholarship."
Lamot remembered the excitement and nervousness of the home visit.
"We all ate," he said. "And discussed my future. They're talking about you."
It figures to be a bright future.
"If you made a poster for an ideal student-athlete, Ali's picture would be next to it," Kirby said.
Lamot, who hopes to study in Wake Forest's business school, said he wanted to thank his Eastern Alamance coaches and teammates for "making this opportunity available to me and I'm going to take advantage of it to the best of my ability."

Associated Press
COLUMBUS — The largest stadiums and other sports venues in Ohio don't plan to let fans bring concealed weapons with them, even if state lawmakers and the governor approve a proposal that would allow it in facilities that serve alcohol.
The facilities they plan to continue banning guns for safety reasons, taking advantage of existing law that lets privately owned or leased venues prohibit weapons.
The Republican-led Ohio House and Senate have passed separate bills that would let a person with a concealed-carry permit have a firearm in many facilities that serve alcohol as long as the person was not drinking beforehand and does not drink at the venue. Violating those restrictions would be a felony offense.
Opponents say the proposal would lead to a dangerous mix of booze and weapons, but supporters say it would put Ohio on par with other states where people can legally have firearms in some venues that serve alcohol.
GOP lawmakers say passing the proposed change is among their priorities, but it's not clear whether Gov. John Kasich, a gun owner, would approve it. Kasich has expressed support for the idea in the past, but spokesman Rob Nichols said the first-term Republican wants to review the details of the legislation before deciding whether he would sign it.
It would apply to facilities with a Class D liquor license, which allows for on-premise alcohol consumption. Concealed handguns currently are illegal in such facilities, which can include nightclubs, shopping malls and museums.
About 17,000 locations in Ohio had Class D permits as of April 1, the most recent count available, said Matt Mullins, a spokesman for the Division of Liquor Control. Those include venues such as Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati, Nationwide Arena in Columbus and Cleveland Browns Stadium.
Facilities that are home to Ohio's major professional sports teams prohibit weapons, including guns and knives, and don't anticipate their policies would shift, even if the law does.
"We don't think it's going to change anything that we do," said spokesman Bob DiBiaso of the Cleveland Indians.
University sports venues apparently would not be affected because properties owned or leased by colleges are among the places where state law generally bans concealed weapons. They're also prohibited at many government facilities, school areas and places of worship.
Ohio is among nine states that generally prohibit firearms where alcohol is served and consumed, according to the Legal Community Against Violence, a national public interest law center aimed at preventing gun violence. Guns are allowed in bars and restaurants in eight states, including Mississippi, which enacted a law this spring that allows firearms in professional and college athletic stadiums, LCAV attorney Laura Cutilletta said.
A dozen states prohibit gun in bars but allow them in at least limited parts of restaurants. The remaining 21 states don't have laws about firearms in venues that serve alcohol. In some, the issue is left up to local governments or is less of a concern because there are tougher regulations on getting a permit for a concealed weapon, Cutilletta said.
Proponents say the proposal is about allowing people who legally have concealed weapons in their vehicles to carry the firearms into restaurants that happen to serve alcohol. They say it's not aimed at mixing booze and weapons or having guns in bars and stadiums.
"This legislation simply was never about being able to carry a gun into a bar — it's about being able to retain your gun at a Max & Erma's instead of leaving it in the car as an invitation to thieves and thugs," Jeff Garvas, president of Ohioans for Concealed Carry, wrote in an editorial sent to newspapers around the state.
Ohio would remain in the minority of states that ban people from having firearms if they're consuming alcohol, said Ken Hanson, legislative chairman for the Buckeye Firearms Association.
"We're still taking the baby-step restrictive approach on this," he said.
Opponents of the legislation contend allowing alcohol and weapons — and potentially raucous sports fans — in the same space would be dangerous.
They include the Ohio Restaurant Association, which represents 2,400 members with 5,000 locations. It has sent the governor a letter asking him to veto the proposal if it reaches his desk, association spokesman Jarrod Clabaugh said.
"The board didn't feel that the law in place now is broken," he said.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank The Lancaster News for wishing and printing numerous times "Merry Christmas" for its subscribers, as society is pushing toward "Happy Holidays" or "Winter Holiday Wishes."
The Lancaster News staff and editor isn't afraid of sticking to traditional values and standing proud of Lancaster County.
Our business advertises weekly with The Lancaster News and Mica Jones, an advertising representative with The Lancaster News, also wasn't afraid to use Merry Christmas once or twice.
The Heath Springs Senior Council on Aging lunch bunch, both in-house and home-delivered meals, local community seniors and Mount Calvary Outreach Seniors in Kershaw wish to express their gratitude to the Hillside High School Class of 1970 for remembering us in such a warm and special way.
We only wish you could have been present to experience the thrill and excitement as we received our gifts.
Our thanks also to Bright Light Baptist and Mount Tabor AME Zion churches who had a part in making this mission possible.
I would not vote for Barack Obama for president of our United States. He does not have enough experience. He could not be effective in foreign affairs or the job of commander in chief of our military.
Clyde E. Powers
Heath Springs
A year ago, several members of Lancaster County Council said a new county courthouse was a top priority.
The process takes time, but some steps were taken to move forward on the issue over the last year.
The next step in the process is hiring an architect.
County Council Chairman Rudy Carter said the council committee working on hiring an architect is in the final stages of the selection process, but an announcement on the architect won't be made until a cost for the courthouse is determined. The goal to determine that figure is early spring.
I find it interesting that in the Dec. 30 edition of The Lancaster News is an article that informs the public about the taping of a show on Congress' accomplishments in 2007 by U.S. Rep. David Price of North Carolina and U.S. Rep. John Spratt of South Carolina and then another article by Dr. Mark W. Hendrickson telling the reader not to trust Congress on solving the nation's energy woes.
In a letter published in both The Carolina Gateway and The Lancaster News, D.J. Carter comments that zoning notice practices have changed and he feels that this is an attempt to hide the facts in bureaucratic red tape.
Being a relatively new county employee, I inquired from staff regarding this allegation. Lancaster County has only had zoning in place for about 15 years so there haven't been too many years of "past times" to review.
This is the time of year for resolutions, and we'd like to suggest one for leaders of the Lancaster County Council on Aging and those of afternoon programming at the Heath Springs Community Center. That is, resolve to resolve your differences. Please.
Seems County Council's 2008 agenda includes a brand spanking new courthouse. I read there is some talk about having a vote on the issue. But we all know when the powers that be get a burr under their saddles it's the tax-paying riders who will have to hang onto the saddle horn. So, it's pretty much a foregone fact that a new courthouse is on the way and the old Mills designed building will become a possible museum containing some rusty textile equipment to celebrate our heritage, no doubt.
The Huckabee bandwagon is becoming alarmingly large and should concern every true conservative who desires less government and a return to true conservative principals.
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee's campaign Web site states he would be tough on immigration. However, his record confirms otherwise.
Apparently, it is the feeling of a minority of people in the Indian Land community that it is perfectly appropriate to issue a threat of a $4-5 million dollar lawsuit, which if carried through, would have a significant impact on every property taxpayer in Lancaster County.
However, it is not appropriate for any potentially impacted taxpayer to question the poor choices of those persons making that threat.
A permit was issued several years ago for a concrete plant in the Indian Land community. There were residential units in the area at the time.
By the end of next year the voters of District 16 will have given me the opportunity to serve in the Senate for as long as anyone since the formation of Lancaster County.
From the time I began my first campaign in 1992 people from Fort Mill to Kershaw to Winnsboro have blessed me with their confidence and support.
Early Christmas morning, Lancaster lost a good citizen, Rita Johnson. To her family and friends, Rita was special. Rita was a successful business woman, a devoted mother and wife, a civic leader, a wonderful friend. Rita held many offices in St. Luke United Methodist Church.
Recently there have been articles in the Lancaster newspaper about the consolidation of voting polls for the upcoming Republican and Democratic elections.
Any time changes are made in the manner that an election is held comes under the scrutiny of the NAACP. The NAACP has been at the forefront of equal voting rights for all citizens.
It was an early Christmas present. The Greater New Hope Christian Association soup kitchen.
It was rainy, dull day when it officially opened on Dec. 15. But the dreary day did little to dampen the spirits of the soup kitchen's champions – those who had the vision and those who helped make it become a reality.
Those involved with the Closing the Achievement Gap initiative met three times last year to address a concern that impacts everyone – the academic achievement gap between students in different demographic subgroups, including race and income.
Closing that gap should concern us all. The Palmetto Achievement Challenge Test (PACT), high school exit exams and end-of-course exams show a 20 percent or more gap in scores between the races and between those receiving free or reduced meals and other students.
I knocked on the window rather loudly in an effort to arouse a small dog laying motionless in my back yard. His head didn't rise when I knocked louder which led me to believe there was something wrong. I slipped on my shoes and went outside to take a closer look.
I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank the Catawba Area Agency on Aging, Lancaster County, Heath Springs Mayor Ann Taylor, Heath Springs town leaders and the senior citizens for their commitment to keeping the Heath Springs Senior Center open after the Lancaster Council on Aging ceases management of the center later this month.
The notification came in a simple press release: The Heath Springs Seniors Center was closing. Seniors using the Heath Springs facility could continue to get the same services at the Kershaw Satellite Senior Center just five miles away.
We knew what the reaction would be.
"It upset us really bad (the decision to pull services)," said Heath Springs senior Dessie Reeves. "We're a close-knit bunch here."
That is quite true.
On Dec. 10, while attending a friend's burial at Kershaw Cemetery, I visited my late husband's grave to pay respect. I noticed at this time that my tombstone had been removed. Someone had actually stolen my grave marker that I had placed beside my deceased husband's grave.
After reading Karen Paulson's letter to the paper about how my letter to the paper was not necessary, I was a little bit confused.
I was under the impression that the opinion section of the newspaper was exactly the place to air my opinion.
I am thankful to live in a country where I have the freedom to express my thoughts and a forum in which to do so.
And, as a matter of fact, someone from both the tax assessor's office and the Department of Motor Vehicles contacted my husband and me.

If you are just looking for a short-haired, medium sized breed of dog that isn't known for drooling; but has the energy of the Boxer -- then I would suggest the Dalmatian or the Weimaraner. However, if you like the look of the Boxer, then the American Staffordshire Terrier might work out for you. However, the Staffie can drool as well. But, any dog can drool; especially if they smell something tasty. If you can't 100% stand drool, then I wouldn't get a dog. But if you can stand a little, then the breeds I mentioned before and even the Boxer might work out for you. A hand towel would solve you problem was ease.6/2/2015 12:55:16 AM
You can not get your dog registered unless the breeder you got your dog from registers the litter. So no, you can not get her papered. She is an amazing dog and that is great, but if she is not papered, is not titled in anything and has not been cleared of all the health problems the Boxer breed comes with, I would highly suggest spayed her. Enjoy her. Love her. She is your perfect slice of Boxer heaven. Do not add to the amount of unwanted dogs in shelters by adding more adorable puppies into the world that may or may not end up in a shelter. Reputable, responsible and knowledgeable breeders are willing and do take care ALL of their puppies if at any stage in the dogs life the owner can not care for the dog. Are you able to take back 10 puppies? Get your girl spayed and enjoy her so she can live a long and happy life with you.4/7/2015 11:55:58 AM

You are with her all day long, you feed her, you play with her and most likely, you play with your hands with her. Especially when she was really little, so she views you as a toy. It's not okay, it's time to stop her from doing it again. This is the way I have taught all of my puppies and it normally has to be done once, maybe up to three times and then never has to be done again. The next time your pup bites at you, you take her upper lip and slide it into her mouth against her upper teeth. Do one firm squeeze and then let go. What this does is teach a puppy that when human flesh is in their mouth, they bite themselves, and it hurts. Your pup will think twice the next time she thinks about nipping you. Do NOT hold her lip against her teeth until she squeals and backs away from you, it is one firm squeeze and that is it. This is the equivalent of you biting your lip.3/20/2015 6:34:19 PM
I accidentally learned the technique of pressing the upper lip against the upper teeth when our dog was a pup. I'd say to her "That hurts. Watch those toothies." All the rest of her life, when I would say "Watch those toothies," she would tuck her upper lip under her teeth. It was so funny to see her looking as though she didn't have any upper teeth.5/14/2015 1:09:11 PM
First, all health checks need to be done on your male; including hips, elbows (by OFA), eyes and jaw. If the dog clears all the health checks, then you can put your male up to stud. However, please note that most breeders will only contact other established breeders for stud service, but you might get lucky. Good breeders want their studs certified in show with championships and/or titles in sports or obedience, so you may not be able to find a breeder whom wants to use your male. You may want to contact a couple of local breeders and ask if they would use your dog for stud if he cleared all the health checks.2/11/2015 5:38:23 PM
You are correct. Cleft's happen through bad genetic's from one or both parents. Most likely it is from the dam if different sires were used each time. As well, she started breeding her dog WAY too young and so now the dam is in danger of having serious health and hip issues as an adult dog. She should spay her Boxer a.s.a.p.1/28/2015 8:10:38 PM
Every dog has the ability to manipulate the hair along their back, on the back of their neck and at the base of their tail. It is called 'hackles'. A dog normally lifts their hackles when they are acting aggressive, excited or when they are frightened. It is to make the dog look bigger. When your Boxer is acting protective, she is trying to make herself seem bigger to ward off whatever she views as a threat.1/8/2015 11:50:51 AM

Your Boxer needs the surgery. If she doesn't use her leg, her muscles will atrophy and she will not be able to use her leg ever again, and she will be in constant pain for the rest of her life. The fact that she is walking on 3 legs already tells you that there is damage and pain, do the right thing and have your dog get the surgery. 12/28/2014 10:06:51 AM
You need more information from your vet. They should be able to confirm or deny the necessity of the surgery. Dogs are of course very capable of healing from such things on their own, but running around with a completely torn ligament sounds excessive. You also must weigh the financial cost of course. If the surgery is prohibitively expensive, then you may consider other options. No dog is worth putting your family in debt over.1/6/2015 12:46:30 AM
Surgery and don't let your boxer jump or run much . You will be surprised how much this surgery will help your boxer but you still should help her stay Calm and not let her run up and down stairs to much 1/26/2015 10:16:54 AM
We lost our 10 year old male boxer just over a month ago. We are both so lost without him. We have both decided to get another boxer, but undecided what color to go for. Lennox was a red boxer with a beautiful black mask. My husband wants to go for the exact same but I feel I could not do that because I feel I would compare him to Lennox and that would not be fair.
Also could you advise me on a boxer dog shedding, Lennox shed so much and all year round. And is dry food better than tinned please?
Thanking you in advance.
4 yrs.ago I lost my female Boxer to cancer @ age 10. I loved her so much but knew I could not be w/o a Boxer dog so w/in 3 Wks. Got another fawn w/white markings. She has turned out to be a perfect match for this 81 yr. old lady- I can take her anywhere! Don't worry about getting another that looks like your lost one-they all have their own personalities. I've had 5 & loved everyone equally!5/3/2015 1:55:17 PM
I lost my 13 year old Boxer last month. It broke my heart as I had him since he was a baby. Within 2 weeks I told my husband with tears that I needed a new baby. I was blessed to get my Crixus a beautiful male baby Boxer puppy. He looks similar to my Bruno, but personality is very different. I highly recommend getting a new Boxer. I am still saddened by my loss with Bruno but Crixus has definitely added joy in my life. 5/29/2015 5:58:59 PM
In one word: No! Your Boxer will not be alright on her own. Your dog is your pet and your responsibility. You would not leave a toddler on their own with food and water, so you should never leave your pet in that situation either. Do the responsible thing and find a boarder, friend or family member to take care of your dog. There are many different types of boarding facilities, from kennel to home-boarding one's. Friends and family are also a thing to try and see if someone can either take her for the three days, or live at your house with her, or at least go and check on her, feed her, walk her, play with her, ect. Please be a responsible pet owner and do not leave your pet alone. If your neighbors realize you are gone and call animal control, your pet can be taken away from you, you can be fined and even go to jail now with the new animal cruelty laws in place.10/15/2014 2:35:29 PM
Yes, this will be a large problem. No dog should be left that long by themselves. Pay for a boarder. What if there was a fire, or some other tragedy? Please do not leave your boxer at home.1/11/2015 4:57:17 PM

I'm sorry for your loss. Heart issues are actually quite common in the Boxer breed. Heart conditions such as Aortic Stenosis and Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (the so-called "Boxer Cardiomyopathy") are the most common. It is said that breeders that screen for heart problems can lessen the likely-hood of their stock having heart issues, but it also is up to the owner. Pushing the dog beyond it's limits as a pup, as well as over-feeding or feed a low-quality food can also lead to heart issues in the Boxer breed. On average, heart issues within the Boxer breed account for more then 20% of deaths within the U.K health survey done within the span of a year.10/1/2014 4:56:17 PM
If you plan on getting another Boxer. Please make sure that you get one from a reputable, knowledgeable, and qualified breeder. One whom does all of the needed health checks, including eyes, heart, hips, elbows and teeth. Said breeder should also be able to give you all of the health records of his/her breeding stock and pedigree so that you can see if heart issues occur in the lines or not. Contacting other puppy/dog owners as well will give you a good insight as to how the breeder operates and if heart issues have come up for any of her pups. 10/1/2014 4:58:35 PM
I got a 12 and 6 year old boxer. My 12 year old has heart disease she still runs and plays like nothing is wrong with her and believe me there is a lot wrong with her. My vet always jokes and asks me what else we are going to cross off the list what isn't wrong with her which seems a lot shorter then the what's wrong list. But she is happy and still got a quality of life. We call her the terminator because nothing will break her spirit from being a happy old boxer.1/26/2015 10:23:45 AM
The boxer breed is a family oriented breed. Doing your research on any breed of dog is vital before you go and get a dog or puppy. The Boxer breed is an active breed, so an active family is best. They are lovable dogs and enjoy being with their family all the time. If they are left alone for a long period of time each day, they can get stressed out and/or bored and can become destructive. But a tired dog, is a good dog. Remembering that, as long as you tire out your Boxer and give them lots of toys, chews and maybe even a friend to play with, he/she will be a great addition to your family.7/1/2014 12:10:08 PM
I would say about the size of a basketball roughly...1/14/2014 1:20:39 PM
About 30" in circumference. Here is a discussion of boxer owners on the subject:
http://www.boxerworld.com/forums/boxer-anatomy-physiology/82574-width-size-your-dogs-chest.html1/30/2014 1:02:46 AM
A lot of factors to figure in on a what the chest size of a boxer will be ,Imports has a bigger chest than American lines but are much more narrower in the hind quarters,Femlaes has a smaller chest than a male ,bloodlines is a big factor.5/27/2014 3:54:06 PM
there is such thing as a boxer/lab mix1/22/2014 7:33:15 PM
What exactly is your question? Is it a real dog? Well, yes, it's real. Can there be such a dog? Well, of course, there can - when a boxer mates with a lab. Are you asking if there is a breed called "boxer lab mix"? No, of course not. The word "mix" is your clue here - it's half one breed and half the other. 1/30/2014 12:09:14 AM
They are called "Boxadors". :) 6/26/2014 3:30:17 AM
I think 10 years is about average. My first female lasted about 8 years and I have a male that just turned 11. He seems really slow compared to my 5 year old.1/14/2014 1:15:14 PM
Boxers can live, on average, about 10 - 14 years. My boxer made it to eleven years. 1/14/2014 4:02:06 PM
I have two 10 yea old Boxers and both are still quite active. I pray they stay that way.2/17/2014 4:34:08 PM
I don't think it's good to lead people to believe Boxers will live to be 10 years. Of course, they can, but if you're buying dogs from a Boxer breeder that does zero health testing, one has to know that heart problems can take a very young dog, as can cancer. After breeding them for 15 years, based on the comments and stories I get from new customers, I'd say average lifespan for a Boxer is 8 years. This, of course, includes the ones that die very young, and the ones that live a very long time, which for Boxers, is 13 - 14.8/15/2014 4:51:19 PM
My 13.5 year old Boxer passed in March 2014. I was very lucky but now very alone. 10/21/2014 10:07:16 PM
My boxer, Rocky died last Sept. 22. He was 16 years old and I still miss him every day.2/23/2015 2:06:06 PM
All puppies eyes will open about 10-14 days. Though their vision is poor until about 3 1/2 weeks. You will notice the eyes will appear blue, but this a milky appearance, and this will clear up at 3 1/2 weeks.12/24/2013 1:27:13 PM
I hope you've seen a vet. My 8 yo boxer also has cancer. We've chosen to let him run his course. He's been very sick his whole life, and we felt that putting him through a surgery would only give him a short while more with us. You'll know when it's time for him to go. It's not easy, they're our kids, but you don't want him to suffer. Speak with your vet and get options from them, then decide the best course of action.7/25/2013 12:28:08 PM
i know its tough for you to have to go thru whats happening to him right now -cancer is one of the boxer breed gentic faults that some can be disposed to-theres not much you can do except make sure hes comfortable if hes haveing a seizure and make sure that he doesnt get hurt while hes haveing one-there are medications he can be put on to keep this under control- you need to discuss this with your vet-as much as we hate to make the final decision as to what an animals quality of life is-you are going to have to face makeing that decision for him sooner rather than later at this stage of his life if the seizures get out of control or his cancer gets any worse-dont let him suffer-11/27/2013 7:16:15 AM
Lost our boxer of 7 years to cancer. What we thought was strained or torn tendon ended up being a rare blood vessel cancer. The veterinary hospital with all their expertise combined had never seen a living specimen with that cancer. We had one year of spoiling her more than you can imagine, meanwhile they were able to learn about the cancer when they had to remove a second tumor. She died as they said....it ruptured and filled sac around heart??? She never felt a thing...she was sunning on the porch after chasing a squirrel....just heard a quick breath.....
My question is...do all boxers develop cancers....or highly likely to do so? I miss her so but not sure if we want to bear that heartache of cancers again. She was worth it though...1/27/2015 1:17:18 AM
Sounds like cherry eye.7/23/2013 10:15:36 AM
Have you tried allergy medicine? I have a boxer that has something similar, and it is allergies. If it gets bad enough, I get the allergy medicine at Walmart, PetSmart, any pet store, and give it to her for a week, or so. Most of the time, within a few days it clears up. I think she has some indoor, but mainly outdoor allergies. Good luck!
Has it been gradual, or all of a sudden? I could just be the pigment getting darker. I don't know what color your boxer is, but that is my guess, without seeing your puppy.9/12/2013 8:49:40 PM
about five4/4/2013 6:59:40 PM
can have 1, and can have even 15. one of my boxers had 15 puppies 2 times, the one who's got puppies now - born 9 puppies, and it's her first giving birth.8/29/2014 6:02:14 PM
I know someones boxer who had 10 puppies3/28/2015 12:29:04 AM
It could be a tumor or cancer, but I couldn't say for sure. Boxers have one of the most sesceptible to cancer. A vet would know best, though.12/14/2013 7:19:59 PM
I'm sure she could have puppies, however; I'm not sure how safe it would be for her, or how healthy the puppies would be. Dogs are a lot like humans in that way, except, they actually are fertile their entire lives. They can still have heat cycles until they die, it is just a question of how hard it will be on the female, and how healthy the puppies will be. The eggs that would be fertilized would be 7 years old, being mature for at least 6 years. Your chances of unhealthy, very small, many birth defects, and still born are quite a bit increased from when she was 2. A boxer's life expectancy is usually 8-10 years...so, if you are wanting a puppy to keep from her, I wouldn't wait. If it were me, I wouldn't breed mine at that age, but I suggest you take her to your vet and see what they say. She may be very healthy, and they would think it is fine. 9/12/2013 8:55:51 PM
My male boxer is almost 10 years old and he still pees like a girl.4/2/2013 10:35:09 PM
My male boxer is also 10 years old and pees like a girl7/29/2013 11:38:14 AM
That is a sign of a good dog. You don't want them to hike. Are they fixed? I believe in a show quality dog, that it is a mark against them if they hike.1/18/2014 12:22:46 PM

Any deaf dog wouldn't react to sudden loud noises, respond to their name (if they know it), or learn commands that are solely verbal. hope this helps. 4/25/2013 8:10:23 PM
I have a white boxer who is now 3yrs old. We realized he was deaf immediately. He is very smart and all you have to do is teach him with hand signals. If you clap your hands, whistle, or make any loud noise and he doesn't flinch or respond, then you will know he can't hear. It will be obvious. 1/18/2014 12:27:22 PM
That question is answered differently by many people. It is universally recommended to wait until at least the second heat cycle, and after they are a year old. The American Boxer Club recommends that you wait until your female is 2 or older. Boxers, as with all large breed dogs, don't age as fast as smaller breeds. They are not considered adult until they are 2. It is every breeders discretion, as to when they choose to start breeding their female, but I recommend waiting as long as you can. I didn't breed mine until she was over 2. I hope this helps. Good luck!9/12/2013 9:00:43 PM
Have you had this Boxer from a puppy, or did you adopt from a rescue/shelter? If you adopted after the boxer had already been in a home(s), I would say that he/she has been abused in the past. I'm not certain as to what to do, but you will need to build trust. When around the dog, don't make sudden movements, make sure they are purposeful, also, always talk to him/her in a very soft, sweet tone. Even if you are not talking to the dog, eg. you are getting a glass of water and the dog is sleeping on the couch, I would still talk the dog through what you are doing. Also, have a schedule, if at all possible. This will help to establish normalcy, create a routine. Once the dog feels safe, secure, and begins to trust you, his/her actions will change. It is going to take time, because whatever the reason, I would say your dog is scared and doesn't trust you or any other person. Good luck!9/12/2013 9:11:34 PM
white boxers are more vulnerable to sun burns. i know there is a sunblock out there made for dogs. i do have a question for you. is your boxer full white and white on the face and ears. i just getting a white boxer and im hoping he isn't deaf because he is white in the face and ears. how did you know he was okay?3/18/2013 2:23:58 PM
I have a 3yr old deaf boxer that is white. You will know immediately if he is deaf. He won't respond to loud noises. Also, I use baby sunblock on my boxers.1/18/2014 12:30:52 PM
Are you meaning what class are they in? If so, Boxer's are considered Working Class, by the AKC. Hope this helps. 9/12/2013 9:02:55 PM
The boxer is part of the working class under the AKC. They are descended from the now extinct German Bullenbeisser and the English Bulldog. 4/21/2014 10:20:57 AM
You can get specialty shampoo from your vet. You wet and lather the boxer, then rinse. Then lather again, and let it set for 5-20 minutes (depending on the brand, the bottle will give you directions). You also may want to check for fleas or mites. They can be sneaky, and can cause hairloss with infestation. Good luck!9/12/2013 9:05:20 PM
Mine had a terrible problem with skin rash, hair loss and scaly "elephant" skin. It was all caused by allergies that also manifested in a yeast infection. He went on anti yeast meds and I give him weekly allergy shots. His coat is now shiny and beautiful with no bald scaly patches anymore. Definitely have a vet check your dog. You'll have to work at it, but there is a solution. 1/3/2014 3:30:10 PM
It happens. I have had it happen three times. The next time they gave birth, it was usually a much larger litter.2/25/2013 9:47:34 AM
Note: We provide the only safe marketplace for Boxer breeders to list puppies for sale to rehome their purebred dogs. Breeders listing puppies for sale on Next Day Pets are required to verify their identity for your protection.

I'm becoming quite the socialite having attended two charity events in two weeks.
Last weekend it was Mardi Gras at the Onslow Memorial Hospital Foundation fundraiser; Saturday was
Both are good causes I recommend y'all support.
Since I'm not much of a player, the thing I associate with casinos even more than gambling is great food. And the Montessori event came through on that front. Some of the best restaurants in
We ate pizza, chicken wings, lasagna, crab, shrimp and much more.
Since it wasn't listed on the tickets, Michelle commented that it was too bad Golden Corral wasn't there, because the restaurant offers the best desserts. As soon as she said it, we came around the big ice-like sculpture full of cocktail shrimp to see the legendary chocolate fountain signifying the Corral was in the house.
My friend
Don't worry, my friend, I only spin my wheels in those circles; I live in the real world.
Or at least my version of it. I wrote in this column last week that I felt like James Bond during the OMH auction. I really got a chance to imagine I was 007 at the Montessori event.
I felt like a secret agent with Vegas for a backdrop: There were blackjack tables, craps and my favorite — roulette.
I used to work casino security in
The fundraiser Saturday was fun because everyone was given a lot of chips which meant we could play all night. Of course, you didn't get anything for winning (not counting extra raffle tickets), but it was extremely fun to be able to play without loosing the rent money.
Michelle's competitive nature came out and she didn't like that I was betting five chips on each spin of the wheel. The chips that had no intrinsic value suddenly became important to her.
It reminded me of the "Duck Tails" episode where Scrooge McDuck finds a island made of gold where the natives didn't value the otherwise rare metal. One of McDuck's nephews — I don't remember whether it was Huey, Dewey or Louie (I never could tell those ducks apart) — dropped a soda bottle cap. The natives soon began to argue over it since it was rarer than gold.
We ate too much and lost fake money. A perfect night.
I should point out that gambling is a real problem for a lot of people. Someone should hold a fundraiser event to help them. Don't forget my invitation!

Libraries + books +people who love to read = book discussion groups. I would guess that people have been getting together to discuss books for as long as books have been around, and millions of discussion groups meet each year even now.
The Delaware County District Library has sponsored book discussion groups for decades, and currently there are four active adult groups meeting each month at each of the library's facilities. Recently, discussion groups for children, teens and parents and children have been added to the library's program line-up, too. You can learn more about when these groups meet and what they are reading by checking delawarelibrary.org, by calling 740-362-3861 or by picking up a quarterly calendar at any library location.
As you can imagine, over the many years that the library has been holding discussion groups, we have accumulated hundreds of titles of books with many copies of each. While we have often recommended these books to customers asking for suggestions of books to discuss, it occurred to us that we should include these titles in our catalog so that anyone can find them.
We have embarked on a project to make all of the books that we have set aside as book discussion group books easily discoverable in the library's catalog. When the project is completed, you will be able to find the titles of the books as well as the number of available copies of each, and match the wide variety of those books with the needs of your particular book group. We hope to have the project finished quite soon, but in the meantime, please don't hesitate to ask us about discussion books owned by the Library. Just like you, we love to read and we love talking about books!
Did the Hersheys who founded the candy company die on the Titanic?
In 1894, Milton Snavely Hershey founded the Hershey Company, and by 1907, it had so many employees that an entire town was needed to house them all. The result, Hershey Park, included a swimming pool, a ballroom and even rides. In 1911, Hershey put a $300 deposit down on a luxurious trip on the maiden voyage of the Titanic. As luck would have it, though, Hershey found it necessary to return to the United States earlier than planned, and he and Mrs. Hershey sailed on a German luxury liner called Amerika instead. In a strange coincidence, as the Amerika made its way across the ocean, it sent a message to the Titanic, warning of large obstructions in the area where the ship eventually went down. The Last Days of the Titanic tells similar stories of many other passengers.
Who played Charlie in the original "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" and what is he doing now?
The actor who played Charlie in "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" is named Peter Ostrum, and it was his only movie. He turned down the opportunity to reprise the role in the second book in the Charlie Bucket saga (and a third, which was never written). According to Current Biography, later in life, Ostrum became a large animal veterinarian, a profession he still practices today.
What is diphtheria?
The Mayo Clinic Family Health Book notes that diphtheria is an airborne bacterial disease, usually presenting itself first in the nose and throat, but could also surface as skin lesions. A gray, fibrous material grows over airways, causing difficulty breathing and sometimes uncontrollable drooling, as well as a deep cough and chills. Diphtheria was most common during the winter months. Routine childhood immunizations have nearly erased diphtheria in the United States. According to the U.S. National Library of Medicine, there are less than five cases a year. Though it is still a problem in crowded nations with poor hygiene, diphtheria is now rarely fatal.
