The Hebron Christian Eagles (1-6; 0-1) are coming into tonight's ball game with the Rams of Immanuel (3-5; 0-1) having spent the first seven games of the season struggling on offense.
The Eagles have managed to score only as many as 20 points twice this season, going 1-1 in those games.
This week, they will be facing a three-win team, but the good news for the Eagles is that the Rams have had their struggles scoring touchdowns as well.
Immanuel opened the season with a 41-6 loss to Hatley. That was followed by a 28-14 loss to Central Academy.
They finally got three scores against Carroll Academy, but lost the game 35-21. In game four, they finally broke out of their offensive slump with a 51-point performance in a win against Calhoun Academy.
That propelled them into their first district game, against Winona. That contest did not go so well for the Rams, as they were shut out 28-0.
Back-to-back wins followed over North River Christian and Houlka, but the Rams only scored 14 in the latter of the two games.
A 46-8 loss to Heidelberg, last week, puts the Rams in a very similar spot as the Eagles. Both have had their struggles scoring points, and keeping opponents off the board. More importantly, they are both 0-1 in district play.
The two will be trying to keep their playoffs hopes alive tonight, as they face off at Steens. Kickoff will be at 7 p.m.

Are full electric cars, electronically & radiofrequency safe
by Franciscoafpb - 1/23/13 2:50 PM
hi there, unlike some, I've been living with electricity, so for instance all electrical appliances suffer electrical disruption when there's thunder storm, and I believe its even suggested to switch off all electrical appliances. Is it advisable to drive a full electrical car thru a thunder storm?
Another question related to safety is in terms of electro magnetism radiation. Are full electrical cars subjected to the same S.A.R (Specific Absorption Rate) test as cell phones are?

Interactive Problem Solving: A Social-Psychological Approach to Conflict Resolution and Its Application to the Israeli-Palestinian Case
For many years, Herbert Kelman has been engaged in the development of interactive problem solving, an unofficial third-party approach to the resolution of international and intercommunal conflicts. In his Athenaeum talk, Professor Kelman will discuss the application of this conflict resolution approach to the Arab-Israeli conflict, with special emphasis on its Israeli-Palestinian component. The lecture will explore the logic of such problem-solving workshops, which promote change in individual participants and through interaction in small groups, as a vehicle for change at the level of public policy and political culture. It will focus on the dialectics of interactive problem solving, stemming from the potential contradictions in its dual purpose: to produce changes in the individual participants and to transfer these changes to the larger political process. Illustrations will be provided from his experiences of over thirty years in work on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Herbert Kelman is the Richard Clarke Cabot Research Professor of Social Ethics at Harvard University and was Director of the Program on International Conflict Analysis and Resolution at Harvard's Weatherhead Center for International Affairs from 1993 to 2003. He received his Ph.D. in Social Psychology from Yale University in 1951. He is past president of the International Studies Association, the International Society of Political Psychology, the InterAmerican Society of Psychology, and several other professional associations. Kelman is recipient of many awards, including the Socio-Psychological Prize of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (1956), the Kurt Lewin Memorial award (1973), the American Psychological Association's Award for Distinguished Contributions to Psychology in the Public Interest (1981), the Graweineyer Award for Ideas Improving World Order (1997), and the Austrian Medal of Honor for Science and Art First Class (1998). His major publications include International Behavior: A Social-Psychological Analysis (editor; 1965), A Time to Speak: On Human Values and Social Research (1968), and Crimes of Obedience: Toward a Social Psychology of Authority and Responsibility (with V. Lee Hamilton; 1989).
Professor Kelman's Athenaeum lecture is the final lecture in the series Conflict Resolution: Intergroup and International Perspectives.
Reading from His Work
Responsible for the emergence of American confessional poetry- and an important influence on Robert Lowell and Anne Sexton- W.D. Snodgrass won the 1960 Pulitzer Prize with his first book, Heart's Needle (1959). The title is taken from an old Irish saying that "An only daughter is the needle of the heart," and it refers to his sequence of poems celebrating his encounters with his young daughter, the only child of a broken marriage. Snodgrass saw much of our domestic suffering as occurring against a backdrop of a universal suffering, and he said that one of his inspirations for Heart's Needle was Gustav Mahler's Kindertotenlieder (1904), a sequence of elegiac songs on the death of children. Snodgrass followed his astonishing first book with After Experience: Poems and Translations (1968), poems preoccupied with social and philosophical subjects as well as lyrics inspired by paintings. Snodgrass then developed a series of dramatic monologues spoken by nine men and women who died in Hitler's bunker in the last days of the Second World War. Collected as The Fuhrer Bunker: The Complete Cycle (1995), the cycle became one of the most controversial books of contemporary poetry as some accused Snodgrass of inviting sympathy for the most contemptible human beings. In fact, Snodgrass was searching for the source of evil often denied in our common humanity.
Born in Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania, Snodgrass was educated at Geneva College and the University of Iowa and has taught at Cornell, Syracuse, and the University of Delaware. In addition to his poetry, Snodgrass has also published remarkable volumes of critical prose including, In Radical Pursuit: Critical Essays and Lectures (1975), To Sound Like Yourself: Essays on Poetry (2003), and De/compositions (2001), which was a finalist for the 2002 National Book Award.
W.D. Snodgrass returns to CMC as part of the series Athenaeum Encores celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum.
The Federal Budget: Friend or Foe?
One of the major national concerns of the day is the current budget deficit. Many worry that we will end up bankrupting social programs such as social security, while others say that a budget deficit is not much of a problem relative to world events. This issue is desperately in need of careful attention and a practical response.
At the center of this controversy is Douglas Holtz-Eakin. On February 4, 2003, Douglas Holtz-Eakin began his four-year term as Director of the Congressional Budget Office. He is responsible for overseeing the CBO as well as meeting with budget committees in Congress to make sure that the agency is meeting the stringent demands of the legislature. This experience, however, is not Dr. Holtz-Eakin's first experience in economic policy-making. Dr. Holtz-Eakin previously worked for 18 months as Chief Economist for the President's Council of Economic Advisers.
Dr. Holtz-Eakin is Trustee Professor of Economics at the Maxwell School, Syracuse University, where he has also served as Associate Director of the Center for Policy Research. He worked as editor of the National Tax Journal, and served on the editorial board of many publications, including Public Budgeting & Finance, Economics and Politics, and Public Works Management and Policy. Holtz-Eakin is also the coeditor of Making Work Pay: The Earned Income Tax Credit and Its Impact on America's Families (2002) and the forthcoming Public Policy and the Economics of Entrepreneurship (2004).
Please join us at the Athenaeum for what is sure to be very interesting and appropriate insight into the state that our country finds itself in today.
The Shadow University: The Betrayal of Liberty on America's Campuses
Who defends our right to free speech? Alan Kors, president of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE), argues for free speech, individual liberty, religious freedom, rights of conscience, legal equality, due process and academic freedom on all college campuses. In his lecture, Kors will describe how American students at the dawn of the 21st century are victims of a generational swindle of epic proportions. On campus after campus, students of the sixties, now in power, have moved from free speech movements to speech codes. Kors believes they have also moved from racial integration to racial separatism, from treating students as young adults to treating students as children, and from struggles against mandatory chapel to struggles for mandatory sensitivity training on issues of "diversity." Tackling the tough questions of how and why our rights have changed, Kors will also address the costs of losing our liberty.
Professor Alan Charles Kors has been teaching European intellectual history at the University of Pennsylvania since 1968. He earned his undergraduate degree from Princeton and his M.A. and Ph.D. from Harvard. Coauthor of The Shadow University: The Betrayal of Liberty on America's Campuses (1998), he has received two awards for distinguished college teaching, and also served as editor-in-chief of the recently published Oxford Encyclopedia of the Enlightenment (4 volumes, 2002). Additional publications include Witchcraft in Europe, 400-1700: A Documentary History (1990); D'Holbach's Coterie: An Enlightenment in Paris (1976); and Atheism in France, 1650-1729: The Orthodox Sources of Disbelief (1990). The Phi Beta Kappa visiting scholar for 2003-2004, Professor Kors lecture is sponsored by Tau chapter of the honor society.
Conversation with Eric Schlosser
The publication of Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal (2001) brought Eric Schlosser international acclaim. In this shocking expose, Schlosser asserts that the fast food industry has quickened the demolition of our landscape, increased the gap between the rich and the poor, launched a new form of American cultural imperialism abroad, and fueled an epidemic of obesity, the likes of which has never been seen in this country. He makes these arguments using a brilliant combination of sardonic wit, careful reasoning, and passionate journalism. According to USA Today, "Fast Food Nation is the kind of book that you hope young people read because it demonstrates far better than any social studies class the need for government regulation, the unchecked power of multinational corporations and the importance of our everyday decisions."
Schlosser followed this success with the release of Reefer Madness: Sex, Drugs, and Cheap Labor in the American Black Market in 2003. In this work, Schlosser argues that as much as ten percent of the American economy is comprised of illegal underground enterprises. Reefer Madness focuses on pornography, marijuana, and migrant labor with hard-hitting journalism and brutal honesty.
In a very short time, Schlosser has become a very powerful name in journalism and literary circles. Before the publication of these two stunning works, Schlosser wrote for Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, and the Atlantic Monthly. He won a National Magazine Award for Reefer Madness and has received a Sidney Hillman Foundation Award for Reporting.
Eric Schlosser's visit to CMC is part of the series Crisis in the Environment funded by a grant from the Mellon Foundation and the Roberts Environmental Center at Claremont McKenna College.
Come and see what is guaranteed to be a provocative presentation at the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum. The dinner is open to CMC persons only. The lecture is open to all on a first-come basis with remote viewing in McKenna Auditorium.
Is the U.S.D.A. Dietary Pyramid a Threat to Public Health?
In many ways, you are what you eat. Unfortunately, America's expanding waistline suggests we are consuming large portions of the wrong foods, and without much exercise. In fact, two-thirds of all Americans are overweight. The epidemic of obesity is a critical public health concern and all of us are paying the price. As health insurance premiums rise, preventative nutritional medicine is vital to lowering both our cholesterol and medical co-payments.
Yet the government is still not doing its part to encourage healthy eating. Dr. Walter Willett, Professor of Epidemiology and Nutrition, and Chairman of the Department of Nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health, points out that the Food Guide Pyramid was created using questionable scientific data and has not been modified since its inception. Dr. Willett will share his groundbreaking research and present an updated dietary pyramid that has already proven to be nearly twice as effective in reducing risk for major chronic disease.
He grew up in Madison, Wisconsin, studied food science at Michigan State, and graduated from the University of Michigan Medical School before obtaining a Doctorate in Public Health from Harvard. Dr. Willett has focused much of his work over the last 25 years on the development of methods to study the effects of diet on the occurrence of major diseases. He also lectures at Harvard Medical School.
In addition to publishing over 800 articles, primarily on lifestyle risk factors for heart disease and cancer, Dr. Willett's recent book for the general public, Eat, Drink and Be Healthy: The Harvard Medical School Guide to Healthy Eating (2001) has appeared on most major best seller lists. Dr. Walter Willett's lecture is sponsored by the Athenaeum and Health Education Outreach, with a grant from the Meatless Monday organization, a public health campaign to lower the average American's saturated fat intake by 15% by 2010.
The Country Under My Skin: A Memoir of Love and War
"I had exposed myself to bullets, death; I had smuggled weapons, given speeches, received awards, had children - so many things, but a life without men, without love, was alien to me," writes Gioconda Belli in her memoir, The Country Under My Skin: A Memoir of Love and War (2002). The ground-breaking Nicaraguan poet and novelist will share a first-hand account of her experiences in the Sandanista revolution in her evening address at the Athenaeum.
Belli's intriguing story details her escape from a stifling, upper-class marriage into the world of poetry and sexual fulfillment through a unique blend of political and personal history. With the Sandinista overthrow of Anastasio Somoza in 1979 that ended his 45 year dictatorship, Nicaragua entered a new political phase working toward a new model of libertarian socialism. A passionate rebel who held many positions in the Sandinista government, Belli emerged as both a liberated woman and a prisoner of love. Entangled by her affair with revolutionary leader Modesto and frustrated by the cult of machismo keeping women from the revolution's inner circle, she now shares those contradictions of female freedom. Throughout the 1980's Gioconda Belli traveled extensively as a spokesperson for the Sandinistas in an effort to urge revolutionary leaders such as Fidel Castro to support the Nicaraguan revolution. Both her experiences and her ability to express such a complicated history in prose and verse are unparalleled.
Gioconda Belli's publications include the following novels: The Inhabited Woman (1989), Sofia de los Presagios (1998), and Waslala (1998). Her books of poetry include Linea de fuego/Line of Fire (1978), From Eve's Rib (1987), and other collections of poetry. Her memoir The Country Under My Skin was selected as one of the best books of the year 2002 by the Los Angeles Times and nominated for the Los Angeles Times Book Award in 2003. Gioconda Belli resides in Santa Monica, California, and Managua, Nicaragua.
Mrs. Belli's lecture is sponsored by the Department of Modern Languages, the Dean of Faculty at CMC, and the Athenaeum.
Genocide as Leitmotif of the 20th Century: Rhetoric and Responsibility
Historian Omer Bartov has made major contributions to our understanding of the Holocaust and other genocides. In his recent book, Germany's War and the Holocaust: Disputed Histories (2003), he addresses some of the paradigmatic interpretations of the Holocaust and its aftermath- specifically, the changing American, European, and Israeli discourses, and Germany's view of its own victimhood. As Bartov remarks in the Introduction to this volume, "The confrontation with ... catastrophe can help us understand the roots and nature of this century's destructive urges, as well as humanity's extraordinary recuperative capacities; but it can also legitimize the perpetuation of violence and aggression."
In his Athenaeum lecture, Bartov will amplify these themes by exploring the relationship between extreme violence, including genocide, and scholarship. Bartov argues that the scholarly profession has been complicit in preparing the mindset, providing the rationale, and supplying the know-how and personnel for the perpetration of state-directed mass violence. He asserts that scholarship cannot analyze and explicate modern extreme violence without revising its own paradigms of research and interpretation, and contends that the very notion of objective analysis is undermined when confronting events in which the norms and conventions of ordinary existence are shattered. He will conclude with some reflections upon the reactions of the scholarly community to international terrorism.
Omer Bartov is the John P. Birkelund Distinguished Professor of European History at Brown University. His numerous books on Germany, France, the Holocaust, and representations of war and genocide- which include Hitler's Army: Soldiers, Nazis, and War in the Third Reich (1992); Mirrors of Destruction: War, Genocide, and Modern Identity (2000); and (with Phyllis Mack) In God's Name: Genocide and Religion in the Twentieth Century (2001)- have been translated into several languages. Professor Bartov's lecture is jointly sponsored by CMC's Center for the Study of the Holocaust, Genocide, and Human Rights and the Gould Center for Humanistic Studies.
Weapons of Mass Destruction: Can We Change Our Fate?
11:45 a.m. lunch 12:15 p.m. lecture
The technology, equipment, and materials to produce biological, chemical, nuclear, radiological, and advanced conventional weapons have spread widely, so much so that such weapons could fall into the hands of terrorists. What are the real dangers posed by such weapons? What is being done to reduce the risks? Can we avoid disaster? The Honorable Ronald F. Lehman II will discuss these issues in his presentation.
Dr. Lehman is the Director of the Center for Global Security Research at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and also is the Chairman of the Governing Board of the International Science and Technology Center (ISTC), an inter-governmental organization headquartered in Moscow. He serves on the U.S. Department of Defense Threat Reduction Advisory Committee (TRAC). Previously, Dr. Lehman was Director of the U.S. Arms Control and Disarmament Agency from 1989 to 1993. He served in the Defense Department as Assistant Secretary for International Security Policy, in the State Department as Ambassador and U.S. Chief Negotiator on Strategic Offensive Arms (START I), and in the White House as Deputy Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs. He also served on the National Security Council staff as a Senior Director, in the Pentagon as Deputy Assistant Secretary, and on the Senior Professional Staff of the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee.
Dr. Lehman's other responsibilities included- Co-chair for the Joint Russian-American Steering Committee on the Implementation of the Agreement signed between the Governments of the Russian Federation and the United States on Implementation of the Nuclear Cities Initiative, Member of the Defense Science Board Task Forces on Globalization and Security, Member of the National Space Council and the Export Administration Review Board, Head of the U.S. Delegations to the Fourth Review Conference of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and the Third Review Conference of the Biological Weapons Convention, Deputy Head of the Delegation for the Paris signing of the Chemical Weapons Convention, and Senior Advisor to the U.S. Delegation to the United Nations Special Session on Disarmament.
Ron Lehman received his B.A. from Claremont McKenna College in 1968 and his Ph.D. from the Claremont Graduate University in 1975. He is currently Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Keck Center for International and Strategic Studies at Claremont McKenna College and a member of the Board of Trustees of the World Affairs Council of Northern California.
Dr. Lehman's visit to CMC is sponsored by the Keck Center for International and Strategic Studies.
Lunch is served at 11:45 a.m. The lecture begins at 12:15 p.m.
McKenna Lecture on International Trade and Economics
Should We Worry about Deflation?
Dr. Willem Buiter, one of the most prominent names in economics today, currently serves as Chief Economist and Special Counsellor to the President, European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD). When the Soviet Union collapsed and communism was crumbling in central and eastern Europe, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development was to give support to nurture a new private sector in a democratic environment. Today the EBRD uses the tools of investment to help build market economies and democracies in 27 countries from central Europe to central Asia.
In addition to this distinguished position, Buiter has taught at some of the finest universities in the United States and abroad, including the University of Cambridge, Yale University, University of Amsterdam and the University of Bristol. He also held the important distinction of being a member of the Monetary Policy Committee of the Bank of England. Some of his chief research interests are central bank independence, globalization, and European economic and political integration.
Willem Buiter is the author of scores of journal articles, as well as several books. He currently serves on the Editorial Board of the Journal of Restructuring Finance and the Journal of International Economics and Economic Policy.

Lost in Shangri-La LP: A True Story of Survival, Adventure, and the Most Incredible Rescue Mission of World War II
Lost in Shangri-La LP: A True Story of Survival, Adventure, and the Most Incredible Rescue Mission of World War II (Paperback)
Indie Next ListMay 2011
May 13, 1945. Twenty-four U.S. soldiers stationed in Dutch New Guinea pack into a C-47 for a sightseeing trip over a lush, mysterious, newly discovered valley. Unable to navigate the dense tropical clouds and steep mountain faces, the pilot crashes the plane deep in uncharted jungle. Only three injured passengers, including a WAC, survive. How they attempt to save themselves while caught between Japanese troops and hostile headhunters, what happens when they encounter a Stone Age tribe that had never seen white men or women, and how they are finally rescued is at the heart of this amazing true story. -- Lisa Howorth, Square Books, Oxford, MS
In 1945, twenty-four American servicemen and women boarded a plane to see Shangri-La, a beautiful valley deep within Dutch New Guinea. But when the plane crashed, only three pulled through to battle for survival.
Emotionally devastated and badly injured, the trio faced certain death. Caught between spear-carrying tribesmen and enemy Japanese, they trekked down the jungle-covered mountainside and straight into superstitious natives rumored to be cannibals.
Drawn from interviews, Army documents, photos, diaries, and original film footage, Lost in Shangri-La recounts this true-life adventure for the first time. Mitchell Zuckoff reveals how the trio traversed the jungle; how brave Filipino-American paratroopers risked their lives to save the survivors; how a native leader protected the Americans; and how a cowboy colonel attempted an untried rescue mission to get them out.
A riveting work of nonfiction that brings to life an odyssey at times terrifying, enlightening, and comic, Lost in Shangri-La is a thrill ride from beginning to end.
About the Author
Mitchell Zuckoff's honors include the 2000 Distinguished Writing Award from the American Society of Newspaper Editors. His book Choosing Naia: A Family's Journey was a Boston Globe bestseller and won the Christopher Award.

I retired from the Army of 21 years and I love to study and visit Civil / Revolutionary War Battlefields and visit the generals grave sites who served during those periods. Thanks to Find a Grave I am able to plan my trips accordingly. As the National Chaplain for the Disabled American Veterans 1.2 million member organization, I like helping those who cannot visit their family members in person by taking pictures for them in the area in which I live. I post veteran memorials on Find a Grave to pay tribute to their service, a way of honoring them for the sacrifice made to this country. If you have more information to post to a memorial I have created, send it to me and I'll add it or I'll transfer the memorial page. Photos taken by me for Find a Grave may be considered public domain and you are most welcome to use them.

Hi Mike
Long time no talk-
Ancestry has notified me, that through my DNA Obediah Pierce in Jefferson Rev Cemetery- is my ancestor. I can not see it, unless I have to rule out someone I have proved IS my ancestor- and we all know DNA knows, just not sure Ancestry has it right! Especially since from I understand, it only proves my female ancestors.
But since they say he is mine, I am researching him--- SO may I use your Pictures? I have gotten permission many times in the past- so I know it is OK, but just thought I would update my blanket permission!! Thanks, Gerry

Two's a couple, three's a family!
Monday - 11/26/2012, 2:00am EST
Although I have no scientific data to back this up, my feeling is that the percentage of people — federal or private sector — who like/appreciate their health plan is about the same as those of us who are happy that they are going bald, developing a paunch or have visible purplish bags under their eyes.
Although the Federal Employee Health Benefits Program is the envy of the nonfederal nation, many government workers and retirees think the plans don't cover enough (as in dental) and cost too much.
One of the most common complaints about the FEHBP is that it offers just two options: Self-only or family. In the government, as with many (maybe most) other company-sponsored health programs, a family is two or more people. Period. Whether a couple has one child or 26 children, that is defined as a family. Family premiums (but not out-of-pocket costs) are the same regardless of the size of the family. A lot of couples without kids say it is wrong to charge them family premiums.
Many feds and retirees think it is unfair, and stupid, that the government doesn't offer another option: Self plus-one. Retiree Richard T. Wagner is one of many. He says:
"I (and others I know) would like to see a health-insurance plan offered that is for the insured plus one, like the vision and dental plans offer. My family consists of me and my wife. We don't have children in the house. This plan would be great for us and a lot of other retirees.But it turns out there are other reasons. We put the question to David Snell, director of retirement benefits for the National Active and Retired Federal Employees. I recalled asking him about this before. My recollection is that he said it had been studied and considered many times, and each time it was decided that it would adversely impact the entire FEHBP — and premiums — if there was a self-plus (two-person) option.
I realize the insurance companies don't like that idea because they are making a mint off of us, when we have to go with a family plan.
Here's his response:
We've had this question before and your memory serves you correctly. First, the FEHBP law would have to be amended to provide for a Self Plus One enrollment as an enrollment option for health plans. The federal dental and vision plans allow such an option mainly because the enrollee pays the entire premium — there is no government share. As you recall correctly, such an enrollment category would probably be most populated by the older retirees in the program who are very expensive to cover now. Such adverse selection would more than likely cause premiums to increase at a higher rate than the current family enrollment, where the risks are spread out over the entire federal population including the younger, healthier and therefore cheaper-to-cover pool of enrollees."
So don't look for a self-plus option anytime in the future.

OPM survey: Tight budgets,
pay freeze 'taking toll' on employee satisfaction
Employee satisfaction across the federal government is sagging, according to the 2012 Employee Viewpoint Survey released by the Office of Personnel Management Wednesday. While there weren't any drastic drops, scores governmentwide were down in every major measure, including employees' satisfaction with their jobs, supervisors and pay.
Werfel: Gov't avoids $47B in overpayments
The federal government avoided making $47 billion in overpayments over the last three years. In addition, the governmentwide error rate dropped from a high 5.4 percent in Fiscal Year 2009 to 4.3 percent in FY2012. Adding in the number of improper payments avoided during the same three-year period by the Department of Defense in commercial contracts, the overpayment savings rise to $70 billion and the governmentwide error rate sinks to 3.7 percent.

Romantic and Lovely Invitations
I truly love my personalized dramatic rose invitations. We ordered 1 sample first, and made a few minor changes before ordering a full package of invitations. I was able to use one of our black and white engagement photos and personalized the invitation colours to our wedding colours (i.e. multiple reds). So romantic! They brought my mother to tears. The card stock is a good thickness, with a linen texture and subtle glossiness. We ordered the pocket invitation, the RSVP card with envelopes (and faced the stamped envelopes outward in the pocket to display a personalized postage stamp we had purchased), the thick vellum band, and round seals. Shipping was timely to Toronto, Canada and the invitations arrived in a lovely box. I am happy with every aspect of the invitations.
Perfect invitation
The invitations came out better that I ever could have imagined. The quality of the paper was better than most people thought we would get. We played around a lot with the layout of the RSVP card, and that came out perfect. We decided to do RSVP envelopes rather than it be a postcard, and we were concerned that the envelopes wouldn't fit into the pocket. Thankfully we were wrong, and theres plenty of room in the pocket for the envelope, rsvp card, and the enclosure/guest information card. I'm still impressed by how easy it was to do everything!
Excellent Product
It matched my save the dates perfectly. It was nice hard stock paper which made it feel like a quality product. I was able to write whatever I wanted on the invitation. I would definitely order from Magnet street again and can't wait to send these out.
These invites are worth the money!! Very Beautiful...

DSM-5 might look like a massive scholarly tome (which it is), but this new edition of the standard diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders was destined to be headline grabber long before its publication. In fact, for years professionals and parents have been debating what the first DSM revision since 2000 would be like, and rumors and leaks about its new contents have circulating since late last year. Hoopla aside, this user-friendly provides clear, current criteria for diagnosing mental disorders aimed at helping doctors and caregiver improve both diagnosis and clinical care. A classic; born to controversy.

ASHLAND, Ky. — Reality television often feels less realistic than actual life, but two Kentucky residents are feeling the very real consequences of allegedly partaking in illegal activities on a recent episode of an MTV show.
Cortney J. Howard, 26 of Grayson, Ky., and David Robert Nickell, 33 of Sandy Hook, Ky., were both arrested on drug charges by the Kentucky State Police Friday.
The KSP's arrests of the pair came after they were featured in an episode of MTV's reality televsion show True Life. The episode was titled, "I'm Addicted to Pills."
According to a release by the KSP, the Carter County Attorney's Office contacted the KSP on Dec. 10 and advised of the airing of the episode.
The Carter County Attorney's Office advised the episode had aired on Dec. 9 and captured numerous violations of law. The KSP, with the assistance of The Carter County Attorney's Office, began an investigation into the criminal activity shown on camera.
During the episode, the KSP and Carter County Attorney's Office assert that individuals engaged in trafficking and possession of controlled substances and also place juveniles in unsafe positions. After investigation, arrest warrants were obtained for Howard and Nickell.
On Dec. 20, Howard was arrested lodged in the Carter County Detention Center and charged with possession of a controlled substance, endangering the welfare of a minor and theft by unlawful taking.
The same day, Nickell was arrested and charged with trafficking in a controlled substance. He was also lodged in the Carter County Detention Center.
The investigation is ongoing by Detective Jeff Kelley and additional charges are pending.

BEAUFORT — It was up to the big boys to decide the top playoff seed from the Coastal Plains 1-A Conference, and Southwest's heavyweight Grant Raynor didn't disappoint.
Raynor pinned Dixon's Lex Padgett in 2:33 in the heavyweight final of the
The pairings will be released Monday.
"I was pretty nervous, but I just went out there," Raynor said. "It (playoff seed) was on my mind because they (teammates) kept bugging me about it."
Now the rest of the Southwest grapplers can congratulate Raynor, a junior, for his victory that gave the Stallions their second straight
Southwest (12-19) and Dixon (21-5) shared the conference title this season after the Stallions defeated the Bulldogs 34-30 on Jan. 18, only to see Dixon defeat Southwest 33-30 on Feb. 2.
The top dual-team playoff seed between the two squads then came down to the team that finished higher in the conference tournament held at East Carteret High.
"It's a great accomplishment to overcome Dixon because Dixon is a great team and it's a big rivalry between us. Always has been and always will be," said Southwest's Nick Cameron, who won the 120-pound title. "I feel like this win right here is really going to motivate us going into the playoffs.
"We actually came in here thinking about it as individuals, but also thinking about it as a team. Last weekend, when we lost to Dixon in the conference duals, it really gave us motivation to work hard. We came in with a team mentality… and we all came together and did our part."
Dixon had 11 wrestlers in the finals and Southwest nine. Yet the difference was the Stallions claiming individual titles in eight weight classes, compared to three for the Bulldogs. Southwest also had three third-place finishes, compared to Dixon's two.
The Bulldogs led 148-143 at the start of the finals and consolation finals.
"Obviously going into heavyweight, that was the clincher. We win that that one, we win the whole thing, and we lose that, we come in second," Dixon coach Dal Tomlinson said. "But you go through the matches and probably four matches in there (were a difference).
"Obviously I think Southwest has been working on ways to counter some of the things we do. They did a great job. It's just the way it rolled."
As it turned out, things rolled in the Stallions' favor, thanks to Raynor, who said he wrestled Padgett three previous times this season.
"The first time he beat me by points, the second time he pinned me and the third time I beat him by points," Raynor said. "I did what my coaches taught me last week, how to defend against head and arm and how to block when I'm on the bottom."
Dempsey was proud of Raynor for following the game plan.
"Some of the things he did in the match, we specifically went over and worked on," Dempsey said. "Walking through with him and showing him some of the moves and some things we've seen last time that he didn't do and some things the kid tries to do last time that almost got him.
"He did a great job of defending it as well as getting into position. It was almost textbook of what we did in practice."
Still, Raynor's win wasn't the only key victory for Southwest. Cameron's 1-0 win over Dixon's Tyler Bradley at 120 was also big.
"Bradley, he's a tough kid and I had never wrestled him before," Cameron said. "On his feet he's real good, but I felt like I had the upper hand on the defensive part. The fact that I was able to hold him down and he wasn't able to hold me down really did me justice."
Other champions from Southwest were John Bandavanis (106), Deonte Whitfield (126), Joby Armenta (132), Lance Armenta (138), Zack Winegardner (160) and Markus Humphries (182).
"We stressed the importance to our guys about pinning when we could and getting major decisions worth one bonus point," Dempsey said. "We knew how tight it was going to be between us and Dixon. All those points added up."
Dixon's champions were Josh Thomas (113), Eric Merritt (152) and Seth Schoonover (170).
Schoonover rallied for a pin with 37 seconds left in the match after he faced a 5-0 deficit in the third period. He trailed 5-2 when he recorded the pin.
"I'll be honest with you, I was a little worried in the first period," Tomlinson said. "But Seth is in really good shape as far as his conditioning and so I didn't think the third period would be a problem. I have been telling him all week that's what's going to win matches in the regionals."
Schoonover said he wasn't worried, despite being down against East Carteret's Matthew Chilton.
"I've had a lot of matches like that and I've pulled out a lot of wins that way. I've been down 8-0, 9-0 and I've pulled out a win," Schoonover said. "He got me in a move at the beginning and it took some life out of me because that's a move I run. It was a head and arm and he got it on me.
"But I knew once I got in the third period that I was in good shape and I knew it (a rally) was going to happen. I just had to let it develop."
And then Schoonover made his move.
"I was doing, we call it a Dixon, where you gotta under hook," Schoonover said. "I saw his back, right leg was up and I did the under hook. I saw his back inch by inch go slowly down."
But while Schoonover won, the day still belong to Southwest, the CPC tournament champion and the league's top playoff seed.
"It's big for us simply because, looking at the bracket, the No. 1 seed gets a wildcard in the first round, it looks like," Dempsey said, "Whereas the No. 2 looks like it may have to travel and will be in a tougher bracket. We won't be in an easier bracket, but it's a better chance to at least advance."

Chairman Robeson called the meeting of the Transportation & Circulation to order at 4:00 p.m.
Vice-Chairman Nowels made corrections to page 6, paragraphs 3 and 6, wherein her comments indicating she was offended should have read concerned. Commissioner Olmsted corrected the spelling of Gregory Diamond to Gregory Dyment. There being no other changes or corrections, Commissioner Hardwick motioned to ACCEPT the Minutes of June 7, 2004, as corrected. Commissioner Cochran seconded the motion, which was approved unanimously.
Mr. Miller presented staffs report and reviewed the Fullerton Municipal Code regarding requirements for on-street overnight parking. Staff recommended approval of the request based on the current single-family R-1 zoning.
Commissioner Olmsted asked for clarification of how deficient parking is determined under zoning regulations. Mr. Miller stated that the homes in this area are built with single-car garages and a breezeway. Since an enclosed two-car garage is the basis of current zoning, these homes would be considered parking deficient.
The hearing was opened for public comment.
Ms. Jan Leight, 716 West Avenue, stated her opposition to removal of the overnight parking restriction. Parking is available, the street is maintained, and she favors the current restriction.
Mr. Larry Dumagat, 725 West Avenue, stated he has seven cars and six drivers. Parking is available for six cars on his property, leaving one to be parked on the street. Considering it to be an intrusion, he is unable to ACCEPT an offer from his neighbor to park his extra vehicle in her driveway.
There was no one to further address this item, so the public comment section was closed.
Commissioner Olmsted considers this neighborhood as only borderline deficient and has concerns about future requests for overnight parking in this general vicinity based on like circumstances. He is opposed to this request.
Commissioner Cochran stated the area appears to fit the definition of deficient, but four cars can be parked off the street. He is also opposed to staffs recommendation.
Chairman Robeson concurred and further commented that the City Council would deny this request.
Commissioner Cochran motioned to DENY staffs recommendation to remove the overnight parking restrictions on both sides of West Avenue between Adams Avenue and Washington Avenue; and on both sides of Adams Avenue between Elm Avenue and Maplewood Avenue. Vice-Chairman Nowels seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
Don Hoppe, Director of Engineering, advised an appeal to the City Council is possible for a processing fee of $140.
Mr. Miller presented staffs report. Observations noted by staff indicate that vehicles overhang the sidewalk, which is illegal. There are a number of exemptions in this area, and staff requested the Commissions concurrence with the request.
To clarify whether a garage is built for one or two cars, Director Hoppe advised that a minimum width of 20 feet is the criteria for a two-car garage. The garages in this vicinity are approximately 14-15 feet wide and would be considered single-car garages.
Chairman Robeson opened the hearing to public comment.
Rudy Bravo, 901 South Cedar Avenue, requested this exemption from overnight parking between Cedar and Courtney on Cherry. He uses his garage for a car and motorcycle; the driveway is seven feet; he has received 8 tickets; cars vandalized when parked on the grass; there are a number of seniors in the area who are forced to walk around a car parked in the driveway.
The public comment segment was closed.
Commissioner Hardwick motioned to APPROVE staffs recommendation to remove the overnight parking restrictions on both sides of Cherry Avenue from Courtney Avenue to Cedar Avenue. Vice-Chairman Nowels seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
Mr. Miller introduced Sabrina Rodriquez who translated on behalf of the petitioner. Mr. Miller then presented a brief background related to the request, and staffs report supporting its recommended denial.
Commissioner Hardwick asked Mr. Miller to verify that there are actually two separate issues: obstruction by vehicles in the alley which jeopardizes emergency services response time, and some designated parking areas carports and garages being used for other purposes causing vehicles to block entrances and exits. He further wanted to clarify it is staffs opinion that with enforcement, the situation would be better controlled. Mr. Miller concurred.
Commissioner Olmsted asked Code Enforcement Officer, Tom Fulton, what constitutes a code enforcement violation. Officer Fulton responded that a violation occurs when a garage is used for storage of items other than a vehicle or it has been converted for use other than parking of a vehicle, i.e., living quarters.
Mr. Fulton further advised that Code Enforcement inspected 21 properties with 40 garages. Fifteen had no violations, 5 garages require storage removal, 1 was converted into living quarters, and 1 is locked and inaccessible. The problem, consequently, is the use of the garages for other than vehicle parking, plus the fact that there is overcrowding and a need for additional parking.
Staff clarified that there is currently overnight parking allowed on both sides of Valencia Drive, the south side of Truslow, and both sides of Pomona Avenue.
Chairman Robeson opened the hearing for public comment.
George Merino, owner of 210 West Truslow, stated that when he purchased the property in 1991, parking was permitted in the alley, and his tenants could not park in their garages because of vendors, mariachis, people working on cars, etc. He and another property owner petitioned and obtained the current no parking restriction at that time. Things have been working well since the alley was posted for No Parking. If the No Parking signs are removed, the alley would revert to previous conditions as a barrio.
Jose Dominquez has resided at 404 South Highland for over 40 years. There have been many changes as a result of the construction on Highland. He used to be able to park with no problem both on the street and in the alley, but now there are No Parking Anytime signs posted everywhere that he was able to park. Where should they park?
Mr. Dominquez does have a garage, but it is very old and he is unable to park in it.
Ms. Bailes, owner of 224 and 224-1/2 West Truslow, stated she was unaware that there was no parking allowed since there were no signs. She is not in favor of removing no parking signs.
The hearing was closed to public comment.
In response to Commissioner Cochrans inquiry, Battalion Chief Terry Stringham advised that a fire engine is 8 feet wide, but requires a 20-foot width per code in order to operate its equipment. A ladder truck is 62 feet long and turning access must not be restricted.
Vice-Chairman Nowels suggested to Mr. Dominquez that he contact his landlord and recommend that the garage be repaired so that it can be used.
Commissioner Hardwick motioned to APPROVE staffs recommendation to deny the request to remove the existing No Parking Anytime restriction in the east/west alley north of Valencia Drive between Highland Avenue and Malden Avenue. Commissioner Olmsted seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
Chairman Robeson advised Mr. Dominquez that he does have the option to appeal his request to the City Council. The appeal fee is $140. Commissioner Cochran thanked Ms. Rodriquez for her translation.
Mr. Miller presented staffs report and recommended approval of the request to install a one-way stop on Garnet Lane at Sapphire Road, which was received from the Yorba Linda Unified School District (YLUSD); and to also APPROVE staffs recommendation for the installation of one-way stops at other locations in this same vicinity. Although Topaz Lane School is all within Fullerton city limits, it belongs to the Yorba Linda school district.
There was no one to address the public comment segment of the hearing.
Commissioner Hardwick supported the requests but was leery to post signs without enforcement. Staffs opinion is that the children are the main concern and that signs will be observed.
Commissioner Olmsted motioned to APPROVE staffs recommendations to install a one-way stop on Garnet Lane at Sapphire Road and one-way stops at select locations in the immediate area of Garnet Lane and Sapphire Road. Commissioner Hardwick seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
Mr. Miller presented staffs report. The City has worked closely with the developer and the school district to design the school in an effort to accommodate busing and the student drop-off location. It is the intent to have these streets signed prior to the beginning of school in September.
Commissioner Olmsted asked where students would be dropped off since no stopping is allowed on the west side of Starbuck. Mr. Miller responded that there is a drop-off/pick-up zone on Northam Drive on the north side of the school. This area will not, however, be posted.
Chairman Robeson opened the hearing for public comment. No one was present to address this item, so the public comment segment was closed.
Commissioner Hardwick motioned to APPROVE staffs recommendation to install No Parking-Student Loading/Unloading on the north side of Hetebrink Street and the east side of Starbuck Street within the school turnouts; and No Stopping on the west side of Starbuck Street between Hetebrink Street and Northam Drive. Commissioner Cochran seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
Mr. Miller presented staffs report. The No Stopping signs will be posted in these locations, but not in front of the residential properties. The issue for concern was cars marked for sale being left on the street for indefinite periods of time. Fullerton has an ordinance against the sale of cars on public streets; however, recent court action has determined that an individual cannot be cited for advertising a car for sale as it is an act of freedom of speech.
Mr. Miller reminded the Commission that Orangethorpe has been posted for No Parking, consequently forcing truckers and those who want to sell their cars onto the frontage roads. The truck situation has been resolved by posting vehicle weight limits. Posting No Stopping Anytime will hopefully alleviate the extended parking of automobiles for sale on the frontage road from Gilbert Street to just east of Cedar Avenue.
Chairman Robeson opened the hearing for public comment.
Mr. Carl Borris, 2013 Woodcrest Avenue, stated his concerns regarding several cars being parked and marked for sale, all having the same telephone number. He reported this to the police and was subsequently advised by a City Council member that because of budget constraints, this issue was not pursued any further. Consequently, he has requested No Stopping Anytime.
The public comment segment was closed.
Commissioner Hardwick motioned to APPROVE staffs recommendation to install No Stopping Anytime on the south side of the frontage road island south of Orangethorpe Avenue between Courtney Avenue and its easterly terminus; and on the north side of the frontage road island north of Orangethorpe Avenue between Gilbert Street and its easterly terminus. Commissioner Olmsted seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
Mr. Miller presented staffs report. After a brief discussion, and since no one was present to address this item, Chairman Robeson called for the question.
Commissioner Hardwick motioned to APPROVE staffs recommendation to remove the existing No Parking Anytime restriction on both sides of Walnut Avenue from Walnut Way to 550 feet west of Walnut Way to allow for additional on-street parking in the immediate vicinity of the Transportation Center. Vice-Chairman Nowels seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
Mr. Miller presented staffs report and indicated that the yellow and red curbs are already installed to help clear the alley. No one was present to address this item.
Commissioner Olmsted made a motion to APPROVE staffs recommendation for consideration of a request to install seventy feet of yellow curb on the north side of East Whiting Avenue from 90-feet east of Harbor Boulevard to 160-feet east of Harbor Boulevard, designating said location as a place where parking is limited to 20-minutes of continuous parking for loading/unloading between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. Commissioner Hardwick seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
Mr. Miller reported that the City Council approved the crossing guard relocation and four-way stop at Laguna Road.
Mr. Hoppe advised that an ad hoc committee will be formed to provide overview, reviews, and interviews of proposed committee and commission members. It will be responsible to provide a recommended list of candidates for each committee and commission. This ad hoc committee will be formed in September or October pending details to be included as part of the process.
No commissioner or committee member will be asked to step down. A two-term limit has also been determined by the Council; 4/5 vote to remove a commissioner or committee member; number of members will remain the same with exception of adding one member to a committee to make an odd number of members; any members over the first five will be considered members at large. Three committees will be deleted the Airport Advisory Committee, the Northwest Airport Area Corporation Committee; and Project Area No. 3 Committee (PAC3).
Commissioner Olmsted inquired about the signal at Highland/Valencia. Mr. Hoppe stated the project has been approved, including the in-pavement flashers at the school crossing; the design is nearly completed; $200,000 HUD funding has been allocated.
There was no one present to address the public comments portion of the Transportation & Circulation Commission.
The regular meeting of the Transportation & Circulation Commission was adjourned to October 4, 2004.
