Do you count the days between camping trips? Do you dream of golden roasted marshmallows? Do visions of crispy blackened sugar balls haunt your sleep? Well, my friend, there is a better way.
1 Pack of marshmallows
1 Block of chocolate; shaved, grated, chopped, (or cut into decadent slabs)
1 Packet of graham crackers, shortbread cookies, ginger snaps, (or Oreos twisted open, depending how sacrilegious you're willing to get)
Just like you would at a campfire. Skewer the marshmallows. Hover them over the grill; close, but not too close.
A temperature of 500-600 F works perfect for me. I simply rotate the marshmallows over the heat for 30 seconds or so, and I'm done.
Slide the marshmallow(s) onto your cookie surface of choice.
Add some chocolate.
Properly squish it.
And there you have it. S'mores in 30 seconds, at the end of every grilling session. Who needs camping?

Improvise as you like, pumpkin holds up well to lots of different flavors. Here's a recipe to guide you.
1 Pumpkin (per 1 lb)
2 tablespoons smoked paprika
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 crushed garlic cloves
Preheat your grill / BBQ for medium-hot, direct grilling. Cut pumpkin into 1/2 inch thick wedges . Deseed
Tip: Leave the skin on so the pumpkin slices stay together. Trim off skin before serving if you like.
Mix paprika, olive oil and garlic in a bowl with the pumpkin.
Grill the pumpkin 3-5 minutes on one side, turn and cook until tender. The pumpkin slides should be fork tender.

Ideally, try to get grass raised sausages from a local butcher, or good supermarket. Look at the ingredients, are they filled full of fillers, and preservatives? Then there is a pretty good chance they be pretty tasteless. Make sure they're uncooked, not precooked sausages too.
You can cook sausages indirectly or directly, but I think they taste best and are easiest, barbecued indirectly with the lid down.
Indirect grilling
If you were to bake sausages in the oven, you'd cook them at 350 degrees for 20 mins, and that's exactly what you'd do with a barbecue. Set up your barbecue or grill for indirect grilling, at 350 degrees. Cut the sausages between the links, and place sausages on the grid with as much flamboyance as you can muster. Close the lid, and that's it. Open it back up in about 20 mins. Exceptional grilled sausages.
Direct grilling
It's more difficult to grill sausages directly, and you do have to tend and keep turning them, but it's still pretty simple with practice.
The most common problem people have when grilling is to have the temperature too high. That normally means the sausages will burn on the outside before they cook completely in the middle. Or look great on the outside, but still pink in the middle.
Make sure you keep your sausages as far from the heat as possible and keep it turned way down. Just like the indirect method, you want to grill your sausages low and slow, turning frequently.
Whichever way you decide to cook them, it's important to regularly keep an eye on the temperature of your sausages. They need to be at 160 degrees, any higher and they start to dry out quickly. Any less and they will be undercooked.

In May, I first wrote about cooking pizza on the BBQ. This is a follow up post of sorts. Truth be told, homemade pizza on the BBQ has quickly become a family meal in our home, and our go to meal for indulgence and piggery.
Barbecuing pizza is not in any way a gimmick (something that you wouldn't normally do, but do because you just love grilling)–it produces genuinely fantastic results that are better most pizza restaurants. It's impossible to get pizza as good in your home oven.
Pizza peel – to transfer to the hot stone on the BBQ
Pizza stone
A BBQ or gas grill with a lid capable of getting to about 500 – 650 degrees, ideally 600-650
You'll also need some cornmeal to sprinkle on the pizza peel
1/2 cup warm water (110 degrees)
1 envelope instant yeast
1 1/4 cups water; at room temperature
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
7.5 ounces of fine semolina flour (1 1/2 cups) + 14.5 ounces of bread flour (2 1/2 cups), OR 22 ounces bread flour (4 cups)
1 1/2 teaspoons of salt
Ingredients for a pizza are kind of like a sandwich; whatever you have at hand, or feel like on the day. Mozzarella, pizza sauce, pepperoni, ham, pineapple, salmon, cream cheese, mushroom, onion, etc!
My three pizzas were: ham and pineapple; salmon (pre-cooked in the frying pan), red onion, and cream cheese; mushrooms, kalamata olives, and feta cheese.
Step 1. Prepare the Yeast. Add the warm water into a 2 cup measuring jug. Sprinkle the yeast and let it stand for about five minutes, or until the yeast swells.
Step 2. Add the room temp water, and olive oil, and stir.
Step 3. Whizz the flour and salt in the food processor for 10 seconds. Add the yeast mixture while the food processor is running.
Step 4. Run the food processor until the mixture combines to a ball. Continue to process the dough for another 20-25 seconds. There will be a few stray pieces of dough (as pictured).
Step 5. Dump onto a floured prep surface and hand kneed a few times to finish off. The dough should be slightly elastic. Oil a large bowl, big enough for the dough to at least double in size. Add the dough and cover with plastic wrap. Put the dough somewhere warm for 2 hours, or until the dough doubles in size. Take a break, you'll need to start preparing the BBQ and pizza toppings in about an hour.
Step 7. Prepare the toppings, and crank up the BBQ. For the sauce I've simply been using two cans of good canned tomatoes. Season them well and cook them low and slow for about 30 minutes, or until pizza sauce consistency is reached. You want all of your pizza toppings prepared and ready at hand, so cook/take out of packing/wash everything. Everything needs to be done very quickly, and you won't have time to mess around.
At about 90 mins into the dough rising, load up your coals, or start up your grill. Pop your pizza stone on the cooking grid and close the lid. You want to get your BBQ really hot, around 600-650 degrees. Great care is obviously necessary at these temps (even when opening the lid).
NB: Never put a cold pizza stone on a hot BBQ, always heat the BBQ up as you heat the stone up. Also don't leave the pizza stone on top of the pizza grid after the BBQ has cooled. Moisture can be trapped between the grid and the stone and cause your grid to rust prematurely.
Step 8. After the dough has risen. Separate the dough out in thirds. Roll or stretch one third on a prepared surface and transfer to a pizza peel sprinkled with cornmeal.
Step 9. Add your toppings
Step 10. Carefully transfer the pizza from the peel onto the pizza stone on the BBQ. Shut the lid as soon as possible and wait. Stay close to the BBQ and it wouldn't be a bad idea at all to peak after just a couple of minutes to see how it's going. It's so easy to burn and a little heart breaking to have a fantastic looking pizza with a burned bottom. Here's my ham and pineapple going on, yes I like a lot of pineapple on my Hawaiian pizzas.
Step 11. Repeat for the other two pizzas, then eat.

Planking is a great, easy way to grill; and is particularly suited to delicate foods like fish. The wood plank protects the flesh from the intensity of the flames or burners while imbuing it with delicious smokey flavors. However longer cooking meats like chicken will always pick up more smokiness since they're exposed to the smoke for much longer.
And planking isn't only for those cooking with charcoal, this technique works perfectly on gas grill as well!
You can use a variety of timber for planking, cedar isn't the only option. Apple, alder, hickory –just be sure the wood isn't treated!
Before grilling, the wood needs to be soaked it in a tub of water for at least an hour (to reduce the chance of it catching on fire). For another layer of flavor try adding a cup of juice or a splash of bourbon to the soaking water.
After soaking, put the plank on a preheated medium grill for a couple minutes on each side. You want the plank to be smoking and cracking before you put your food on it –this will make sure you get the maximum smokey flavor.
Now you're ready to cook! Brush some oil on the hot plank, and put your food directly on it. No turning needed. Be sure to keep the lid closed as much as possible since a lot of the flavor from planking comes from the smoke.
A few other notes:
Be sure to keep a spray bottle on hand while cooking on a plank. The wood can catch fire, you need to be able to quickly extinguish any flare-ups.
Even though salmon is the traditional planking food, don't limit yourself. Pretty much any fish is delicious cooked in this way. Also chicken, pork loins, vegetables. Really, anything you'd cook over an indirect heat. Marinate and season as you'd like, then cook it on the plank.
Cedar planks can be reused a number of times, as long as there is wood left. Depending on the length of cooking, I would expect around three uses. Don't forget to soak it before each use.
Be sure to remove the plank as soon as you're done cooking, otherwise the wood will just burn up. And if you're using a gas grill, it will make a big mess in your burners.
1/4 cup pineapple juice
1/3 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
3/4 cup honey
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika (Preferably hungarian paprika. Try smoked paprika for an even bigger punch. Or even smoked spicy paprika.)
1 garlic clove, minced
Freshly ground black pepper (about a teaspoon)
6 salmon filets, skinless and boneless
Freshly ground black pepper
2 cedar planks
Prepare the planks as above.
Preheat the grill, medium heat.
Put the juice, soy sauce, vinegar, lemon juice, oil, and honey in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over med-high heat. Reduce to med-low and stir in the rest of the sauce ingredients, cooking until it has reduced to and coats a spoon. About 20 minutes. Remove from the heat.
Sprinkle the salmon filets with salt and pepper
Your cedar planks should be finished soaking and be ready to put on the preheated grill. Leave them for a couple of minutes over the burners, until they start to smoke, then brush them with oil and pop the salmon filets on top. Close the lid, cook for 5 minutes, then spread a little of the sauce over the salmon. Put the lid back on and cook another 5 minutes. Apply another layer of glaze to the fish. Cook another 5 minutes or until the fish is opaque throughout.
Serve with the rest of the sauce, and enjoy.

Grilling a pizza is one of those things that I've always planned to get around to.. in the future. Maybe it was the tinge of weirdness, or additional steps required after making a pizza by hand, but I've always decided to do it a different day, or a different occasion. Procrastination aside, I finally started trying to grill pizzas over the last few weeks, and it's been a revelation. Not of divine proportions, but probably about as close as you could get from a pizza lover. The fantastic thing about cooking pizza on the grill is you can get the pizza to a much higher temperature than a conventional oven. You also get a smokey, barbecuy taste that can't be matched.
Grilling is always an imperfect science at the best of times. Getting the condition right for your particular grill or barbecue takes time. We had a few disasters here, quite a few.. 2 totally burnt pizzas, a dropped pizza (that one almost ended in tears), and a few that still tasted good but I knew could be better. So don't despair, it's worth the persistence, well worth it!
Because the pizza cooks so fast, and the heat can be very very hot, we've found you get more consistent results with a thin base and thin toppings. Feel free to experiment.
Using a gas grill: Make sure your burners are in tip top shape, and not producing any hotspots Using a charcoal bbq: Keep your coals even across the span of the pizza stone.
There are two schools of thought with grilling pizzas. One is to cook your pizza straight on the grid with an indirect heat source. The other is to use a pizza stone. Using a pizza stone tended to even out the heat a lot better, reduced the risk of burning the pizza, and of course you can compile the pizza in the kitchen rather than on the grill itself.
This recipe is great on the grill. It makes 2-3 pizzas depending on the size of your pizza and how much pizza dough is stolen. I tend to split the pizza dough in thirds, use one, and wrap the other two separately with lots of plastic wrap and store it in the fridge.
1/2 cup warm water (110 degrees)
1 envelope instant yeast
1 1/4 cups water; at room temperature
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
22 ounces bread flour
1 1/2 teaspoons of salt
1. Sprinkle yeast onto the warm water for about 5 minutes. Then add the room temperature water and olive oil.
2. Mix the flour and salt in a food processor. Pulse the food processor while adding the liquid ingredients from step 1. Process until dough comes together, and is smooth and stretchy.
3. Dump out onto a floured work surface. Kneed briefly to form a ball.
4. Put the dough into a large oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place, 1/2 to 2 hours.
This sauce is exceptionally simple, and works best with fresh tomatoes, but you could use canned.
1 lb tomatoes
1 Tbsp Olive oil
2 cloves garlic
Salt to taste
1/4 cup good bbq sauce, such as Grumpy's Goodnight Lovin'
1. Heat a saucepan over medium heat and add the Olive oil and garlic for 30 seconds, being careful not to burn it.
2. Add in the tomatoes and simmer until the tomatoes melt down and thicken, about 20 minutes
4 oz Mozzarella, shreaded or cut half inch thick
8 oz Pepperoni, peeled and thinly sliced
That's it. You could do whatever you want for a topping and sauce, but remember, be spartan: less is more, especially on the grill.
1. You want an even heat distribution over your grill. If you're using gas, turn on all burners, if charcoal, spread coals evenly across the bbq. Put the stone in when the grill is still cold, and close the lid for it to preheat (about 20 minutes depending on your grill).
2. Sprinkle semolina or cornmeal onto a pizza peel, then place your pizza dough onto the peel. If you don't have one, you might need to improvise a little.
3. Add the sauce, and toppings.
4. Take the pizza peel over to the grill and slide the pizza onto the pizza stone.
5. Cooking times vary greatly but you want to take the pizza off when the crust starts browning in spots, about 5-10 minutes. Be sure not to leave it unattended as it can go from delicious looking to a burnt mess in minutes (from experience).

Make sure your grill is super clean. Any residue will cause the fish to stick.
Preheat the grill until it is very hot before putting the fish on.
Coat the fish very thinly with oil before cooking.
After you set the fish on the hot grill, leave it there! Don't move it for at least a couple of minutes. This will give it time to sear and separate from the grill. When you do move it, wiggle it carefully and then roll it over.

Using a meat thermometer is the best way to cook the chicken to perfection. Chicken thighs should be cooked to 165 degrees Fahrenheit and chicken breast should be cooked to 160 degrees. Make sure the thermometer is inserted into the thickest part of the chicken and not touching any bones.
Brining improves the chicken's flavor making it juicy and deliciously tender. However, if you're short on time, skip this step and season the chicken generously with salt and pepper before cooking.
Important Note: Chicken that has been brined browns faster and you'll need to careful it doesn't burn.
Simple brine recipe:
Dissolve salt into water in a gallon zip-lock bag. Add chicken, remove air and seal. Refrigerate for about 1.5 hours.
Rubs give plenty of flavor without the burning risk of BBQ sauces. As much as we love BBQ sauce, and we really do… it's best applied in the last couple of minutes as a general rule.
Apply the rub generously to all the chicken pieces, try to run as much under the skin as you can.
Simple spice rub:
The sugar in BBQ sauce will cause it to burn if it's applied too early. You want to smother the chicken in the sauce during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Bush the chicken with sauce, cook for about 1 minute, turn over, brush again and cook 1 more minute. Before serving, brush the chicken with more BBQ sauce. I like to have even more sauce at the table for dipping.
You should plan on using about 1/2 cup of BBQ sauce for about 8 thighs (not including any sauce you have at the table).
This creates a delicious browned exterior while keeping the inside from over cooking.
Set up the Grill with one side on High and the other on Med-Low, or bank the coals mainly on one side for a charcoal BBQ.
Starting on the hot side of the grill, sear the chicken for 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Be very vigilant during this period, you don't want the chicken to burn, and if you get any flare ups, move the chicken to a different area of the grill.
Move the chicken pieces to the side with lower heat and finish cooking. If you're cooking chicken breast it works best to close the lid, this helps the interior cook faster, so it is done before the exterior starts to burn.

Next time you are going to cook some sausages on the BBQ, why not try hot smoking. It's really easy to do and can be mastered quickly. There are lots of different ways to do it, and you can really get creative. Â Different woods can impart a lot of different flavors. Hot smoking tend to make sausages look fantastically mouth watering and smell irresistible.
Fresh sausages are known to be tough to cook without either drying them out or under cooking them. The trick is to cook them indirectly and use an instant read thermometer to keep an eye on them.
One of the best things about a Charcoal Kettle-Style BBQ like a Weber BBQ is the ability to throw the lid on it and smoke-out your food. That's why I typically keep two BBQs on hand (figuratively), a normal gas grill, and a charcoal grill. You can still smoke on a regular gas grill though, so don't feel limited to what you see here, let your creative juices flow.
Hot smoking is best when you use an indirect heat. You can do this easily with a charcoal BBQ by moving he coals to opposite sides of the  BBQ, or by only turning only one burner on with your gas grill BBQ.
– Soak your wood chips. The amount you need is going to depend how long you intend to smoke and type of wood chips, but roughly – a couple of handfuls. They should soak for a minimum of 30 mins.
– Light the charcoal.
– Once it is hot (about 20-30 mins), split it into two piles at opposite ends of the BBQ.
The charcoal chimney we used here is recommended purely because of the way it heats the charcoal up to an even temperature. You could easily make a pile though if you don't have one handy.
– Remove the cooking grid, throw the wood chips on top of your charcoal, and replace the cooking grid. I do like to add wood chips occasionally throughout the smoking, but make sure to be generous at first, as the wood chips are most effective before the meat is fully cooked
– Put the sausages onto the middle of the cooking grid. If you put the sausages too close to the sides they will overcook.
– Close the BBQ and resist the urge to peak too often. Open the vent half-way.
– Take the sausages off the BBQ when they reach an internal temperature of 150 degrees.
– Enjoy.

Staff: Roxie Koon
I'm Roxie Koon, PR Director for AM91 The Point of Faith. I have
a lot of fun at work; I get to plan all the fun things we do as
a staff, like monthly birthday parties, Christmas parties, staff
outings, etc. The thing I love best about my job is getting to
meet you, our listeners and our ministry partners, out in the
community. I love planning our community events, when we get to
partner with our friends, such as our Good News Verse pastors,
Compa Food Ministry, Promise Keepers, Focus on the Family, our
bookstore partners, CHEC, CMC, SNIDS, Praise in the Park, Chick-Fil-A,
Francis Owens, the First Lady of Colorado, TV-41, MOPS, and many,
many more. You are all truly a blessing to me. As you can see
I love people and I love a party.
God has blessed me
beyond words. I have a wonderful husband, Jerry, and we have been
married since 1967. God has blessed us with 3 great kids and 10
WONDERFUL grandchildren. What more could anyone ask for? I have
been a Christian most of my life and I re-dedicated my life to
Jesus about 25 years ago, and I can tell you my only regret in
life is that I chose to walk away from the Lord for a few years
of my life. I am so thankful that HE is always willing to take
us back. My goal in life is to serve the Lord until HE calls me
home, to be a Godly wife, mother and grandmother, and to serve
you, our listeners. Keep us here at the Point in your prayers,
that we will always seek the Lord for our lives and for this Ministry.

Turns out Tebow can throw a little bit, too
"We kept him in the pocket for the most part and he only had a couple of runs," said Weddle. "On those runs, it was more the defense than what he was doing. But he made some plays. He's a great football player."
As noted by Weddle, not all was attributable to Tebow, as much as he's come to seem the be-all and end-all of games in which he's playing.
"We didn't finish," said Harris. "I didn't finish."
Harris was referring to one of the most important plays of the day, again resulting from a Tebow pass. On second-and-7 from the Chargers 43, with little more than a minute left in the first half of a game the Chargers led 10-0, Denver tight end Daniel Fells had possession of a catch and fumbled the ball amid several Chargers. Harris actually gained control of the ball, but had it punched out and re-claimed by the Broncos -- right before Decker caught an 18-yard TD pass from Tebow.
"I shouldn't have dropped that fumble," said Harris. "I had it right there in my hands."
After this latest loss, it could've been uttered by all of the Chargers.
Scene & Heard: Tebow Time's cheers, jeers
Chargers work OT to lose sixth straight game

In terms of employment in college, on-campus jobs are the way to go. They get you that spending money you need while keeping you up to date with campus activities. In a way, they make you feel like a great contributor to the campus and its events.
Take me, for example: I work for Terrier Vision, the crew that films the sporting events at Wofford College and streams them online. It's weird since I'm not too much of a sporty guy but filming these events gives me a sense of involvement and with that, a legitimate interest in the sports (or at least the games I'm filming). The same goes for other on-campus jobs: They connect you with slices of your campus and community you wouldn't otherwise get to be a part of. And the money isn't half bad, considering many jobs on campus will pay more than those off simply because the colleges/universities have more funds at their disposal. I meet new people and honestly have fun with my job. Plus, it's much more convenient to get to work. (Yes, WoCo is small but the principle still applies to larger schools.)
You don't have to work for sports, either (it's not my thing but the job is rad): You could just as easily work for your school's theater department in set construction or with your school's alumni foundation phoning for donations to specific programs. Many of my friends are TAs and that sounds like a rewarding experience to be able to help others on your campus in an academic setting. Jobs are available almost everywhere – you've just got to seek them out!
On-campus jobs push you to explore all aspects of your school, meet new people, engage in networking with a new set of professionals and get that extra bit of money. This kind of goes back to my previous article on keeping with your passions because a) you can help pay for your passion and b) you could get paid FOR your passion! (My incredibly talented photographer friend gets paid to photograph almost every WoCo event.) Do you work on campus? If so, where and how did you land your position?
Mike Sheffey is a junior at Wofford College double majoring in computer science and Spanish. He loves all things music and has recently taken up photography. Mike works for an on-campus sports broadcasting company as well as the music news blog PropertyOfZack.com. He hopes to use this blogging position to inform and assist others who are seeking the right college or those currently enrolled in college by providing advice on college life, both in general and specific to Wofford.

Despite having other important things to check off my to-do list, I've spent countless hours on an assortment of social media outlets. (I'm sure you've found yourself in a similar predicament.) Recently, I began using one form of social media that isn't a time waster: It's called LinkedIn and it uses social media to connect its users to employers.
A LinkedIn user will create a personal profile with a picture, a description of their work experience, the education they've received and the type of degree(s) they were awarded from their college(s). Many students, however, don't take advantage of LinkedIn, which can connect them with a number of employers who have job and internship openings. While 90 percent of students use Facebook frequently or occasionally, 46 percent of students have never used LinkedIn and those students who have don't make it a priority to use it during their job search. According to this article on readwrite.com, students searching for jobs focus their efforts, in order, on:
LinkedIn is underutilized by college students because many feel they don't have enough work experience or connections to even create a profile. Yet, students who create LinkedIn profiles have a greater chance at making connections, which can lead to jobs and internships. Do you have a LinkedIn account? If so, has it been helpful in your quest for employment?

In her free time, she focuses on her blog, loves making jewelry and spending time on Pinterest and Pose. She hopes to use this blog to guide and relate to its followers: college students like herself!

The student librarian or the math tutor in the tutoring center at your university may be one of the thousands of students involved in the Federal Work Study program.
The U.S. Department of Education explains that the Federal Work Study program involves universities assigning college students part-time jobs in their institutions or through private employers. The income may be minimum wage or higher (it depends on the work the student is doing) and the income goes toward the students' college expenses. For example, the recipient can have the funds go directly toward tuition or books.
Students can apply for the Federal Work Study program (or FWS or Work-Study) annually by filing a FAFSA. The FAFSA asks an array of questions, the answers of which determine the amount of federal financial aid the applicant can receive. Within the application, it asks the applicant if they would like to be considered for the Work-Study program.
Students may apply for work-study annually. Also, students who are in high school should ask colleges they are interested in if they have a work-study program. Work-study program is a big time commitment but it's a great way to defray the ever-growing cost of college.

Summer break is a time when college students intern, work and enjoy the warm weather. This summer, however, try building your resume with volunteer work! Many employers want applicants who have volunteer experience. Volunteering shows selflessness and dedication – two characteristics most employers look for in potential employees.
One organization is called The Hands On Network. This organization will match you with volunteer opportunities based on the location you want to volunteer in and the type of experience you want. Another option is Volunteer Match, a site that finds an array of volunteer work in your area and that complement your major or interests. Lastly, there's Idealist, which asks you for information such as the type of volunteer work, time commitment, the duration you want to volunteer and your location to find volunteer opportunities.
There are many more sites, services and organizations (including Scholarships.com) that can link you with volunteer opportunities so starting your search is easy! Volunteering can be a small commitment with an immense effect on the ones you're helping. Plus, a prospective employer will be delighted to see an applicant who dedicates their time to helping others in need.

Congratulations! Well...sort of. Many incoming college freshmen feel this bittersweet sensation when they read they've been accepted to college but not until a semester or two after their intended start date.
Colleges are adopting this practice more and more and it's no surprise why: Retention rates drop after the first year and this decrease combine with the junior year "I want to study abroad" rush leaves colleges with gaps and vacancies in classes, resulting in less money for schools. This admissions approach is economically better for colleges and universities but is it better for students? Not when they want to take classes somewhere else before that requires full-time student status and not when the students need to get jobs in the semester before they start. This could also potentially disconnect them with the incoming freshman class in the fall and put them in awkward social positions once they arrive.
I personally don't know anyone that this has happened to – the most I've encountered with friends is wait lists – but I know a few that applied to transfer to other colleges and weren't accepted for the following semester, but the next one. It's great news that the student gained admission but there's the question of "Why then and not now?" In an almost B-list manor, colleges are glad to have you but not now – only after the first wave of freshmen.
I know the bottom line is money but in my opinion, this approach devalues all of one's efforts and projects a message of self-doubt and questioning. If colleges plan to keep doing this, they need to figure a way to build the students up during that semester before entry and provide program options and support so that these kids don't feel that sense of bittersweet victory and defeat. Deals with other colleges for transfer credits, extracurricular activities, ways for these students to get ahead and job options on or off campus would be an awesome start. What else do you think schools could (and should) do to bridge this gap?

West Point is another step closer to a new set of sidewalks for Central School and Fifth Street Junior High School. The sidewalks will be funded by a $563,000 grant from Safe Routes to School (SRTS).
The national SRTS program began in 1997 as part of a campaign to reduce deaths and injuries among children walking and bicycling to school.
West Point Chief Administrative Officer Randy Jones said the new or repaired sidewalks will be on Brame Avenue, East Street, Westbrook Street, Fifth Street, Progress Street and Main Street.
"These are the primary routes for kids walking to Fifth Street Junior High and Central School," Jones said. "We focused on those schools because elementary students are too young to be walking to school, and high school students are old enough to drive."
Jones said the city originally received the grant in March 2008, but SRTS guidelines necessitated extra work in some of the areas where the sidewalks will go before the West Point Board of Selectmen can move forward with advertising for bids.
"The sidewalks have to be 60 inches wide and perfectly level," he said. "We had to do some work to be able to accommodate those standards."
Jones said there was an awning coming out of the old North Side School on Fifth Street that had to be removed to have enough right-of-way, and most of the utility poles on that side of the street had to be moved to back to make way for a new sidewalk.
He said the last set of notes the city received from SRTS concerned fences on Fifth and Progress streets that were too close to the road to provide adequate space for a sidewalk, and will need to be removed.
"We have a soft timeline, but we're working on the last set of notes now," Jones said. "We're coming down the final stretch, and when Mississippi Department of Transportation comes and inspects our work, we can start advertising bids."

I believe I was in college, over 25 years ago, when a friend pointed out to me - speaking of a passing car with the windows down - that not everybody wants to listen to your tunes. He made good sense, when I saw it from his point of view, and he was an open minded rock&roll lover. It's simply arrogant and presumptuous. On the water, even more, people value quiet. At anchorage, if the music can be heard off of your boat, it may be far too loud already. On open water, the rules are less strict, but are you a sailor or a party guy with sails?
Below, fine. Rock it with the companionway closed. I like my Bob Marley at anchor. In the cockpit, keep it cool. On deck... no, I don't think that is appropriate. You'll just come off like one of those party head-boats coming back from night fishing. Uncool.

Sounds of the game… Bruins 8, Maple Leafs 5
|12.19.08 at 9:30 am ET
The Bruins have shown they can win under all types of circumstances this season. Defensive struggles. Hard-hitting games and Thursday night, they showed they can win games that start out as blowouts and turn into shootouts. The Bruins led 5-1 after just 4 1/2 minutes into the second period when the pesky Toronto Maple Leafs collectively said, 'Not so fast.' After all was said and done, eight goals had been scored in the second period alone, with Phil Kessel collecting two. But the star of the game was David Krejci, netting his first career hat trick, including a goal in the third period that sealed the deal. The Bruins extended their home winning streak to 12 games, their longest since 1976 and the fifth-longest in team history.

Krejci said the team is rolling all four lines well right now.
Coach Claude Julien on his 22-year-old star Krejci.
Julien said the game was a classic case of bend but don't break.

regular expression library for C++
This package forms part of the Boost C++ Libraries collection.
Regular expressions are a form of pattern-matching that are often used in text processing; many users will be familiar with the Unix utilities grep, sed and awk, and the programming language perl, each of which make extensive use of regular expressions. Traditionally C++ users have been limited to the POSIX C APIs for manipulating regular expressions, and while regex does provide these APIs, they do not represent the best way to use the library. For example regex can cope with wide character strings, or search and replace operations (in a manner analogous to either sed or perl), something that traditional C libraries can not do.

Wallace Stevens, 1879-1955
Transport to Summer (1947)
This book was published before Stevens won the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize for poetry. In fact, he didn't receive much recognition for his work until his seventies. He mostly led a quiet life as a lawyer, but he wrote poems before and after work. During his life, Stevens was friends with several poets in the New York area, including William Carlos Williams, Marianne Moore, and E. E. Cummings.

Libraries, Publishers and Leading Advocates Join Open Book Alliance in Calling for Open, Transparent Settlement Process in Google Book Search Case
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 6 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Dozens of leading academic, library, consumer advocacy, organized labor and publishing organizations joined the Open Book Alliance today in calling on Google and its litigation partners to create an open and transparent process to negotiate a settlement in the Google Book Search case. The parties published an open letter to Google, the Authors Guild and the Association of American Publishers, demanding that they include key stakeholders to represent the broad range of public interests in the mass digitization of books. Google and its partners abandoned a previous settlement proposed in the case after the U.S. Department of Justice and others criticized the deal and recommended that the court reject it, but Google and the plaintiff publishers continue to negotiate behind closed doors on a revised settlement proposal.
The letter, available at
http://www.openbookalliance.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Open-Letter-Oct-6-09.pdf, states in part:
"The Department of Justice identified scores of serious problems with the proposed settlement, which cannot be fixed with simple alterations to the agreement. Other stakeholders raised even more objections, which the parties have largely ignored. In order to address these very real and very complex challenges, negotiations on this issue must involve a broad range of stakeholders in an open and transparent manner."
Joining the Open Book Alliance in calling on Google and its partners to open the process in service of the public interest are leading library associations such as the New York Library Association, the Ohio Library Council, the New Jersey Library Association, and the Special Libraries Association; publishers such as the Council of Literary and Magazine Presses and Sarabande Books; writers' representatives such as the National Writers Union/UAW Local 1981; and many others concerned that Google will unfairly monopolize the mass digitization of books, raising prices for consumers and limiting access to important literary works.
The letter signatories universally support the goal of book digitization – making books searchable, readable and downloadable. They insist, however, that Google and a few publishing groups not be permitted to be the sole controllers of this major cultural development, saying:
"Discussion and debate about the right way to digitize the world's written works must proceed through a robust process that includes input from all stakeholders, including authors, libraries, independent publishers, consumer advocates, state Attorneys General, the Justice Department, and Congress."
Google and its partners have demonstrated that they will prioritize their own narrow commercial interests over the public interest in pursuing book digitization efforts, and any revised settlement that does not include a broad range of stakeholders is destined to jeopardize consumers' and authors' rights. The Open Book Alliance and the other letter signatories today tell Google and its partners: "No more closed doors – let's do it right."

* An adult ostrich can reach up to 9 feet in height and weigh upward of 300 pounds.
* The Taj Mahal, a tomb built by Indian Mogul Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his wife, Mumtaz Mahal, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most-visited tourist attractions in the world. It wasn't always so, though; from the time of the building's completion in 1643 until the British occupied the Indian subcontinent, only Muslims were allowed onto the grounds. If any non-Muslim ventured into the forbidden Taj Mahal, he or she was put to death.
* The frigid island nation of Iceland is, by all accounts, a peaceful place. In the entire history of the country, there has been only one armed robbery.
* In 1957, famed crooner Frank Sinatra wrote for a magazine called "Western World" a piece that included the following: "My only deep sorrow is the unrelenting insistence of recording and motion picture companies upon purveying the most brutal, ugly, degenerate, vicious form of expression it has been my displeasure to hear, and naturally I'm referring to the bulk of rock 'n' roll." He goes on to call it "the martial music of every sideburned delinquent on the face of the earth."

Is 'Heeb' On Its Way Out?
Gawker says yes; editor says no
Media gossip blog Gawker has put the snarky Jewish magazine Heeb on a "deathwatch" for imminent closure. A number of anonymous sources have apparently told Gawker that the magazine is on the brink of folding. Heeb "was able to live high on the hog when there was a lot of money coming in, like around 2004," one of these anonymous tipsters told the blog. "The fact that they were wasting money went kind of unnoticed by the Jewish organizations donating to them. But the recession hit them kind of hard." Heeb's editorial director countered that Heeb wasn't "shutting down," but, Gawker noted, she initially sidestepped the question of what would happen to the flagship print magazine (rather than its website or its parties). In response to further questioning from Gawker, she replied, "We have the utmost confidence in assuring you that our Spring edition will be out no later than Rosh Hashanah," which we have to assume was a joke.
We conducted our own inquiry, with similar results. Former Heeb staffers told us they'd heard rumors of its demise but couldn't confirm them. We asked the magazine's music editor, Arye Dworken, what was going on, he maintained in an email that the gossip was just lashon hara that likely came from angry freelancers or ex-interns. "We as a magazine can't be best friends with everyone and those non-best friends love coming out of the woodwork with 'scandalous' details (i.e., yawn, who cares, so what, etc.) when the rumor mill goes back into production," he wrote. But when asked about the specific allegation that the print magazine, rather than the Heeb brand as a whole, was on its last, he dodged the question and referred it to editor in chief Josh Neuman. Neuman (who earlier told a Jewish Telegraphic Agency blog that Heeb was alive and well) responded in a short email, "Long story short: denying that we've decided to cease print."

On February 20, 2004, I made my journey to the Bridge as many of you know. Mommy still can't forget that sad day.

First, of all, I extend belated thanks to HQ for the birthday card and to my dear friend, TABATHA, for the lovely bluebird present! Mommy wasn't feeling too well (recuperating from knee surgery) and dealing with the physical pain and limitations that comes with it. All of us angels sent her many purrs to help her pull through this.

I'm a birthday girl today! Can you believe that? If I were on the earth, I'd be 19 years young which is the same age as Camille Rose! Unfortunately, I had heart problems in 2005, and was called to the Bridge at the age of 12.
BRIDGE ANNIVERSARYFebruary 20th 2011 11:16 am
[ Leave A Comment ]
On February 20, 2004 I made my journey to the Bridge before I turned 12 years old. I had what the vet believed to be congestive heart failure; he had found fluid in my lungs. I was supposed get a chest tap the next day to find out if the fluid build-up was due to my heart not functioning properly, and if that was true, Mommy was to take me to a cardiologist. God took me several hours before any of that could happen.
MY POEM REWORDED IN MEMORIAM OF ROCKY ANNFebruary 8th 2010 2:30 pm

Rocky Ann is at the Bridge with me now. I made sure to greet her and comfort her. Our Bentley, Max, and Isis joined in too, followed by Catster friends she new well, CALVIN, MILO, SIMBA, ALFIE; the list goes on and on. I stood amongst them and recited the below poem that Mommy originally wrote for me when I flew to the Bridge:

My angel on earth is HANNAH. She has included me in her "Angel Stroll" and I feel greatly honored. Thank you so much Hannah! I will be watching her family, my family, and other families in Catsterland. I also thank her for the lovely, shinning star on my page and her tribute to me in her Diary yesterday!

Hi everycat! Enjoy my old photo with a new twist. Mommy found this one not too long ago, meant to scan it in, but couldn't find it. She finally found it around Christmas time. She added a new custom made frame of honeysuckles and loaded it up a few minutes ago.

Election dispute big test for Kenya's top judge
On Tuesday, Odinga's team said it is seeking an order from Kenya's High Court to compel the election commission to produce electoral registrars and other documents used in the vote count. Odinga's team says the documents can help prove Odinga was cheated out of 1.8 million votes. It said the election commission is operating under a cloak of secrecy.
"This is a serious indictment on the integrity, ability and above all honesty of the" election commission, Education Minister Mutula Kilonzo said.
Though Mutunga has a reputation for fairness and independence, the Odinga case will present new, difficult tests in a country with a history of extra-judicial executions and unexplained disappearances. Even before Kenyans voted, a letter attributed to a violent gang circulated throughout the country warning of "dire consequences" if Kenyatta was blocked from running.
Kenyatta faces charges of crimes against humanity at The Hague-based International Criminal Court, and his eligibility to run for president was being tested in court.
"If anybody, any candidate, any party, any agency, or any other actor thinks that it will bend the ear, mind and resolve of this chief justice to do anything that is unconstitutional or illegal, then they are mistaken," Mutunga said in statement in February.
Mutunga, 65, was born into a poor family among the Kamba people of Kenya's eastern province and has degrees from universities in Kenya and Tanzania. He has taught constitutional law at the University of Nairobi. After his 1983 release from prison he went into exile in Canada, where he earned a doctorate in law at Toronto's York University.
He returned to Kenya in the early 1990s. Before being named chief justice, he had never been a judge. He has spoken out in defense of homosexuality in a deeply conservative society and is described as a proponent of "neoliberal" judicial reform. He wears a stud in his left ear, an item that became a publicly debated issue as he was named chief justice.
Out of 10 contenders for the job, Mutunga's name was the only one forwarded by the Judicial Service Commission to President Mwai Kibaki. Mutunga's appointment was approved by lawmakers in June 2011.
Gladwell Otieno of the Africa Center for Open Governance, a pro-democracy group in Nairobi, said Mutunga has been a good chief justice. She notes that he is one of only six justices, however. A seventh seat is vacant, opening the possibility of a split decision.
"Ever since he took over the judiciary public confidence has been rising steadily. It's quite high now," Otieno said. Odinga supporters "may expect him to rule in their favor... but he's not alone there and it depends on the quality of evidence they present."
Associated Press reporter Tom Odula in Nairobi, Kenya contributed to this report.

El Portal Comprehensive Cancer Center Moves to Completely New, State of the Art Facility
One of the California's most modern Cancer Centers, El Portal Comprehensive Cancer is moving to a much-anticipated new location in Merced. Their new office features a plethora of innovative, highly-effective treatments including stereotactic radiotherapy and high dose rate brachytherapy.
Merced, California (PRWEB) January 29, 2013
El Portal Comprehensive Cancer is moving to a much-anticipated new location in Merced that will better enable them to help members of the community who are suffering from cancer. Their new office features a plethora of innovative, highly-effective treatments including stereotactic radiotherapy and high dose rate brachytherapy.
Recently, they were featured on ABC's Channel 30 announcing the new modern HDR treatment in their modern Merced Cancer Center. El Portal's new location makes travelling to and from their center easier on patients. According to one of their many testimonials, they even offer transportation to and from appointments for individuals who are unable to drive.
The healing methods offered at El Portal can cut treatment for breast cancer from several weeks to five days. Patients will also be able to see several cancer treatment professionals during the same visit, including a medical oncologist and a radiation oncologist to discuss the best course of action.
"This new generation of treatment technology represents a major step in the fight against cancer," says lead oncologist Dr. Alireza Mahmoudieh. El Portal utilizes a unique team-guided approach to cancer therapy and tailors it to each patient's specific medical needs.
El Portal's stereotactic body radiotherapy uses a state-of-the-art linear accelerator that delivers highly-focused radiation with incredible accuracy, attacking cancer cells at their core. High dose rate brachytherapy is a form of internal radiation therapy which places radioactive sources inside or adjacent to the tumor. Other services offered by El Portal include a multidisciplinary breast cancer clinic, a hematology clinic, and infusion services.
For patients interested in approaching their cancer treatment without chemotherapy, El Portal also offers biologic therapy (immunotherapy). This particular type of therapy works with the patient's immune system to help it fight the cancer on its own. A full listing of their many approaches to helping patients survive cancer can be found in their website glossary. El Portal Cancer is a client of Practice Marketing Company, "DDS Strategy."
El Portal would like to ring in the New Year by offering assistance to cancer patients all over the greater Merced area. The new office is located at: 3303 M Street, Merced CA 9534

IN THE 1990s, Greenpeace famously likened the dumping of old oil platforms in the deep ocean to throwing empty beer cans into the sea. But a report published on 8 April supports claims that disused oil platforms can become havens for marine life - at least in the warm, shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico, where 3600 rigs are in place off Louisiana alone.
Paul Sammarco and Steve Kolian of the Eco-Endurance Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, argue that in the calcium-rich waters of the gulf, corals rapidly colonise the rigs which then become home to myriad fish and other creatures. "Platforms create reef habitat that would otherwise not exist over tens of thousands of square miles," they say in the report at www.towersoflife.com/ecorigs.
Regulations in the US call for old rigs to be brought ashore and dismantled, unless they are retained through a "Rigs to reefs" ...

Demi Lovato opens up about 'dark and deep' struggles with drugs, talks Miley

In October 2010, Demi Lovato withdrew from the Jonas Brothers Live in Concert tour to enter a rehab treatment facility for "physical and emotional issues." She left the center in January 2011 and has since dedicated her career to serving as a role model for fans.
Many pop stars in her position have happily declared that they're not "role models" despite having thousands of young fans. In a new interview in the Nov. 15 print issue of Entertainment Weekly, Lovato, 21, talks about why she refuses to think that way.
PHOTOS: Demi Lovato and other stars who've battled mental health issues
"I used to say that too," she admitted to the publication. "That was my excuse to do whatever the f--- I wanted and not give a s--- about what other people thought. Then I ended up going through some stuff. I realized I'm never going to escape the fact that I'm in the public eye, so I might as well do the best I can."
Though many former Disney stars have fallen off the wagon, Lovato's story is unique because she was the first to do so while still on the children's network. In addition to working closely with Disney boy band The Jonas Brothers both on tour and in the films "Camp Rock" and "Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam," Lovato was starring the channel's show "Sonny With a Chance" when she went into rehab.
PHOTOS: Demi Lovato through the years
"When I was in treatment, I honestly thought my career was over," she said. "But when I came out of treatment, I had more supportive fans than ever."
And though her book of daily affirmations, "Staying Strong: 365 Days a Year," hits stands on Nov. 19, the "Heart Attack" singer has already signed on to write a tell-all memoir.
"I'm battling with internal thoughts on how honest I should be," the "X Factor" judge said. "Yes, I've been very honest, but if people really knew how dark and deep my struggles got -- not just with my eating disorder but with drugs and alcohol -- they'd be really shocked. But I'll most likely end up saying everything. Maybe it'll help other people in the industry who are headed down the wrong path."
And though she says she's not in the position to give her celebrity peers advice, she's often been asked about new-found wild child and fellow Disney vet Miley Cyrus.
"She's having fun and figuring out who she is, and this is the age when that happens," she mused. "I think that… [long pause and a smile] she's doing her own thing. Good for her."

Muslims can kill thousands of people without them having to close embassies around the world or be unable to go out and buy Halal meat. But when a French satirical magazine runs a few cartoons of Mohammed, then French schools and embassies around the world have to be closed. Is Cartoonophobia or Islamophobia a greater problem?
