TROUTDALE, Ore. The teen suspected of entering Reynolds High School Tuesday and killing one student before shooting himself was an active member of his Mormon church and was highly regarded for his spirituality, a church elder told NBC Wednesday.
The 15-year-old suspect, Jared Padgett, belonged to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints on 3500 Southeast 182nd Ave in Gresham.
Police: Reynolds gunman was freshman and heavily armed
Church elder Earl Milliron said Jared was very active in the church, along with his father, Michael, and older brother, Lucas.
Milliron visited the family s home after he heard about the shooting.
I just can t believe it, Milliron told NBC Wednesday. He was very quiet, very serious about his church.
According to Milliron, Padgett was a deacon of the church.His father was also an elder, and acted as a spiritual adviser to his church community.
The LDSchurch released this statement Wednesday: With the entire community, we are shaken and profoundly troubled by this tragedy that has impacted the lives of so many families and individuals. We are praying for all those involved, and hope they will be given the peace they need during this difficult time.
Although Milliron said he was shocked by the tragedy, he did say the divorce of Padgett s parents may have had an impact on the teen's mental state.
It was rather tragic, the breakup of the family, and that took a heavy toll on his dad, Milliron said.
Padgett is accused of gunning down fellow student Emilio Hoffman inside a school locker room and then killing himself. Investigators don't think Hoffman was a specific target and said they haven't been able to come up with a motive in the shooting, either.
Hoffman's close friend, Kaylah Ensign, said she was also stunned by the shooting. In a text message exchange with KGW Reporter Mike Benner, she saidPadgett was always polite.
He was kind, Ensign said. I never would have thought it was him. He always talked about guns and hunting but never in my mind could I see him hurt anyone. He barely even knew Emilio.

Last night, former Blue Jay Roy Halladay, now with the Philadelphia Phillies, threw seven shut out innings in a 9-0 Phillies win in Halladay's first game against his former team.
Johan Santana hoped to have similar success against his former Minnesota Twins teammates as he faced them for the first time since being traded in 2007.
But after Orlando Hudson, Jason Kubel and Delmon Young all had doubles in the first inning, Santana found himself in a 4-0 hole after throwing 40 pitches in the first inning alone.
Santana did settle down after that, lasting six innings, giving up five runs on eight hits, walking two and striking out only four.
Twins DH Jason Kubel hit a solo homer in the top of the ninth, and the final score was 6-0.
Twins starting pitcher Carl Pavano stole the show, however. Super Pavario pitched his second straight complete game shutout, and is now 4-0 with a 1.63 ERA and helping the Twins end their four-game slide.
Santana, who won the 2004 and 2006 (and should have won the 2005) AL Cy Young Awards while posting a 94-44 record with a 3.22 ERA and over 1300 strikeouts during his eight seasons with the Twins.
The Twins are the only MLB team that Santana hasn't beat during his eleven year career.

Privacy Act:
Federal Agencies' Implementation Can Be Improved
GGD-86-107: Published: Aug 22, 1986. Publicly Released: Sep 4, 1986.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 275-8676
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
In response to a congressional request, GAO examined federal agencies' implementation of the Privacy Act of 1974, which protects personal privacy. GAO specifically examined: (1) the roles of agency Privacy Act officers; and (2) agencies' adherence to the act's provisions and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) guidelines.
GAO found that: (1) approaches to implementing the act's regulations varied widely among the agencies; (2) agencies often failed to establish clear lines of responsibility and accountability for the act's functions; (3) agency Privacy Act officers had limited responsibilities, training, and resources to ensure compliance with the act; and (4) agencies need to improve adherence to OMB guidelines relating to activities, such as computer matching programs, risk assessments, evaluations, and training.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: OMB believes that desk officers fulfill the type of oversight envisioned by the framers of the Privacy Act. It has modified annual reporting requirements to provide more information for desk officer review.
Recommendation: The Director, OMB, should actively oversee agencies' implementation of the Privacy Act by following up periodically to ensure agencies' adherence to OMB Circular A-130 and other OMB guidance.
Agency Affected: Executive Office of the President: Office of Management and Budget
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: OMB has not completed action on all of the recommendations. It disagreed with the part of this recommendation to assign Privacy Act officers coordinating responsibilities and additional resources because it believes that agencies need latitude to allocate resources.
Recommendation: The Director, OMB, should direct agencies to: (1) review and update, or prepare, directives that clearly delegate responsibilities and establish accountability for all Privacy Act functions; (2) specifically assign to the Privacy Act officers coordinating responsibilities for all Privacy Act activities and ensure that the officers have the resources to fulfill these responsibilities; (3) systematically assess and provide for Privacy Act training to ensure that personnel are aware of the act's requirements and OMB guidance pertaining to such functions as conducting detailed risk assessments, automating systems of records, and conducting computer matching programs; and (4) assign responsibility for evaluating Privacy Act operations and monitoring implementation of any recommended improvements.
Agency Affected: Executive Office of the President: Office of Management and Budget
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: The passage of the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988 provided the anticipated clarification in guidance.
Recommendation: The Director, OMB, should review and clarify its: (1) OMB Circular A-130 guidance on automating records systems by providing more specific criteria on when agencies are to prepare a new system report and notice, to ensure greater consistency within and among agencies in recognizing the need to provide advance public notice and reports to OMB and Congress; (2) computer matching guidelines by stating that agencies are to annually report to OMB all participation in matching programs initiated in prior years but conducted on a recurring basis, to contribute to more complete data in the OMB annual report to Congress; (3) computer matching guidelines by providing for public notice of computer matching programs conducted by organizations not covered by the act when Privacy Act systems of records are disclosed by federal agencies; and (4) computer matching guidelines by instructing agencies to notify OMB when they believe they are exempt from OMB guidelines.

Hello! We both were born and raised in California, fell in love with the aloha spirit of the islands and moved to Hawaii to raise our two precious children. We are so happy to open our vacation home to visitors and share our little slice of paradise!
We chose to buy two vacation rentals in St. Louis Heights on Oahu because the views are the best on the island, the tradewinds keep the home comfortably cool and the proximity to town makes the location ideal.
We fell in love with the gorgeous ocean and Diamond Head views from the grand lanai (balcony), living room, kitchen, dining room and bedrooms.
#'What an amazing experience....Lara and Glen thought of everything!!!'
#'The view is even better than shown in the photos!'
#'[This is] Where to stay in Oahu!'
#'This is our best vacation ever'
#'The hot tub was unreal!'
This has been the most delightful experience of a lifetime. Staying in your home while in this beautiful, breathtaking land of Hawaii was truly a blessing we'll never forget. When we came here for our daughter's wedding we truly arrived in paradise. Your hospitality was so very special. We can't thank you enough. Aloha and God bless you - Brian and Merry Joy and family, Ellsworth, Wisconsin
We rented both houses for our families for a reunion/ wedding reception. Everyone could come and go for their various site seeing, beach outings, and hiking events and come back in the evening for our get together. Views were aswesome and houses had everything we needed - one suggestion from our daughter was -" tell people to look in every nook and cranny on their first arrival"- as our 3 yr old granddaughter discovered the little nook and cranny under the staircase filled with toys the day we were leaving!!! Our cousins from North Carolina found the games and puzzles under the kitchen bar the night before. Our relatives and friends that live on Oahu were impressed and glad to find these properties to recommend to family and friends when they visit. thanks so much for many wonderful memories. Theresa Richardson

Wow is the first thing I said when I arrived! The ocean, the city, the clean air, the hot tub, the grill, the hammock! The bedrooms had comfortable beds and . The air-conditioning worked well and the kitchen was well stocked. Our hosts left a beautiful basket of goodies and wine for us to enjoy on our arrival, as well as plenty of local tourism activity guides for us to make our planning simpler. It was great that we could easily cook some meals to save on restaurant charges for every meal! The view as even more outstanding than the pictures show. I absolutely recommend this place to others, whether they are a family or friend group!
While looking at the great pictures we took while staying here, I realized I never wrote a review. Well, I can't say enough about Glen and Lara's hospitality. This was no doubt the best experience my family and I have ever had traveling. They made us feel like we were at home. Hopefully the next time we travel to Oahu we can stay here again. True Home Away From Home. Thank You.
We stayed in this home for Christmas break 2013 and the house was finishing up some renovations. We had a few glitches in during our stay but Glenn and Lara did everything to help accommodate us. They always returned our emails and calls quickly to make sure our requests were done. When we left, the house was close to being fully renovated. Glenn and Lara did a beautiful job with almost everything new in the house. New appliances, carpet, bathrooms, and deck. The home has fabulous views and it is on a prime location. The house is in a safe and quiet neighborhood and only 15 minutes from Waikiki.
Thank you Glenn and Lara! Aloha
This was a great find for my family and I in Hawaii. After exhausting hours looking for multiple hotel rooms I recalled renting a home and redirected my search. Of all that were available Ocean View seemed the best fit for size, location and value. After staying there those items were confirmed. The views are unbelievable and exactly like the pictures. The house was "hospital clean" with every convenience provided. 3 complete bedrooms,3 full baths, fully stocked kitchen, beach gear, snorkeling equipment, wi-fi, daily paper, washer/dryer, etc. I can't imagine the savings those items alone provided. PLUS!!! You are minutes from any destination. I would definitely stay there again over any hotel.
Recommended for: Adventure Seekers, Girls Getaway, Tourists without a Car, Sightseeing, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children
celebrated the holidays with my family at Ocean View. Everything you see in the pictures and video are accurate, there is no puffing or trick photograhy. The bedrooms are bigger than most hotel rooms, the kitchen is well stocked, having beach towels, mats, chairs and snorkeling equipment is a great plus. My family and I truly enjoyed our stay and in no small way it had to do with these great accommodations. Plus the location is perfect Although in a residential neighborhood everything you want to do is only a short drive away. And then there are the views! Priceless indeed.
Everything is close by! Waikiki, the beach, Hawaii Convention Center, restaurants and bars are within walking distance to 2 miles away. This home has the most gorgeous panoramic ocean, Waikiki, Diamond Head, mountain and golf course view.

Best 18" dishwasher
By Jill
from Undisclosed
Comments about Electrolux 18" Built-In Dishwasher - Stainless Steel:
I use this dishwasher every day or two for my family of four. If you only have space for an 18" dishwasher, this is the one. Dishes come out sparkling every time. The drawers are well organized to fit all my dishes. It runs quietly and has a sleek look.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Normal review
By Evan
Very pleased with the product. It looks great. It cleans well. Only issue is that it seems slightly loud, but that doesn't bother me very much.
Great compact diswasher
By allendred
Bought this unit to place in a small cabinet space hole. It really packs a punch !! Cleans great and very quiet.
Quiet and dependable
By Abswifey
This dishwasher is very quiet and I love the blue indicator light that shines on the floor when cycle is complete. The upper spray arm is plastic and seems flimsy but overall I'm happy with the dishwasher.
(25 of 28 customers found this review helpful)
By Mary
I have had this dishwasher for 2 years and I think it is amazing. It cleans dishes and glasses better than any dishwasher I have owned. Never any food left on dishes, and I very often overload it.

Tonight's the Pretty Little Liars fatal finale — ABC Family has revealed there will be one "shocking" death tonight on the series. We wouldn't be surprised if the fatality was attributed to Aria Montgomery, because Lucy Hale's hair is killing it every single time she hits the red carpet. She's known to rock waves, curls, chignons, and braids, with a tendency to wear them to one side (usually the right, if we're being specific). The lopsided look gives Lucy a chance to show off her best over-the-shoulder poses, and you can see them all below. Make sure to watch Pretty Little Liars tonight for even more off-center hair ideas!
2014 MTV Video Music Awards
Lucy's ponytail at the MTV VMAs had a lot of volume, thanks to some teasing at the crown and texture in the tail.
2014 Teen Choice Awards
Lucy wore her hair back at the Teen Choice Awards, allowing a few face-framing tendrils to slip out of her braid. This look was especially sophisticated from the front . . .
2014 Teen Choice Awards
But the braid was a real party in the back! The thick, twisted plait was stunning and balanced the simple elegance of her dress.
2014 Hollister Collection Launch
Lucy launched her Hollister [1] collection wearing her hair down, showing off her glossy layers.
2014 Billboard Music Awards
At this year's Billboard Music Awards, Lucy stunned with neutral makeup and casual, sideswept curls.
2014 PLL Season Finale Screening
Lucy opted for this intricate side fishtail braid on the red carpet for the Pretty Little Liars finale screening in New York.
2014 Radio Disney Music Awards
Lucy pulls off this loose hairstyle by casually putting all of her waves to the the right side. The look also shows off her subtle ombré hue.
2013 CMA Awards
Sleek and sophisticated was the goal for Lucy at the 2013 CMA Awards, and she achieved it with a neutral makeup palette and soft curls thrown over the shoulder.
2013 Teen Choice Awards
Lucy had her hair styled in loose beach waves that showed off her ombré hair tint.
2012 CMA Awards
Instead of her typical head of waves, Lucy tried out tight ringlet curls pinned back at the nape.
2012 Young Hollywood Party
With semistraight strands, Lucy still turned to her sideswept signature and added a bright tangerine lip color for extra drama on the Teen Vogue Young Hollywood red carpet in 2012.
2012 Teen Choice Awards
It's no surprise to see that the side braid is another one of Lucy's favorite looks. She wore this casual look to the 2012 Teen Choice Awards.
2012 MTV Movie Awards
In 2012, Lucy cut her strands into a shorter lob style, but the new length didn't keep her from wearing her favorite deep side part.
2012 Cosmopolitan Fun Fearless Men and Women
Even Lucy's updos have a slight lilt to the right. At the Cosmopolitan Fun Fearless Men and Women of 2012 gala, her hair was slicked back with a curled bang on one side.
2011 Teen Choice Awards
Lucy went heavy on the eyeliner at the 2011 Teen Choice Awards, but we could have easily predicted her hairstyle of choice — over-the-shoulder waves.
2011 People's Choice Awards
Lucy went for another asymmetrical style, wearing an off-center chignon as well as thick eyelashes and a bright red lipstick.
2010 MTV Movie Awards
In 2010, Lucy Hale arrived as the fresh-faced star of Pretty Little Liars. At the MTV Movie Awards that year, she glowed thanks to a golden makeup palette, which was complemented by — you guessed it — sideswept Old Hollywood waves.

GLWS, but based on your description this is a 7.5" wheel, not an 8.5".

BUMP!!! Open to offers. Need to get these sold.
Price is Or Best Offer. would be willing to part if somebody was interested in just the wheels, or the lips or the bolts etc...
Spent some time taking some more pics today. Here's everything we've got, somebody give these bad boys a new home.
Full Gallery Here
Love RT's, very hard set to come by.
In case anyone didnt know, RS centers, lips, wheel screws/nuts, hex nut, and centercaps swap out between the two. The waffle does not as on an RT its flat and RS's have the cross pattern. Just a heads up for anyone interested.

I have done my best to document any cosmetic blemishes there may be in any of the lips or paint. Please note that one of the barrels does have a hairline crack, as shown in the picture below. I'm sure this could be welded/repaired, or replacement barrels can be had pretty easily. Any 16" BBS RS lip or barrel or hex cap will work with these wheels, almost all of the parts are swappable.
Bro needs these gone. Will do 1500 shipped or will even deliver within 100 miles of Chicago for a 6pack of some tasty beer.
BUMP. Forgot all about these bad boys. Somebody should buy these for themselves as a nice Christmas present.
Are these still available?

When Tom Cruise was announced to play iconic detective Jack Reacher in a new film version, some fans were sceptical.
But according to Lee Child - the best-selling author behind the character - the A-list star is just as tough as the hard-as-nails detective… and proved it on set.
Watch the full interview with Tom Cruise, Chris McQuarrie and Lee Child here
[Related story: Cruise: Why I love UK]
[Related story: Cruise defends Jack Reacher role]
Speaking at an exclusive event for the film hosted by Yahoo! Movies, which saw Cruise, Child and director Chris McQuarrie answer questions from fans, the author told us the moment he knew Cruise was the perfect Reacher.
"I'm going to embarrass Tom now," he said. "But people have talked a lot, saying 'oh is he right for the role?'… but he was injured from one of the car wrecks [on set]. His left hand was swollen up like a football. Remember that? It looked really bad.
"As a friend, I would've said 'take two days off and go to the hospital'. As a union rep, which was another job of mine once, I'd have said: 'take a week off!'. But he just said 'yeah, this is nothing'. To me, that's Reacher. Reacher will do the job or die trying."
The star did all his own stuntwork for the film's signature car chase, but wouldn't admit how much he costs to insure. "We don't send the footage to the studio… right away," he said. "If the camera isn't in danger, then it's not worth the shot. It was very exciting."
Handy... swollen mitt couldn't stop Tom (Credit: Paramount)
Cruise also felt a huge affinity with the character, an ex-military loner who lives 'off the grid' and spends his time solving grisly crimes.
He said he'd quite fancy experiencing Reacher's simplistic lifestyle for a bit. "I like living in hotel rooms. I like travelling the way he travels. I'd DEFINITELY get rid of my cellphone... and I do sometimes."
'Jack Reacher' is released in the UK on 26 December 2012.

This was a great hotel for my first trip to Indianapolis. The location was within walking distance to the convention center, and sight-seeing. The breakfast buffet included with the room was excellent with great service. I really enjoyed the valet guys outside. They knew a lot of the history of the historic buildings in town. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome. We stayed in a train car and it was a unique experience. I'd recommend this hotel if you love good service from friendly faces and the charm of historical landmarks. The only disappointing thing about my stay was that I didn't have time to fully enjoy all the hotel had to offer.

For the price I expected a lot more. I was disappointed with the exterior and well as the bar area. The room was clean but I was woken up multiple times because of passing trains. I do not think i will stay in this location again.

I really appreciate your taking the time to share your disappointment with your recent experience. I want to personally apologize for the noise that disturbed your stay. The hotel being in a Historical Building with an active train station does create some unique issues. I am sorry we were not able to meet your expectations. I hope you will give us another try if your travels bring you back to the Indianapolis area.

Wired for Math
Our brains seem to come equipped with systems for estimating amounts and adding numbers.
By Emily Sohn, 00:00 AM November 28, 2005
Quick. What's 845 + 289? Sorry, time's up.
Few people can add numbers in their heads that quickly. If someone showed you a set of 845 dots next to a set of 289 dots, however, you'd probably be able to tell right away which set has more dots. You could probably also tell that 845 dots is more than 100 dots plus 189 dots, even if you saw all three sets of dots separately.
How quickly can you solve this problem?
By giving tests like these to kids and adults, scientists are discovering that...

A class action suit against Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems (MERS) in Pennsylvania will go forward after a federal district court ruled that the state recording statute is constitutional. The court ruled that the statutory recording requirements are "patently clear."
The plaintiffs, a class of county recorders of deeds, seek an injunction against the use of the MERS recording registry and compensation for money that would have been paid to the counties if transfers of security interests had been recorded in the county recorder's office, as the plaintiffs claim is required by the statute.
The court's ruling, issued on April 22, 2014, denied MERS's motion for summary judgment. MERS argued that the recording statute was unconstitutionally vague because it does not provide clear direction about what must be recorded, as well as when and by whom. The court rejected that argument and ruled that the statute clearly requires parties to record "mortgages and mortgage assignments" in the county recorder's office. It also found that the statute clearly provides that the parties must record transfers within 90 days. Finally, it rejected MERS's contention that the statute "lacks objective standards" leading to "arbitrary application" and "confusing" enforcement.
The decision differs from the conclusions drawn by other courts. Recent decisions by the U.S. Courts of Appeals for the Seventh and Eighth Circuits have rejected unjust enrichment claims by county recorders' offices. In January, the Seventh Circuit affirmed the dismissal of an unjust enrichment claim, holding that MERS engaged in no "unlawful act" that could permit the county recorders to recover for unjust enrichment. Similarly, in December, the Eighth Circuit rejected an unjust enrichment claim by county recorders on the grounds that MERS had no duty to record the transfers of security interest with the county recorder's office.

I actually like some things about Kansas City: cost of living, affordable housing, some of the communities, the arts, etc. But when it comes to raising kids, that can make or break what I feel about a city. I remember getting a job offer from a city that had a pretty dismal outlook educationally. I know our education system in our urban core needs fixing, but at least there are viable options for a lot of students. Is KC, Overland Park, Olathe, Lee's Summit some of the best places to raise kids – particularly black children? Depends on who you ask.
Did you see the report a while back on the worst place to raise black children? According to the study, the Midwest had a couple of states that were less than ideal – Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana to name a few – due to many factors including racial disparities, violence, and poverty . While no place is 100% safe or has everything, economics is an issue. The KIDS COUNT policy report "Race for Results: Building a Path to Opportunity for All Children", stated:
"Research has shown that growing up in chronic poverty contributes directly to stress at a level that can affect children's health, brain development and social and emotional well-being — a response known as 'toxic stress."
It is so important we close the education and economic gaps that can cause our kids to suffer – no matter where we live. But if you're curious –like me – where are the best places (supposedly) to raise black children? Peep the list!
Via Black Doctor 10 Best Cities To Raise Black Children:
10. Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI. Currently there are 24. 8 million young African Americans living in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. Very promising.
9. Omaha-Council Bluffs, NE-IA
8. Portland-Vancouver-Hillsboro, OR-WA
7. Phoenix-Mesa-Glendale, AZ
6. Milwaukee-Waukesha-West Allis, WI
5. San Diego-Carlsbad-San Marcos, CA
4. Sacramento-Arden-Arcade-Roseville, CA
3. Oklahoma City, OK
2. Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, WA
1. Columbus, OH. Columbus, Ohio rounds out our list with the most young African Americans living with 28.9 million.
Am I the only one surprised at some of the cities on the list – and some that are missing? While I'd only live in on or two on this list, let's make things the best we can for our kids – right here in our city! There are opportunities for mentorship, effective youth ministry, extracurricular activities, and educational experiences that can enhance our kids lives. We simply must do the work to find out where they are, how to connect our kids to them, and commit to excellence when rearing our Generation Now babies.

I-Remit sees big growth from OFW deals
popular .
Listed money transfer firm I-Remit Inc. expects to maintain double-digit growth in terms of remittance volume as transactions increase from Filipino workers overseas and as it opens up new markets targeting foreigners.
The company, which claims a leading spot in the non-bank domestic money transfer market, is growing volumes at about 10 percent "so far" over last year, I-Remit president and chief operating officer Harris Jacildo told reporters at the sidelines of the company's annual stockholders' meeting.
"I think we can sustain that especially with new markets," Jacildo said.
He said the company's volume growth continued to outpace the remittance industry, which increased 5.3 percent to $1.87 billion in May, data from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas showed. This brought the five-month total to $8.78 billion, up 5.6 percent.
I-Remit said transactions it processed in 2012 grew 10.4 percent to P3.08 billion.
"We are still targeting to grow bigger than the industry," Jacildo said.
While the business model also depended on fees generated from overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) sending money back home, the company has also been targeting countries with a large number of international workers of their own.
As far as other nationalities are concerned, we have China and we launched Indonesia [in Hong Kong] two weeks ago," Jacildo said.
He said that I-Remit was looking to serve Indonesians working in Hong Kong, a market that has been rapidly growing in recent years.
"The demand for workers in Hong Kong has increased because the economy in Hong Kong has improved," I-Remit chair Bansan Choa told reporters.

The recurring question I hear from so many people in business is: "Why aren't more startups generated by the university system?" It's not an easy question, certainly not one to be solved in a single blog post. As I considered the many facets of academia that influence the actions of its researchers such as government policies, university culture, funding agency metrics and so forth, I realized that the obstacles and challenges faced by professors are similar to those of most any startup.

Jnanpith award winners recalled him as a man of intellectual and administrative integrity who built institutions and did not mince words when he felt strongly about an issue, though he rarely aligned himself with any political movement.
Jnanpith award winners U.R. Ananthamurthy, Girish Karnad and Chandrashekhar Kambar have recalled their long association with poet and writer G.S. Shivarudrappa.
They recalled him as a man of intellectual and administrative integrity who built institutions and did not mince words when he felt strongly about an issue, though he rarely aligned himself with any political movement.'A true leader'
Prof. Ananthamurthy said: "G.S. Shivarudrappa had the qualities of a true leader of the literary world. It was only when he was the head of the Department of Kannada in Bangalore that it got a vitality that comes from inviting various streams of thought into the department. Great literary discussions and seminars were held and we would clash and yet be friends at the end of it. He inherited the legacy of his teacher and great writer Kuvempu. It was Shivarudrappa who connected us to this world, this legacy. In that sense he is a symbol of continuity in literature. He had, at once, a historical sense and an aesthetic sense, which is a rare combination. People speak of literature as 'pratibimba' (reflection) of society. He had the imagination to see it as 'gatibimba' (reflecting the movement of time)."'Lucid, lyrical'
Mr. Karnad said: "He was someone I admired greatly as a poet. He was lucid, lyrical and did not believe in obscuring poetry. He was in the tradition of Kuvempu, which was quite different from the tradition of poets Bendre from North Karnataka on the one hand and Gopalakrishna Adiga (an icon of the modern literary stream in Kannada) on the other. What endeared me to him particularly was his committed stand on secularism and against the Hindutva politics. It was Shivarudrappa who made the first statement against saffronisation of the Bababudangiri shrine at Chikmagalur. He was somebody who responded to issues around him without getting sentimental about it. This made him a great individual apart from being a very important poet."'Inspiring creativity'
Prof. Kambar said: "I recall a seminar on Kannada theatre held in 1972 in Bangalore University when Shivarudrappa headed the department. I wrote 'Jokumaraswamy' after that, and Lankesh wrote 'Oedipus' and 'Sankranti' which became known all over the country. He had the capacity to inspire creativity in people. He built an intellectual tradition in Kannada in his own unique way. He brought brilliant minds into the Kannada Department. He was the last link to a tradition that believed that a language like Kannada needs to be strengthened to counter the colonial hegemony with all its heavy intellectual baggage. When I became the vice-chancellor of Kannada University I often took advice from him and he even visited the campus, always willing to help out with building an institution."

The Power of the Written Word
Writing by hand, and being able to write by hand, is as important as ever.
It matters, and is one of the cornerstones of how we communicate with one another.
National Stationery Week celebrates the written word and all things stationery – the wonderful products which make it all possible, and give so much pleasure to so many people.
You can never have too much stationery!
2015 marks the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta, and is a reminder of how well handwriting has stood the test of time.
It also sees the launch of #WorldStationeryDay on 29 April, as part of National Stationery Week.
Let's get more people putting pen to paper and writing more often – especially children – and send more letters and cards, especially to those we care for, rather than just text or email. Â It's much more personal.
National Stationery Week is organised by the London Stationery Show, the UK's leading trade exhibition for stationery and writing products.

There is a growing consensus in Afghanistan that the government must negotiate with the Taliban to end the long running insurgency, but there is also widespread skepticism that President Hamid Karzai's current offer to low level Taliban fighters will work.
''This is upside down," former Taliban ambassador to the U.N., Abdul Hakim Mujahid told ABC News.
Mujahid believes that in order for a plan such as this one to work, Karzai should be approaching the leaders at the top level of the Taliban leadership and not the foot soldiers.
Dr. Sima Samar, chair of the Afghanistan independent human rights commission, doubts Karzai's plan will achieve much because it is confusing and lacks clear and transparent guidelines.
'Nobody knows the mechanism, there are conflicting reports through media and that is more confusing for the public, rather than giving them a lot of information,'' Samar told ABC News.
Karzai trumpeted his plan to reach out to Taliban fighters last week at the London conference on Afghanistan last week. Karzai invited them to a peace council in the hope of reaching a meaningful and lasting settlement. The plan includes offering fighters an incentive including money and a job to lay down their arms. He believes he will be able to convince them to switch sides.
The top U.S. leader in Afghanistan, Gen. Stanley McCrystal concurs with this peace plan. At a briefing recently, McCrystal said, ''We don't want to tell them we are going to crush everyone one of you and kill every one of you, because we're not. We're going to try to work an accommodation so they can come back into society so long as they come back into the constitution.''
This is a point of view that was supported by Secretary of State Hilary Clinton last week at the conference. Speaking in London, Clinton said ''the starting premise is you don't make peace with your friends. You have to be willing to engage with your enemies if you want to create a situation that ends the insurgency."
Taliban spokesman Qari Mohammad Yousuf said last week, "I cannot say a word regarding these peace talks. The Taliban leadership will soon decide whether to take part in these peace talks."
Mujahib said the Taliban response was a good sign. ''I think in this kind of response there is a little bit of hope…At least, they have replied to the media that so far the leadership of the Taliban Islamic movement didn't decide to go to the negotiation table or to reject that," he said.
In a recent poll with the BBC and ARD, the majority of Afghans don't support the Taliban and blame them for the violence and problems in their country. Nevertheless, 65 percent favor a negotiated settlement with the Taliban.
But they are not convinced that Karzai's strategy has any better chance than previous amnesties had.
''I don't see any difference between the previous plans and the present plan," Mujahib said.
He also claims that the language itself is more harmful than helpful. "This is too much bad language. It will not help and support the process of reconciliation. What is purchasing low level Taliban? The world of purchasing is not acceptable for normal Afghans especially those who are fighting foreign forces in this country under the title of holy war or sacred war.''
While there is a great deal of skepticism towards this plan, one view shared by many in Afghanistan is that the fighting must stop.

Hey guys, I posted this over in design tips, but perhaps this area is a better home (sorry you can delete the other thread or combine).
I just wanted to share my "HTML5 starter child theme" that makes use of the new add_theme_support( 'genesis-html5′ ); feature.
It includes a widgetized homepage, stripped down css supporting "old" and the new tags for 2.0( #header seems to be .site-header, #inner seems to be .site-inner, ect.), plus all the fun additions/mods I generally make when starting from scratch.
Please check it out and let me know your feedback!
Hi Greg,
You started a discussion on this over here – http://www.studiopress.com/forums/topic/new-html5-base-child-theme-with-2-0-kept-in-mind/. I am going to close this one so that we can keep focus on the first one.

Cocktails served in plastic glasses
The staff was friendly, polite, and helpful.
I do not understand with the "resort" charge. Those "extras" should be included.
Room was spacious and clean. Hotel is right off of I20 and easy for travelling. If you want non-smoking, make sure to specify that when you book. The smoking floors REEK of smoke.
Superb value in a suite. Would definitely come back.
The facilities are older and need to be renovated. (But it was clean and the service was excellent.)
Very clean, the staff was helpful, it's my new favorite place to stay in Bossier City, I will be back.
This was an average Hampton. Hamotons are our favorite type of hotel. Always clean and very comfortable. The room was plenty big for our family of 5.
Great facility and staff
Hard to get to it coming from the river walk but once there, very pleased
The ONLY thing acceptable about this hotel was the staff. They were very friendly.
It's dirty, disgustingly deplorable. I should have checked the Facebook page instead of just the online reviews. The rooms were filthy. NO elevators, which wouldn't be a big deal if you weren't a family of 4, put on the 2nd floor. I couldn't sleep for fear of my car being broken into or bugs crawling on me. OLD big box TV, horrible A/C. I guess the spent all their money in the lobby, as it's the only nice thing about this hotel. We checked out first thing the next morning and went home.
The bed was comfortable and the ac worked very well.
The options for breakfast were very limited.
Overall classy appearance for a fair rate with Comfortable, spacious & fairly clean room.
Only issue was with the service at the Java cafe. It was extremely slow on multiple occasions/visits during my stay and only returned to cafe for the convenience of it being open after the sit-down restaurants closed for the evening. People's orders were not done in sequential order and 2-4 staff would be standing around instead of helping fulfill orders while customers waited extended periods of time for items that did not involve cooking or preparation. Several customers were upset for the excessive wait. Also, a bottled water on their digital menu screen was listed as $1.25, however it was $2 when rung up. This was frustrating as a customer, because I felt a bit deceived even if it was only 75 cents. If Java's service would improve their efficiency and customer service, I believe this casino would easily be 4-5 stars in every rating category.
Visted Shreveport on business, stayed at Sam's Town for a few days. The location was great, the staff was friendly, and the rooms were clean. Ill be staying here again.
I like everything about the hotel. It was very clean the employers was very professional and helpful.
There Was Nothing About The Hotel I Didn't like.
Rooms were excellent. Staff was wonderful. Food in the restaurant was delicious.
The price & location was good
The room smelled like dirty feet, my daughter says smells like a locker room. We stayed 2 nights after buying some air freshener. They did not clean the room or restock with clean towels, tissue paper etc
The room was clean. And staff was very friendly and helpful.
The bed was extremely uncomfortable.
Rented the room on a short trip, hotel is not the hilton but what do you want for---- a night. It is a nice place, Has a 24 diner, Bar (FUN) and a 24 shuttle to the casino. The staff was AMAZING!!!!!!!
Clean and nice. Appliances like refrigerator and microwave in the room.
Even though staff was helpful at front desk there were no smiles. This lady was a little rough in the edges.
Clean rooms and property. Enjoyed the stay.
Centrally located for my traveling needs...
Bad parking and hard to get to
First - the reservation did not 'show up' in their system - I had to call hotels.com and verify...EVEN THOUGH I had a confirmation number.IT took almost 30 minutes to get in my room. Once everything was "verified" I was told they only had a smoking room available...since I 'didn't have a reservation. The room was I guess handicapped accessible - there was a weird shower - that inevitably got water EVERYWHERE!! ZERO water pressure and a handle shower to 'rinse' off with. It was crazy!! We didn't have a blamnket/comforter on one of the beds - called front desk - they were 'out of blankets' - A casino hotel...on a MONDAY night...was out of blankets!! There was no trash can - no channell guide(not important, just another lacking piece) -
We were in town for a funeral - in the morning, woke up...realized the DISASTER we were facing with the 'shower' - it took me forever to wash my hair...and then I went to make coffee - in the offbrand Keurig type machine - and guess what!!! It didn't work...unless you held the button down for about two minutes as it heated the water, etc.
I thought it.d be worth the extra money to stay here...versus staying near the airport...yea...not so much!!!
Fair value for the money
Didn't get the rooms we booked.stayed in a room that was supposed to be non smoking but smelled like an ashtray,didn't care for the beds they were very hard and the room was quite small

Report: NYT J'lem Chief Has Son in IDF
Potential conflict-of-interest explored
Has the son of Ethan Bronner—the New York Times's current Israel beat reporter—enlisted in the Israeli military? (And, if so, would that constitute an unacceptable conflict of interest for Bronner?) An earlier report of this was subsequently retracted, but yesterday the blog Electronic Intifada seemed all but confirmed the news. The blog—which tends to be extremely skeptical of Israel and its policies vis-a-vis the Palestinians—contacted Bronner after receiving a tip; he referred them to the Times foreign editor, who responded: "Mr. Bronner's son is a young adult who makes his own decisions. At the Times, we have found Mr. Bronner's coverage to be scrupulously fair and we are confident that will continue to be the case." Electronic Intifada's media blog has repeatedly criticized Bronner for an alleged pro-Israel bias.
Prior Times Jerusalem bureau chiefs include James Bennet, now the editor of The Atlantic, and Thomas Friedman, now the über-columnist. When it comes to shaping U.S. opinion about Israel, it's a pretty prominent and important gig.

Passing of the torch? Doc passes
|05.11.10 at 7:48 pm ET
CLEVELAND — For the last few days all the talk around the Celtics has been on the passing of the torch from the Big Three to Rajon Rondo. Funny, but the Celtics don't look at it that way.
"That's for y'all, I'm just trying to get them to pass the ball to each other," Doc Rivers said. "That torch stuff, I'm going to leave that alone. As long as they keep passing to each other, I'm good."

Wine maker notes
Ripe tropical fruit flavors create medium sweetnessand a light, crisp finish in this fun and fragrant sparkling white wine. Celebrate the occasion with bubbles.
Victorias first vineyard was planted at Yering Station in 1838. The Scottish-born Ryrie brothers ventured into the Yarra Valley as they moved their cattle south from Sydney. Taking up a grazing license of 43 000 acres, they named the property 'Yering, its Aboriginal name. The Ryries planted two varieties, the Black Cluster of Hamburg and a white grape variety called Sweetwater. During the early 1850s they returned to Sydney and Paul de Castella took ownership of Yering Station, developing the property from what remained primarily a cattle station into a landmark of winemaking in Victoria. Paul de Castella arrived in the Yarra Valley after traveling from his home town- the Neuchatel district in Switzerland. Many Swiss settled in the Yarra Valley around this time due to the sympathetic presence of the Victorian Governors wife, Sophie La Trobe, who also came from the region. Without them, the story of wine in the Yarra Valley would have been very different. During the 1850s Yering Station began to take shape. Paul de Castella extended the vineyards and cultivated the varieties with new cuttings imported from France. The winery was built to accommodate brand new equipment imported from the 1859 Bordeaux Exhibition in Paris. A new house and garden were constructed and an avenue of 330 elms was planted along the driveway to welcome De Castellas bride. In 1861 Yering Station won the Argus Gold Cup for the best Victorian vineyard. De Castella advocated for strong communication between vineyard and winery. For years the Yering Station vineyard was one of the largest in the area and as visitors and holiday makers to the Yarra Valley began to increase, wines from this new region began to make their mark on the world. In 1889 Yering Station won a Grand Prix at the Universal Exhibition in Paris. Only fourteen such awards were ever granted internationally. The winery received the sole award for a wine produced in the southern hemisphere. By the early 20th century, the Yarra Valley wine industry was in decline. The phylloxera epidemic had destroyed many Victorian vineyards and although it never reached the Yarra Valley, economic and social factors (such as palate preference) impacted upon cool climate viticulture in Victoria. The Yarra Valley area returned to dairy farming. It was not until the early 1970s that, in response to the changing cultural demands of the new generation, coupled with the growing success of other Australian regions, the Yarra Valley vineyards began to thrive once more. Yering Station Modern History After changing hands several times throughout the early-to-mid 1900s, Yering Station was purchased by the Rathbone family in 1996. A further 100 acres of vines were planted and that same year a joint venture was signed with Champagne Devaux, a leading Champagne house in France, to make the now famed Yarrabank sparkling. The Rathbone family made plans for the development of a state-of-the-art winery to accommodate and complement the anticipated increase in winemaking standards. John Evans moved across from nearby Yarra Ridge to manage the expanding vineyards. Melbourne architect Robert Conti was appointed and designs were laid to recreate Yering Station as a landmark tourist destination and key contributor to the international wine community. Yering Station Today Today Yering Station remains true to its heritage as a family-owned and operated winery dedicated to producing wines of quality and distinction. The Rathbone family is committed to providing an environment that allows its passionate young team to thrive. In recent times, this vision has culminated in some exciting recognition, with the 'International Winemaker of the Year at the highly coveted International Wine and Spirit Competition, London in 2004. As well as the property's induction into the Australian Tourism Awards 'Hall of Fame in 2006. In 2008, the winery team welcomed into the fold new Chief Winemaker - Willy Lunn. It is a great boon to Yering Station that Willy has taken over the role as Chief Winemaker marking a new, exciting chapter for the Rathbone familys journey in the wine industry and the unsurpassed quality of their regionally acclaimed wines. Willys commitment to encouraging a strong team spirit throughout the winery will continue to allow the passionate team at Yering Station to thrive. The importance of our proud heritage is still a visible feature of the property today. Historical icons such as the original avenue of elms, the heritage-listed barn and early winery building, now home to our cellar door are reminders of the achievements of the past. The stunning new architecture is designed to reflect the superb natural surrounds and provide visitors with exceptional facilities in which to experience the finest in wine, food, and sensory experience. The Yering Station philosophy is founded on the bridging point between old and new. In every aspect of our workings, and especially in the making of our wines, we employ and respect traditional, age-old techniques, and enhance them with our own band of new world style and sophistication.

OK - since I've decided that my boys will be sharing a room for a long time, if not forever, I have some questions about bunkbeds.
My boys have twin beds in their room that could be bunked. We don't have them bunked for several reasons:
1. They would block a window (there are two windows in this corner room).
2. Our ceilings are fairly low (7.5 ft high) and the bunkbeds are full height.
3. I'm worried the kids would get hurt.
4. My kids like to flop on their beds and read. We like to sit on their beds and read to them.
5. Each of their twin beds currently has a set of three drawers that go under them, so each boy uses that as his dresser (enough space for now, but not for when they get older and wear larger clothes).
Obviously there are also many benefits to bunking the beds. Does anyone love their bunkbeds so much that they would try to convince me to try bunking ours?!
Now here's an idea!

Do you have a Gucci watch with an old, worn out leather band but you can't
find the right shaped replacement band? With our notching pliers you can
finally have the perfect replacement leather band for you favorite leather Gucci
Tools Needed:
Tools Needed:
Step 1
Step 1
To ensure that you new watch band will fit your Gucci watch just right, you
will need to start by measuring the lug of the watch case. Take your digital
gauge and measure the length of the lug watch end first to find out how deep a
cut you need to make in your new leather band. Use the regular jaws of your
gauge to measure the inside of the lug from where it connects to the watch case
to the outside edge of the lug.
Measure this section twice before recording your results to be sure you have
the right length.
Step 2
Step 2
Once you know how long the cut needs to be, you will need to figure out how
wide it should be. For a Gucci style case, with a single cut in the center of
the band, you just measure the width of the lug with your digital gauge. Measure
the width twice and record the result.
When you know the width, you can select the notching pliers the best matches
your needs.
Step 3
Step 3
Before you can actually cut your new leather band, you will want to find the
exact center of your new band. This way you can be sure that the band and watch
stay centered together.
Measure the width of your new watch band with your digital gauge and divide
the resulting measurement in half to find the halfway point.
Step 4
Step 4
Once you know where the center of the watch band will be, measure from the
outside edge of the band to the mid point that you calculated. Make a small mark
on the watch band at this point.
To be confident that each half of the watch band will be positioned in the exact
same place on the watch case, line up the two flat ends of the watch band pieces
and mark the second half where you marked the first half.
Step 5
Step 5
Then, you will want to take the length measurement of your watch case lug and
mark that distance out on your watch band at the end of where you intend to cut
the band. After you find the measurement you need with your digital gauge, you
can lock the jaws in that position to easily mark the other half of the band to
guarantee that each half of the band will be identical.
When you have all these markings, you can notch your watch band with
confidence. Starting with one half of the band, take your notching pliers and
position the end of the band between the jaws of the pliers. Be sure to align
your center marking with the middle of the cutting edge. Also be sure that your
end marking will match up with the end of the cutting edge of the pliers.
Remember: It is easier to make one single cut with the notching pliers than
to try to make two smaller cuts. Holding the watch band steady, slowly close the
jaws of the pliers, allowing the metal to cut through the leather band. You may
find it difficult to cut through the leather band with the notching pliers. To
make it easier, you can brace the pliers against your workbench and use two
hands to apply pressure to the tool, like this.
Set the first half of the watch band aside and remove the trimmings from the
pliers. Then, take the second half of the band and repeat Step 6 to cut the
second half of the band to match the first.
Once you have made the cuts in both portions of the watch band, you will want
to use the fabric cement to seal the cut edges of the watch band to keep them
from fraying or coming apart. Take your fabric cement, and one half of the watch
band, and apply a small amount of adhesive all the cut edges. Be careful not to
accidentally seal the hole in the band shut because if you do you won't be able
to connect the band to the watch case.
Set the first half of the watch band aside, and seal the second side of the band
just like you did with the first.
Finally, let the fast drying cement set up and dry for about a half hour to
ensure a good seal.
Then, when the fabric cement has dried, you can attach your new watch band to
your favorite Gucci watch. Check out this article to learn

Teen to Meet Hasbro Execs about Easy-Bake Oven
When McKenna Pope's 4 year old brother asked for an Easy-Bake Oven, her and her parents were surprised at what they had found. Even at the age of 13, McKenna was taken aback by the obvious gender stereotyping on the packaging of the Hasbro Easy-Bake Oven. The casing was completely tailored to girls, from the pink and purple colors to the lack of boys on the box.
Rightfully so, McKenna didn't want her brother to feel awkward about wanting an Easy-Bake Oven that is so obviously targeted to young girls instead of boys. I mean, why can't boys cook and bake too? There are plenty of famous male chefs these days! So she decided to take matters into her own hands. She created a petition on Change.org in hopes of downgrading the very obvious gender roles depicted on the product. She stated in her petition plea that she wants her "brother to know that it's not "wrong" for him to want to be a chef, that it's okay to go against what society believes to be appropriate."
McKenna just may get her wish too. The petition has been picking up steam, with more than 40,000 signatures and a surplus of comments in support of her argument. One commenter wrote, "I loved my easy-bake oven when I was a boy and I love cooking today. all boys should have access to the kitchen. and it's never too early to let them have that access." Amen, my friend, amen.
Will you see gender-neutral Easy-Bake Ovens on the shelves soon for the little one in your life? Maybe. The landslide of signatures has not gone unnoticed at Hasbro, and she is now set to meet with executives on Monday. Go McKenna!
