The April execution of convicted murderer Clayton Lockett in Oklahoma did not go as intended: Mr. Lockett died of a heart attack forty minutes after lethal injection drugs were administered, and only after episodes of groaning and writhing, according to witnesses.
But exactly what happened during the entirety of that time period, and immediately before, remains a mystery to the public, according to two news organizations that sued the state on Monday in an Oklahoma federal court. Read More »

Cheapest place to buy online?
Cheapest place to buy online?
Where is the cheapest place to buy things like nuts, seeds, dried fruits etc online?
A good place is www.sunorganic.com. They have fantastic service. The more you buy in weight, the cheaper the price is, which is great for things like nuts, seeds and dehydrated fruits because they have a long shelf life… especially when you store them in the refrigerator or freezer. So, buy in bulk and save :)
Kristen Suzanne
Well, nuts in the US are really hard to find so I don't take a risk. I shop at www.realrawfood.com because the nuts are so cheap compared to Sunfood and Rawguru and I know the nuts are raw. They are also much better quality in my opinion than some other companies I have tried.
Check out rawvegansource.com. For a $10 lifetime membership, you can get good prices on raw food products. :)
Thanks. I have already checked out sunorganic and rawvegansource. :-)

The maximum error of the inverse fitting of Tada et al.'s equation of the a/W–crack mouth opening displacement (CMOD) compliance equation proposed by Joyce and adopted in ASTM E1820-11 for single edge bend [SE(B)] specimens with shallow cracks (0.05 ≤ a/W < 0.45) is observed to be 2.03 % for 0.05 < a/W < 0.1. A new a/W–CMOD compliance equation with the same fifth-order polynomial fitting applicable for SE(B) specimens with 0.05 ≤ a/W ≤ 0.7 is therefore proposed. The maximum fitting error of the proposed equation is approximately 0.19 %.

SAN DIEGO – Holy shift, Batman.
The Dodgers took the newest defensive trend in baseball to a whole new extreme Friday night, but it wasn't enough to prevent a 3-2 loss to the San Diego Padres in 12 innings.
"Got ourselves in trouble and basically nearly got out of it," Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said.
Mattingly had exhausted his bullpen to get through 11 innings, getting five one-hit innings of relief from six pitchers, then turning to demoted starter Kevin Correia for the bottom of the 12th.
Correia gave up a leadoff single to Alexi Amarista and walked two to load the bases with one out.
The Dodgers shifted into a five-man infield for the second walk (to Abraham Almonte) and stayed with it for left-handed hitting Seth Smith – with a twist.
The Dodgers lined up with four players (first baseman Adrian Gonzalez, second baseman Dee Gordon, shortstop Miguel Rojas and center fielder Andre Ethier) stacked across the right side of the infield and playing in just off the grass.
After the game, it was hard to find anyone who had seen that before – including special assistant to the GM Pat Corrales, with over 50 years in baseball.
"That's a first, maybe," said bench coach Tim Wallach, who handles the Dodgers' defensive alignments. "He (Smith) hits a lot of ground balls over there.
"Three's good. Four's better, right?"
It worked. Smith hit a hard ground ball at Gordon, who threw home for the forceout. Smith beat catcher A.J. Ellis' relay to first base, avoiding an inning-ending double play.
"We've used the five-man infield before but never with four guys on one side," Mattingly said. "With Seth we shift anyway so we just put another guy over there."
They should have stuck with it for one more batter. After Correia ran the count full to Yasmani Grandal, Grandal bounced a ground ball through the right side – now just manned by Gordon and Gonzalez in a standard defensive alignment – and into right field for the winning single.
"It's his game at that point," Mattingly said of turning to Correia in the 12th. "In that count, you've got to throw a strike."
The Dodgers outhit the Padres 11-8 but went 1 for 9 with runners in scoring position, wasting a leadoff double by Justin Turner in the fifth inning in one fruitless scoring opportunity and stranding the bases loaded in the top of the ninth.

For-profit colleges have been the talk of the town in Washington over the last week, with legislators concerned by their rapid growth and what they consider a resulting lack of oversight.
Yesterday, a group of Democratic lawmakers called for a federal review of for-profit colleges, their recruitment strategies, and the value of what they provide students. In the letter they sent to the Government Accountability Office, the lawmakers were especially concerned about the fact that the for-profit sector accounts for less than 10 percent of total enrollments but about 25 percent of federal financial aid disbursements. According to an article in The New York Times this week, for-profit colleges collected $26.5 billion in federal funding last year, compared to $4.6 billion in 2000.
The letter came just after the U.S. Department of Education's proposal that for-profit colleges be more forthright about students' potential loan debt relative to their incomes, even going so far as to propose limiting federal aid to those colleges with the most uneven debt-income ratios. The for-profit colleges themselves have said that they would be comfortable with disclosing graduation- and job-placement rates and median debt levels, but that limiting federal aid would certainly force many of them into insolvency.
One case in Illinois serves as a cautionary tale, and an example of what is so troubling to legislators. The Illinois State Board of Education has launched an investigation of the Illinois School of Health Careers' patient care technician program in Chicago after a group of students decided to file a class-action lawsuit against the institution. The students say they were misled into thinking that they would be able to take the state's certified nursing assistant exams upon completion of the program. In fact, the program lacks the proper approvals from the Illinois Department of Public Health, leaving students with student loan debt and instruction in a field they say offers few, if any, job prospects.
Supporters of for-profit colleges say the schools are important in serving a population looking to learn a particular trade or get out into the workforce more quickly. Republican lawmakers on the other side of the issue have said Congress should be more concerned about looking for ways to monitor the bad eggs among the bunch and not be so skeptical of an entire industry, according to The New York Times article. Representatives for the Career College Association have said accredited institutions that focus on career-preparedness are critical in meeting President Obama's goal of getting the United States on top in terms of higher education by 2020.
Most for-profit schools don't report the kinds of dissatisfaction felt by those students at the Chicago school described above and are a good option for many students, especially those seeking flexible alternatives. The key is quality control. If you're interested in a career college or an online degree university, do your own research. Make sure your intended school is accredited, as this means it meets a set of standards set forth by the U.S. Department of Education. Make sure the college you'll be paying for—and may be paying for years down the line, even after graduation—is not only legitimate but worth paying for.

An analysis of long-term data conducted by The Chronicle of Higher Education has found that the number of students who default on their loans is far greater than what the federal government has been reporting. According to the data, about one in every five federal student loans overall has gone into default since 1995; the default rate for student loans covering costs at for-profit colleges is even higher, at 40 percent. The default rate for community college students is about 31 percent.
The federal government's numbers are much lower. The U.S. Department of Education reported default rates for federally guaranteed student loans at about 6.9 percent for fiscal year 2007's cohort. Why the disparity? The Chronicle says the government's numbers only show those students who defaulted on their loans two years after entering repayment. The Chronicle's analysis looks at 15 years of data. According to their new analysis, default rates only worsened as time went on, increasing years after those borrowers had left college.
For-profit colleges have already been getting some negative attention lately, with legislators concerned about the share of federal financial aid the schools receive compared to their total enrollment numbers. (The for-profit sector accounts for less than 10 percent of total enrollments but about 25 percent of federal financial aid disbursements.) This new data certainly won't help them. If the federal government moves to pass rules on student loan default rates, a number of those institutions could be at risk for losing federal aid if they cannot improve their numbers. According to the Chronicle, there are a number of for-profit colleges out there that have default rates even higher than 40 percent, including the Tesst College of Technology and Chicago's College of Office Technology.
No matter how you skeptically you look at the numbers—critics of the data have already said the numbers don't consider the economy and the demographics and total enrolled at community college and for-profit universities versus four-year institutions—default rates should be taken seriously. Defaulting on your student loan is never a good idea. It hurts your credit, and any wages you do have may be seized by the government that issued you that loan. It'll then be harder to not only make ends meet, but to get other loans years down the line, including mortgages and new credit cards. You may also be faced with higher interest rates if you are able to land that car loan. You can see now how important it is to borrow responsibly and make sure that if you do need to take out student loans, you're doing so to pay for the costs of an accredited program that will help you land a decent job after graduation.

The financial overhaul bill approved last night by the U.S. Senate won't only increase government oversight to prevent another economic collapse. Students who use debit and credit cards or who have taken out or plan to take out private student loans will also benefit.
The bill includes the creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, an independent entity that will exist within the Federal Reserve to protect borrowers. What does this mean for students? The bureau will be there to protect students from abusive lending, and gives students a point of resolution if they feel they have issues with their private lenders, according to an article on the measure in The Chronicle of Higher Education.
The bill also requires that debit and credit card companies lower the fees that colleges must pay when students use the cards. Currently, companies are charging "swipe fees" of 1 to 2 percent of transaction amounts, according to The Chronicle, putting quite a bit of pressure on struggling college bookstores. The legislation next goes to President Obama, who is expected to sign off on it. Also in the bill, the government will get more power to shut down companies that pose a threat to the country's financial system. As the troubled economy has led to marked changes in higher education, including increases in tuition and fees, the introduction of wait lists at colleges that had never used them before, and, in worst-case scenarios, the shuttering of colleges, the bill could even give struggling schools some sense of hope.
Pell Grants could also see a boost if a spending bill approved by the U.S. House of Representatives' Appropriations Committee yesterday continues to move through Congress. According to another article in The Chronicle, the bill would raise spending on Pell Grants by $5.7 billion for the 2011 fiscal year, keeping the federal grants at the maximum levels of $5,550 per eligible student. The Federal Pell Grant, which is available to those students with the highest unmet financial need, has increased significantly over the years; students were able to receive $4,050 in the 2006-2007 academic year. The panel also approved an additional $1 billion for the National Institute of Health. According to The Chronicle, legislators hope that funding could go toward "translating basic research results into practical and available cures and treatments."

A financial aid officer at a for-profit college that closed this week has been charged with felony theft of more than $7,600 in students' tuition payments. The school, Ascension College in Louisiana, closed quite suddenly to the surprise of the students there, and has been under investigation for what officials say is a misuse of federal aid.
According to an article in The Chronicle of Higher Education, the school had to close when the U.S. Department of Education ruled that it was no longer eligible for federal aid, the school's primary source of income, based on new rules targeting for-profits. The school already had financial problems before the Education Department's decision. In recent weeks, students had begun to complain about the cost of their educations there versus the quality. The school had been awarding certificates in fields like office administration and dental assistance.
The news comes on the heels of a report released today by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) pointing to evidence that recruiters at for-profit colleges encouraged prospective students to lie on financial aid applications in order to receive more federal funding. The report also shows widespread misinformation from the recruiters about the cost of their for-profit programs, their quality, and how much money graduates would be expected to make once they received their degrees.
The GAO used four undercover investigators posing as potential students at 15 for-profit colleges to get the information. Recruiters at four of those 15 encouraged financial aid fraud; in one example, a recruiter suggested an applicant not report $250,000 in savings when applying for aid. All 15 of the for-profit recruiters made statements the GAO described as "deceptive or otherwise questionable" in their report. In one example, a recruiter based tuition costs on nine months of classes rather than 12, making the total costs seem much lower than they actually were. In another, a recruiter told an applicant that barbers can earn up to $250,000 a year, a gross exaggeration. The GAO also discovered how incessant some recruiters can be once they know a student is interested in a for-profit education. According to the report, one of the investigators received 180 phone calls in one month at all hours of the day and night after registering to receive information on for-profit colleges.
The GAO was quick to note, however, that there were instances where the investigators were given helpful information, such as warning students about borrowing beyond their means. While the report overall doesn't bode well for for-profits, especially at a time when legislators are watching the industry more closely and calling for more federal review, there are good options in the for-profit sector. For students looking to get into a particular trade, a flexible schedule, or alternatives to a traditional four-year university, for-profit schools do meet a need. The most important thing is to get your facts from a reliable source. Don't ever take everything a recruiter at any college, for-profit or not, says at face value. Do your own research in the college search to make sure you're making the right decision and investing wisely.

As an incoming college student, you've probably heard the term "freshman experience" a million times by now. Well, think of residence halls as feeding grounds for memories and experiences you can gain outside of the college classrooms: The social atmosphere of residence halls is the most basic way to build college connections and relationships and staying on campus during freshman year is essential to receiving that crash course to how life really is on a college campus.
Abby Egan is currently a junior at MCLA in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts, where she is an English Communications major with a concentration in writing and a minor in philosophy. Abby hopes to find work at a publishing company after college and someday publish some of her own work.

Maybe you grew up in a small town where everyone knows everyone and gossip spreads like wildfire. Or maybe you just want to experience something new. Whatever the case is, my advice to you is to see the world through studying abroad! Who am I to tell you what to do? My freshman year of college has been the best year of my life, partly because I studied abroad. For spring break, the Mays Business School sponsored 15 freshmen to travel to Paris; this trip gave me the travel bug so I started the process for my first study abroad trip.
Imagine the study abroad planning process like an upside-down pyramid: At the top you have, "I want to go somewhere!" but as you move down the pyramid, you narrow your search until you are left with the perfect trip for you. To get to that point, you need to answer these questions:
As you can see, study abroad encompasses many aspects but there are plenty of resources. The first place to begin your search is your school's study abroad office: Set up an appointment, attend a seminar, review the study abroad website or just swing by and look for flyers for different programs. There is something out there for everyone whether you want to learn a language, teach English, dive deeper into your major or explore a different culture. For example, during May and June, I studied with Sol Education Abroad in Costa Rica, took classes at a local university, lived with a host family (my most cherished part) and went on excursions with a great group of students from different colleges.
Everyone's study abroad is unique – I did it my freshman year and it helped me get ahead while I had the time of my life! – but it's on you to make the experience a reality. Bon voyage!

The crisis in Syria! The Bradley Manning sentencing! The fracking debate! Yet another random act of violence!
The media bombards us with information and news every second of every day – a sensory overload of grim stories and political biases. It's overwhelming but college can become a sort of bubble, a relaxing retreat from the cares of the outside world. You don't see the news unless you turn on your own TV or radio or follow a news site or newspaper. With all the other fun things to do, who's got time to be depressed and bored by other people's problems?
It's incredibly easy to feel that what you see on CNN doesn't affect you – a college student in America – but it does. You may not live in a small village in the Middle East but actions cause ripples and what happens across the globe may, in any small way, touch your life. Some events will affect you directly. For example, President Obama recently signed a bill to restore lower interest rates on student loans: This directly affects you and me, who will now be paying a 3.4 percent interest rate on our loans as opposed to the previous 6.8 percent.
Current events are nearly always incendiary topics as well. You will encounter a diverse range of people in college with a diverse range of ideologies...and a shrug and a "Whatever, I don't really care about that" won't get you off the hook in discussions anymore. It's important to know where you stand and even more important to do your research, so as not to form a hasty assumption. First off, it will help you not to look like a buffoon or needlessly offend others and secondly, being able to form and articulate a well-thought argument is an invaluable skill!
Lastly, being cognizant of "the outside world" is an important development in the whole messy process of becoming an adult. Forming opinions, arguments and worldviews – and having them challenged – is a necessary part of life...especially in an environment such as college, where it's okay to make mistakes and learn from them. So don't let college become a bubble and cut you off from the vital circulation of ideas and news. Get (and stay) informed!
Mary Steffenhagen is a junior at Concordia University of Wisconsin who is majoring in English with a minor in business. She hopes to break into the publishing field after graduation, writing and editing to promote the spread of reliable information and quality literature; she is driven to use her skills to make a positive impact wherever she is placed. Mary spends much of her time making and drinking coffee, biking and reading dusty old books. In an alternate universe, she would be a glassblower.

Sure, anything Obama proposes is going to have detractors across the aisle politically. Perhaps due in part to his recent and seemingly more and more frequent use of executive action or just plain old typical partisanship, our president can scarcely do anything these days without intense scrutiny. Naturally, among the chief concerns of Obama's opponents on the matter is the increase in taxes that would be necessitated by such action. But let's discuss the other aspect of offering "free" college for all first.
Some people (perhaps none more than those who had to work before, during and/or after attending college to pay for the education and experience they received) may feel as though it would be beneficial for anybody who attends college, community or otherwise, to have some "skin in the game". Certainly, there is a certain psychological aspect to consider; the potential subconscious assignment of value to things that are "free" vs. the ones for which one has worked and saved to attain, isn't there? Definitely a point worth discussing and possible consideration when discussing the cost of college. Naturally, not all prospective beneficiaries of the "free college" plan would respond in the same way. Certainly, there are many who would take full advantage of such a program and benefit greatly from the opportunity, but would they comprise a large enough portion of the qualifying applicants to the program for it to be viable and sustainable?
Of course, there is also the debate about funding of such a plan. We all know that there is no "free" college or anything else in this world, so who ends up paying for the college education that the students in question would receive through such a plan? Should the taxpayers at large, whether they have kids or not, have already paid for their children to attend college, etc. be required to pay for other people and their children to attend college? Is this the only or, more importantly, the best solution to the problem of the rising cost of post-secondary education? Does anybody have a better idea?
Of course, at first glance, the idea of providing everyone with the opportunity for a free post-secondary education is very appealing to those who can't afford college. This would be, at the very least, a "leg-up" for those who don't have the money to pay for college; a chance to prove to themselves and perhaps to a school to which they might later transfer, that they possess the dedication and aptitude to earn a degree. But with the country still in tremendous debt and many college grads being forced to take jobs that don't require a college degree at all, is this a practical solution? Would students who were not paying take the opportunity for granted due to the lack of having invested any of their own money in the endeavor? Is this a solution that will actually accomplish the goal of providing education to those who need but cannot afford it? There are still many questions yet to be answered and, as always, we would love to offer our comments section for you to annotate and contribute to this debate.
So, what do you think? Should community college be free? Do you think students will do as well in such a situation as they would if they were required to pay tuition? How would you propose supporting such a program? C'mon, speak up and tell us your thoughts!

Like an automotive Young@Heart, Hua Tien-hau's Go Grandriders follows 17 octogenarians on a scooter journey across their native Taiwan.
Hua himself never directly comments upon or investigates the annual event so much as merely documents it; the insight comes courtesy of the riders' families and medical advisors, all of whom express a cautious optimism regarding the dangerous but rewarding endeavor. Grandriders mostly, but by no means always, avoids the more cloying or heartwarming aspects of its tale in favor of a frank account of the implications of aging in Taiwan—not just the obvious fact of mortality but also society's changing (and often unfair) conception of how the elderly are meant to carry on.
Threaded throughout are frequent updates on key participants' medical statuses—the captain who gets hospitalized early on and is more upset about not fulfilling his responsibilities to his team than he is about his declining health is a standout—and requisite shots of striking landscapes set to low-key acoustic guitar. The human spirit is often more resilient than the body it resides within, as Grandriders reminds us time and again, a message whose returns gradually diminish as the film goes on.
The other point made here is no more revelatory but hard to dispute: Getting old is difficult and sad, but it beats the alternative.Follow @VoiceFilmClub

Some parents in parts of New York are opting out of new standardized tests under the Common Core State Standards. The parents have informed the schools that their children will not take the exams, but it remains unclear what response the schools will give. Regulations require that 95% of a district's students take the standardized exams before school funding could be affected, and there is no law forcing students to take the tests.

This afternoon the House concurred in the changes the Senate made in HB 1050 - Omnibus Tax Changes. The House bill exempted half the price of a modular home from NC sales tax; the Senate removed that exemption. The House bill capped the privilege license tax on businesses at $100; the Senate eliminates the tax on July 1, 2015. Other differences between the two were minor.
NC civics note**[The state constitution requires that a bill pass each chamber in identical form before it can be ratified. When one chamber makes changes to a bill that started in the other chamber - in this case the Senate changed the House bill - the bill returns to the originating chamber for a concurrence vote. If the bill receives concurrence it can then be ratified; if not, both chambers appointment members to a conference committee to settle the differences and reach a compromise....they hope.]

While taking a class on infinity at Stanford in the late 1980s, Ravi Kapoor discovers that he is confronting the same mathematical and philosophical dilemmas that his mathematician grandfather had faced many decades earlier--and that had landed him in jail. Charged under an obscure blasphemy law in a small New Jersey town in 1919, Vijay Sahni is challenged by a skeptical judge to defend his belief that the certainty of mathematics can be extended to all human knowledge--including religion. Together, the two men discover the power--and the fallibility--of what has long been considered the pinnacle of human certainty, Euclidean geometry.
As grandfather and grandson struggle with the question of whether there can ever be absolute certainty in mathematics or life, they are forced to reconsider their fundamental beliefs and choices. Their stories hinge on their explorations of parallel developments in the study of geometry and infinity--and the mathematics throughout is as rigorous and fascinating as the narrative and characters are compelling and complex.
Moving and enlightening, A Certain Ambiguity is a story about what it means to face the extent--and the limits--of human knowledge.

Glencross has hat trick, Flames rout Oilers 8-1
EDMONTON, Alberta (AP) — The Calgary Flames were still bitter from a one-goal loss to the Nashville Predators on Friday night.
They took it out on the Edmonton Oilers a day later.
Curtis Glencross had a hat trick and Matt Stajan scored on a penalty shot and added three assists as the Flames scored four times in just over three minutes in the second period to cruise past the Edmonton Oilers 8-1 on Saturday night.
"What a great game," Flames coach Bob Hartley said. "We wanted to redeem ourselves from (Friday) night's game. I could see that the boys were not very impressed with the performance from last night. We just worked very simple, we were very effective and we scored some great goals."
Mike Cammalleri, Mark Giordano, Paul Byron and Kevin Westgarth also scored for the Flames, who lost 6-5 to the Predators on Friday. They have won four of their last six and are 26th overall in the NHL standings.
"It's been a challenge for us to produce offense this year," Cammalleri said. "It's nice to see pucks go in like they did. You don't expect to score eight goals every night, but it's nice to get that feeling where you feel like the puck is going to go in the net for us."
It was an emotional game for Stajan, who pointed up to the sky after scoring in honor of his newborn son, who died earlier this month.
"That one means a lot," he said. "It's been obviously not easy and that one was for the little guy. It felt good and it gave us some puck-luck after, too.
"We'll move on now and I'll remember that one forever."
Jeff Petry scored for the Oilers, who have lost two in a row and remain in second-to-last place in the league.
"It's pretty obvious how bad we played tonight. We are obviously very frustrated with how we played this game," Oilers forward David Perron said. "It is pretty embarrassing."
Oilers coach Dallas Eakins agreed that the fans were within their rights to voice their disgust.
"That was probably the longest last 15 minutes of a game that I have ever been involved with," he said. "I apologize to the fans who were here tonight and had to watch it."
The Flames went up 2-1 four minutes into the second period as Mikael Backlund sent a cross-ice pass to Cammalleri, who was able to pick the corner with a quick shot before Fasth could get across the net.
A minute later, Calgary had a two-goal advantage. Stajan was awarded a penalty shot after a slashing call on a breakaway from Edmonton defenseman Mark Fraser. Stajan made the most of the 1-on-1 opportunity, beating Fasth glove-side with a backhand shot.
The Flames scored their third goal in a span of 1:47 as Cammalleri stopped short on a quick breakout and allowed two Edmonton defensemen to go sliding past before feeding the puck to Byron at the side of the net.

The Atlanta Falcons today signed first round draft pick (24th overall) defensive tackle Peria Jerry. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The Atlanta Falcons waived cornerback David Irons on Tuesday.
COWETA, Okla. - Rick Bryan, an All-America defensive end at Oklahoma who played his entire NFL career with the Atlanta Falcons, has died. He was 47.
Atlanta Falcons single-game ticket sales for the upcoming season begin at 10 a.m. on Saturday. The date coincides with the opening of the team's training camp in Flowery Branch.
The Atlanta Falcons today signed second round draft pick safety William Moore. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Moore, 6-0, 227 pounds, started 32 of 48 games at the University of Missouri and finished his career with 284 tackles (182 solo), three sacks, 17.0 tackles for loss, 22 passes defensed and six forced fumbles.
He totaled 11 interceptions in his collegiate career for 162 yards and set a school record by returning four for touchdowns, breaking Erik McMillan's previous mark.
ATLANTA - The Atlanta Falcons may be looking for offensive line depth after veteran Jeremy Newberry, signed by the team in June, retired.
The mood around Falcons camp is different this summer. Last year's hope of avoiding further catastrophe has been replaced by the expectation of success.
The Atlanta Falcons signed fourth round draft pick defensive end Lawrence Sidbury on Thursday. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Sidbury, 6-3, 265 pounds, started in 31 of 52 career games at the University of Richmond, recording 145 tackles, 20.5 sacks and 38 tackles for loss.
Atlanta Falcons Owner and CEO Arthur M. Blank announced agreements with Ronald E. Canakaris, Douglas J. Hertz, Ed Mendel and Derek V. Smith for each to take a minority ownership position in Atlanta Falcons Football Club, LLC on Tuesday.
Vance Walker wasn't the first defensive tackle the Atlanta Falcons chose in the 2009 NFL draft, but he might be the most well-known in Georgia. After a stellar four-year career at Georgia Tech, Walker is making the short move to Flowery Branch and says he couldn't be happier about it. Walker spoke with The Times sports editor Brent Holloway recently about his hometown celebrity status, what he's doing to get better during his down time and his addiction to video games.
For 14 consecutive years the University of Miami had at least one player drafted in the first round of the NFL draft, but that streak came to an end this year. In fact, the only member of the 2008 Hurricanes to get drafted was Spencer Adkins, who was selected in the sixth round by the Atlanta Falcons. Recently the linebacker sat down with Times sports reporter Jonathan Zopf to talk about life at "The U," why he chose to be a sociology major, and how the heat of Atlanta differs from Miami.
At 6-foot-8, Garrett Reynolds is accustomed to the view from above the crowd. But as a rookie on the Atlanta Falcons offensive line, he's finding himself looking up the depth chart for the first time since he was a freshman at North Carolina. The jolly giant who the Falcons picked in the fifth round of April's NFL draft spoke with The Times sports editor Brent Holloway recently about his background in football, the growth spurt that landed him a college scholarship, and his first Organized Team Activities with the Falcons.
FLOWERY BRANCH - The Atlanta Falcons have signed their sixth-round draft choice, linebacker Spencer Adkins.
A two-sport star at Marist, William Middleton left high school with a state championship in football and baseball in his possession. After spending four years at Furman, Middleton is back in Atlanta playing for his hometown Falcons. Recently the fifth-round draft pick sat down with Times sports reporter Jonathan Zopf to talk about playing for his hometown team, giving up baseball and what it's like to be known as a small cornerback.
FLOWERY BRANCH - Matt Ryan's Atlanta Falcons teammates say the quarterback will be even better in 2009 than he was when he won widespread acclaim as the NFL's offensive rookie of the year in 2008.
Page 72 of 100
LAWRENCEVILLE- The Atlanta Falcons waived linebacker Prince Shembo on Friday, shortly after he was charged with aggravated animal cruelty.
FLOWERY BRANCH - Devonta Freeman believes he is next in line to be the Falcons' starting running back.

By using uniquely paleontological data about pattern to infer the unseeable processes of long temporal spans, paleontology may be an active purveyor of evolutionary theory.
This strategy of using uniquely paleontological data about tempo to infer mode, and thus to develop theory directly from the domain of macroevolution, pervades Simpson's book and underlies all his examples. To cite just two cases:
Among leaders of the second phase of the synthesis, only Simpson was well trained mathematically, and only he could read the primary source material of the first phase with full understanding. (Dobzhansky, for example, often stated that he adopted a "father knows best" approach in his collaborations with Sewall Wright—that is, he simply accepted Wright's verbal interpretation because he could not understand Wright's equations in their own joint papers!) Simpson was mathematically adept and a particularly fine statistician. His textbook, Quantitative Zoology, written with his wife Anne Roe, was a standard source for decades, and remains unmatched for clarity and well-chosen examples. How ironic that words built the bridge to the second phase, while formulae constructed the pillars and anchor of the first phase—so that, with Simpson's exception, the crucial linkage rested upon faith.

Climate zone maps were invented to help gardeners determine which plants
would thrive in their region. Unfortunately, those maps can confuse the heck out
of Long Islanders.
A glance at the USDA Hardiness Zone Map places Long Island in zone 7a. But the
National Gardening Association, another reputable source, has an online map that
places Long Island and Queens squarely in 6b. Often, plants that are suitable
for 6b also are zoned for 7a. But what if one wants to plant Spider lily (Hymenocallis
liriosome), which is suited only to zones 7-11? If you subscribe to the NGA map,
you have a bit of a conundrum.
Most of Long Island belongs in zone 7a, says Kim Kaplan, spokeswoman for the
Agricultural Research Service, the in- house research agency of the U.S.
Department of Agriculture. But Suffolk County has two zones. An oval of 6b runs
through the center of the county because it's more protected from ocean winds,
Kaplan says. That oval is surrounded by a zone of 7a.
Vincent Simeone, director of Planting Fields Arboretum State Historic Park in
Oyster Bay, concurs. "Most of Long Island is in 7a, no doubt about it," he says.
Currently, there isn't a way to pinpoint which communities fall into Suffolk's
6b oval. The official USDA plant hardiness zone map was created in 1990, before
the dawning of the Internet age. "It is literally a hand scan of our
4-foot-by-4-foot map covering all of North America," Kaplan says. "County lines
are designated on the map, but towns are not."
The USDA is working on a new and improved digital map that will be interactive.
"Users will be able to click on a town and get specific information for their
exact location," Kaplan says.
The current USDA map is based on minimum winter temperature averages from 1974
to 1987. Maps that place Long Island in different zones might take different
years into account. Some might rely on weighted averages; others simple
averages. "We're asking the map to predict the future based on the past," Kaplan
says. "This is our best guideline."
The National Garden Association Web site maintains the map has its shortcomings:
"In the eastern half of the country, the USDA map doesn't account for the
beneficial effect of a snow cover over perennial plants, the regularity or
absence of freeze-thaw cycles, or soil drainage during cold periods."
John Gonter, business development manager for the NGA, attributes the difference
to the subjective nature of hardiness zones. "Our ZIP code finder is a manual
replication. Somebody looking at the map used their judgment and made the
decision that Long Island is in zone 6b," he says.
The National Arbor Day Foundation, meanwhile, has recently released a new zone
map to reflect rising temperatures it attributes to global warming. The
foundation based its new map on information collected from 5,000 National
Climatic Data Center cooperative stations across the continental United States
over the past 15 years.
The research shows that significant portions of many states, such as Illinois,
Indiana and Ohio, have shifted one full hardiness zone. Some areas of the
country have warmed two full zones.
Long Island, however, was unaffected and remains in zone 7 on the new map.
To fall into zone 6b, an area must have registered an average winter low
temperature between zero and 5 below. Zone 7a connotes a region with lows from 5
to zero degrees. But that doesn't necessitate a span of 5 to 10 degrees. It
could mean a difference of as little as 2 degrees. Technically, if your backyard
has an average of 1 degree, you fall into 7a; if your garden is a minus 1, then
you're in 6b.
To confuse things even further, let's examine a phenomenon known as The
Microclimate. Long Island is surrounded by water. That mitigates to the warm
because water holds heat but also exposes us to cold winds that come along from
the east without obstruction.
Your yard has many different microclimates in it. Even if your property is in
that central Suffolk 6b oval, all or part of your yard could be a 7a. Shelter
created by trees, a garage or a fence can place one particular section of the
same lot in an entirely different zone, regardless of what county you live in.
"There might be a sheltered area where the wind doesn't blow across quite as
much as on your neighbor's property," Kaplan says. That could explain why a
particular plant thrives next door but languishes for you.
In the city, concrete and blacktop hold a lot of heat. Green spaces tend to be
colder. So if your home backs up to a park, it might fall into a cooler zone.
When will the new-and-improved, clickable USDA map be available? "In the near
future," Kaplan says. When could that be? Kaplan says she hopes within a year
but is noncommittal, saying, "we can't put science on a schedule."
"Scientists are working on it now. Then, it will go through a technical review,
and finally graphic artists will create a Web site around it."
In the meantime, gardeners would do well to take into account all the resources
available to them, and to familiarize themselves with their own microclimates.

Port Clinton, Ohio - The first day officially over, the United States Army Marksmanship Unit's Staff Sergeant Tyrel Cooper has taken the lead in the NRA's National High Power Rifle Championships. After outshooting Carl Bernosky and USAMU teammate Sergeant Sherri Gallagher in the Coast Artillery Trophy Match, Cooper finished with a top score of 598-30x.
SSG Cooper leads Gallagher by just two X's and is a scoring point ahead of Bernosky. And he better keep that one scoring point lead as 2011 High Power Rifle champ Bernosky is sporting 39Xs. That means he will take back the lead in the event of tie.
One thing to note is that SSG Cooper is shooting a Service Rifle. SGT Gallagher and Bernosky, on the other hand, are shooting Match Rifles. Match Rifles are more customized for the individual needs and wants of the competitor while Service Rifles are more of a standard, no frills version of the firearm. That might not sound like much, but there is a huge difference. That's why no Service Rifle shooter has bested the Match Rifle competitor in the NRA High Power Rifle Championships since 1987. That's when Army Staff Sergeant Greg A. Strom posted a 2356-79x to beat out Patrick M. McCann's 2352-99x.
SSG Cooper is a two-time NRA Service Rifle champion, winning the DuPont Trophy in 2008 and again in 2011. His reputation as a strong shooter means that we might be witnessing a seldom seen occurrence in the High Power Rifle Championships. How will SSG Cooper fare against the other competitors today? You never know.
Here's what's in store for the firing line:
Weather forecasts suggests we'll be seeing the same thing we saw yesterday - temperature in the 80s with little chance of rain - but at Camp Perry you never know when a storm will be suddenly thrown you way.
Below are a few moments from yesterday's matches:

Ferrari SA Aperta: exclusive first drive
Posted: 19 Apr 2011
It doesn't help that the Ferrari is show-stoppingly arresting. This particular car is slicked in triple-layer paint so deep that it makes you want to lick it, and the clearcoat lounges so liquidly on the Aperta's bodywork that you fear it may slide right off. It's like an old-fashioned hot-rod candy colour, lacquered to triple dimensions. It adorns a car designed and produced to celebrate the 80th anniversary of styling house Pininfarina (Sergio and Andrea is the 'SA' bit; 'Aperta' means 'open' in Italian).

Original digital art by the poet.
"There is movement in the shadow of a sun that is old now. There, just there. Coming from the rim of the world."
Toni Morrison, Family and History
The black and white photo shows you seated
in a wooden chair on the porch of a cabin
built likely by slaves, later inhabited by you:
Black American Woman Elsie Mary Bell Griffin.
One side of the image is shadowed
like the memories, the love, and perseverance
that shape your face into a hymn of quiet dignity.
The planks of the cabin's wall are straight.
Like the rows of crops you used to hoe.
The window a rectangle of inked mysteries.
From a western corner of the late summer sky
light streams brilliant wonder into the picture,
rushing through leaves to kiss your head and arms.
Thus your eternal spirit confirms your weary blue bones.
Nowhere in the photo do we see the chopped-off heads
of snakes you later fed to the hogs. Their writhing corpses
would help explain the heavy boots that shelter your feet.
The news this year is a black man in the white house.
Perhaps when alive you shook his hand in a prophetic dream...
Your tears bled yesterday sealed the victory claimed today.
The light somehow is like a gentle jealous god
come to claim you solely for its own. The strength
of your calm gives you the power to surrender everything.
Bright rapture flows and you whisper, "Blessed be my Lord."
Radiance splits your heart and your soul explodes three new stars.
Death rattles the tin roof and you command, "Peace, be still."

As previously reported here and here, oil and gas companies are seeking innovative and economical solutions to decrease their reliance on fresh water in hydraulic fracturing operations. Although obstacles remain, water recycling may prove to be one such economical solution.
Water recycling during hydraulic fracturing operations still faces practical obstacles because alternatives like injecting the water into disposal wells remain cheaper. However, as water recycling technologies improve, more companies are implementing and offering new recycling methods. Companies like Neohydro Corp, Water Rescue Services, Pure Stream, STW Resources, Ecologix and others seek to offer more efficient and economical solutions to water recycling. Water Rescue Services statically charges the water so that waste particles can be easily removed. Other companies, like STW Resources, rely on flash vacuum distillation, which consists of boiling wastewater under high pressure to separate out all the toxic chemicals. Houston-based Neohydro Corp. uses electricity to create water-cleaning oxidants and can be used onsite at an oil well.
Regulators are also offering their support and encouragement. For example, the Texas Railroad Commission revamped its permitting rules in March to eliminate the need for drillers to get permits for on-site recycling. The Commission also clarified permitting requirements, so applicants can more easily apply for permits.
Although the challenge of finding a cost effective solution remains, technological and regulatory indicators show that recycling of frack water is likely to grow.

Back to basics has become the order of the day at the Forest Wildlife Management Division, Jannaram, where a refurbished Environment Education Centre (EEC) will introduce people to fundamental information on Kawal Tiger Reserve (KTR).
EEC awaits formal opening
Though the facility situated on the Jannaram-Dandepally road awaits formal opening, it has already started attracting visitors.
Those who happen to visit Jannaram invariably invite themselves inside the EEC owing to the tremendous curiosity generated by the model of a family of the large Indian gaur or bison at the entrance. Once inside, the visitors simply marvel at the exhibits of wild animals and birds which are natives to the KTR.
"The EEC at Jannaram is different from such centres elsewhere. As everything on display in it is related to Kawal, visitors get to know about the rich bio-diversity of this relatively unknown haven," says Divisional Forest Officer heading the KTR management, G. Rama Krishna Rao.
"As it is the indicator species of KTR, the gaur has been exhibited at the entrance. The most important factor associated with this largest of bovines in South Asia is that tigers will come and settle here owing to its population," Mr. Rao explains.
Once inside the small building of the EEC, visitors get to see the images of the leopard, the sloth bear, the wild dogs and the deer which form a very important part of the food chain in the forest.
The posters on all aspects of the Kawal Tiger Reserve including the history of conservation, biodiversity of the place, tiger corridors, participation of community in conservation and efforts to improve habitat enlighten them.
The callers are not deprived of entertainment as the authorities have set up contraptions which give out sounds of wild animals and birds on the press of a button.
The model huts of tribal inhabitants of forest coming up within the premises tell a lot about the oneness of the aboriginal people with the nature.
