Las Cruces is Host City for National Show
By S. Derrickson Moore, Las Cruces Sun-News, N.M.
Jul. 4–LAS CRUCES — Happy trails to us. Because we "represent the heart and soul of America," Las Cruces has been selected as the April 2009 host city for the next season of a unique reality TV show, "Best of America By Horseback," an honor expected to draw thousands of horses and their riders here and attract millions of viewers.
"Las Cruces was chosen primarily due to the friendliness of the people, because of their work to encourage tourism and the quality of their government leadership. Further, we feel Las Cruces best represents the heart and soul of America. Other cities considered included El Paso, San Diego, Phoenix and Fort Worth, among many others. Neither the cities nor their staff had any knowledge they were evaluated and considered," said Michelle Turner, the show's public relations director.
Turner announced plans are underway to initiate a new horseback adventure across America.
"The horseback trail ride will begin in late April of 2009 in Las Cruces and conclude in Canada in September of 2009," she said.
In 1995, the show's producers, Tom and Pat Seay, organized the Transcontinental Trail Ride from the Atlantic to the Pacific which was covered by CNN and several other media outlets and featured in a
European television documentary on the American West. The event inspired the "Best of America by Horseback" television series, which airs three times each week on RFD-TV, with 10 million viewers per week via DirecTV, Dish Network, Comcast, Mediacom and other outlets.
"In addition to their regular shows, "Best of America by Horseback' will be producing a whole new television series based on this trail ride. It will be filmed in high definition for the new series by director Pat Seay and cameraman/assistant editor, David Londrey. All of the 2,000 riders who have ridden with us in the past year will be invited to ride with us for the kick off in Las Cruces. The Back Country Horsemen chapters across America will assist in coordinating the route and will join the ride," Turner said.
"Of my entire career, this will certainly be the highlight. I am looking forward to coming to Las Cruces, not only for this ride, but to visit with people who have impressed us so much," Tom Seay stated in an announcement of the city's choice as host.
Turner said the show's producers are researching local resources.
"Plans are under way and we are searching for a gathering place for riders from all over the country, a facility to host a reception and banquet for the kick-off, which will include national sponsors in attendance, and perhaps a parade in which the people of Las Cruces may participate and ride for the show. "Best of America by Horseback's' featured Western entertainer, Del Shields, will provide a music concert for the celebration. I am looking forward to meeting Mayor Ken Miyagishima and working with Carolyn Horner (the mayor's administrative assistant) to coordinate a wide range of activities that will celebrate Las Cruces and the beginning of a great American adventure," Turner said.
Horner said she hopes to meet with producers in July and invited those interested in working with the project to contact her at (575) 541-2067.
"I'm a fan of the show, and as a horse person myself, I'm very excited that the show is coming here, and about working with them and local people to provide the facilities and things they require," Horner said.

HUNTINGTON BEACH – Families heading to the city beach with plans for a barbecue this weekend will find something missing.
City workers removed half of the bonfire pits on Huntington City Beach earlier this month to help the Community Services Department meet a $303,000 budget reduction. The removal was done about a month before the City Council is set to take an official vote on proposals for citywide cuts totaling about $4 million to deal with a budget shortfall.
Some people at the beach Friday said the pits should stay for s'mores sake.
"It is already hard enough to get a pit as it is," said Katie Lowry, 20, of Covina. "You will have to come early in the morning and camp out."
Kimberly Walden, 28 of Cypress, said the pits were a staple of the beach community.
"Especially in the summertime people come down here and have a barbecue and hang out," she said. "I think it is a big asset to the beach."
So far, 84 of the city's 167 pits have been removed. Community Services Director Jim Engle said the action was needed before the council's March 1 vote to save staff hours.
Permanently eliminating half the fire pits will save about $11,800 in labor costs and $12,000 in operating costs, Engle said.
It will also limit the city's liability for injuries, he said. Four claims were filed against the city and state last week after a toddler and teen were burned by the pits. The state rejected the claims, and the city is investigating the incident.
The city beach runs from about Beach Boulevard up to Dog Beach. To the north is Bolsa Chica and Huntington state beaches which are not impacted by the city budget cuts.
If the council votes to keep the pits, they will be replaced, Engle said.
Engle contends the public will not be affected by the early removal of the fire pits. He said only about two dozen are in use at one time during the winter season and there are 83 pits available.
"This is offseason at the beach, and we don't have the same public demand for fire rings, though we still expend staff hours to check all of them and remove ashes and debris as needed during the graveyard shift," Engle said. "If it's a nice day, we still get crowds at the beach, but fire rings don't get the same usage during chilly, offseason nights."
Cutting $4 million
Closing the fire pits is on a list of recommended budget cuts given to the City Council Tuesday.

Western intelligence talking to Damascus: minister
Published on Jan 16, 2014 4:37 AM
LONDON (AFP) - Western intelligence officials visited Syria to discuss security cooperation with the regime against Islamist extremists among the Syrian opposition, a senior Damascus official claimed to the BBC.
US officials denied the report, which comes amid mounting concern in Western capitals about Syria's civil war drawing in foreign radical fighters who may return to carry out attacks in the homelands.
Syrian Deputy Foreign Minister Faisal Mekdad told the BBC the alleged visits to Damascus pointed to a "schism" between what Western politicians say about President Bashar al-Assad's regime and what Western security services do in practice.
Separately, the Wall Street Journal newspaper reported that British, German, French and Spanish agencies have been speaking to Assad regime officials since mid-2013.

WALLA WALLA - A pot of boiling water tosses elbow macaroni around to a tender but firm consistency. Karin Bowman and Paula Merson tend to the oversized pot, adding cool water to halt the cooking before carefully emptying the water into a drain built into the ground.
Warmed milk, margarine, and shreds of cheese are added to the pasta to make a smooth, creamy dish. The macaroni and cheese for the day, enough to serve about 80 students, is nearly done.
The time is just before 10 a.m. at Sharpstein Elementary, and the kitchen employees have been at work since about 5 a.m. preparing the day's meals.
Each day, hundreds of meals are served at each of the district's 10 schools, with more than 3,000 lunches eaten in a single day. A majority of those lunches - nearly 2,000 - are eaten by elementary school children. Those figures don't include the hundreds of breakfasts served weekly.
In recent years, school meals and nutrition have become hot topics, leading to drastic changes in what is prepared and how it is offered in schools. First Lady Michelle Obama launched the Let's Move initiative, to encourage healthier meals at schools and at home, and to get kids outdoors and active.
And television personality Jamie Oliver - also known as the Naked Chef - continued the conversation with his recent "Food Revolution" reality show, where he challenged schools and families to replace processed foods with fresh meals.
Walla Walla Public Schools participate in the National School Lunch Program, which gives schools subsidies for meals - many of which are served free to children who meet guidelines. Federal participation has helped bring positive changes, but still presents challenges in what children are served.
Among the changes has been more fresh fruits and vegetables offered every day. New guidelines also increased the amount of whole grains being offered, cut back on sugars and fats, and did away with fried foods.
The challenges include tight budgets that encourage using precooked, frozen foods that require less labor to prepare. But along with those offerings are "Chef's Choice," or in-house cooked meals - like the macaroni and cheese - that are offered three days a week and give a break from the pizza, hamburgers, chicken nuggets and burritos that are synonymous as kid-friendly fare and ubiquitous on school menus.
For Pam Milleson, director of the Walla Walla Public Schools Food Services department, the balance is in offering choices children will eat, while staying within the $2.74 that the government reimburses per child.
"We would love to be able to do that," she said about Oliver's Food Revolution. "But we can't do that on $2.74."
That sum is the federal reimbursement for meals offered free to children. Walla Walla is a high poverty region, where just over 50 percent of public school students qualify for free or reduced-price meals.
Money from the federal subsidies, and from families who pay out-of-pocket, cover the cost of the district's Food Services program, which operates like a small business within the district. Milleson said the cost of a meal covers food and supplies, and the salaries and benefits of her employees.
To save costs, Walla Walla Public Schools belongs to the Three Rivers Cooperative, Milleson said. With more than a dozen districts participating, food departments are able to get the best prices from food vendors.
Walla Walla has three main vendors: Food Services of America for its commodity foods; Bill's Produce of Yakima for fresh fruits and vegetables; and Daisy Milk for its dairy.
Food Services of America offers canned goods as well as precooked meals and meats that are expected to meet child nutrition and food-preparation standards.
Most school entrees are frozen and arrive precooked. Raw meat is rarely handled in the kitchens, except during Thanksgiving when turkeys are made from scratch. And there are also multiple entrees to choose from every day.
So while the macaroni and cheese was cooking at Sharpstein, the kitchen staff finished preparing the day's other offerings. Chicken nuggets warming in an oven were checked to see if they'd reached the right internal temperature.
Bowman opened the oven door, and speared four nuggets from a tray with an instant read thermometer. The indicator pushed just over 170 degrees.
"A little hot, but that's good," she explained. Target temperatures are between 140 and 160 degrees when warming frozen entrees, she said.
Around the kitchen, other items were waiting. Hamburgers on a tray were steamed and ready to be placed between buns and wrapped. Trays of pizzas emerged. Burritos were heating.
Preparing the other four entrees took less labor than the macaroni and cheese, when clean-up is factored. All five dishes would eventually be offered to children, with the knowledge that some kids will be drawn to particular items.
While some parents may cringe at the thought of burgers, pizza and nuggets as the daily norm, Milleson believes part of it is in the eye of the beholder. A child who picks a hamburger for the day is getting a serving of grains through the bun, and a helping of protein through the beef.
There are also many possibilities to build on that burger with lettuce, tomato slices and even jalapeos among the daily vegetable choices.
"Getting kids to eat is our main goal," she said.
Milleson said the key is encouraging children to make healthy choices on their own. That often takes the work of not just schools, but families.
"I think it has to be in partnership," she said. "It's been an age-old problem, getting kids to eat vegetables."
Bowman encouraged parents critical of the food services program to come and visit their school's cafeteria.
"I think parents have to really come and see what the children have to choose from," Bowman said. "We have spinach, and all this healthy stuff that some kids probably never see at home. We have so many different choices, they don't have to have pizza every day."

Church of St Mary the Virgin - Prittlewell
There has been a church on this site for well over 1000 years and the church at Prittlewell is mentioned in the Doomsday Survey of 1086.Over the years, various additions were made to the church and in the 15th century the magnificent tower was built together with a porch and an eastern wall that now forms part of the Jesus Chapel. Since then the structure of the church remains unaltered save for the addition of the vestries in modern times. When the town of Southend-on-Sea was established at the 'Southe Ende' of Prittlewell village, the church of St. Mary the Virgin became the mother church of Southend. Whilst Prittlewell has remained modest in size over the past 100 years, Southend, has increased dramatically and merged with Shoeburyness, Westcliff and Leigh on Sea. An honour roll for servicemen of the area who died in the two world wars is on display in the church porch
For years it was very popular to be married by Rev Ireland at St Mary's, especially as WWII was coming to an end and the menfolk started returning to the Borough

The Kursaal
This area is known to both visitors to Southend and locals alike.
Sadly it is a mere shadow of its former self when on its four acres, it had numerous outdoor rides and all the fun of the fair.

Southend on Sea Pier
The pier at Southend on Sea has a long and checkered history going back to 1830 when the first pier of a wooden construction was completed. As trips to the seaside became popular it was not possible to reach Southend by boat as the area is fairly flat, so a long pier was necessary for boats to be able to tie up. Over the years the pier has been extended in length, rebuilt and caught fire a number of times. At this present time it is the longest pleasure pier in the world at 1.34 miles. As the pier is so long there is a half hourly train service covering the length of the pier. There are a number of different combinations of tickets available, details are available on the website. Because of its long history there is also a museum to visit which covers its history. Because the museum is not open every day it is best the check its website. http://www.southendpiermuseum.co.uk/

Adventure Island: Interesting park
Visited whilst on weekends opening,
A interestingly located park, right next to the seafront at the end of the city centre road.
Free entry, and park has a range of rides and games for everyone.
You can pay for rides individually(£1.60 per ticket) 1 ticket for kids rides and 2 tickets for adult/intense rides. Or a wrist band (£22 per adult/£14 for child)
Good grouping of rides and plenty of on-site food choices.
There are two rides which aren't covered by the wristband - Dodgems and Go-karts, the go-karts seems a little slow, but a typical oval design.
Worth a visit here, and my favorite rides are the Tidal Wave Blue(Water ride) and Ramba Zamba.

Still the courses themselves didn't really go too far in terms of imagination.

Visit the world's first theme park
The Kursaal in Southend claimed to be the world's oldest theme park. As it opened in 1901, it predates Coney Island - just.
Sadly the theme park became gradually more decrepit over the years and was finally shut about 25 years ago.
Thankfully in 1998, the landmark building was restored to some at least of it's former glory and is now filled with an assortment of shops, food place, slot machines, a casino and a bowling alley.

Walk along Cliff's Pavilion
It's a scenic & pretty 1 mile walk from Cliff's Pavilion to Southend Central station, past Royal Hotel.
You'll see the sea no doubt, but also pass pedestrianised zones with a wide boulevard, and lovely gardens off the water.
Many benches are to be found along the way, in case you want to sit down admiring the natural scene.
There are some lovely houses (each one unique) lining the road, and even pretty terraces, each of which can boast commanding views over the sea.

Comments about Smart Destinations Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex 2 Day Admission:
It's a great place for people with an intrest in space and rockets. For the rest of us it's no more than ok. Shuttle Launch experience was great though. A lot of exhibitions but without the intrest it wasn't that special. If you're short on time you may as well skip it BUT it still is one of thoose places you just have to see while you're there!

Comments about Smart Destinations Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex 2 Day Admission:
This was my first time going to TKSC and I have Cervical Vertigo and it's a lot of walking! There's two tour buses that takes you to two different spots. If you can finish all of this you'll have time to go to the area where you can interact the way astronauts do in space. My family and I didn't get a chance to do that because of my condition. We could've went back the next day to finish what we couldn't get to but the long drive to and from plus all that walking just didn't seem to appeasing to us.

Comments about Smart Destinations Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex 2 Day Admission:
I was always one of those people who thought we were spending too much $$ on the Space program. After visiting KSC and becoming more educated, I have changed my tune as I realize now how much of what is learned through the space program is used in our everday lives.

From the Publisher"Calling the collection 'a model of informed and informing civil discourse at its best that invites us to join in like fashion,' noted philosopher Lucius Outlaw of Haverford College praises McGary as 'a journeyman scholar-teacher respected for (his) passionate engaging of some of the most challenging of the issues of contemporary social, political, and moral life.'" Lori Chambers, Rutgers Magazine
"The care with which he [McGary] presents the issues and the relevant arguments makes this an inviting text for undergraduate as well as graduate courses." Ethics, vol. 3, July 2001.
"Blackwell has done a service to social philosophy and African-American philosophy by bringing this collection of important essays to print. Addressing problems of racism and the search for social justice in liberal political thought, they provide crucial insights that will revive the often politically bankrupt discipline of political philosophy by highlighting dimensions of it that are most relevant to problems of our day." – Lewis Gordon, Brown University and the University of the West Indies, at Mona, Jamaica, Author of Her Majesty Other Children

NEW YORK (AP) A unit of Hain Celestial Group Inc. is recalling some peanut and almond butter because of possible salmonella contamination.
The company said Tuesday that there have been reports of four illnesses that may be related to the nut butters. They were sold under the brand names Arrowhead Mills peanut butters and MaraNatha almond butters and peanut butters.
Also being recalled were some lots of private label almond butter from Whole Foods, Trader Joe's Kroger and Safeway. A total of 45 production lots are affected.
Specific products listed on the FDA Web site.
They were sold in Canada, the Dominican Republic, Hong Kong and the United Arab Emirates as well as the U.S.
The Lake Success, New York, company said it learned of the contamination risk after routine FDA testing.
The Food and Drug Administration said it did not know how many jars of nut butters were recalled. The company would not comment.
Consumers should dispose of the recalled product and its container. Contact the Company at 1-800-937-7008 between the hours of 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. CST for a replacement or refund, and with general inquiries.
Typical symptoms of salmonella infection are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain. These symptoms generally develop within one to three days of exposure to the bacterium and may last for up to a week. While anyone can become ill from exposure to salmonella, health officials say the risk of infection is particularly high for children, the elderly and those with weakened immune systems.
There have been several major salmonella outbreaks in recent years, including infected peanuts that sickened more than 700 people in 2008 and 2009 and Foster Farms chicken that is linked to a strain of salmonella that has made more than 500 people sick over the last year and a half.

Conservative, gay rights group spar after shooting
The Family Research Council strongly opposes gay marriage and abortion and says it advocates "faith, family and freedom in public policy and public opinion." The conservative group maintains a powerful lobbying presence, testifying before Congress and reviewing legislation.
Authorities believe Corkins parked his car at a northern Virginia Metro station and used public transportation to get downtown. An open black box resembling a gun box was found on the car's passenger seat, an affidavit said. Corkins used a Sig Sauer 9mm pistol that was legally bought and owned, said Richard Marianos, special agent in charge of the ATF's Washington field office.
The guard, Leonardo "Leo" Johnson, 46, was resting comfortably at a hospital Thursday morning.
Johnson told WJLA-TV that Corkins claimed he had come to the council's office to interview for an internship.
Johnson's mother, Virginia Johnson, said she had not been to visit him but had spoken to him by phone.
"He said he feels very well," she said in a brief interview. "I am proud of him, very proud of him."

Søk etter studieprogram 2014/2015
Bachelor of Safety Engineering
Brief Facts:
Study Program Code: ING-SIKB
Campus: ATØM
Study Program: Engineering
Number of Credits: 180
Degree: Bachelor's degree programme
Duration: 6 Semesters
Objectives: The three-year engineering study programs at SHUC are programs of professional study that combine theoretical and technical knowledge with practical skills. Our programs teach responsibility towards the interactions between technology, the environment, and society.
The study programs are based on research, with particular emphasis on applied research and development. We maintain a high international academic level. The bachelor program in engineering has three objectives:
1. To educate knowledgeable and thoughtful professionals who are qualified to handle specialized tasks and offer expert advice in both the public and private sectors,
2. To qualify students for domestic and foreign master´s level programs, and
3. To form a basis for life-long learning.
In addition, many courses are taught from a maritime perspective.
Contents: This is a three-year program leading to a bachelor´s degree. We offer two areas of specialization in safety engineering: Fire Safety and HES (Health, Environment, and Safety). Stord/Haugesund University College (SHUC) has a national specialization within the Norwegian network of higher education in fire and safety technology. Based on this, the Department of Engineering has built up a strong program of studies based on safety subjects. In Norway, programs in safety engineering are only offered at Stord/Haugesund University College.
The department reserves the right to cancel planned elective courses due to insufficient enrollment or available teachers.
Fire Safety:
Fire protection and safety have become more and more important in our society. Long tunnels, tall buildings, and complicated ships provide fire safety engineers with large and exciting challenges.
If you choose to study fire safety engineering at Stord/Haugesund University College, you will learn about the processes that control a fire. With this insight, you will be able to estimate the size of a possible fire, as well as to evaluate the consequences of the fire. The study program encompasses several academic fields, and core topics include the physics of fires, risk analysis, internal control, fire prevention, and construction technology. We also focus on general planning for various preparedness situations.
The focus on safety is becoming more and more important in today´s society, and the need for knowledge and competence within this field is rising sharply. The HES study program concentrates on several important areas: HES internal control, the physical and chemical working environment, risk evaluation and analysis, preparedness management, and fire safety. You are introduced to accident theory and accident models, organizational theory, and modern management models within quality and safety management.
Organization: The academic content follows the National Curriculum provided by the Ministry of Education and Research. The three-year long study program is divided into six semesters, each worth 30 ECTS credits for a total of 180 credits. The program is characterized by its diversity with courses ranging from 10 to 30 credits. After completing three years (180 credits), candidates are awarded the Bachelor of Engineering degree. In the third year of the program, students are allowed to select elective courses worth 20 credits, including maritime-related courses.
The study program as a whole is managed by the department head, and each course has its own senior lecturer. Some courses will be supported by teaching assistants. The students in each class (year) in the program elect two class representatives who communicate directly with the department head. Furthermore, two student referees are elected for each course who communicate directly with the senior lecturer.
A research-based, analytical approach to the courses dominates the teaching in the study program. The teaching methods vary, with lectures, solving exercises in groups, and problem-based learning being the most common. The lecturers spend considerable time preparing for the classroom, and students are also expected to meet up well-prepared.
In addition to individual reading, group work is the primary form of study for the students. Each student should expect to work a minimum of 30 hours per credit point each semester. The amount of work in a course is indicated by the number of credits. Most courses are worth 10 - 15 credits. A full year of coursework is normally worth 60 credits. Courses are taught over one or two semesters.
Information and communication technology is integrated in the teaching through the use of the ClassFronter learning management system and through database support systems, which are important tools in pedagogic and academic work.
Courses are normally taught between the hours of 08:15 and 16:00, although some lectures may be given later in the afternoon.
Job Possibilities:
Fire Safety:
A number of our previous students now have positions as chief fire officers. Some are working in the fire safety and prevention sections in fire departments, while others are employed as consultants in private fire-safety consulting firms, construction companies, insurance companies, and in the offshore industry.
A number of our previous students now have positions as HESQ managers. As an HES engineer, you have a broad competence for managing safety and quality-control work in various firms and in public institutions. You are qualified for work involving the working environment, protection and safety, quality management, and quality control.
Further Studies: You may continue your education by taking a master´s degree (previously called civil engineer) and then a PhD at many other colleges and universities in Norway or abroad.
Student Exchange Opportunities: Study programs at SHUC are organized so that students may take 1 - 2 semesters of their education abroad. We have many agreements with other schools in the Socrates/Erasmus and Leonardo da Vinci EU programs. You may read more about SHUC´s foreign exchange offers here.
Application: The application deadline is normally the 1st of March for applicants seeking early admissions / needing special consideration / with foreign education backgrounds / from a Rudolf Steiner School / from an IB program / seeking admissions based on practical competence.
The application deadline is the 15th of April for all ordinary applications.Check the current Application Handbook from the Norwegian Universities and Colleges Admission Service (NUCAS - Samordna opptak) to verify the dates. See Samordna Opptak for more information on the application procedures.

National Curriculum: The national curriculum for study programs in engineering was prescribed by the Ministry of Education and Research on December 1st, 2005.
Assessment: The assessments in engineering courses have two purposes:
1. They provide feedback to students on their academic standing and thereby form a basis for improvement.
2. They provide an indication of the results of each student´s learning process.
The most important prerequisites for achieving good results are to begin studying immediately and to establish positive working habits as early as possible. Additional criteria for success will depend on the course and will be announced by the lecturer.
The engineering program uses varied forms of assessment adapted to each individual course:
Obligatory coursework: Individual or group assignments that do not count towards the final grade, but that must be completed and approved before the student is allowed to take the final evaluation in the course.
Examinations / components: Written school or take-home examinations, oral examinations, portfolios.
Portfolio assessment: This description is used when there are several types of evaluation used during the course. Elements included in the portfolio, the weighting of each element, and completion deadlines are determined by the senior lecturer at the start of each semester. Feedback is given after each element is evaluated, but a final grade is only given to the entire portfolio. A formal complaint about the evaluation of an element may not be filed before a grade has been set for the entire portfolio. As such, the complete portfolio may be regarded as an independent examination component.
Information concerning the form of assessment is included as part of the course description and is covered at the start of the semester. In addition, please refer to Stord/Haugesund University College´s examination regulations.
An external examiner shall be appointed for each course. The external examiner evaluates and approves the assessment system for the course, including any sets of examination questions. Furthermore, the external examiner shall grade a maximum of 25% and a minimum number of 10 of the final examination papers at the end of the course.
Required Reading (Syllabus): Please consult the syllabus pages in the library section!
The University College retains the right to make changes due to unforeseen events.

Response to Complaint filed by A&E Television Network for copyright infringement for the unauthorized use of 12 seconds of the song "Rocky Top" in an episode of the television show CITY CONFIDENTIAL.
The song is included in a scene of a University of Tennessee football game as performed by the school's marching band. Defendant's Memorandum in Support of its Motion to Dismiss states: "During this brief sequence, and as part of the actual noise occurring within the stadium, the UTK marching band can be heard playing an instrumental version of the musical composition "Rocky Top." The song is audible for a total of approximately twelve seconds; however, the tremendous noise of the crowd and the narration of the documentary obscure the song for approximately six of the twelve seconds. Therefore, the song "Rocky Top" can be heard on its own for only six seconds of the Program."
A&E, citing the 2008 court ruling regarding the use of the song "Imagine," argues the usage was "fair use" which is a defense to copyright infringement. In the "Imagine" case, Yoko Ono -- the plaintiff, was denied an injunction for an unauthorized use of the song "Imagine" in the film Expelled, with the court holding the defendant/alleged infringer was likely to prevail on a fair use defense. A&E, like the defendant in the "Imagine" case, is relying on the transformative nature of the use. The Defendant's Memorandum in Support of the Motion To Dismiss argues the use of "Rocky Top" is transformative in that it is used to portray the atmosphere around Knoxville and the lyrics, used in context with the subject matter of the murder mystery, are a commentary on what life should be like in Tennessee.

Whether you're hosting a crowd or planning an intimate evening in, make this New Year's Eve even more memorable by mixing up some unique bubbly drinks for your guests. Sure, you've got a bottle or two of Mumm or Asti Spumante chilling in the fridge for when the ball drops, but why pop the cork and serve it up straight? Use it as the base for a classy mixed drink instead.
Don't have fancy liqueurs and bitters on hand? Not a problem. Here are some sparkling inspirations for cocktails that contain ingredients that can be easily obtained and will surely impress those present. Feel free to use any form of sparkling wine that your budget allows: Champagne, Prosecco, Cava, etc.Champagne Mojito
Classic Cuban cocktail with a twist, use sparkling wine in place of club soda.Makes one drink
7-10 mint leaves
1-2 teaspoons of simple syrup* or granulated sugar
A handful of ice
2 ounces rum (light or dark)
Half a lime
Sparkling wine, as needed
With a spoon or muddler, muddle the mint leaves with the simple syrup or sugar in a cocktail shaker.
Fill the shaker with ice; add the rum and a generous squeeze of fresh lime juice and shake vigorously for a few seconds. Strain mixture into a Champagne flute and top with the chilled bubbly. Garnish with fresh mint.
Raspberry-Elderflower Sparkler
For the raspberry liqueur, if you have the budget for it, buy Chambord, otherwise use the Bols brand. As for the elderflower syrup, it can easily be found at Ikea. You could also use an elderflower liqueur, like St. Germain or the more budget-friendly Thatcher's.
Makes one drink
1-ounce vodka
½-ounce raspberry liqueur
½-ounce elderflower syrup or liqueur
A handful of ice
2-ounces sparkling wine
A few raspberries for garnish
Add the vodka through ice to a shaker, mix well, and strain into a Champagne flute. Top with sparkling wine; throw in a few raspberries and serve.
The Big
Blue Beer Cocktail
Beer cocktails are a hot new trend in the craft beer and cocktail scenes. Mixologists are finding unique ways to combine beer with various spirits, liqueurs and bitters to prove that it can be gussied up and served in something other than a pint glass. Raffaelo VanCouten, senior mixologist at New York's 675 Bar, created the following cocktail in honor of his favorite team, the Giants (hence the drink's name), but I think this would also be a perfectly tasty addition to any New Year's Eve soiree.
Makes one drink
1-ounce rye (substitute a regular whiskey or bourbon if needed)
1-ounce blood orange purée (found in the frozen foods aisle)
1-ounce simple syrup
½- ounce fresh lemon juice
2 ounces Blue Moon beer, or any citrusy wheat beer
In a cocktail shaker, combine first four ingredients and shake with ice. Strain it over a tall glass filled with ice and top with beer.
Wow, that really looks delicious. I first saw something like this food when I was…
