Group Classes
Our Group classes introduce steps and technical points, and give you a chance to practice with other dancers.
Introductory Program
If you've NEVER danced before, this is the class for you! Featuring 6 of the most popular ballroom and latin dances - Waltz, Salsa, Foxtrot, Swing, Tango, Rumba - this class will introduce you to the basic steps you need to 'survive' on the dance-floor. You won't be a pro after these classes, but you will have a sense for the "feel" of each dance, and you will have enough material to be able to last, ahem, dance, through an entire song!
The Intro Program consists of 8 55-minute classes taught over eight consecutive weeks. Intro classes are 6:30 - 7:25pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays - choose the day that works best for you! Check out our schedule link at the top of the page for more detailed information
Classes begin every eight weeks so if you missed the current set, you can still get started soon. Or if you're getting ready for a cruise or a special occasion, or just plain can't wait to get started, we'll be happy to take you on with our private lesson program.
What happens next? Bronze 1! Or, if you'd like to build a really solid foundation, you can repeat the class. (REAPEAT CLASSES ARE 25% OFF FOR THE FIRST REPEAT AND 50% OFF FOR ALL SUBSEQUENT REPEATS!) Like any learned skill, good dancing comes through repetition. The more you see, hear and do dancing, the better dancer you will become!
Bronze 1
Once you've been through the introductory program, you're ready to begin Bronze 1 classes. At this point we introduce a few more dances like the salsa, samba and merengue, as well as a lot more variety for the dances you already know!
Bronze 1 classes focus on a single dance over four weeks of instruction. This allows you to review and make your introductory steps automatic as well as learn new patterns. We also start to work on more advanced ideas like leading and following, floor-craft (how to get around a crowded dance floor) and sometimes even a bit of styling.
Bronze 2 and Beyond...
At this point you have an interesting variety of patterns to dance, and while you're not quite ready to lead of follow someone brand new, you are ready to learn a few more dances that require a higher skill level.
Becoming a better dancer is an ongoing journey; and a fun one at that. As our students develop we add more and more levels and more and more dances for more and more good times!

A command line tool for mounting and dismounting TrueCrypt volumes
tcmount lets you save links between truecrypt volumes and mount points, and mount and dismount them easily.
$ npm install -g tcmount
tcmount shows you the list of your defined links, including their ids.
Here is the result of
tcmount in an environment with this .tcmount file:
Green files or folders are mounted, yellow are not, and grey do not exist at the time.
tcmount <id> will mount the link with that id.
tcmount -u <id> will unmount the link with that id.
tcmount -l <file> <mountpoint> will create a link from the file to the mountpoint.
tcmount -t <id> will remove the link with that id.
tcmount <file> <mountpoint> can be used to mount a file to a mountpoint without having it in your settings.
tcmount -o <id> will open the link's target folder.
Here is a flow of a few commands:

During the Batman: Brave And The Bold panel, creators Brandon Vietti and Greg Weissman got a chance to show off some character designs and footage from their upcoming animated series Young Justice, as well as dish on a few of the details.
We saw the footage, whose animation style resembles previous animated DC efforts like Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, and takes a more grounded and realistic approach to the DC Universe. The Young Justice team will operate as something of an undercover unit designed to combat the increasinly efficient supervillains, as the Justice League's high profile prevents them from stopping more and more criminal
Here's what they were willing to tell us:
- The series takes place within the 50 DC Multiverses, specifically Earth-16, at an early stage in DC Continuity
- Sixteen of the regular Justice League members will appear, with Bruce Greenwood voicing Batman, Phil LaMarr voicing Aquaman, Alan Tudyk as Green Arrow, and Rob Lowe as Captain Marvel
- The core Young Justice team will consist of Robin/Dick Grayson (Jesse McCartney), Kid Flash/Wally West (Jason Spizak), Aqualad (Kari Peyton), Superboy/Connor Kent (Nolan North), Miss Martian (Danica McKellar), and Artemis (Stephani Lemelin)
- SPOILER ALERT! In a twist, the creators have decided to name Black Manta as Aqualad's father!
- Several cold-themed villains appeared in the footage, namely Captain Cold, Ice, and Icicle.

Over the last few years one growing trend in dog food has been in "grain free" products. The diet at its core is a blend of dog food that does not contain ingredients such as corn, oats, wheat, rice and instead are made of meat based ingredients such as fish, turkey, beef, lamb, or chicken.
What is grain free dog food?.
A meat based dog food naturally contains less carbs than grain based dog foods. Grain free dog foods replace the grain with other types of starch like potato, sweet potato, tapioca, or green peas.
A higher protein, lower carb diet comes closer to the canines natural diet as a carnivorous mammal.
One thing to keep in mind is that a grain free diet is more nutritious and meal portions should be less. Introduce the new diet slowly to make a transition easier for your pet.
Grain free health benefits.
Some of the most common dog allergy problem can be associated with a grain based diet. Grain free dog food has been known to ease many digestive and allergy problems associated with grain based dog foods.
Can puppies eat grain free dog food?
This depends on the brand of grain free dog food you select. Some grain free dog food brands only recommend their grain free food for adult dogs, while other brands formulate the diet to be complete and balanced nutrition for all life stages. The label will indicate if the food is recommended for all life stages or just for maintenance of adult dogs.
Worth the cost of a premium dog food?
Many consumers report that the added cost per pound of dog food was offset by the amount their pet consumed per meal. Providing ample nutrition in every bite of dog food allows your dog to spend less time and energy eating and digesting and more time enjoying a healthy life. More and more pet owners are reporting a "Visual" difference in their pet the longer they continued to eat grain free. Less shedding, and better breath as well as more energy while consuming less food all add to the value of a grain free dog food.
If you do decide to switch your dog's diet, just like with humans, it's better to introduce the new change slowly, adding more meat and reducing the amount of grain over a period of time.

Reliance Industries (RIL) and its partners BP and NIKO, the contractor group of the Krishna-Godavari basin (KG-D6) block, have slapped an arbitration notice on the government. They have sought the implementation of the domestic natural gas pricing guideline 2014 that was notified on January 10, 2014 – after the government approved the Rangarajan formula doubling gas prices to $8.4 per unit from April 1.
Despite RIL's insistence to put in place the gas price hike, the petroleum ministry indicated to the contractor that gas prices would only be announced for the second quarter. RIL said this has resulted in a loss to the contractor group and the government of Rs 300 crore a month.
While the ministry was to notify the new gas price for April-June quarter, the Election Commission on March 24 advised deferment of announcement till poll codes are lifted.
RIL's move may make things difficult for next government as they will be expected to soon tackle the issue of gas price hike. The matter may get more complex if the Lok Sabha elections throw up a fractured verdict.
The ministry's decision has forced RIL to keep selling gas at $4.2/mmbtu after April 1. RIL believes this is in contravention of the PSC and detrimental to the economic interests of the contractor group and the government.
Without any clarity, the companies said they are unable to sanction planned investments of close to $4 billion this year. In addition, this will also delay the ability of the companies to appraise and develop other significant discoveries made last year. Overall, they were planning to invest $8-10 billion in the next few years to significantly increase production from the KG-D6 block.
This domestic production is essential for not only meeting India's energy needs but also helping conserve foreign exchange which is required for imports of natural gas into India.
The RIL-led companies have also promised to work with the government to achieve a prompt and efficient resolution of the ongoing dispute.
Debashish Mishra of Deloitte told dna, "Any new gas production in the country is possible only at certain point price and $4.2 is not that price. Prices will have to be increased to promote exploration in country and price of $8.4 is certainly better than importing gas at $16-$18."
In a note to media, RIL has explained what forced RIL to file a notice of arbitration on the government. They believe that they were left with no other option.
"Having made a major discovery in 2013, we were getting ready to start investing in the development of discovered resources. We were upbeat over the opportunity to invest over $8-10 billion in development of discovered resources over the next 3-4 years. These investments could have significantly increased our production by 2019. This would also help the country avoid LNG imports of more than $75 billion," claimed RIL.

|WAHMs will not be paying the price listed in that PDF rate card. Small businesses have a different rate - about 50% less - to purchase reserved ad space. That means if you want to reserve an ad spot to run at a specific time then you, as a small business WAHM, would be charged the small business rate. .... if you are prepared to purchase remnant ad space, which is space that is unsold at the end of the month for the coming month's total ad space, then you would be offered that at a considerably lower price than the small business rate.
|Again, I don't understand why some of are getting so upset, when MDC is only raising prices for larger businesses, and NOT WAHMS! I see the fact that they are offering us a 50% discount on advertising very supportive.
Are you just reading the OP and not the rest of the posts that clarify the situation? I don't get it? Why the angst?
|Whether this stuff was in the email I do not know because I did not receive it. I am not currently advertising, but apparently the email was sent to past WAHM's who advertised which I have. Perhaps if the email that was supposedly(but obviously not) sent out to all current and past WAHMs was put in this forum as a sticky it would clear other things up. IF it wasn't for this post I would know that the rates were changing.

In case you haven't heard, American Sniper made all of the money ever at the box office and maybe singlehandedly saved Hollywood.
Jennifer Aniston's against-type portrayal of a woman who Wikipedia tells me "has become embittered with her life after surviving a car accident, which killed her child and left her in chronic pain" netted her a Golden Globe nomination and significant Oscar buzz. Also starring Felicity Huffman and William H. Macy, you know it's going to be great acting all around.
Critically acclaimed documentary about design power-couple Lello and Massimo Vignelli.
Yup. Fifty Shades of Grey.
Alex Ross Perry's arthouse hit Listen Up Philip scored recognition on 17 of Metacritic's indexed Ten Best Films of 2014 lists. Listen Up features a strong ensemble cast headed by Jason Schwartzman as a not-entirely-coincidentally Philip Roth-like literary figure and Elizabeth Moss as his girlfriend.
David Cronenberg's latest got mixed reviews, but any new Cronenberg movie is worth a look. Starring Julianne Moore and Mia Wasikowska sure doesn't hurt, either.
By all accounts, Paddington is one of those kids movies that adults can sit through without feeling oppressed.
The Babadook garnered universal praise, with many critics falling all over themselves to heap superlatives on the independent Australian psychological thriller and director Jennifer Kent. Not bad for her first feature. The Star Tribune's Colin Covert put it nicely, "The Babadook is urgent, uncanny and entirely disturbing, a dream within a dream within a nightmare. It is the best English language supernatural film of this new century." Recommended especially for those people who like their horror movies as well written and acted as they are scary. BABADOOOOOOOOK!
If you're going to leave Downton Abbey to star in low-budget off-Hollywood thrillers, they'd better be good ones. So far, so good, Dan Stevens.
So now you, too, can stand up for Seth Rogen's right to make critically panned comedies with his friends. And for Sony's right to make money selling them to people.
One of 2014's most acclaimed documentaries, The Overnighters follows several characters and explores issues around the North Dakota oil boom.

|On the astromineralogy of the 13 [mu]m feature in the spectra of oxygen-rich AGB stars
|DePew, Kyle David
|University of Missouri--Columbia
|Approximately half the oxygen-rich AGB stars to be investigated spectroscopically exhibit a feature at 13 [mu]. The carrier of this feature has not yet been unequivocally identified, but has been attributed to various dust species, including corundum ([alpha]-Al2O3), spinel (MgAl2O4) and silica (SiO2). We have used the 1-d radiative transfer code DUSTY to model the effects of composition and optical depth on the shape and strength of the emerging 13 [mu] feature from corundum, spinel and quartz grains. These models demonstrate that i) spinel is unlikely to be the carrier of the 13 [mu] feature; ii) if corundum is present in these circumstellar dust shells, even at very low relative abundances, a 13 [mu] feature should be observed; iii) corundum's 21 [mu] feature will not be observed, even if it is responsible for the 13 [mu] feature; iv) corundum grains must be spherical to exhibit the 13 [mu] feature. Other grain shapes (spheroids, ellipsoids, hollow spheres) shift the features to longer wavelengths for both spinel and corundum; and v) if silica grains are the carrier of the 13 [mu] feature they are unlikely to be either spherical or the polymorph quartz. More laboratory optical data for the polymorphs of silica are needed to determine whether they are the carrier of the 13 [mu] feature.

12 April 2013 09:57 [Source: ICB]
US isopropanol (IPA) contract values fell by 3 cents/lb ($66/tonne, €52/tonne) for March, sources confirmed.
Weak fundamentals, including oversupply and weak demand, pressured IPA prices lower, despite a 6 cent/lb rise in February feedstock chemical-grade propylene (CGP). CGP reversed direction for March, falling by 6 cents/lb, and is expected to weaken similarly again in April.
The IPA decline took contract prices to a new range of 92-93 cents/lb, as assessed by ICIS.
Several market sources expect IPA prices to drop by as much as another 6-8 cents/lb in early April on strong downward sentiment and soft market conditions, but only one reduction of that magnitude had surfaced so far. IPA supply was short early in the first quarter, but supply has lengthened on the prospect of lower pricing, which has stymied sales and runs counter to producers' efforts to sell higher-priced inventory.
Economic signals from the home-building and home-buying markets have been mixed.
Although there have been recent positive indications, US pending home sales edged down by 0.4% in February from January. In its monthly report, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) said its pending home sales index (PHSI) saw its third decline in the last four months.
Despite the long-awaited US housing recovery appearing to take hold, new-home construction is sputtering because it is being deprived of credit fuel and facing uphill materials and labour costs, sources said.
Among feedstocks, the US April propylene contract is trending down by at least 6-7 cents/lb from March on softer demand and lower spot price values, sources said, but the fall could be steeper.
On the US truck acetone front, March prices continued to trend lower on weaker propylene, though supply continues to be constrained by reduced phenol production. Barge and truck prices for March settled down by 5 cents/lb and 6 cents/lb, respectively.
US IPA suppliers include Shell Chemical, LyondellBasell, ExxonMobil, Haltermann and Sasol.
US March methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) contract hikes implemented early in the month lost traction, pulling prices down by an average of 5 cents/lb ($110/tonne, €86/tonne) at the low end of the range, sources confirmed.
The decline took the March MIBK contract range to $1.23-1.30/lb, as assessed by ICIS.
However, one producer with outlier pricing lowered its contract values by a significantly larger margin, sources said. Although the 5 cent/lb drop was broadly implemented, some contracts ended up at rollovers after prices stabilised. Weakening feedstock and soft demand continue to pressure prices downward, and most sources expect declines in April or at least less volatile price movements during the coming month.

After 2-plus decades, Navy destroyer breaks record
"It's a great ship. That's why the Navy stuck with it," said Rines, a third-generation shipbuilder.
The 9,500-ton ships can easily top 30 knots while simultaneously waging war with enemy ships, submarines, missiles and aircraft. Their combat system, called Aegis, uses powerful computers and a phased-array radar to track more than 100 targets - the exact number is classified.
They're also the only surface warships in the Navy's arsenal that can be sealed off to withstand a biological, chemical and nuclear attack.
The latest improvements are software upgrades and SM-3 missiles that allow the Aegis system to be used for ballistic missile defense. An Aegis-equipped cruiser built by Bath Iron Works shot down a failed satellite in 2008. Several Aegis destroyers and cruisers are now equipped with the upgraded system.
The Navy originally envisioned building 29 of the ships, but has since extended the line to 62 ships through 2011. With the continued production, there will be at least three more, keeping shipbuilders in Maine and Mississippi busy while the Navy decides whether to build more Burkes, or to build something else.
The Navy's decision is partly budget-driven. Burkes are less costly to build than the next-generation stealth destroyer, which the Navy and defense contractors spent 10 years designing.
Burkes currently cost about $1.2 billion apiece; the stealthy, and much larger, DDG-1000 Zumwalt will cost more than double that. In the end, the Navy decided to truncate production to just three Zumwalts.
Loren Thompson, a defense analyst at the Lexington Institute, gives credit to the Navy for scaling back the costly Zumwalts and focusing on the tried-and-true Burkes.
The DDG-51 Arleigh Burke, he said, is now in a rare class of military systems that's so durable and versatile that it continues for generations, like the C-130 Hercules cargo transport, an airplane that first went into production in 1957.
"The fact that the Navy can't come up with something better than the DDG-51 isn't necessarily bad news," he said. "It may be commentary on how good the DDG-51 is."

Bakersfield natives at Fresno State swept the Mountain West Conference's Offensive and Defensive Player of the Year awards, which were released Tuesday.
Derek Carr, a junior quarterback from Bakersfield Christian, was the offensive MVP after leading the MWC in passing yards (3,742), passing touchdowns (36, with just five interceptions) and completion percentage (68.1).
Carr is the first Bulldog to win a conference offensive MVP since his brother David did it in 2001 in the Western Athletic Conference. Another Bakersfield native, Chargers running back Ryan Mathews, never won it.
Bakersfield High graduate Phillip Thomas, a senior safety, was the Mountain West defensive MVP. He leads the nation with eight interceptions and has returned three for touchdowns. Thomas is among three finalists for the Jim Thorpe Award, given to the nation's top defensive back.
The Bulldogs also had the conference's Freshman of the Year, wide receiver Davante Adams. It's the first time in Mountain West history that one team has won all three of those awards.
Fresno State (9-3) split the Mountain West title with Boise State and San Diego State and will play Southern Methodist in the Hawaii Bowl on Dec. 24.

Shiprock Formation, New Mexico
In the northwestern corner of New Mexico, a ragged dome of dark volcanic rock emerges from the dusty plateau like the sails of a ship against the horizon. Long, narrow ridges called "dikes" flank the dome, which is known in English as Shiprock Peak, and in Navajo as Tsé Bit'a'Ã, "the winged rock." Millions of years ago, a volcano stood in this place. As its activity decreased, the magma feeding the volcano hardened into solid rock, crystallizing part of the volcano's "circulatory system." Over eons, the softer overlying rock eroded, exposing the hidden workings of the ancient volcano.
This image of the Shiprock formation was captured by the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) sensor on NASA's Terra satellite on June 2, 2006. The image is not photo-like; it uses infrared light to make certain features more obvious than they would be in a natural-color image. Lush vegetation appears bright red, for example, while different kinds of rock with less vegetation appear in shades of gray, black, and tan.
Shiprock Peak itself is the hardened magma that was in the central shaft of the volcano, while the dikes stretching out from the peak are the remains of magma feeder channels. The formation is bounded on the west by Shiprock Wash. Beyond is Bureau of Indian Affairs Road 5020.
Shiprock, or the Winged Rock, is located on Navajo Nation lands, and the peak is part of many legends and stories. According to one story, the peak was once the nesting place of a giant bird of prey—the last of 16 monsters that the Hero Twin gods had to slay before human beings could come to live in the present world.

Torika Tokalau
Monday, June 17, 2013
THE abduction of UN personnel and theft of their weapons, ammunition and vehicles is unacceptable, said UN general-secretary Ban Ki-moon.
In his report to the Security Council, he said it was unacceptable, given the 1974 Disengagement Agreement between Israeli and Syrian forces.
The report highlighted the danger peacekeepers faced on the ground on the Israeli-Syria border.
Four United Nations Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF) personnel and three Observer Group Golan military observers were abducted, peacekeepers faced direct and indirect firing from the Syrian Arab armed forces or members of the opposition, theft of UN weapons and ammunition, vehicles and other assets; and the looting and destruction of UN facilities at Golan Heights.
"I remain deeply concerned by the incidents involving United Nations personnel on the ground," Mr Ban stated in his report.
Those events have forced Croatia and Austria to withdraw their personnel from UNDOF, and the restricted and limited movement of UNDOF and the Observer Group Golan in the areas of separation.
Mr Ban said the safety and security of UNDOF personnel and Observer Group Golan military observers remained essential for enabling UNDOF to continue to implement its mandate in the difficult situation.
It called on the government of the Syria Arab Republic to facilitate fully the efforts of the mission to continue implementing its mandate safely and securely.
"Despite the limitations posed by the security situation on the Bravo side (Syria), UNDOF continued its efforts to liaise with local authorities and engage with the local population to explain the mission's mandate and activities.
"The mandate of UNDOF remains an important element in ensuring the stability of the region."
He added the Department of Peacekeeping Operations was looking into ways of enhancing the self-defence capabilities of UNDOF, including increasing the troop strength to about 1250 within the parameters of the Protocol to the Disengagement Agreement.

Temporal range: Oligocene
|Scientific classification
Domning, Ray & McKenna 1986
Behemotops (from the Biblical monster Behemoth, by Linnaeus and others believed to be a hippo)[2] is an extinct genus of herbivorous marine mammal. It lived from the Early Oligocene (Rupelian) through the Late Oligocene (33.9 mya—23 Mya), existing for approximately 10.9 million years. It is the most primitive known desmostylian, believed to be close to the ancestry of all other desmostylians.

The first specimen of Behemotops — USNM 186889, a massive tusk in fragments of a mandible — was found in Lincoln County, Oregon (44°29′50″N 124°05′00″W / 44.49722°N 124.08333°W)[3] in 1969. In 1977, at the same location, fossil collector Douglas Emlong discovered a poorly preserved half right mandible — USNM 244033 — matching the first specimen. This mandible became the holotype of B. emlongi when described by Domning, Ray & McKenna 1986.[4]
B. emlongi was however made a synonymy of B. proteus in 1994.[5]
B. proteus[edit]
In 1976, Emlong discovered a juvenile mandible — USNM 244035 — on Olympic Peninsula, Clallam County, Washington (48°12′N 123°54′W / 48.2°N 123.9°W, paleocoordinates 47°48′N 115°00′W / 47.8°N 115.0°W)[6] which Domning, Ray & McKenna 1986 made the holotype of B. proteus. Teeth of a young adult — LACM 124106 – was found in the same rock unit in 1986.[4]
More complete material of B. proteus was found on Vancouver Island, British Columbia in 2007: the left side of an entire skull with several teeth, a partial scapula, an almost complete humerus, and several ribs and vertebrae. The cranial features of this specimen were similar to those of Cornwallius, from which Cockburn & Beatty 2009 concluded that Desmostylidae and Paleoparadoxiidae probably diverged earlier than previously believed. Cockburn and Beatty also noted that, in their specimen, all teeth have erupted but the epiphyses of the bones are unfused and that it probably was an subadult; from which they concluded that the adult dentition was not delayed in Behemotops, unlike Desmostylus and other Afrotheria, and that delayed dentition can not be the most primitive state of Desmostylia.[7]
Skeletons of several individuals were found on western Hokkaido Island in Japan (43°18′N 143°48′E / 43.3°N 143.8°E: paleocoordinates 44°36′N 141°24′E / 44.6°N 141.4°E)[8] in 1976, but this material remained unknown outside Japan until they were described in 1987.[4] They were first assumed to be early Miocene in age, but a new analysis of the site in the mid-1980s revised their age to the Oligocene; making them the oldest found on the Japanese island, ancestral to all other desmostylians. They were later included into the genus Behemotops proposed by Domning et al. 1986.[9]
Behemotops had more elephant-like tooth and jaw features than other known desmostylians from later periods. It had cusped molars that more resembled those of mastodons or other land ungulates than those of later Desmostylus, which exhibited odd "bound-pillar" shaped molars which may have evolved in response to the grit from a diet of sea-grass. Discovery of Behemotops helped place desmostylians as more closely related to proboscideans than sirenians, although relationships of this group are still poorly resolved.[10]
B. katsuiei had an estimated body length of 290 cm (110 in),[11] making it the smaller of the two species.[7]

The Virginia Supreme Court issued new opinions this morning, some of which affect local government law. Here they are (summaries taken from the Virginia Supreme Court website):
PKO Ventures, LLC v. Norfolk Redev't & Housing Auth. 09/12/2013 In a condemnation proceeding in which the property owner asserted that a redevelopment and housing authority lacked the power to condemn unblighted private property that was located in a blighted area, the circuit court erred in permitting the condemnation after the effective date of the July 1, 2010 statutory deadline pursuant to Code § 1-219.1. The judgment of the circuit court is reversed and final judgment is entered in favor of the property owner.
Small v. Federal Nat'l Mortgage Ass'n 09/12/2013 In response to certified questions of law presented to the Court by a federal district court pursuant to Article VI, Section 1 of the Constitution of Virginia and Rule 5:40, it is held that a clerk of court in Virginia lacks statutory standing to initiate a lawsuit, in his official capacity, to enforce the real estate transfer tax on the recording of instruments under Code §§ 58.1-801 and -802. Because the ministerial duties of a clerk of court do not extend to enforcing the state taxes at issue, the first certified question is answered in the negative and the second certified question is not addressed as a result.

text: TOLEDO (AP) Parishioners know the Rev. Gerald Robinson as a dedicated Roman Catholic priest who rarely went anywhere without wearing his collar and never turned down a request for help. Authorities give a much different description. They say Robinson strangled and stabbed a nun about 30 times in a ritualistic killing on Easter weekend in 1980. Another nun found the body, covered by an altar cloth and surrounded by burning candles. Friends say he was extremely shy. Yet he was popular in the citys Polish neighborhoods, and parishioners often asked him to perform marriages and baptisms. Robinson sometimes delivered sermons and heard confessions in Polish, which he speaks fluently. For the last six years, he celebrated Mass on Easter weekend and Christmas at St. Anthony church, an inner-city church founded in 1881. He always drew a big crowd when he would give Mass, said Mary Ann Plewa, a distant cousin. People always wanted to come hear him. Members of St. Anthony set up a legal defense fund for him. The 19-county Diocese of Toledo says it is saddened by Robinsons arrest but has decided against paying his legal bills. In the years after his co-workers murder, Robinson never mentioned the death, friends recall, even though police say he was a suspect at the time. He later became pastor at several parishes and administered to the sick and dying in nursing homes. He never turned down a call for help or a donation for charity. Sometimes, I thought he was too generous, said Bea Orlowski, his former secretary at St. Anthony. His duties over the last decade mainly have been limited to visiting patients at hospitals and nursing homes and giving last rites. He also performed Mass once a month at a nursing home. For several years, Robinson and Sister Margaret Ann Pahl, 71, worked closely at Mercy Hospital. He was the hospital chaplain and she was the chapels caretaker. It was Robinson who presided over her funeral on a stormy afternoon three days after her body was discovered. Some hospital employees told police they suspected the priest may have been involved in the death because he was one of the few people near the chapel, which was tucked away in the hospital. Jan Schaeffer, a nurse in the hospitals emergency department, said she had a bad feeling about the priest, whom she described as extremely introverted. Hes just the kind of person I didnt want much to do with, she said. Police could never gather enough evidence to bring charges against anyone. Robinson, meanwhile, was appointed pastor at three parishes in Toledo a year later. Robinson, 66, was born in Toledo and has spent his 40-year career there. He lived a quiet life, never getting as much as traffic ticket, according to court records. He lived just steps from a police station. It was there police questioned him before charging him with murder on Friday. Robinson, a slight man who weighs just under 150 pounds, was being held Tuesday on $200,000 bond at the Lucas County jail. He thought this whole thing was behind him, said John Thebes, the priests lawyer. He thought it was behind him in 1980 when he cooperated fully. Investigators re-examined the nuns killing after a woman told a Diocesan Review Board in June that she was sexually and physically abused as a child by Toledo diocesan and religious-order priests during her childhood. Authorities said that while they could not substantiate the allegations, her mention of Robinson spurred police to take another look at the slaying. On the Net: http://www.toledodiocese.org/

Product description
Gridiron Leadership: Winning Strategies and Breakthrough Tactics uses real moments from the worlds of professional and college football, as well as a wide range of evocative football metaphors, to dissect the craft of leadership and communicate essential management lessons. With so many leadership and strategy books sending the same messages in the same ways, this fresh approach is truly groundbreaking, using a familiar frame of reference to capture and understand the concepts and practice of leadership, strategy, and execution. The language of sports is already common vernacular among today's successful leaders. Gridiron Leadership uses the accessible, recognizable terminology of sports in a thoughtful, systematic way, making the connection between the culture of football and the kinds of organizational and leadership situations encountered everyday. It covers the full range of modern organizational issues, including human resources, crisis leadership, ethical leadership, strategic decision making, and organizational change. With topics covering everything from building a winning team to analyzing the needs of stakeholders, this is the playbook today's leaders have been waiting for.

"Diligent history of nuclear proliferation and peaceful nuclear energy makes a good case that they are intimately connected and equally out of control… Skillful, unsettling arguments that the world is headed toward nuclear disaster from two different directions." –Kirkus
"In Stephanie Cooke's hands, our complex and often shadowy nuclear history is refined into a compelling, accessible and important narrative. With the assurance of a veteran industry observer, Cooke shows us just how fallible nuclear technology and nuclear policy have been—and dismantles the myth that nuclear energy is merely misunderstood. In Mortal Hands is essential reading for anyone who thinks nuclear energy is the slam-dunk answer for our energy and climate problems." --Paul Roberts, author of The End of Oil
"In Mortal Hands is an imperative read. Because politicians, industrial leaders and scientists mixed and confused the issues of nuclear weapons and nuclear power the door was opened to unmitigated disaster as country after country verges on nuclear power development and inevitable access to nuclear weapons. Pandora's box has been opened but will the collective human psyche develop the wisdom to close the box? This question will readily be answered if millions of people decide to read In Mortal Hands." --Helen Caldicott, author of Nuclear Power is Not the Answer and The New Nuclear Danger
"In Mortal Hands charts the intertwined and interdependent paths of the global civil and military nuclear enterprises. It compellingly shows how inherent human frailties create 'ambiguity, secrecy, power, and greed' that consistently and unavoidably turn both efforts' promise into peril. Fortunately, better ways to provide both security and energy—efficiency and micropower (already providing over half the world's new electrical services) and a "new strategic triad" of conflict prevention, conflict resolution, and nonprovocative defense—can meet all the same needs better, sooner, and more attractively, wherever they're allowed to compete. This chronicle of the distressing nuclear history that many citizens and leaders never learned, or have lately forgotten, should motivate us all to demand those wider choices now, before it's forever too late." --Amory B. Lovins, Chairman and Chief Scientist, Rocky Mountain Institute
"In Mortal Hands spans the sixty years of the nuclear age, telling the complicated and fascinating story of the way nuclear energy and nuclear weapons have been interconnected like a double helix over time. The story is well told by someone with an insider's knowledge of the nuclear industry who knows and appreciates the concerns over safety and security that have always dogged the advocates of nuclear power. For those in the new American administration who must deal with the pressures to find alternatives to fossil fuels, lessen dependence on foreign sources of energy, and reduce the risks of nuclear proliferation, Cooke's book is a fine primer." --Robert L Gallucci, Former Ambassador at Large in the Clinton Administration and Dean of the School of the Foreign Service, Georgetown University
"In Mortal Hands should be read by all interested in nuclear issues and the history of the development of nuclear power. Politicians, journalists and academics will find it a most useful addition to their libraries. Readers that do not normally read books about nuclear energy will enjoy this very readable book. It will equip them to participate in the coming debate about the use of nuclear power as an energy source which many political leaders are advocating as a way of limiting global warming." --Frank Barnaby, Past Director of SIPRI, Stockholm International Peace Research Institute

Manning leads Giants to first win
Steve Spagnuolo and the St. Louis Rams came to the Meadowlands bearing gifts and the New York Giants readily accepted them.
Catch of the year?Watch Domenik Hixon's highlight-reel grab at Yardbarker.
Eli Manning threw two touchdown passes and linebacker Michael Boley scored on a 65-yard fumble return to lead New York to a 28-16 victory over the mistake-prone Rams on Monday night in the first matchup between Giants coach Tom Coughlin and Spagnuolo, his former defensive coordinator.
''It seemed when they gave us a little opening, we jumped in there and got points and scored touchdowns and didn't settle for field goals,'' said Manning, who completed 18 of 29 passes for 200 yards and one interception.
This one was ugly with mistakes by the Rams (0-2) giving New York (1-1) a crucial win after a disappointing loss to Washington in the season opener.
''It's a little bit of the same story as last week, we shot ourselves in the foot,'' said Spagnuolo, who kept the media waiting 25 minutes after the game before talking. ''It's difficult enough to beat any football team in this league without doing that, when you kind of beat yourself.''
All four of New York's touchdowns resulted directly from St. Louis mistakes.
Manning hit Hakeem Nicks with a 3-yard TD pass after a muffed punt and Domenik Hixon made a spectacular juggling grab on a 22-yard score after a busted coverage late in the first half. Boley TD came on the lateral and New York's final score was set up by a third down pass interference call early in the second half.
Feeling the strainBradford and Rams' offense suffering from injuries. FOX Sports Midwest
Sam Bradford threw a touchdown pass and Josh Brown kicked three short field goals for the Rams, who moved up and down the field, gaining 367 yards. The one area they could not move was in the red zone.
''The thing I liked about what we did tonight was we showed resiliency,'' said Giants Pro Bowl defensive end Justin Tuck, who had 1 1/2 sacks in his first game of the season after sitting out the opener with a neck injury. ''In a lot of those situations, if they get touchdowns, that score is a lot different.''
Bradford, who was 22 of 46 for 331 yards, might have made the biggest mistakes, throwing a pass backward and seeing Boley run it into the end zone.
It was that kind of night for the Rams.
The Rams killed themselves in the red zone. They settled for three short field goals after drives stalled inside the Giants 10, with the first coming after they got a first-and-goal at the 1 following a 68-yard catch and run by Danario Alexander, who had three catches for 122 yards.
New York built a 21-6 halftime lead and was never threatened again.
After Manning threw an interception deep in Rams' territory on the opening drive, the Giants looked lost for a couple of minutes, until the Rams woke them up with their first big mistake.
NFL VIDEOSCheck out the best expert analysis and interviews on NFL Video Central.
It resulted because St. Louis was without regular punt returner Danny Amendola.
Greg Salas took his place and muffed Steve Weatherford's punt with Dave Tollefson recovering at the 38.
Nicks, who was questionable for the game with a bruised knee, put New York ahead with the 3-yard TD catch. The score came after New York got a first down at the Rams' 9 after Bradley Fletcher was called for pass interference against Nicks.
A 25-yard field goal by Brown closed the gap to 7-6 later in the quarter, and the Rams seemed to be in position to take the lead early in the second quarter when Bradford moved them to the Giants 27.
However on third-and-8, Bradford tried to throw a halfback screen to Williams who was lined up as a receiver. The pass was thrown backward, making it a lateral and Boley picked up the fumble and ran 65 yards for a touchdown and a 14-6 lead.
''It was a big momentum lift,'' Boley said after his first career regular-season NFL touchdown. ''Anytime the defense scores, it's a bonus. Not only does the defensive feed of it but it gives the offense some momentum as well. It looked like he just dropped it. It was a pretty good throw. He just missed it. Scoop and score. We work on that drill a couple of times each week. It paid off.''
The margin grew to 21-6 just before halftime when cornerback Al Harris let Mario Manningham run past him on a first-and-10 from the Giants 47 and Manning hit him in stride for a 31-yard gain.
Hixon made a one-handed catch of Manning's pass - juggling the ball three times with his right hand - for a 22-yard touchdown. He hurt his calf on the play and barely played in the second half. He missed all last season after tearing the ACL in his right knee in June.
''It happened so fast, I don't know if it him in arm or hit me in the shoulder,'' Hixon said. ''Until I see the replay, I won't be able to tell you. At the end of the day we always say, catch the ball. I didn't want to get fined by the receivers for not catching it.''
A 17-yard pass interference penalty against Justin King kept the Giants' opening drive in the second half alive and Jacobs scored one play after Manning got New York a first down with a 23-yard screen pass to Ahmad Bradshaw.
Bradford closed the scoring with a 19-yard touchdown pass to Alexander late in the third quarter.
