More than 100 bus drivers for Foothill Transit, the county's second-largest bus operator, will vote today on an ultimatum by their employer to end a 12-day-old strike over wages and health benefits or be fired.
Teamsters Union Local 848 officials, who represent the drivers, called the meeting after receiving the message from Laidlaw Transit Services, which operates the blue and white Foothill buses in the San Gabriel Valley, that replacement drivers would be hired.
Union workers have been picketing Upland-based Laidlaw, which contracts its services to West Covina-based Foothill Transit, since Feb 22.
"The company issued an ultimatum: Go back to work by March 6 or we'll replace you," said Lou Ippolito, Local 848 business manager.
Laidlaw officials said they had made striking drivers their final offer and are training replacements. Once those replacement drivers begin work, Laidlaw officials said they cannot guarantee that striking drivers will have jobs.

Ukraine's military lost two helicopters and two servicemen on Friday in a deadly offensive launched just before dawn against pro-Russian rebels holding the flashpoint town of Slavyansk, insurgents and authorities said.
"A full-scale attack" was being mounted, said a spokeswoman for the rebels in the town.
AFP journalists reported seeing eight armoured vehicles and up to 100 troops advance to within five kilometres (three miles) of the town. Explosions and small-arms fire were heard sporadically and helicopters were seen flying extremely low.
Ukraine's defence ministry said two military Mi-24 helicopters had been shot down and two servicemen killed. It said the rebels were using shoulder-launched missiles to bring down the aircraft. Small-arms fire also damaged an Mi-8 helicopter but no occupants were hurt, the ministry said.
Ukrainian Interior Minister Arsen Avakov said on his official Facebook page that one of the dead was a pilot. The SBU security service said another pilot was taken prisoner by the rebels.
Avakov, who said he was in the region of Slavyansk with the defence minister and head of the national guard, underlined the sophisticated type of weaponry the pro-Russian gunmen were using. "It's a real battle we are waging against professional mercenaries," he said, adding that the operation included the nearby town of Kramatorsk. He said the "terrorists" were using human shields by firing from positions in big apartment blocks.
Avakov said the aim of the military operation was to force the rebels to free hostages they are holding and surrender.

OSCE prisoners in town
Slavyansk's insurgents have been holding seven European inspectors from the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) they seized a week ago.
The inspectors – who were in Ukraine to monitor a deal aimed at ending the conflict that has largely been ignored since it was signed in Geneva on April 17 – were being detained in the town hall. On Friday, the rebels parked one of several armoured personnel carriers they had captured last month in front of the building.
Rebels also began blocking access to the town centre and erecting new barricades.
Since mid-April, Ukraine's military has been surrounding Slavyansk, manning checkpoints at a distance of a few kilometres (miles) to prevent the militants inside receiving reinforcements. Avakov said Friday's operation saw nine rebel roadblocks fall to the Ukrainian army.
The centre of Slavyansk – a town with a population of 160,000 – was itself relatively calm during the assault on the outskirts, but the town's church rang out its bells to alert citizens.
The rebel leadership of the town had been warning for several days that a Ukrainian military assault was imminent. Kiev has been carrying out an operation for weeks to try to contain the rebels, but it has failed to stop them expanding their grip across east Ukraine. Slavyansk is one of more than a dozen towns and cities pro-Russian gunmen have grabbed in the region since early last month.
The Ukrainian government and the West say the insurgency is being fomented by Moscow, which in March used the same tactics ahead of its annexation of Crimea. Moscow denies it has any hand in the east Ukraine unrest, but warns an escalation of the Ukrainian offensive could trigger "catastrophic consequences".

Hands off!
Your backpacking companions may have coveted your ultralight titanium cutlery before, but they will go mad with desire when you pull out the Snow Peak Colored Titanium Spork on your next trip. Fortunately, this versatile utensil's distinctive hue, which is the result of the pigment being safely bonded (not painted) on to the metal, makes stealing it a little hard to pull off without being detected.

Sporking Awesome
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This is the perfect companion to my Titanium 450 Mug. Cleans up easily and unlike the sea to summit sporks doesn't have the odd texture to it.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
i bought 3 different sporks (sea to summit, stoic)to compare. this one is my favourite.i bought 2 so i keep one in my camping gear, the other, in my utensil drawer.
Nice spork
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This spork is very light and it feels durable. I love the bright green color.
Comfortable and durable!
I like the BRIGHT colors, (got mine in purple) so I won't mix up whose is whose or lose the spork in the depths of my pack. Easy to see and find. The hole in the handle is handy for hanging or threading a small piece of cord for an extra handle! It will not taint the taste of your food and the NON-paint coloring uses Electric Ionization Process to chemically bond pigment to the titanium for a safe vibrant color. Over time the color may break in and fade with use as you scratch and wear down the titanium, but it won't rust! I highly recommend it!!!

This is the only utensil I use. It's long enough to reach into dehydrated food bags without getting me covered. And it looks cool in blue. Never new a spork could be so cool.

BROOKVILLE — A new building, a new start. And a time to dream big.
Jefferson County's own child advocacy center (CAC), Western PA CARES for Kids, has a good reason to celebrate.
Sunday, the center opened the doors to its new facility and welcomed about 100 people to take part in the ceremony.
"It's a dream come true," Jefferson County District Attorney and Western PA CARES for Kids Board President Jeff Burkett said. "We've been dreaming about this basically since 2004. The new facility really gives us the ability to dream big."
The new building, located along Route 322 in Brookville, is a place CARES for Kids can finally call its own, and is one of the goals Burkett hoped to fulfill since the beginning of the program.
In 2004, Burkett first envisioned the possibility of a county child advocacy center, but it wasn't until 2008 that the first part of his vision came true.
Burkett's office applied for and was awarded a one-year start-up grant to develop a center. Since that time, the CAC has applied for and received 501(c)(3) non-profit status, and is now a community-based agency.
But when CARES first began operating in 2008, the office was located in the basement of the Behavioral Health Building
in Brookville.
"We were very thankful for it (the space), but all along, we knew that there would be a day when we needed to move out of there," Burkett said.
And that day came Sunday, but not without the hard work and due diligence of a group of dedicated individuals.
Executive Director and Forensic Interviewer for CARES, Pat Berger, was up against an almost next-to-impossible task.
After doing some research, Berger learned about a CAC in Gettysburg that had been in operation for only one year longer than Jefferson County's CAC, but already had its own facility, and enough money to pay for the salaries of eight people for two years.
Berger was amazed, and further learned that the money for Gettysburg's CAC was available through Mental Health/Mental Retardation.
So she made a call.
May 30, Berger was told she had $175,000 at her disposal to purchase a location and renovate it.
But there was a major stipulation.
"I was told I needed to find a place, close on it, and get three contractor bids and engineer drawings for handicap accessibility — in 30 days," Berger said. "From what I'm hearing, it's next to impossible to do all of that."
But she did. And with only three days to spare.
June 28, she closed on the house, just a few days before the money would have been sent back to the state.
"We've wanted for a long time to be able to be a child-focused, child-friendly center," she said. "And where we started before, was helpful because it was free to stay there, but it wasn't really child-friendly."
The money from Mental Health/Mental Retardation has made Berger's dream a reality.
According to Burkett, a visitor to the CAC even described the home as a "trip to Grandma's house."
Complete with a comfy living room and play area, the CAC now has a bathroom, a kitchen, a conference room, an office and a sound-proof interview room.
Board members, family members of board members and the contractor, Chuck Nelson, were able to bring everything together in less than four months.
"It's a real story about the power of people working together," Burkett said.
Berger's past position working for the district attorney gave her direct insight into the trauma that child victims go through, and the importance of making interviews and trial appearances as comfortable as possible.
"Part of my job was accompanying victims to court, holding little kids' hands while they testify, and seeing what all they go through," she said.
At Western PA CARES for Kids, children who may have experienced either physical or sexual abuse, or children who were witnesses to a violent crime, are interviewed once by a trained forensic interviewer with nationally-accredited training, while the investigative team watches the interview on a monitor.
This eliminates the need for each member of the investigative team to perform a separate interview, which reduces the trauma and enhances the physical, emotional and psychological safety of the child.
From May 2008 to August 2011, CARES for Kids has served 181 children.
Of those 181 children, 157 were victims of sexual abuse; 18 were victims of physical abuse; and six children were witnesses to violence.
"The way the system worked back in 2004 was a whole lot worse," Burkett said. "The kids would have to talk about abuse over and over and over. Now, one interview is done, and it's done with excellence, too. Pat Berger is a nationally-accredited interviewer."
While the interview is taking place, police, Children & Youth Services, the county's detective, the DA or the ADA and mental health personnel watch the interview in a different room on a TV screen.
"Then we all put our heads together to find the best way to investigate the allegations," Burkett said. "It has completely revolutionized the way we investigate child abuse in this county."
The new center helps to further this goal as well.
"Having a nice facility makes the children feel more at ease," he said. "We want to minimize the trauma and ease the burden a little bit for them — the facility does that."
Although providing a child-friendly center is a step in the right director for CARES, Burkett and Berger still have a long list of goals.
Berger would like to transform the facility's garage into two separate areas: One for medical assessment and the other for trauma-focused, cognitive behavioral play therapy.
Furthermore, she would also like to renovate the basement and provide an area where non-offending parents could receive "non-offender, parent education" classes, where they can learn about the criminal justice program and what their kids are going through.
But there's an even bigger goal they want to accomplish.
"Our biggest hope is that we would really like to have other counties start to use our facility," he said. "Children get abused everywhere — child abuse does not know county lines. We are hoping to expand and become a regional child advocacy center. This was definitely a first step."
For more information about Western PA CARES for Kids, or to learn how you can help, contact Berger at 814-849-1904, or visit the Web site: www.carescac.org.
The following is a Western PA CARES for Kids wish list as it settles into its new space along Route 322, Brookville:

Bid for Iran nuclear talks confronts old snags
Khamenei cannot easily roll back the Iranian nuclear program, but is hit with increasing blows from sanctions that have isolated and eroded Iran's economy.
"Should he ignore it, the Iranian economy, the health of which is crucial to the survival of the regime, could collapse," he wrote in a Sunday commentary.
Keeping the ruling system in place, however, could also drive Iran's nuclear advances closer toward weapons, others contend.
"They perceive the whole nuclear issue as an insurance policy of sorts," said the analyst Boroujerdi. "There are those who say, 'If we are a nuclear power then the West wouldn't dare touch us.' And this, in their mind, helps ensure the survival of the system."
Associated Press writer Ali Akbar Dareini in Tehran, Iran, contributed to this report.

An interface tracking algorithm for the porous medium equation
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: We study the convergence of a finite difference scheme for the Cauchy problem for the porous medium equation .
The scheme exhibits the following two features. The first is that it employs a discretization of the known interface condition for the propagation of the support of the solution. We thus generate approximate interfaces as well as an approximate solution.
The second feature is that it contains a vanishing viscosity term. This term permits an estimate of the form .
We prove that both the approximate solution and the approximate interfaces converge to the correct ones.
Finally error bounds for both solution and free boundaries are proved in terms of the mesh parameters.

We would highly recommend Jeff Jordan and his team. They were professional, communicated well and eased our anxiety during what could have been a very stressful time. They also sold our home in three weeks! It was a very pleasant experience. I would use them again and have recommended him to others.

Team reviews
Jeff excels at his trade and knows the real estate market. Jeff is prompt, direct and provided excellent guidance when decisions needed to be made. In short we were thrilled with his service and knowledge. We would recommend him to anyone wanting to buy or sell in this market!
Since 1983 my husband and I have used Jeff to buy and sell three houses already. Not only has he sold 3 of our house but we have trusted him with our parents houses also. He is efficient, informative and very professional. We know and trust that he will give us the best advise.
When we recently decided to sell our home of 20 years, and immediately called Jeff Jordan (who is a well known professional in our area)! Jeff sold our first home in 1990. We were very impressed with his knowledge of the area, and his thorough research of the local market at that time! When we sat down with Jeff recently, we were very impressed with the break-down of information he presented to us, which obviously took time and a lot of research on his part! Jeff is the consummate Professional Realtor who keeps you updated and is easy to reach anytime if you have a question! We would highly recommend Jeff and his team to anyone who is buying or selling their home!
We have purchased nine homes and sold five of them...and this was easily our best experience.
Jeff is a consummate real estate professional. My only negative is that I wish I had used him on previous transactions. His advice was always accurate. He was very timely in providing feedback on the process. He displayed an extremely knowledgeable view of the St. Charles / Geneva / Batavia market and enabled us to very quickly go from putting our property up for sale to identifying a fully vetted buyer and closing our transaction. He quickly put together a strong team that enabled us to fix small elements of the home, process the paperwork and close. He promptly responded to our email and telephone calls, even off hours sometimes. Our distance (we live in Georgia) could have easily complicated the process, but to us it felt like Jeff was literally next door and we never missed a beat.
Jeff receives our very highest recommendation to be your real estate agent!
Our house sold in one day for more than the asking price. Our asking price was fair and the house was in a very in demand area. The listing and the photos were exquisite - they showed the house at its best and I wanted to buy that house.
The only reservation is that we might have gotten more; but, we got much more than we were thinking when we started and that was due to Jeff and his expertise.
Thank you Jeff.
We had a 60 year old home to sell from Estate Sale. The house was never remodeled and was 1,000 square feet. We had traffic but comments were too small and outdated. Mr. Jordan sought out specific potential buyers with highlights of great location and schools, as well as his knowledge of inventory and competition. As Trustee I was most impressed at closing due to firm pricing and quick sale. Mr. Jordan comes highly recommended, and as Trustee was very satisfied, including the trust beneficiaries, Jeff Baldwin
Jeff definitely had all of the recent market data for selling my property and he was very knowledgeable about it. Gave me great advise on how to list and sell the property. This is the second time in 12 years I have used Jeff if there is a third time I will use him again.
Jeff is an excellent professional and an artisan as a realtor. He knows the market and was incredibly helpful with helping us understand all the nuances with selling our house. Jeff and his team were very responsive and excellent at communicating which is paramount in their line of business. I recommend Jeff and his team to everyone.
Jeff is professional and very friendly. His entire team returns calls/emails quickly, and are always open to questions and concerns. Jeff helped make our moving process very smooth. I would highly recommend him!

Description of Research ExpertiseRESEARCH INTERESTS:
Our primary research focus is the investigation of photodynamic therapy (PDT) for the treatment of solid malignancies. In PDT, diseased tissue is illuminated by specific wavelengths of visible light after the delivery of a photosensitizer to that tissue. The light-excited photosensitizer interacts with oxygen to produce reactive oxygen species that damage the tissue and its associated stroma, including the supporting vascular network.
Our research centers on the study of biophysical limitations of treatment response to PDT. This includes the study of heterogeneities in the distributions of oxygen, photosensitizing drug, and light. Our studies have found that PDT can create widespread, severe hypoxia during illumination, even in tumor cells immediately adjacent to perfused blood vessels. Furthermore, noninvasive monitoring has shown PDT effect on tumor oxygenation and blood flow during the illumination period to be predictive of an animal's long-term response to therapy. Such findings are extremely relevant to clinical PDT applications, where significant heterogeneity in hypoxia and photosensitizer distributions among the tumors of PDT patients will contribute to variable therapeutic outcomes. Indeed, we have documented a relationship between biochemical (PSA) response to PDT in prostate cancer patients and levels of photosensitizer drug and light energy in their prostates. Ultimately, in order to improve the clinical therapeutic index and efficacy of PDT, we aim to alter the microenvironment of tumors undergoing treatment as guided by noninvasive monitoring of their response.

Pentagon grounds entire F-35 fleetFebruary 23,2013
WASHINGTON — The Pentagon on Friday grounded its fleet of F-35 fighter jets after discovering a cracked engine blade in one plane.
The problem was discovered during what the Pentagon called a routine inspection at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., of an F-35A, the Air Force version of the sleek new plane. The Navy and the Marine Corps are buying other versions of the F-35, which is intended to replace older fighters like the Air Force F-16 and the Navy F/A-18.
All versions — a total of 51 planes — were grounded Friday pending a more in-depth evaluation of the problem discovered at Edwards. None of the planes have been fielded for combat operations; all are undergoing testing.
In a brief written statement, the Pentagon said it is too early to know the full impact of the newly discovered problem.
The F-35 is the Pentagon's most expensive weapons program at a total estimated cost of nearly $400 billion. The Pentagon envisions buying more than 2,400 F-35s, but some members of Congress are balking at the price tag.
Friday's suspension of flight operations will remain in effect until an investigation of the problem's root cause is determined.
The Pentagon said the engine in which the problem was discovered is being shipped to a Pratt & Whitney facility in Connecticut for more thorough evaluation.MORE IN This Just InESSEX — Police in Essex believe a body recovered from the Winooski River is that of a man...

A Dream Deferred
Martin Luther King Jr., in a January 19, 1968, speech at Kansas State University titled "The Future of Integration," looked back at the Supreme Court's Brown v. Board of Education decision on May 17, 1954, as "the psychological turning point, where people by the thousands began to act." These people created mass movements to implement the decision, but they also went far beyond it. Broad visions of a just society, not simply a quest to sit beside white students in classrooms or in other public facilities, animated the tidal wave of protests that followed Brown.
As one of the major spokespersons for integration, King defined it as "genuine intergroup and interpersonal living" in a just society. By the end of his life, King had moved on to fighting for what he called a "planetary movement" to create a world free of hunger, poverty, war and racial-economic injustice. To think that the Brown decision or even the passage of the Civil Rights Act in 1964 and the Voting Rights Act in 1965 could solve the problem of racial discrimination, King said in Kansas, would be "an illusion wrapped in superficiality." In an attempt to implement his larger vision of equality, King tried to organize a multiclass coalition he called the Poor People's Campaign. He died supporting a strike for the right of the black working poor to join a union in Memphis, Tennessee, on April 4, 1968.
Ultimately, King said, achieving equality requires not only full civil rights but also labor rights and social and economic justice. To measure the distance we have traveled or not traveled since the Brown decision from this perspective, it helps to do some re-visioning of the past from the viewpoint of black workers. As a starting place, it is crucial to remember that Brown was as much the product as the precipitator of mass movements. Yes, the decision resulted from the incredibly hard-working and astute battle led by Charles Houston, Thurgood Marshall and others in the NAACP. But it also resulted from mass movements and a vast shift in status among poor and working-class African-Americans, millions of whom moved out of rural areas and into cities and mass-production industries in the 1930s and '40s. They created an expanding membership base for the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO), the NAACP and an American left that challenged segregation at every level. Domestic workers, sharecroppers, day laborers, factory workers and other poor people, especially the women among them, organized economic boycotts, picket lines, marches, sit-ins, strikes, church and community groups, unions, consumer cooperatives and mass meetings. Their role as workers, soldiers and activists in the fight against white supremacy at home and fascism abroad created vast social changes that set the stage for Brown.
As one example, in the Deep South city of Memphis, African-Americans, who had been organizing unions since after the Civil War, provided the main support that made the rise of the CIO possible, at a time when supporting a union could cost one's life. The purge of the interracial left from the CIO during the cold war undermined civil rights unionism, yet a number of black industrial unionists continued to challenge white supremacy in the 1950s and '60s. Union wages also made it more possible to send children to college, and some of those students led sit-ins and demonstrations against Jim Crow.
The interconnections between labor and civil rights crystallized in Memphis in January 1956, when the Montgomery bus boycott was in its second month. Lonnie Roland, Clarence Coe and other African-American workers at the Memphis Firestone Tire and Rubber plant sued both the company and their union for maintaining segregation at the factory. They secretly collected money from their fellow workers to hire a lawyer and used Brown's condemnation of separate facilities as inherently unequal as justification for the suit. And they won.
Their case was not hard to prove. Roland told me that before their lawsuit "there were no black foremen, no black supervisors, and black people only got to a certain status and stopped there. There was an unwritten law that black people couldn't work high-skilled jobs, couldn't have no top jobs operating no machine." The company kept workers divided into separate departments, with blacks (including women) doing the hottest, dirtiest, heaviest work at the lowest wages. If blacks tried to move into all-white, cleaner and higher-paid tire-building or machine work, they lost all seniority, which accrued by department. They would go to the bottom rung of the advancement ladder and be laid off first, no matter how many years they had worked at the factory.
After the workers won their lawsuit, Coe at Firestone and George Holloway at the International Harvester plant risked life and limb to implement desegregation at their factories and union halls. Whites smashed the windows in Holloway's home and threatened Coe's family, provoking him to put a gun in every room of his home. Blacks challenging factory segregation fought on two fronts, against both white workers and employers. Desegregation struggles nearly led to bloodshed at union meetings, and white workers nearly killed both Coe and Holloway when they used the Brown rationale to open up skilled jobs formerly reserved for whites. Such black unionists also supported the NAACP and young people challenging segregation in schools, libraries and other public accommodations. Black unionists made up a significant portion of NAACP members in Memphis, Detroit and many other cities.
African-American struggles for desegregation at the point of production could be nearly as bloody as civil rights demonstrations in the streets, and went on for more than twenty years after Brown. A cadre of civil rights unionists played important roles in creating the freedom struggle, including Addie Wyatt and other black women in the United Packinghouse Workers of America; E.D. Nixon, president of the Montgomery branch of the NAACP and an activist in the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters union; that union's national president, A. Philip Randolph; Cleveland Robinson and others in the service industries. They organized both workplace struggles and local and national civil rights campaigns such as the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. Black political leaders like Harold Washington in Chicago and Coleman Young in Detroit also emerged from this confluence of labor and civil rights struggles.

Disability Services: Request for Accommodation Application
William Jewell College is committed to ensuring that educational opportunities, programs, and services offered by the College are available and accessible to all individuals in accordance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA) of 2008, and the Fair Housing Act.
William Jewell College requires any individual requesting accommodations to complete a two part application process. This process allows the College to determine what, if any, accommodations would be most appropriate and reasonable. Individuals requesting an accommodation should submit the following:
1. The Request for Accommodation Form. This link will direct you to the online fillable form. Once submitted, this form will be forwarded to the Office of Disability Services.
2. Supporting Documentation. This link will provide you with a printable instruction sheet for your medical provider, should the provider need guidance on documentation requirements for this process. Supporting documentation from an appropriate licensed medical or educational professional is required in order to substantiate an individual's request for an accommodation. This individual must have the necessary qualifications to accurately and properly diagnose the disability. The information required to support the accommodation request will vary depending on the nature of the disability. This information should be dated within the past 18 months, though there may be times when the College can accept older documentation based on an individual's specific circumstances. This information can be faxed to the Office of Disability Services at 816-415-5093. The information can also be hand delivered to the office by the student making the request. Generally, this report should include:
3. Prescription pad diagnosis does not qualify as acceptable documentation. The licensed medical professional must state the disability findings on official letterhead and include all of the requested medical information above. The College reserves the right to request additional information.
4. A list of guidelines for documentation of specific disabilities, such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Learning Disabilities, Medical/Physical Disabilities, and Psychiatric Disabilities can be obtained by visiting our website: Guidelines for Documentation.
5. Students wishing to file an appeal for exemption from the College's residency requirements or dining plan requirements due to a disability will follow the same process as those requesting an accommodation. If the appeal is based on an allergy, recent blood and/or skin test results will need to be included in the application.
Once the information is received, (a) the individual is notified in writing that his/her request was received, and (b) the evaluation of the request begins immediately.
If supporting documentation is not submitted via fax or delivered to the Office of Disability Services immediately following the online submission of the Request for Accommodation form, the student should promptly submit the information so that accommodation determinations can be made in a timely manner. Granted accommodations do not apply retroactively (meaning you will not be able to redo assignments or retake tests that you took before accommodations were granted) so any delay in providing necessary documentation could have significant academic consequences.
Accommodation determinations are made on a case-by-case basis, and supplying information does not guaranty any accommodations will be provided by the College. The College is not required to provide accommodations that fundamentally alter its programs.
Accommodation requests are accepted at any point during the school year. Please contact the 504 and Compliance Coordinator with questions or concerns. Disability Services is located in Gano Chapel Room 200, and is accessible by elevator. Further information regarding disability services can be found on our website: Disability Services

In the latest incident, the headquarters of his Tony Alamo Christian Ministries Church in the tiny town of Fouke, Ark., was raided over the weekend by more than 100 federal and state officials, and six children were removed from the compound while investigators searched for their parents, according to Arkansas State Police.
The two-year investigation was "aimed at allegations that children living at the Alamo facilities may have been sexually and physically abused," according to Bill Sadler, spokesman for the Arkansas State Police.
"We did make the decision to remove the children that we felt were in harm's way or in imminent danger," said Julie Munsell, spokeswoman for the Arkansas Department of Human Services.
Alamo, who strongly defended the polygamy practiced by the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints Mormon sect after its Texas compound was raided in April, has long advocated that such unions between older men and teenage girls are God's will.
"What I'm doing is fighting for these people that they, the ungodly beast, is throwing into prison for marrying someone 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, if they've reached puberty," he told his radio listeners in an April broadcast.
In other radio sermons, Alamo contended that the Virgin Mary was only 6 when she conceived Jesus, asking his listeners whether that made God a pedophile.
Before the arrest, spokesmen for the FBI and the Arkansas State Police would not discuss whether an arrest warrant is pending for Alamo or whether he has been interviewed as part of their investigation.
"He has been around for a long time, and he is really creepy," said Heidi Beirich, deputy director of the Southern Poverty Law Center's (SPLC) Intelligence Project. "We interviewed some of the ministry's child brides, documented some of the virulent hatred directed at Catholics and have documented many complaints about the ministry, and forwarded the info to the FBI."
It's been a long journey for Bernie LaZar Hoffman, the son of Jewish-Romanian parents, who worked delivering newspapers in Montana as a boy.
Soon after heading out to Los Angeles, he changed his name several times while chasing a career in pop music, singing and producing albums, and claiming that the Beatles and Rolling Stones sought his services as a promoter.
But his life changed during a business meeting in 1964 when he claimed that God temporarily struck him deaf and gave him an ultimatum: Tell everyone that Jesus is coming back to Earth or die, according to an SPLC report on Alamo and his ministry.
Soon after meeting Susan Lipowitz, a Jewish convert to evangelical Christianity, he changed his name to Tony Alamo. The couple set up their Christian foundation in 1969, distributing paranoid screeds about the end of the world to drug-addled hippies on Hollywood Boulevard.
His followers lived in sex-segregated dormitories and suffered a range of punishments -- from beatings to losing their spouses and children -- if they broke Alamo's rules, according to several ex-followers.
"We were in fear of him," said a former devotee who joined the ministry in the '70s and left in 1996. "I joined because I was idealistic and wanted to make the world a better place, telling people that we have the truth."

I'd like to replace two of the three cats, but retain the stock muffler. Was considering the HKS versions for both, but the lower piece replaces both cats without adding one back. What do you think? Do you know of any JDM products that will replace the two lower cats with one high flow cat and fit up to the remaining stock exhaust?

These are the guns i havent used yet. I need to use them all to unlock the weapons room.
Makarov PM-Sup
Remington 870
If anyone knows where these are located it would be greatly appreciated
PSN: Andy12332199
The Ak-47 GL is located on a car in the stealh mission with Special Ops, vs Russians, when you start with M14-Sup and Mk22.
M16A1 SC is on the mission of challenges 8, when you start with an Xm22, against Vietnamieses....
But the easier is to do challenges, there are some weapons of the list that are required...You can find them easily at the beginning.
Sorry if I speak bad English, I'm French.
thx a lot
PSN: Andy12332199
Does anyone know where the M72 and M60 are (levels+locations)?
the challenges have the same weapons in the level as the campaign and ive already looked at the challenges that are left and i already have those guns, does anyone have a list or something
PSN: Andy12332199
Let's see... The AK47 GL is located leaning against a crate in 'on the run' I believe. It's shortly before you jump over the concrete block and into the pipe.
M16A1 SC is in the mission 'River Raiders,' right after the boat section, in the building you spawn in.
M16A1 GL (2) means you failed to kill anyone with the grenade launcher on the M16A1 GL.
Hm... I forget where the M10 unsuppressed is, but the M10 Sup. is in the last mission, when you spawn, you should look right (If I'm remembering which direction you're facing when you spawn correctly) and there should be a house with an open door. It's inside on the table.
PPSh-41 Sup. is available in the mission 'River Raiders,' it's used by several enemies throughout the level.
M60 is in the level 'Behind Enemy Lines,' once you meet up with the Americans at the end, before you clear out the area of enemies, go into the section of the house the Americans are in that you can go in, it should be leaning against the wall next to the door.
M1891/59 Scoped is available in multiple places throughout the campaign, but there's one in the mission where you jump in the back of an enemy truck. Right after you leave the truck to your right, leaning against a crate.
I have yet to find the M40 unsuppressed and the M72 LAW, those are the only ones.
Makarov PM-Sup... I forget where that is... I can see if I can find it again for you.
Remington 870, I believe, can be found somewhere in 'Last Heli Out.'
Hope it helps!
where is the rpd i cant find it please tell me the location
All I need is m14-standard, and both sniper rifles, unsuppressed.
2 left, found the regular m40 in the same room you find the LAW in the prison escape level.
Oh, suppressed Makarov is in the level "Welcome to the Jungle" just before you exit the tunnels. Look next to the ak's

Ingham Launches System to Prevent Property Fraud
By Scott Pohl, WKAR News
MASON, MI – Ingham County Register of Deeds Curtis Hertel Junior has announced the launch of a new system designed to help residents prevent property fraud.
Subscribing to the system is free. Those who register will get a phone call or an email any time a property document is filed in their name.
Hertel says victims could find a cloud on their title when they try to sell their home, or be billed for a mortgage they hadn't applied for. He says the easiest way to commit property fraud has been to forge a quit-claim deed.
"You have to forge for the person who actually owns the property, and a fake notary public, and all of a sudden, you name's on the property," he says. "I mean, it's not a hard crime to commit. We don't want to publicize that, but we kind of have to in order to get citizens to understand it. It's a very easy crime to commit."
Identity theft is another method used to commit property fraud. Someone can take out a mortgage in your name, and then steal the equity in your home.
The system cost $15,000 and will cost $3,000 a year to maintain.

£1m Boost for Business in Blackpool
Story supplied by LU Press Office
Twenty new jobs and over a million pounds worth of new sales are the result of a two year project by Lancaster University's InfoLab21 to help local firms in Blackpool become more competitive.
The Blackpool Business Development Initiative provided marketing support to more than eighty small and medium sized companies.Each company received a tailored package of marketing support, for example market research, branding and website development.
Project Manager Anthony Cook, from the University's Knowledge Business Centre, first spent time visiting the firms individually to find out their needs.
He said: "Most smaller firms can't afford marketing but they come to realise its importance because it makes a significant impact on their business."
The companies which the University has helped range from to a CCTV firm, hotels and manufacturing to those engaged in ICT.
Peter Trunkfield is the managing director of UK Travel Planners which offers car hire and accommodation for overseas visitors. He said business had increased tenfold since Lancaster University set up an e-commerce website to enable customers to book cars online.
Peter added: "I'm delighted - it's made the business and we've taken on more staff. We've achieved in a few months what it would have taken us three or four years to do otherwise.
"Before we had a free phone number for people to call from Australia and Canada but that generated a lot of paperwork and now people can book on the web it's much easier."
The project was part funded by the European Regional Development Fund and was run in partnership with Business Link and Blackpool Borough Council.
Peter Legg, the council's Head of Economic Regeneration said: "We're interested in supporting all businesses in Blackpool and offering them the opportunity to improve their competitive position. Working with the University has been proved through a number of projects to improve that position."
The University's Knowledge Business Centre is based at InfoLab21, a £15m centre of excellence for IT and communications technologies funded by Lancaster University, the Northwest Development Agency (NWDA), the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE). Staff at the KBC aim to enable businesses and academics to work together to develop new products and processes through industry training and technology transfer.

STEVE'S CUTIE; Exclusive: First pic of snooker ace Davis' new lover.
THIS is the young girlfriend who snooker ace Steve Davis started dating just weeks before announcing he'd split from his wife of 15 years.
Office assistant Jeannie Marsh, 31, met the sports star while drinking with friends at an upmarket seaside bar.
The couple hit it off straight away and millionaire Davis, 47, announced a separation from his wife Judith, 44, soon afterwards. Now brunette Jeannie is "seriously dating" ginger-haired Steve. Her parents Roberta and Derek say she met him in a bar in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex. Derek added: "He told her his marriage had effectively dissolved."
A friend of the snooker ace said: "Steve's marriage was over but it wasn't public knowledge. Then Jeannie came along and he had to put his house in order. If he and Jude divorce it will be sad, but Jeannie's given him new hope."
But the new couple have not spent much time together because of Steve's work.
The snooker star - once branded so boring that TV's Spitting Image lampooned him as Steve "Interesting" Davis - is booked at exhibition matches all over Britain for months ahead. The pounds 1million mansion in Stondon Massey, Essex, where he lives with Judith and their sons Greg, 13, and Jack 11, is a short drive from Jeannie's pounds 130,000 flat. And while he tours the country in a new BMW and supplements his earnings with TV ads and guest appearances, Jeannie drives an old Ford Focus to her job at a local tractor firm.
One neighbour said: "Shekeeps herself to herself. We had to smile when we found out she was going out with a celebrity. You'd think a man with his money could have his pick of women, but he's settled on a local girl. It's quite sweet."
Judith, an ex-air hostess, forgave her husband when he cheated on her with blonde dancer Cheree Palla, 19.
Cheree claimed the pair made love seven times a night and added: "He used to make me run around the hotel room with just my knickers on."
New love.. office girl Jeannie; Cue for a split.. with wife Judith, and on winning snooker form

Hey, I'm just reading your blog now, your house is BEAUTIFUL! Technically it's almost identical on the outside to ours, but gah, we have crappy walls and floors and no trim on the windows. Gives me something to aspire to. Maybe I'll bookmark it and come back to dream. Of course we've already taken sledge hammer to the builtin dining room cabinet - ours was IDENTICAL except for the window glass. Mine had leaded glass diamond panes... but I tell ya, freaky almost!

Debate continued today on an ordinance that would ban nudity in any public place in Hillsborough County when David Caton and Joe Redner both spoke at a meeting of the Tiger Bay Club in Tampa. Caton, who is a self-proclaimed family activist, originally brought the issue of a nudity ordinance before the Commission because of what he sees as a link between nudity and incidences of both rape and domestic violence. Redner, who has run for County Commission several times and owns adult establishments in Tampa believes that the ordinance is unnecessary and would be a violation of his rights and the rights of those who work for him. WMNFââ¬â¢s Kristen Friend-Weaver attended the debate and files this reportââ¬Â¦
Both Caton and Redner came to Tiger Bay with ample statistics, and both men believe that research supports their respective positions. Caton attributes his push for a public nudity ordinance to a November 2002 article in the Tampa Tribune that reported a rise in incidences of rape in Tampa. He began his statements by describing the typical victim as a young, white female, and saying that this victim was more than twice as likely to be raped by a stranger in Tampa than in any other city in the country. He also used data comparing Tampa to Miami that he says shows that Tampaââ¬â¢s forcible rape rate is more that double that of Miami. He continued by saying these reports cannot be ignoredââ¬Â¦
Redner countered with the argument that he would never have been able to operate if any of Catonââ¬â¢s evidence could actually be proven true. He called Catonââ¬â¢s logic ââ¬Åfaith without reason,ââ¬? and accused him of allowing religion to interfere with politics. Redner pointed out that there has never been an arrest at one of his establishments for prostitution, and claimed that the prostitution rate around his establishments is virtually nothing. Redner says that he has been winning this argument for decades and will continue to win because facts are on his sideââ¬Â¦
He continued by pointing out how the Tampa/Miami data can be deceivingââ¬Â¦
County commissioners already decided by a 5-2 vote in May to hold a workshop on the ordinance instead of putting it to referendum. The issue failed to make it to the ballot because of criticism from Commissioners Pat Frank and Jan Platt. Commissioner Platt believes that there is no legally defensible rational for the ordinance, and Commissioner Frank considers it a non-issue. Caton however, stressed that he believes the issue should still make it to a public voteââ¬Â¦
A major component of the argument against a referrendum is the idea that the county cannot be responsible for forcing the city of Tampa to enact a law that it did not approve. Pat Frank attended the debate today and asked Caton why he didnââ¬â¢t take his case to the City of Tampa where the debate would be more appropriate. Caton responded by saying that he did not believe that he had as much support form the cityââ¬Â¦
Overall, the attitude of those attending the lunch was skeptical about the convincingness of Catonââ¬â¢s data. Several people pointed out that he kept using words like ââ¬Åmayââ¬? and ââ¬Åmightââ¬? and others accused him of using selective studies. One member went to far as to claim that the Catholic Church also seems to cause rape, and asked Caton why he did not attack the Church. Others accused him of externalizing an internal problem he has with nudity. Caton replied to these accusations by saying that the questions were insulting and that he would not justify them with an answer.
However, not everyone at the meeting agreed with Joe Redner. One member accused Redner of barely passing for a legitimate businessman, and asked how what he does is different from pimping. Redner responded by saying that he did not understand why activities between consenting adults had to be demeaning to one partyââ¬Â¦
Although the fate of ordinance still seems unclear because it is mired in debate in the County Commission, both Caton and Redner vowed that they would keep fighting their battles no matter what other people feel about them. For WMNF news, Iââ¬â¢m Kristen Friend-Weaverââ¬Â¦comments powered by Disqus

Cottages & Studios
Old School Charm
We have nine cabins with full kitchens, a large porch with a picnic table, outdoor lounge chairs and bbq grill. They are clustered around a main area that has the campfire, basketball court, outdoor ping pong table, and lots of tables and chairs for hanging out. Because we are a small resort we do not have a restaurant or snack bar and guests prepare all their own meals. While we provide linens, we don't provide daily maid service and we do ask that guests sweep and clean dishes before departure.
Cottage 5-person
Three rooms - a vintage kitchen, a cozy bedroom with a queen-bed and a sitting room with a convertible double bed and a child-sized single bed. Two of these units (9&10) are dog friendly. Woof!
Cottage 4-person
Three rooms - a vintage kitchen, a cozy bedroom with a queen-bed and a sitting room with a convertible double bed. These units have a wood-burning stove and a lovely view from the kitchen over the river.
Studio 4-person
The three studio style units share one building. Each has one large room that contains the kitchen, a queen-sized bed and a full-sized convertible couch. They all have wood-burning stoves. These units average 320 square feet and have larger bathrooms than the cottage style units.
None of our cabins have air-conditioning, but every room has a ceiling fan.

I had such joy this past week meeting this little boy Mateo and photographing him among the spring daffodils. He took just a little bit to warm up but then he was all smiles and I just wanted to call him Mr.Sunshine …especially being among the bright yellow daffodils. His seriousness in these first couple of images was so sweet but as you browse through the images you will see how he just comes alive with his charming little personality.
There's all new pricing for photo sessions at Joyful Reflections Photography…call today to book your Spring session! Mother's Day is just around the corner! Happy Day!
