2014 Returning Student E-News
Summer is a wonderful time of the year. It gives us a break from the routine of the academic year and the opportunity to do new and different things. I checked in with a few of your classmates and they are doing a variety of things.
- Adam Thomas is enjoying spending time with his family, working at a local grocery store and taking two online classes.
- Gabi Brown says she is working like crazy with three summer jobs, yet finding time to enjoy a few summer concerts.
- Max Kittle is interning this summer at ARC Performance Center, lifeguarding and leading a track camp at a local high school
While there are fewer people on campus in the summer still there is lots of purposeful activity. The ground floor of the Library is being renovated to house IDEA-U and a self-service printing area. IDEA-U is a new institutional initiative funded by a Lilly grant to promote purposeful innovation, collaboration and entrepreneurship. Other renovations on campus include the expansion of a Nursing Computer Lab, and the establishment of engineering labs.
Additionally, the search for Anderson University's next President is ongoing. There is a special website, Presidential Search, set up for official communication about the process.
We are planning our second annual Welcome Weekend before classes begin. You will be able to enjoy a cookout, a movie, and a worship service with All Sons and Daughters. It should be a great time to reunite with your friends and have some fun before classes begin. In addition to the activities that are planned some of your classmates are looking forward to:
- Mallory Bruce is looking forward to being back in the most amazing and supportive community she has ever experienced.
- Mirenty Rakotomalala is looking forward to participating in intramurals and getting to know more of her classmates this year.
- Joseph Otori is working on campus this summer. He is looking forward to classes resuming so he can interact with friends, other students and the faculty.
Whatever your reasons for wanting to come back to campus, we are looking forward to your return. AU is a special place because of the people who belong to this community. If you have questions or there is anything we can do to help your transition back to school please contact us in the department of student life.

I love the refining mask! I was using a lot of harsh acne products on my face. I wanted to get away from using all the benzoyl peroxide washes and retinoids. I use it before going to bed 3-4 days per week. It really helps keep my pores clear. I can notice the build-up if I forget to use it for a few days. I love that it is not harsh.

This is a good product but be forewarned...its first ingredient is sulphur and you smell like sulphur after using it! I only use it when I'm about to get in the shower and about to wash my hair. Otherwise, I smell like sulphur and it's noticeable by others.

Gov. Brewer: Dinner at White House doesn't mean change of heart
WASHINGTON -- Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer said people should not take her attendance at a White House dinner Sunday night as a suggestion that she and President Barack Obama are now "BFFs."
Brewer, who took heat last year when she skipped a White House dinner that was part of the National Governors Association meeting, made a point of scheduling the dinner this year.
"So now I go today and now it's that we're BFFs," a laughing Brewer said Monday, using slang shorthand for "best friends forever."
The governor's absence from the 2012 dinner came up at the time on "Meet the Press," when Brewer said the gathering was just "a social thing."
"You know, I am a governor, I've got priorities and I will be there Monday when we all meet and � discuss policy," she said then.
Back in Washington this weekend for the governors' annual meeting, Brewer attended both the Sunday night dinner and a Monday luncheon at the White House with the other governors.
"Last year I had another event that had been scheduled that was very important to the economy in the state of Arizona, so I chose to go to that because I knew I was going to be with the president the next day," Brewer said Monday. "And I got a bum rap on that, that I was being disrespectful or whatever it was.
"My planning (this year) was strategically done so that I could go attend last night and today, and I was pleased that I did," she said Monday.
At this year's dinner, Obama spoke for a few minutes to the assembled governors, touching on the need for the country to work together to rebuild the economy and find solutions to other challenges.
"The task before us is to find smart, common-sense solutions to each of these challenges that we can move forward on. And I'm looking for good partners," Obama said, according to a transcript of the meeting.
He made much the same pitch at a Monday lunch with the governors. Brewer said she understood why Obama would reach out, but it would be a hard sell for Republican governors to take back to their delegations.
Bruce Merrill, senior research fellow with the Morrison Institute for Public Policy, said Brewer's attendance at this year's White House dinner is not likely to have any significant impact politically.
He said Brewer still maintains a strong standing with the Tea Party, stemming from her confrontation with the president on a Phoenix tarmac in January 2012. The picture of her pointing her finger at the president presented an image of someone with the courage to stand up Obama, Merrill said.
"Just the fact that she went to this dinner isn't going to change that," he said.
Merrill said only Brewer knows if she had change of heart or if her decision to attend this year's dinner was politically motivated.
"Without really knowing why she did it, either last year or this year, anybody can prescribe motivations to it, but nobody except her really knows," Merrill said.
For her part, Brewer seems resigned to having her actions interpreted -- or misinterpreted.
"It doesn't matter what I do, it's just like it goes someplace else," she said.

Dear CustOMER or Curious Visitor,
The retail side of the REMO General Store went to sleep indefinitely on 1 May 2012.
Sorry about that, but we had a good run :)
For almost 24 years REMO served and delighted a network of CustOMERs located in over 140 countries throughout the world. It was a fun ride ... and not without its ups and downs. Mostly, it was rewarding for everyone involved.
Facebook timeline HERE. Some examples of CustOMER love HERE.
Q: So what now for REMO?
A: If you're on the REMO mailing list (join it HERE) you'll hear if and when anything changes.
RETAIL is gone but the stories and the spirit live on in the BRAND.
It's possible that the REMO branded merchandise for which we were most famous will become available elsewhere thanks to the imagination and efforts of other people. We'll let our mailing list know if and when anything happens on that front.
Meanwhile, our Custom Service remains AVAILABLE for the following REMO branded items (with minimum order quantities in brackets): notebooks & planners (500), customised keyrings (500), organic australian t shirts (200), fine waffleweave towels (50) & wall clocks (10). Request more information about this ongoing service HERE.
Thanks CustOMERs for all of your support over the years. It's been a really GREAT adventure, and we're all the better for it.
It's been an honour to serve you all.

I just finished my third week of a ten week bootcamp and kickboxing workout program. I've had a tender right knee since my days of sports, but I just noticed today that when I flex my left knee it has a really distinct crunching sound that is lasting and sustained. In other words, not just one "pop" but a sustained crunching sound all through the flex. Here's the kicker: the knee is not sore and I feel no pain in it at all.
Any ideas or things that I should watch for?

There are all sorts of reasons people disappear from message boards. I have had some (I thought) quite close friends who stopped posting and were never heard from again.
It's usually nothing sinister, although I did send an email to a friend in Karachi once after the earthquakes in Islamabad. I didn't think he'd be in trouble as they were a long way from each other. I was most shocked when I got a reply from his wife telling me that he was attending a seminar in Islamabad when the earthquake hit and that she hadn't heard anything from him. It was a scary time, but he was ok, just unable to contact anyone.
I think you sort of get a different mindset about Internet friends after a while as some friendships can be somewhat transitory.

Quil, are you talking about the political parties in the UK, I suspect, or in the US (in which case you don't know what you're talking about). But as an outsider, I think that you have two major parties Labor & Tory, but I know that there are several smaller parties.

What disturbs me, is that you don't seem to have any system where the people can express their views in a meaningful way--no regularly scheduled elections, and no way to turn the party in power out, as far as I can see, baring a vote of no confidence (is that right?). I'm rather disturbed by the fact that you seem to have an "inherited PM" now and while the US is looking at some type of major change (for the better one hopes), is there anything similar going on in the UK? Is there any way for the people to initiate this?

Obviously the example with which you started this is ridiculous--and suggests that there need to be some changes in public policy. We have our own shade of ridiculous--at least in my judgment. A 72 year old fighter pilot turned senator with a woman with 2 years experience in governing a state, no ideas or experience on foreign policy or really on national issues, and quite far right conservative as far as most women in this country. The thought of her stepping into the Presidency when she met her first foreign leader (in her whole life) today at a short conference while the President of Afghanistan was at the UN with no press permitted --scares the hell out of me.

After the slow drip of pictures comes the real thing. Welcome to the Kia GT4 Stinger concept - a rear-drive, 311bhp, pared down sportster concept revealed at this year's Detroit motor show. Yes: a 300+bhp, rear-wheel drive Kia.
Kia finally reveals RWD Stinger concept
Is this 311bhp back-to-basics sportster the Korean GT86?
It's been built on a bespoke chassis with all-round independent double-wishbone suspension, powered by the same 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine you'll find in the manufacturer's Optima racer, and its 1304kg mass is distributed at 52 per cent up front and 48 per cent at the rear.
There's no fancypants double-clutch 'box here, either - it's a resolutely analogue six-speed manual, which sends power to 20-inch rims wearing Pirelli P-Zero tyres. Behind them there's a set of 15-inch Brembo brakes. Tres racey.
Inside, it's pretty stark. Like the lightweight Porsche Boxster Spyder, it has no stereo, lightweight doors, slim bucket seats, and those silly nylon door pulls instead of proper handles. Kia's gone one step further too, leaving out the carpet and fitting rubber mats behind the billet alloy pedals instead.
Not a million miles off Toyota's back-to-basics GT86 remit, then, only with a lot more power. And yes, while it's just a concept, Kia's Chief Scribbler at the company's American design studio says, "If anyone were to ask if Kia has the credibility to build a car like the GT4 Stinger I would simply point out that Kia races Optimas - and wins - against some of the world's most legendary performance brands [in the Pirelli World Challenge series]."
Fightin' talk. And lets not forget, that this follows the racy(ish) and unfortunately named Provo concept, and an announcement that the company will build a RWD super-saloon based on the GT concept.
So it's official. Kia are officially no longer boring. Just as long as they build this...

YIELD: Makes 1 (9-inch) pie, serving 8 to 10
On a lightly floured board, roll out the dough (it may need to soften for 5 or 10 minutes first) into a 12-inch circle. Fit into a 9-inch pie pan, trim any ends hanging over the side, and flute the edge with your thumb. Chill until ready to use.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
For the filling, wash and hull the strawberries. Cut them in half and place in a large bowl. Add the blackberries and raspberries and toss with the Grand Marnier. In a separate bowl, combine the brown sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon. Add to the berries and gently toss.
For the topping, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, walnuts, and butter in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the mixture resembles small peas. To make by hand, cut the butter into the flour and sugar, using a pastry cutter. Finely chop the walnuts and add in along with the oats.
Fill the chilled pie shell with the filling and cover thoroughly with the topping. Bake for 1 hour, until bubbling and golden brown on top.

When we started working on this '57 hardtop in the 2013 issue of Chevy Classics, it had been sitting for almost 20 years, as its owner tried to figure out a course of action for fixing its solid but hacked up floor and firewall from a previous owner's butchering. Thanks to the ever-growing Tri-Five Chevy parts market and Classic Industries, instead of a complicated series of patches involving metal fabrication, we were able to install a brand-new, one-piece floor and firewall, solving most of this car's ills. That just left the trunk floor.
The plans for this '57 involve bolting it to an aftermarket chassis of some sort, stuffing in the baddest LS motor the owner can build, and turning the hardtop into a monster Pro Touring machine. To achieve this, we knew at least a 315-width tire would have to be installed out back. This meant mini-tubbing. So, the fairly solid trunk floor was gonna need to be modified, along with repaired, because of rust in the floor and the tailpanel area. Once again, Classic Industries provided the perfect answer: its deep-well trunk floor, which comes pre-narrowed for a mini-tub installation.
Even though it took a little more work than the passenger floor, the trunk unit went in fairly easily, and the fit was perfect. In this story, we're going to cover getting the floor in place and ready, so in the next installment we can measure and cut for the mini-tubs, weld them in, weld the floor in place, and finish up by installing the tailpanel. Once done, our '57's body will be as good as new—with all-new metal from the firewall to the trunk—and ready for us to begin the next phase of the project.
|Classic Industries Parts List
|Tailpanel – TF400652
|Deep Tub Trunk Floor – TF400952
1 Here's what we started with. Overall, our trunk floor wasn't in bad shape, but the metal on the passenger side was a bit thin with a couple of pinholes, and back by the tailpanel and tail brace, there was some rust.
2 One of the reasons we're doing this install is to make room for a mini-tub modification, so we'll be able to stuff at least a 315-size tire in the back. With the stock wheeltubs, this is impossible.
3 The first step in removing the floor was using a MAP gas torch to melt away all the old paint, Bondo, and lead on the seam between the tailpanel and taillight-area metal.
4 Once we started digging, we realized the car's original tailpanel was badly rusted out, along with the tailpanel brace underneath it. This is a normal area for rust on Tri-Five bodies, as it's a collection point for water running down the back of the car.
5 Using a Sawzall, we cut inside the tailpanel seams to remove the panel. We'll go back later and drill out the spot welds holding the end pieces to the rest of the body and prep them for a new tailpanel install.
6 Under the tailpanel, we found serious rust damage to the tailpanel brace. Fortunately, the new trunk floor comes with the brace already installed. If all you need is the brace, Classic Industries sells it separately.
7 To make things easier, we started to use a Sawzall to cut out sections of the floor.
8 After a little bit of fighting to get the Sawzall into certain angles, we pitched that and grabbed our plasma cutter and used it to carve up our old trunk floor. The plasma cutter made quick work of it.
9 After about 30 minutes of cut-ting, here's where we stood. We stopped short of the factory shock mounts because we'd need to do some more delicate work to get that section removed.

The Food of Security
11 Jul 13
Simone Gie and Anandi Soans
Could one of India's most ancient grains play a big part in the country's future? Millets are among the earliest known cultivated cereals and, used to make porridge, ground into flour for flatbreads or fermented into beer, have been an important element in the diets of India's rural population for thousands of years.
During the Green Revolution of the 1960s, India saw an influx of technology, chemicals and high-yield seeds to support water-guzzling monocultures. It consequently lost many of the traditional crop varieties long adapted to its regions, climates and cultures. As the government pushed rice and wheat production, the farming and consumption of millets fell drastically along with their status. Increasingly relegated to use as animal fodder or for food processing, they were deemed the 'poor man's grain'. While advocates of the Green Revolution claimed it was effective in warding off famine, it actually caused the abandonment of crops that could have played an important role in improving the country's precarious food security.
The millets – a group of cereal varieties such as sorghum, pearl, foxtail and finger millet – contain high levels of protein, fiber, iron, beta-carotene, calcium and other vitamins and minerals, in many cases several times higher than those of rice and wheat. Over millennia, they have adapted to many different climates and difficult growing conditions, such as poor soils and high temperatures, in areas where a small Celsius increase could wipe out thermal-sensitive wheat. Millets require very little water and can survive in drought-like conditions without irrigation. In short, they can be grown in areas where other cereal crops would perish.
India's poor small-scale farmers are often the owners of poor land in dry regions where millets are the only crops that can be grown. Rediscovering traditional millet varieties could therefore play a part in fighting malnutrition and restoring self-sufficiency to their communities. While wheat and rice might provide short-term food security, millets can offer multiple securities: food, fodder, health, livelihood, particularly in the face of looming climate change.
Slow Food and the Indigenous Partnership for Agrobiodiversity and Food Sovereignty have recognized the need for a revival of this wonder grain by launching a network of indigenous millet producers across the country. The Millet Network project aims to facilitate the exchange of knowledge among farmers about cultivation, processing and value adding, and hence create the support that a network provides.
The project also aims to facilitate production for farmers by introducing training and mechanical processing methods, considering that millet processing requires intensive manual labor and therefore risks increasing the workload of the women in local communities. The cultural and traditional facets of millet will be an important focus of the project, and local professional chefs will thus be involved, helping to bring back the 'lost taste' of millets and promote the cereals as a tool for creating a brighter future for food and farming in India.

When planning your little girl's next birthday party, consider choosing a theme that will make her and all her friends giddy: plan a Strawberry Shortcake party!
There are very few children's parties with a cartoon theme that would be easier to improvise, but first, cover all your bases to make sure there is enough of Strawberry Shortcake at the party. Make sure you get the basic party supplies—plates, cups, balloons, and a cake—and then get creative with the rest of the food and games.
For food, you will obviously want to stock up on strawberries. But, don't' stop there! Strawberry has plenty of sweet friends: Blueberry Muffin, Raspberry Torte, Plum Pudding, Orange Blossom, Lemon Meringue, and Strawberry's cat Custard. Take your food cues from these other characters!
When it's time for games and activities, think about what Strawberry Shortcake would like to do! Encourage the guests to come dressed as their favorite character and have a costume contest. Or maybe you can plan a fashion show! Consider helping the girls make their own strawberry-scented perfume to take home as a party favor or color Strawberry Shortcake coloring pages to take home.
For the perfect gift, surprise your little girl with a Strawberry Shortcake bedroom! For a small gift, start with wall decals or a nightlight. If you're thinking big, then go big with bed sheets and kid-sized furniture! With her new bedroom, your daughter can enjoy the Strawberry Shortcake party long after her birthday has passed.

By Claire Walla
More than 50 years after receiving his diploma from the Art Institute of Chicago, renowned cartoonist and Sag Harbor resident Gahan Wilson has been awarded an honorary doctorate. Wilson traveled to the windy city last weekend for the graduation ceremony.
I'm curious, what was it like to attend your second graduation ceremony?
It was marvelous! They decked us out in gowns and puffy hats. I had always wondered what those were for. The flattop hats are for the people who have graduated from some specific class. The fluffy hats are for doctors… I'm a doctor now!
So, what does it feel like to be a doctor?
I actually had a hilarious experience before I left for the trip. I went to the [medical] doctor I go to and this [doctorate] thing came up. My doctor looked at me, excused himself, then came back with his associate. It was fascinating: they looked at me differently, with a look I had never seen from either one of them before—I think it was because I was a doctor. It was just eerie.
Do you think they did that consciously?
I don't know… they just did it. Like, "He's achieved our level." This was an equal looking upon an equal.
What made you decide to be an artist?
I had been leaning that way ever since I was itsy bitsy. I even remember the day I decided. It was Christmas morning and I was sitting on the carpet on the Sunday comics. I looked down at Dick Tracey—it was a particularly gory episode—and I said, "I'm going to do that!" And that was it.
How old were you?
Oh, under 10. Maybe closer to five… I was just a little thing on the floor.
Where did your inspiration come from?
Since I was young I had been an avid science fiction reader; I loved the idea of weirdness and oddness. When I came on the scene [in the 1940s], there was some experimental stuff going on, but I managed to sell some pieces even when I was told, "they wouldn't understand," or "you have to play to the market." I just brushed that aside and did the best I could.
Why did you decide art school was the way to go?
That's where I went to learn. I had taken art classes, and they varied. Some were good, some were pretty feeble. (I was a hard critic.) When I got old enough my parents were generous enough to let me go to commercial schools, and that was fun; we would doodle and draw still lifes. But, it wasn't enough. I got interested in the Art Institute and realized it was way ahead of what these other people were doing.
How has the school changed since you were a student?
When I was there, the school was kind of tucked away in the museum. To get to class, you had to keep crossing through the museum from one hiding place to another, rooms of Goyas and Cezannes. We had this infusion of beautiful stuff to keep us going.
The museum still has a good deal of that stuff, but they expanded the school by buying buildings or parts of buildings in the city and establishing classrooms in those places.
What were the classes like?
When I was there they just taught classic art stuff, painting, drawing, lithographs. Now they've included all that new electronic stuff, like computer graphics, but also three-dimensional machines. So, you can make a sculpture, have it read by the machine, and out comes a reproduction of that thing! I itch to play with those toys.
Has this given you the desire to go back to school?
No. But, it's certainly given me a push. I need to do more doodling.

By All Means, Politicize the Bin Laden Killing
Imagine that you called a carpenter to come repair your deck, and after looking at the rotted timbers and split rails, he said, "Well, I can fix this deck. But the one thing I'm not going to do is come over here and engage in a bunch of carpentry. That would be wrong."
You'd probably suspect that the carpenter was insane. Yet politicians and their campaign advisers–people for whom politics is a profession no less than carpentry is the carpenter's profession–are constantly complaining that their opponents are engaged in "politics," or are committing the horrible sin of "politicizing" something that shouldn't be political.
So it was when Barack Obama's re-election campaign took the opportunity of the one-year anniversary of the killing of Osama Bin Laden to remind voters who was president when it happened, in the form of an ad retelling the story and questioning whether Mitt Romney would have made the same decision as Obama did were he in the Oval Office at the time. The condemnations came from the expected places, and even one or two unexpected places (Arianna Huffington called the ad "one of the most despicable things you can do"). No one said that the Obama campaign was lying about anything, or raising an issue that ought to be irrelevant to a presidential campaign. The only problem seemed to be that an incumbent president was taking political advantage of the purest moment of triumph in his first term to argue that the voters ought to grant him a second. Shocking. Surely Republicans would never stoop so low.
Romney protested that "of course" he would have ordered the raid that killed Bin Laden, but the truth is we don't really know whether he would have. And that's precisely why we ought to have these discussions. There are things about a presidency we can predict well, and things we can't. For instance, when Barack Obama ran for president, he said he wanted a comprehensive health care reform, and when he took office, he pursued it in largely (but not exactly) the same form he had advocated during the campaign. Mitt Romney says he wants to cut taxes, and we can be pretty sure if he wins office, he'll try to cut taxes. Presidents keep the overwhelming majority of the promises they make as candidates, so the best way to predict what they'll do in office is to look at what they propose during the campaign.
But foreign policy, particularly in matters of war, is very different. Legislation, where you follow a precise (if often maddening) course from bill to law, is all but irrelevant. You have to respond to events that can't be foreseen, involving people and forces from other nations that are often difficult to understand and even harder to predict. So when we're trying to determine what kind of actions a potential president would or wouldn't take in foreign policy, we have to piece together a picture from an inconclusive jumble of statements, experiences, and character traits. Each might give us some hint of how the next president will deal with changing and dangerous situations throughout the world, but no combination will make us certain we know what this candidate would do.
And when it comes to crisis situations like the Bin Laden raid, we have even less to go on. Mitt Romney has been a corporate leader and a governor, but he's never been in a situation where he had a short amount of time to make a decision that could potentially result in the deaths of many people and a national humiliation, or an extraordinary and lasting triumph. Barack Obama had never been in that situation before becoming president either. The last president who had that kind of experience before coming to the White House was Dwight Eisenhower.
At the moment, we're arguing about something that has already happened, not something that might happen in the future, which if nothing else takes fear out of the equation (to a degree, at least). That's in stark contrast to 2004, when Republicans literally argued that if John Kerry were elected, terrorists would kill us. ("It's absolutely essential that eight weeks from today, on Nov. 2, we make the right choice, " said Dick Cheney on the campaign trail, "because if we make the wrong choice then the danger is that we'll get hit again and we'll be hit in a way that will be devastating from the standpoint of the United States.") But that also means that the discussion we have about the Bin Laden killing is a few steps removed from whatever crisis the president will face in 2013 or 2014, and how he'll approach the life-or-death decision he has to make.
And there will be such a crisis; we just don't know what it will involve. As Barack Obama has pointed out repeatedly, the president doesn't have to make the easy decisions; those are handled at the staff level. It's the complicated, uncertain, damned-if-you-do-damned-if-you-don't decisions that reach the Oval Office. "Politics" is the only means we have to assess what each of these two men will bring to that moment when it comes. It might not be a particularly good guide, but it's all we've got.
Fri, 2012-05-04 09:05
I would dispute that the last presidential candidate to be in a situation where decisions could results in deaths and national humiliation was Eisenhower. For instance, George H. W. Bush was both VP during Reagan's near death and was Director of Central Intelligence (back when the DCI was head of the intelligence community). It is laughable to assume that Bush's CIA tenure didn't have countless decisions where he had to decide to risk or not risk agents lives. Likewise, few things create greater national humiliation than botched intelligence.
And though you give short shrift to the office governor, remember that they command the National Guard and state police forces in their states and are responsible for risking those men and women. Afterall, Reagan was the authority behind "Bloody Thursday" and called out thousands of National Guard to put down protests. Hate the decisions if you will, but people died - and potentially a lot more could have - and there was major risk of national humiliation. Likewise Dukakis had to make hard and life endangering decisions to shut down MA after the blizzard of 78 or to commute sentences for convicted murders. Even Clinton had to deal with serious, life-threatening issues like the Fort Chaffee Riots.
If we are willing to drop down to making life or death decisions only, then every presidential candidate since WWII has been there. Kerry and McCain both were military officer's who had to make life and death decisions. The truth is most presidential candidates have held executive power that has required them to make life or death decisions.
Obama is unique for having never held executive power nor held military command at any level. This doesn't change anything about the need to vet candidates, but it is farcical to pretend that other presidential candidates were wholly unvetted on these types of decisions.

It is also important to remember what the President said when interviewed. When asked for his response when he saw the confirming photo of Bin Ladin's body, he paused before he said that it was not a "high five" moment. He then spoke of a quiet sense of satisfaction for the 9-11 families who ,hopefully, can now feel some sense of closure on that enormous tragedy. I/we did not see or hear even a hint of " mission accomplished". I will be 80 y/o next 9/11.
Fri, 2012-05-04 19:42
It is just standard basic right wing hypocrisy. Had a Republican ordered the killing of Bin Laden they would be yelling it from the rooftops, screaming it from Fox news, and including it in every single political ad that they run. Because President Obama accomplished it it is "politicizing" an event that should be off-limits and somehow wrong.

Whenever I hear the GOP talking heads rail against the Prez "politicizing" the Bin Laden takedown, I call up the image of young Bush landing on a carrier outside San Diego, climbing down and, in flight suit (with the added codpiece) declare victory in Iraq. At least the president actually accomplished something that he could take singular credit for, for crying out load,

Ritual Knife
This is the best-preserved and most detailed example of a type of late Predynastic knife with rows of animals on both sides of the handle. There are 227 animals of 19 species covering this handle, and even the sides of its thumb rest (which is placed to be held by a right-handed person). The purpose of such knives and the significance of their decoration are not known. Most known examples seem to have belonged to men of the highest rank, but this example has the added mystery of having been found in an otherwise modest grave.

The back edge is straight, very slightly recurving to tip, the cutting edge very slightly curving finally curving in a hemicycle to back edge. Butt bluntly pointed. The butt is hidden in a handle of carved ivory. On one face, near inner end, there is an oblong knob, perforated longitudinally with a string-hole. Both faces are covered with relief of animals arranged in rows without groundlines. One of the most important documents of prehistoric art. Condition: The blade has a chip in the cutting edge for ritual destruction, and is broken in two at the point (now mended). The handle has been restored from numerous fragments and fixed in place. It is in fragile condition and parts of the relief are missing.
- Record Completeness: Best (91%)

Pope, a 5-star recruit from Sacramento area, makes verbal commitment to San Diego St.
Ranking of SDSU recruit Malik Pope by
Rivals.com in the class of 2014
Here's what happens when you go 34-3, reach the NCAA Tournament four straight years, have a head coach who mentored the Fab Five, sell out a 12,414-seat arena in August, and have a pipeline to star basketball players from Sacramento.
You get Malik Pope.
The five-star forward told U-T San Diego on Wednesday night that he is orally committing to San Diego State, just days after he visited Kansas during Midnight Madness festivities at Allen Fieldhouse and a few weeks before he was supposed to visit Gonzaga. Also among his nine finalists: Arizona, UCLA, USC, Washington, Oregon and Cal.
"I'm expecting us to be really good," Pope said by phone. "I'm setting the bar really high for the future."
The 6-foot-9 Pope from Elk Grove's Laguna Creek High is the No. 17 player in the class of 2014 according to
Rivals.com, which would make him the highest-rated prep signee in SDSU history. Winston Shepard was No. 21 in 2012, and Kawhi Leonard No. 48 in 2009.
The first day recruits can sign a binding letter of intent is Nov. 13.
That yet another player from the Sacramento area is picking the Aztecs should hardly come as a surprise. Pope would be the fifth in five years, joining Chase Tapley from last season's team, senior point guard Xavier Thames and freshmen Dakarai Allen and D'Erryl Williams.
"They are buddies from way back when," Pope said of Allen and Williams. "They definitely encouraged me."
Pope fractured his leg in February, rehabilitated it without surgery and returned to the court over the summer, only to break it again in early September and have pins surgically inserted. That reduced his appearances on the club circuit and likely will scrap his senior season in high school, but apparently not his prospects at the next level.
LeRohn Dodson, his club coach from Team Superstar, has been around AAU ball for 18 years and has worked with two dozen future NBA players. "He's just as talented as any of them," Dodson said of Pope.
Despite measuring 6-9 in bare feet and still growing, Pope is a natural 3-man with deep range on his jumper, the ball-handling skills of a guard and that effortless explosion in the paint that only the most gifted athletes possess.
Pope said he initially expected some schools to temper their recruitment after his surgery. One that didn't was SDSU. Assistant coach Justin Hutson, who had been recruiting Pope at UNLV before rejoining the Aztecs' staff in April, flew to Sacramento a few days later to re-assert their interest.
"I trusted the (SDSU) coaches." Pope said. "It's just a different feeling there, rather than a place where it's just basketball. Say a player gets injured. A school like San Diego State doesn't just drop the ball and recruit another player. They try to get their family member back in the game."
Added Dodson: "They always made him a priority, and they did that from the beginning. Kansas, Gonzaga, UCLA did a good job recruiting him. But San Diego State did a better job recruiting him. After his injury, they recruited him even harder, and that was important to him. He's a really loyal kid."

Throng at Hearing On Assessment Plan For Parking Fields Five Zones Established; Based on Nearness to Plots; Protests piled There was a large turnout at the bearing on plans for levying the lassessment to cover the $$93,300 cost of developing the system of municipal parkmg fields conducted by. the Village Board . Monday night. After hearing numerous spe'akers, Mayor Robert* ^.Dbxs announced the Board would take the matter under advisement before taking final action. At the outset it was explained that at a hearing held In October, 1948, it waa voted to split the cost, 75 percent being levied against .the benefitted' area and 25 percent on the Village at large, and nothing aald at the hearing would have any affect on tola plan. Mve Assessment Areas The assessment area* were in-dicated on a map shown at the hearing. Five zones have been established 'based on. the neameas of property to the fields! The first zone, indicated' .by: green* includes property directly accessible to the fields, where the assessment will be based on 100 per cent of the pwop-enty value, or $17.50 for each $ToO; the second zone, red, 400 feet from ah exit or entrance, 50 per cent. $8.76 par hundred; the third zone, 800 feet, 30 percent, $6.25 per hun-dred; the:fourth zone, brown, 1^200 feet, 15 percent; $2.62 per hundred, and the fifth, white, 5 per cent, 87 cents per hundred. Henry P. ; Staples,/appearing for the trustees ot the Long Island Rail Road, protested the assessment jqyi'ed Jtgalnst the/ cpmpany, saying he did i not ' beMeve . the railroad would. be b?nef*t*ea by the. fields; that it was right of way property and' not subject to assessments -aAd he pleaded the .company was in bankruptcy an4 \pould not pay Ms baxes let sJcne assessments. 2 Donors *o Eacelve Credit "dMo J.

Medium Quilted Toiletry Kit 7 7
Great Toiletry Travel Bag This has many pockets, is a good size, and will be great to put all my toiletries in when I travel. March 24, 2015
Great Find I love this toiletry kit! It holds a lot. I can't believe what all I packed in it on a recent trip. I wish I would have had it sooner. Will never leave home without it when traveling. I have it in blue, very nice!! October 1, 2013
I had wanted to order this toiletry kit for some time and recently did. But I am going to have to return it because I am very disappointed in the fact that It does not have a handle on it - just a small one further in the back which is used to hang on possibly the back of a door.or to latch onto a piece of luggage. Long story short, I want something that size that is hand held while walking or to take on the plane as a carry-on.. so disappointed! July 8, 2014
Great for travel Great organizer for short or long term travels. Holds all my toiletries and makeup and all is easily accessible and easy to see. September 12, 2014
Disappointed I was hoping for a larger bag. It does not allow for full size bottles. If you use full size bottles you have to lay them on their side. I wanted it to go in my luggage to hold the liquids too large for the carry on. I still had to pack some bottles in a different case. July 2, 2014
what a great find This is by far the BEST toiletry kit ever! It is roomy and sturdy and fits well inside the suitcase. There is more than enough room for cosmetics, lotions, toothbrush, toothpaste and whatever else you might need. You won't regret making this purchase! February 9, 2014
Easy on the hands! This hanging toiletry kit is large and folds up nicely! And it is great for slightly arthritic hands which have difficulty grasping and opening typical clamp closures. The hanging hook is perfect! March 14, 2014

VIN Follow Up
I really enjoy Super Chevy magazine and reading your Techin' in with Fletch column. I recently read your response to a VIN question and have a follow up question.
I've attached a picture of the VIN from my 1956 Bel Air. It only has nine characters, but also has a stamp "C" on it. I believe the "B" is for Baltimore. Did they put the "C" on for extra identification? Can you shed any light on this VIN, which has one less numerical character, but yet one extra letter? For what it's worth, I bought the car on eBay in 2008, and it came from the Philadelphia area. Thank you for any help you can provide.
Denny Jones

That is actually a 10 digit VIN, with the "C" acting as the first character, so it reads C56B052506. Apparently the person running the stamp machine was having a bad day, lol. If it were an 11 digit number, it would therefore have to start with a "V," which in turn denotes that it was a V8 car. Your VIN, with no "V" and at 10 digits, dictates that it was a six-cylinder car. The "C" speaks to the model series of the car, which in your case decodes as a 2400. The next two digits are obvious, 56 indicating 1956. The next letter is the assembly plant code, and you are correct, the "B" stands for Baltimore, Maryland. The last sequence of numbers is the serial number of the car. In 1956, each assembly plant started with 1001.

I have a 1971 SS Chevelle that I've owned since I was 17. I am 54 and in the process of getting it restored, as it has been sitting in a barn for 34 years. Originally it had a stock 454 engine, but it had been removed and replaced with a 402. I want to go with a new GM crate engine and I'm looking at the ZZ 502/502 hp or the ZZ 572/620 hp. The car has a four-speed M22 transmission from the factory. Can you give me advice on which direction I should go with between these two engines?

That's pretty awesome that you never sold it over such a long period of time. I bet you've had many, many offers. I just hope the years didn't take too much of a toll on the old girl. As for the motor transplant, clearly, this is a question of personal preference if you don't have some specific goal in mind that I'm not aware of. There is not a wrong choice or a bad answer involved; both engines are bad-ass! Here is a link to each from the Summit website Summit Racing - Chevrolet Performance ZZ502 C.I.D. 502 HP Engine Assemblies and Summit Racing - Chevrolet Performance ZZ572 C.I.D. 620 HP Engine Assemblies
If I can read into your situation a little bit, I'm going to guess that this just going to be a fun, street-type cruiser that you simply want to sound and perform well. It's not like it's an all-out racecar that needs every hundredth of a second we can find. So with that said, I would recommend the 502. It's got plenty of snot for what you're doing, and it comes in almost $4k cheaper than the 572, which is huge difference in my book. And as this writing, Summit is currently offering free shipping (though that could change by our publication date). All in all, I'm more than confident that you'll be totally content with the 502 package.

Entering the season Mississippi State head coach John Cohen was quick to tell anyone who would listen that the pitching staff was the strength of the program, but not even Cohen could have forseen Chris Stratton being as good as he was last Friday.
The Bulldog right-hander turned in a career-best 17 strikeouts against the No. 10 LSU Tigers. His efforts were good enough to earn him the honor of being tabbed the Louisville Slugger National Player of the Week as well as Southeastern Conference Pitcher of the Week.
The Tupelo native held the Tigers to just one run on four hits all after allowing a leadoff walk in the first inning. He struck out the starting nine for LSU and a pair of Tigers struckout each time they faced Stratton.
Stratton was so dominate he had three inning where he struck out the side and had a stretch of 16-consecutive putouts, including 11 strikeouts.
"What a great way to start your conference year," Cohen said. "It was one of the greatest college pitching performances I've ever seen. To walk the first batter of the game and then come back to pitch virtually a flawless game from that point on shows Chris' maturity and growth as a pitcher."
The 17 strikeouts by Stratton ranks as the most in the SEC this season and the most by a Bulldog pitcher since B.J. Wallace rang up 19 punchouts against Nicholls State in the 1992 NCAA Mideast Regional at Dudy Noble Field.
Stratton, leads SEC pitchers with 44 strikeouts and the MSU staff with 29.2 innings pitched.
Mississippi State hosts Alabama A&M Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. before taking on fourth-ranked Arkansas in a three-game weekend series this weekend. The times are 6:30 p.m. Friday, 2 p.m. Saturday and noon Sunday at Dudy Noble Field.

Thanks for the heads-up; I'm going to tape the morning rebroadcast to watch it. I was lucky enough to listen to Dean Kamen (also known to me as "Steve's friend Dean Kamen"... let's just say he was *very* happy to finally meat Dean :-) at NI Week 2006, and it was a wonderful talk (well polished, but also with great content). It will be interesting to see what happens in Colbert.

I was hoping to get to meet and shake his hand at FLL this past year, but once I got there I knew that would never happen... just too many people and his schedule is fairly complicated...

Retro toys bring back memories, bring in cash
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Christmas is going old school this year: retro toys are hot this holiday season.
At Auntie Em's Miniatures/Smilin' Jack's Pedal Cars in Glendale, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, GI Joes and Toy Story figures, like Buzz Lightyear, are selling well. Store owner Letitia Ballengee said toys from the 1950s and '60s are selling too because people want to buy back their childhood.
"We sell mostly cars and trucks," she said. "Tonka sells real good because every little boy had a Tonka."
Ballengee's place is wall-to-wall toys: Star Wars, Star Trek, Hot Wheels. She said most of her customers are men.
"We had a woman come in one time looking for a pedal car for her husband and give it to him for Christmas and tell him to shut up," she said. "She was tired of him telling her about the milkman that ran over his pedal car."
Ballengee said some customers have been looking for a certain toy for years. They walk in and there it is on her shelves. That's a good feeling, she said.
