IS OUR language in jeopardy? It's a rare day that passes without a jeremiad from some eminent figure warning that digital messaging is leading to the demise of "proper English".
But those who focus on the shortcomings of texts or tweets overlook their advantages. Digital technologies have enabled a massive increase in writing, much of it for public consumption – which, lest we forget, used to be the domain of professionals, from medieval scribes to Victorian novelists to science journalists.
This democratisation of writing has stimulated rapid evolution of the English language. Many more recent linguistic innovations are deceptively complex: even smilies and acronyms like "LOL" have hidden depths (see (see "OMG – it's the textual revolution for language"). Far from wallowing in degenerate txtspk, we may be living in the most literate age in history ;)

Why are people so whiney? This game looks amazing.
Why is it that Rhino and/or Scorpion always make an appearance in these games but never in the actual film? :-S
music sucks! And why do his webs only go straight up instead of attaching to buildings in front of him.
Well if they were to appear in the movie messed up like they are in this game I could do without.
@Norrie91 Good point...I guess they're the spice in games. I don't feel too bad about not having them in movies.
@antoineflemming ikr ikr ikr ikr xinf
@antoineflemming Homage to the 1967 Spider-Man cartoon. That's why.
@NeroHaseo a game that looks this real need not homage to a comic from the 60s. therefore the laws of physics should still apply no?

Building on this momentum, we set a new emissions target in 2011 calling for a further 15 percent reduction in net emissions (against a 2010 baseline) per full-time equivalent by the end of 2015. Significant progress has been made toward the new target; as firms have achieved a 10 percent net emissions reduction per full-time equivalent and a 11 percent reduction in gross emissions per full-time equivalent in 2013.
KPMG firms have also increased energy efficiency, reducing electricity usage by three percent total kilowatt hour (kWh) consumption per square meter in facilities worldwide since 2010. Reliance on renewable sources also increased, which now accounts for approximately 27 percent of global electricity consumption in 2013. KPMG people continually work to better manage office energy consumption and business travel and to implement creative solutions to reduce their impact on the environment.
Below is a summary of KPMG firms' 2010-2013 Global Carbon Results.
Emissions Summary
(in metric tonnes of CO2e)
Currently, 42 KPMG member firms participate in the Global Green Initiative, which represents 85 percent of the global network's FTE headcount. We applied proxy data to estimate emissions for the remaining 14 percent to estimate combined emissions across all KPMG member firms. View more information on our methodology.
Environmental sustainability statistics cited above are based on aggregated results of a group of KPMG firms representing 85 percent of full-time equivalent KPMG people globally, which are used to estimate total emissions from all KPMG firms.
As a global service based organization, managing our environmental impacts begins with focusing on the key sources of our emissions and the greatest opportunities for reduction. In office spaces, KPMG firms/professionals continually strive to be more efficient in consumption of electricity by occupying green buildings and investing in alternative energy sources such as solar panels. Further reductions are also achieved through investments in green office equipment and IT technology. Utilizing video conferencing capabilities for internal meetings in place of air travel also seeks to reduce emissions related to travel. Incentives for employees to use public transit and energy efficient vehicles are also available.
Environmental management efforts are not limited to reducing carbon emissions. Additional opportunities to promote environmental sustainability are also sought, including reduction of paper and water consumption by implementing solutions such as pull-printing technology, promoting periods without printing and share case studies on effective water management. IT suppliers have also been engaged to help manage e-waste, and KPMG firms have instituted rigorous recycling programs in offices across the globe.
KPMG Firms have their own initiatives and programmes which they follow so to reduce KPMG's environmental impact and improve its Carbon footprint.
With Living Green, KPMG US is examining its environmental practices and ramping up efforts to improve them. It is a national effort that is most effective because it has captured the imaginations of people in the firm's collective backyard - its local offices.

Sarkisian now one of the Pac-12's old men on the block
Only Jeff Tedford and Mike Riley have more tenure in the conference than the UW coach
SEATTLE - A young man's game, indeed.
It took only a few weeks for the University of Washington's Steve Sarkisian, at the tender age of 37, to become one of the old men of the Pacific-12 Conference. Three coaching changes in the past few days, and four dating back to the Oct. 10 firing of Arizona's Mike Stoops, have made Sarkisian one of the longest-tenured coaches in the conference.
Not including Utah's Kyle Wittingham, who has just one year in the recently-expanded conference, only two other current head coaches have had longer runs in the Pac-12 than Sarkisian's three-year stint at UW: Cal's Jeff Tedford and Oregon State's Mike Riley.
"The state of college football, and where we're at, you look around," said Sarkisian, who was hired three months before Oregon officially named Chip Kelly head coach in March 2009. "Look at myself, you look at Chip, you look at (USC second-year coach) Lane (Kiffin), you look at (and Stanford first-year coach) David Shaw, we haven't been head coaches very long, never mind in this league very long."
This week's firings of Arizona State's Dennis Erickson, UCLA's Rick Neuheisel and Washington State's Paul Wulff — three coaches with well-documented ties to the state of Washington — have left Pac-12 football in a state of flux. Even mainstays Tedford and Riley appear to be on thin ice as they wrap up their 10th and 11th seasons, respectively.
Sarkisian, who has a 19-18 record and two bowl invitations on his three-year resume at UW, is one of the few Pac-12 coaches on stable ground.
"It speaks to: this is a tough business," he said during a Wednesday conference call. "Not only do I feel for the coaches, but I feel for the families, the assistant coaches' families. When these firings take place, we always assume it's just one guy: the head coach. But these firings impact quite a few people, upwards of 100 people quite honestly. So I'm always empathetic of that, because I know how hard everyone's working at it.
"Unfortunately, there are winners and losers, and you're trying to find your way. You hope to win more than you lose. But that's just the nature of our business right now. College football has become a business."
The firing that hits closest to home happened across the state, where WSU's Wulff was relieved of his duties three days after suffering his third consecutive Apple Cup loss to Sarkisian's Huskies. Sarkisian said the former Cougars coach did a solid job building the WSU program up during his four-year tenure there.
"Under Paul's direction, that program got better," Sarkisian said during a noon conference call Wednesday. "I thought they improved, and maybe the record didn't always indicate that. ... Whoever's going to get that job is going to inherit a better program than Paul inherited four years ago."
The Cougars had yet to officially name a replacement as of Wednesday afternoon — reports later came out that former Texas Tech head man Mike Leach had been offered the job — but Sarkisian knew that whoever replaced Wulff would be able to sustain the Apple Cup rivalry.
"It's a tremendous rivalry, and we love being part of it," Sarkisian said. "Whomever comes in, I'm assuming they're going to embrace it too; it's not hard to. It's not just about one week, it's about 365 days a year. There's a natural rivalry in place, and I would assume whoever gets that job is going to embrace the rivalry the way it needs to be embraced."
Spoken like a true veteran.
It's only been three years, but already Sarkisian is one of the Pac-12's old men on the block. And this week, he's been reminded of just how tenuous a coaching job can be.
"You understand the business that you're in," he said. "You need to win, but you need to win the right way and do thing the right way. I would've never thought that this would be the case of our conference right now."
One day after tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins was spotted working out on the Hec Edmundson basketball court while receiving tips from UW men's basketball coach Lorenzo Romar, Sarkisian said he will not discuss the possibility of the 6-foot-7 freshman playing both sports until after the football team's bowl game later this month. Seferian-Jenkins was a football and basketball star at Gig Harbor High School. ... Sarkisian has not yet looked into the draft projections involving junior running back Chris Polk, who has one year of eligibility remaining but could decide to apply for the April NFL draft. Sarkisian said he and Polk would sit down and talk about the pros and cons of leaving school early after the Huskies' season is over.

ZANZIBAR Heroes stun favourites Rwanda's Amavubi with a 2-1 victory in Group C match of the on-going CECAFA Senior Challenge played at the muddy Nelson Mandela (Namboole) Stadium on Thursday.
The heavy down pour in Kampala had made the pitch slippery making it hard for the players to control the ball but still, CECAFA felt it was wise to continue with Group C matches.
It was a great start for Amavubi when striker Jean Baptiste Mugiraneza made a blistering run towards the goal but Heroes keeper Mwadini Ally Mwadini rushed out to a rescue. The goalkeeper was knocked in the process and had to be treated for some few seconds.
Zanzibar Heroes reacted a minute later when midfielder Seleman Kassim 'Selembe' raced to a through ball from defender Aggrey Morris but Amavubi keeper Jean Claude Ndoli was quick to block. Khamis Mcha Khamis scored the opener for Zanzibar Heroes in the 9th minute, when he precisely managed to beat the keeper.
The youthful striker kept his good footing to race into an otherwise, harmless long ball and had to somewhat thank bad pitch condition because the ball stuck in a patch of water and fooled the judgment of on rushing keeper. It was a terrible error by experienced goalkeeper, who surely had to clear the ball a bit quickly.
Zanzibar nearly scored the second two minutes later when keeper spilled a shot from Nassor Masoud 'Cholo' but there was no other Isles player hanging about. Heroes kept pressing forward and missed several other scoring chances.
Rwanda had a penalty appeal turned down by Ugandan referee Ally Kalyango in the 32nd minute, when midfielder Haruna Niyonzima's header came off Cholo's hand. Mwadini was forced to a full stretch in the 37th minute to parry off 30 metres shot from one of Rwanda's player.
Both sides were avoiding the middle part of the pitch which was completely unplayable and was full of muddy water. Mcha doubled the score after an hour mark with an assured finish this time. The man from Azam FC swiftly reacted to a mistake by defenders to beat the keeper with a low shot. Substitute Daddy Birori's flying header ten minutes before the final whistle gave Rwanda a lifeline.
He connected home Niyonzima's well measured cross. Jean Claude Iranzi's good strike narrowly missed the target with just two minutes to go. In an early kick off match of the group, Malawi Flames reignited their hopes for a quarter-final berth after beating Eritrea's Sea Boys 3-2 in a closely fought match.
Eritrea was made to sweat blood rallying from three goals down to stretch the game to a nerve wrecking finish. Chiukuepo Msowoya was the hero for the Kinnar Phiri coached Flames grabbing a brace in the 3rd and 67th minutes while Mhone added another. Eritrea came after the breather a re-energized lot showing their thirst for goal and even after conceding heavily, they kept their dreams alive with endless waves of attacks.

- person in the U.S. has this name View Joseph Matcham on Whitepages
Meaning & Origins
English form of the biblical Hebrew name Yosef, meaning '(God) shall add (another son)'. This was borne by the favourite son of Jacob, whose brothers became jealous of him and sold him into slavery (Genesis 37). He was taken to Egypt, where he rose to become chief steward to Pharaoh, and was eventually reconciled to his brothers when they came to buy corn during a seven-year famine (Genesis 43–7). In the New Testament Joseph is the name of the husband of the Virgin Mary. It is also borne by a rich Jew, Joseph of Arimathea (Matthew 27:57; Mark 15:43; Luke 23:50; John 19:38), who took Jesus down from the Cross, wrapped him in a shroud, and buried him in a rock tomb. According to medieval legend, Joseph of Arimathea brought the Holy Grail to Britain. The name was uncommon in Britain in the Middle Ages but was revived in the mid 16th century and had become popular by the 1630s, remaining so ever since.

7530 West I-20, Exit 397
Weatherford, TX 76088
This project began as a memorial for my deceased parents in 2008. I wanted
to do something to honor them. I asked my husband to build one gazebo in their honor. To my surprise he wanted to build
three gazebos to honor them. I decided to name it the "Praise Pavilion"
because that's what it became when I visited it to remember my parents and praise God. People began asking if it was a church,
I would say "NO". I refused to call it a church because I didn't feel worthy to be in charge of a church.
As time went on and as I prayed about what I wanted to do with the rest of the property, I finally began to understand that God wanted me to build a church on this property. After five years of prayer I decided to do that. I wanted to attract people to this property who would not normally want to attend church, so I called the church "Cutting Capital Fellowship". Parker County is known for being the "Cutting Capital" of the world and that name seemed to fit.
My husband, Glenn and I plan to have the service on Sunday afternoon at 1:00pm and encourage families to bring basket lunches; and to eat at the pavilion during the service. We will have outside speakers for the folks to hear the teaching and listen to the music. The service will last till about 3:00 or maybe 4:00pm.
Our Mission
mission is to re-unite families on Sunday afternoon for spiritual guidance, teaching God's word, picnics and good music.
We don't want anyone to feel they can't be a part of our praise and worship. They may come as they are. Also, we will
have a food pantry for families needing assistance with food.
Statement of Faith
Our life has been based on our Christian beliefs. We have come to understand that our faith has been tested on numerous occasions and that because we believed in Jesus Christ as our Savior we have overcome every test the devil has put on us. We believe in Jesus Christ as the only way to heaven. We also believe that Christ died for our sins and that we live under grace because of Christ suffering and death on the cross.
The Order of our Service
Our service will begin at 1:00PM on Sunday afternoon. We will begin the service with music and prayer to greet our families and guests. We will then ask the children to come forward to have a bible story told to them by Pastor Glenn. Then the teaching will begin and continue for about 45 minutes. At that time Pastors Glenn and Barbara will have invited guest to participate in "HBO" (Hear God speak, Believe without doubt, Obey without hesitation) during this time we will have a table discussion about miracles that have occurred in our lives and many other topics from the scripture. This will last approximately 45 minutes to an hour. Then we will go directly into praise and worship music until 4:30 to 5:00PM ending with prayer. During this time of praise and worship families are invited to bring basket lunches to eat on the grounds. We will have speakers outside our church for them to enjoy the teaching and music from inside.

Amen, Bruddah! Amen!
When I was a Honda dealer I was always stunned by the guys who would drive 300 miles to save $200 on a motorcycle. Didn't matter to them that the other dealer they were driving to was that much closer to the manufacturer's warehouse and as such his freight on the bike was much, much less... Or that the other dealer was located in a much larger metropolitan market that allowed him volume I couldn't compete with... Etc., etc., etc.
But what stunned me even more was when that same guy, who had gone all that way to save a handful of dollars, would come crying to my shop when he had a problem and expected me to drop everything and instantly work on his bike... And also expected that I put him ahead of all those customers who had purchased motorcycles from my shop.
Only thing is that I wouldn't... Wouldn't put them ahead of my own customers. Not in a heartbeat.
And ya' know, it's funny... All those guys who did the drive-and-buy, or fly-and-ride, would then bad-mouth my store left and right, all while never even bothering to take it back where they bought it and see if that guy was any better. Oh, no! They praised that dealer for the great deal they got.
But it didn't matter, because those guys that did buy from me praised my service everywhere they went, and bought from us again and again. In fact, over 70% of our business over the years was repeat customers (in both that Honda shop and our car dealerships along the way), and ya' know... Each time they bought a vehicle they got a better and better deal each time.
In other words, folks... Remember the door swings both ways. If you have a good local dealer, support him, and he'll support you. Don't support him and one day he won't be there.
To this day people still tell me they wish I was still the Honda dealer here, and despise the guy who is now. He has a dirty, dingy, dark store with a lousy service and parts department. And I go to the Kawasaki/Yamaha dealer...

With the recession, it looks as if ABC is keeping it all about family. Nothing wrong with that, but if everyone is doing it, how does one stand out from the pack?

|Fast Break: Paul Pierce's ugly Celtics reunion
|10.15.13 at 10:19 pm ET
Paul Pierce's first game against his former team had to be this ugly. The Nets and Celtics combined for 95 missed field goals and 43 turnovers in a brutal 82-80 Brooklyn victory, and that doesn't even do it justice.
The Celtics held Pierce to just four points on six shots in 27 minutes, but Brooklyn bigs Brook Lopez and Andray Blatche, who started in place of a reluctantly resting Kevin Garnett, combined for 34 points in a winning effort.
Meanwhile, five Celtics scored in double figures — Courtney Lee (14 points), Kris Humphries (12), Jeff Green (12), Kelly Olynyk (10) and Jordan Crawford (10) — as the C's showed some encouraging signs despite dropping to 1-4 in their first preseason without Pierce since 1998.
|Celtics at Nets: Paul Pierce in, Kevin Garnett out
|at 10:18 am ET
Paul Pierce is expected to play when his new team hosts his former team in the preseason on Tuesday night, but Kevin Garnett won't be in the Nets lineup against the Celtics, and he's none too pleased about it.
'It wasn't my decision, so that's where I'm going to leave that," Garnett, who already voiced his displeasure in coach Jason Kidd's plan to rest him on back-to-backs, told the New York media after Monday's win in Philadelphia. 'I'm trying to be as positive as I can. It's not up to me. I'm being positive and go with the plan that was laid out for me and being positive with that. So I'm trusting Jason and the plan he has for myself. … I just feel like every day you have a chance to better your craft and be part of the group, I'd like to be a part of that.'
Pierce has already expressed to reporters that he will not be in the Brooklyn lineup when the Nets come to Boston for the final game of the Celtics preseason on Oct. 23. The same is expected to be true for Garnett.
Meanwhile, Jeff Green pulled a KG "I don't have Ray Allen's number anymore" after Monday's Celtics practice. 'I haven't spoke to none of them since they got traded," he said. "Probably [Jason Terry] is the last person I talked to out of them. It just got to the point where it was time to move on for me. They're gone. I can't worry about how they feel or how I feel. The trade happened. When I see them, brief words and then I'll get ready to play.'
Now, if only Green can back up that statement the way Garnett did in 2011-12. He's currently shooting a team-worst 27.5 percent from the field on a team-high 10.0 field goal attempts per game and averaging fewer points in more minutes than Phil Pressey. Perhaps that's what Brandon Bass was trying to say here: 'We don't have our OG's anymore, so the young G's got to step up and be old G's now and go out and play. It's sunk in."
|The complicated Gerald Wallace-Tom Brady-David Ortiz man love triangle
|10.14.13 at 1:01 pm ET
New Celtics forward Gerald Wallace's introduction to the Boston media last month came complete with an awkward explanation of his man crushes on Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and Red Sox slugger David Ortiz.
"I'm actually happy to be here in Boston. I've always loved the city of Boston when I came. And, besides, I'm a Red Sox and Patriots fan, so I'm closer to my teams. … I'm from Alabama. We don't have a professional team there. I like Big Papi. I've always followed Big Papi. I enjoyed watching him in those days. That's how I became a Red Sox fan. And I'm just fascinated with Brady. I like watching Brady play. I'm a big, big Brady fan since he got started in the league. I've been following him since Day 1. Him and Coach Belichick. Those are my favorite teams. Actually, at my house I have a split Patriots and Red Sox room. Basically shoes, material things. I have a couple Brady jerseys, a couple pictures of Brady, Belichick, the championship teams, a couple of the Super Bowl pictures, a lot of the Red Sox World Series things, I have an autographed bat from Ortiz, just some memorabilia."
OK, then. That went from, "Oh, he's just saying that to endear himself to Boston sports fans," to, "Holy crap, this guy has a room dedicated to Tom Brady and David Ortiz in his house," real fast. For those of you wondering at home, Wallace is 31 years old. And a professional basketball player. I don't want to say Sunday should have been the best day of Gerald's life, but Sunday should have definitely been the best day of Gerald's life.
Especially considering Wallace attended the Patriots-Saints game and met Brady before his man crush completed one of his most improbable comebacks in a career filled with improbable comebacks. Here's picture proof.
|Rajon Rondo, a Chinese reporter and a shoe
|10.11.13 at 4:39 pm ET
A Chinese reporter interviewed Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo while he sat in a chair with his new Rondo 1 shoe from Anta on his lap. My favorite part is when some dude stops her from asking any more questions about his knee. Well, that and all of Rondo's humor getting lost in translation. Here are some other highlights. Enjoy.
Let us know the latest update on your knee injury.
"I'm right on schedule. I will return this year, and I'm taking one day, one week at a time."
How long do you anticipate until you're back on the court?
"Well, I'm on the court now. As far as playing, I don't know. I don't really want to put a timetable on it, because it's something that I can be going great for one week and then I can have a setback with this type of injury the next, so I'm just going to take it one week at a time."
Fans still have the pictures in their mind of Paul [Pierce] and Kevin [Garnett] wearing Celtics jerseys, and now you're the leader of the team. What is the pressure like on your shoulders?
"The pressure gets bigger each year, and if you know me, then you know I love pressure, so I don't think about it too much. I'm just focused on getting my knee back healthy and getting back on the court as fast as possible."
What do you think are the main characteristics a team leader needs to have?
"He has to be humble. He has to be able to listen. A leader doesn't always have to be the one that talks. You have to lead by example, and just always have faith and believe in one another."
What do you hope to see from the Celtics this season?
"I hope to see us grow as a team. I hope to see us win a lot of games, and as long as we're out there competing and give it all we have each game, then I think we'll do that."
Danny Ainge always pledged he'd pull the trigger when Red Auerbach never could — trading a couple Boston legends in the twilight of their careers — and now Auerbach's daughter is questioning the current Celtics president's pride after the deal that sent Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett to Brooklyn.
"Given [Red Auberbach's] track record and philosophy of life, not in his lifetime would that have happened," Randy Auerbach told Yahoo Sports. "He really took a lot of pride in players finishing their careers with the Celtics. That was something very important to him.
"If it was for Chris Paul, maybe. We got nothing [for Pierce and Garnett]. You don't trade laterally, and we didn't even get laterally. But I hope it works. Nothing would give me more pleasure than to be wrong."
The way Ainge tells the story, Red shared a couple trade scenarios he ultimately rejected with Ainge, Larry Bird and Kevin McHale during a Christmas party in the early 1990s: 1) Bird to the Pacers for Chuck Person, Herb Williams and Steve Stipanovich, and 2) McHale to the Mavericks for Detlef Schrempf and Sam Perkins. Ainge claims he urged Auerbach to make the trades, but Bird denies it went down like that.
|Stat man: The Phil Pressey factor
|10.10.13 at 12:25 pm ET
Forget about Chris Babb, the Celtics' training camp invitee whose plus-20 rating in eight fourth-quarter minutes stole the show against the Knicks, because based on the current projected salary structure the C's can't sign him. As a result, the most impressive player on the roster Wednesday night was backup point guard Phil Pressey.
The son of former Celtics assistant coach Paul Pressey didn't even get on the Garden floor in Game 1 of the preseason, but sadly a death in Jordan Crawford's family opened the door for the Missouri product to get minutes behind Avery Bradley. And Pressey basically submitted a flawless performance in his first NBA appearance.
The former Waltham star's straight stat line — 13 points on five shots, seven assists against zero turnovers, three rebounds and two steals in 28:05 — is impressive in its own right, and it gets better the deeper you dive into it.
|Vitor Faverani update: Still the best
|at 10:06 am ET
When Vitor Faverani introduced himself to Boston, we discovered that the only true center on the Celtics roster is, simply, the best — a quote machine who declared the C's "the best team in NBA" and stated his desire "to stay here forever." See? The best. And after two preseason games, there's no reason to believe he's not still the best.
The 7-foot Brazilian's English isn't perfect, but he gets his point across. Faverani breaks basketball down to four things: 1) physical plays, 2) passes, 3) dunks and 4) pick-and-roll. As long as Celtics coach Brad Stevens keeps giving him minutes, Faverani says, he'll provide all four. And, really, what else do you want from a backup center?
"When coach Stevens gives me my minutes, I try to do my best," Faverani said following Monday's loss to the Raptors. "That's all. I'm happy, and I try to do my best." C'mon, now, isn't he the best? I think he's the best.
On Wednesday, Stevens fed Faverani more minutes, and he happily did his best. In 31 minutes in a Celtics uniform, he's produced 13 points (6-12 FG), nine rebounds, two blocks, two steals and a plus-7 rating. He's played physical, dunked aplenty and set a mean pick for two straight games. Other than a few nice outlet passes to Phil Pressey during that impressive fourth-quarter comeback against the Knicks, the only thing we haven't really seen from him is the passing. But I'm sure that will come, too, because Vitor is the best.

Davis Richardson
Starkville High School senior Davis Richardson is recognized as a commended student in the 2011 National Merit Scholarship Program.
Richardson has earned this recognition by placing in the top 34,000 of over 1.5 million students who entered the 2011 National Merit Program by taking the PSAT.
"It feels really good," Richardson said of his accomplishment. "I didn't really know what I was getting myself into when I took the PSAT."
Richardson, the son of Woody and Lynne Richardson, is not unfamiliar with doing well in school. He is consistently on the all-A honor roll and scored a 33 on the ACT. He is very involved in extra curricular activities such as thespian club, choir, Operation smile, National Honor Society and Interact Club. He is hoping his National Merit Commended status will make a great addition to his college applications.
"A lot of college applications have a place for National Merit status, and now I can check that and hopefully it will make it more desirable to colleges," Richardson explained. "I'm applying to six different school, but plan to take a year off to participate in the Rotary Club exchange student program to travel to Italy."
Ranked at the top of Richardson's top college choices are Emory, Wake Forest and Washington University in St. Louis, but is looking forward to traveling aboard to study history, art and language.
Richardson credits his parents with influencing him to take school seriously.
"They didn't push me to where it was obnoxious, but they let me know what was expected of me academically," Richardson admits.
In school, Richardson names English teacher Sally Warren with being a mentor to him.
"She's awesome, and I could also talk with her about anything on my mind," he said.
As for graduating and traveling to Italy, Richardson said he is most looking forward to "being in a completely different setting."
Jeremy Brown
West Oktibbeha County High School senior Jeremy Brown is being recognized for scoring the highest score in his school's history on the U.S. history test.
Brown scored a 488 out of a possible 500, missing only two questions, on the history exam.
"He's a great student and a great person," said Barbara Bracey, WOCHS history teacher. "He's a model student and helpful in and out of the classroom. He's very smart, and he's just a great kid."
The OCSD Supt. James Covington recognized Brown with a $125 check for his accomplishment.
Brown is a member of his school football team, a member of 4-H and is dually enrolled at East Mississippi Community College. He plans to attend Mississippi State University next fall.
Brown explained that his high school on the history test was due to him studying hard, paying attention in class and "praying before the test," he laughed. He added that history is his favorite subject.
Brown also credits his mother for being a supportive parent.
"She's a hard worker," Brown said of his mother. "Even as a parent, she is going back to college, and that has taught me to set goals and have standards for myself."
Jeremy is the son of Debora and James Brown.

Vostu's hidden object game, World Mysteries, tops this week's list of emerging Facebook games with Bingo Bash and Miscrits of Volcano Island rounding out the top three.
Incorporating real-time multiplayer interactions in social games makes it three times more likely a player will send invitations to friends who aren't already playing the game, according to Vostu.
Vostu, the fourth largest gaming company in the world, is continuing to push mobile products.
Initially a Facebook and Orkut developer, Vostu soft-launched into the mobile market last month with two games, Milk'n Cookies and Meow! Prior to those it launched Elemental for Android in October.
Latin American social gaming company Vostu is taking to the airwaves with new in-game radio stations for its two most popular social games, MiniFazenda and MegaCity. The service — the first of its kind in social games — is now available for players on Facebook and Orkut.

One of the most important rules on the Upper East Side, darlings, is keep your friends close and your frenemies closer. And it looks like Kim Kardashian is heeding to the advice.
KK was spotted catching up with former pal Paris Hilton at Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci's 40th birthday Saturday night in (where else?) Ibiza. Kim posted a smiley pic of the two of them with their arms wrapped around each other, captioning it, "Reminiscing about the 1st time we went to Ibiza in 2006! @parishilton it was so good to see you & catch up!! Loves it lol." OMGeez… could that be any more forced?
Paris regrammed the pic, saying, "So much fun with @KimKardashian this weekend at @AmnesiaIbiza. The first time we ever came to this magical island was together. Such an amazing trip! Great catching up with you too beautiful"
The girls, who used to be besties when Kim was Paris' minion, parted ways once K's fame surpassed P's. Although now, it seems like they've rekindled their friendship… but do you think it's real? The cameras never lie, after all–it's the ones in front of it that do. XOXO
PS- leave your wittiest captions for this pic in a comment below. I'd love more even more laughs this morning.

Nairobi — Cases of anxiety and depression, the two leading mental illnesses, are on the rise, with more women than men affected due to difficult economic times, gender roles and violence.
Findings of a study done at Kenyatta National Hospital by African Mental Health Foundation and which are awaiting publication, show that 42 per cent of adults and 41 per cent of children who went to the hospital were diagnosed with depression.
Prof David Ndetei, a lecturer at the University of Nairobi, says depression was found to be more prevalent in women than men. Reasons for this vary, but psychiatrists are pointing to three main factors: gender roles, gender discrimination, and hormonal or reproductive health factors.
Women experiencing infertility, sadness or anxiety after giving birth, especially when they are not supported by their male partners, and those steeped into poverty, have been found to be vulnerable to depression, according to the scientists.
Studies have shown that before a couple get children, the wife is under intense pressure from her partner and in-laws to give birth. She is suspected to be infertile when quite often the culprit is the man. Emotional, verbal, or physical abuse which they undergo, push them into depression.
In South Africa, of the 120 women who took part in a 2005 study titled Psychological Distress Among Women Suffering from Couple Infertility in South Africa: A Quantitative Assessment, 14.5 per cent said that their intimate partners had used physical violence against them.
About 24 per cent of the women who were recruited from the infertility clinic at Groote Schuur Hospital in Cape Town said the partners had used verbal and/or emotional abuse.
Another study in Zimbabwe involving 172 women found 65 per cent of them to possess anxiety traits.
The women interviewed complained of thinking too much, deep sadness, grief, fear, or the possession of an insoluble problem, as some of the causes of their anxiety. Further analysis indicates men are the leading source of these difficulties for women.
Prof Ndetei says cases of depression among women are likely to be high in African countries where living conditions are difficult and there are no mechanisms to respond to women who need psychiatric help.
"Many of the retrenchment programmes implemented by countries in sub-Saharan Africa in response to poor economic performance have affected those in lower cadres, which are predominantly occupied by women," said Prof Ruth Oniang'o, a gender activist who advocates women economic empowerment in the eastern Africa.
Women are said to be overburdened by many gender roles and social pressures that leave them stressed. Society has apportioned more roles to women than men, which doctors say tend to have a negative effect on the women.
The most affected are professional women who have to juggle work and family demands. They are constantly anxious to see things run smoothly both at the work place and at home.
The stress at the workplace, which might come in the form of sexual harassment, combined with the difficulties at the household level, combine to make life very stressful for a working woman, says Mr Peter Lubao, a consultant counsellor.
According to Depression in Kenyan Professional Women, a study by Dr Frank Njenga, 22 per cent of the 86 women who participated in the survey said they were depressed. Another 30 per cent said they were coping less well than they usually do.
In some cases, psychiatrists say gender discrimination and sexual violence and harassment at the workplace and in the household causes women to develop anxiety or depressive disorders. Women in this situation are more affected as they might lack the appropriate ways to respond to their situations.
Glass Ceiling: Women and Men in Southern Africa Media, 2009, a study conducted by Gender Links of South Africa, notes that sexual harassment is a serious concern in the media.
Says the study: "Media women across the region complained about being treated as sexual objects in media houses and men showed little appreciation and understanding of what is meant by sexual harassment."
Even with this prevailing environment, many public and private institutions are yet to put in place interventions to address the effects of gender-based violence such as anxiety and depression.
Only 28 per cent of media houses who took part in the Glass Ceiling study, for instance, said they had sexual harassment policies.
When it comes to hormones, studies are showing that women who are nearing or have reached menopausal stage are more likely to be depressed due to the fluctuations in the female hormones. These hormones are said to alter the brain chemistry leading to depressive tendencies.
Hormonal fluctuations during menstrual, puberty, and pregnancy produce different emotions and reactions in women, which result in depression. Single parents are also vulnerable to depression.
Interestingly, research has shown that use of contraceptives for more than 10 years may protect women from depression.
The only problem is a majority of the women is ignorant about these reproductive health issues and not much is being done to offer them comprehensive information on how to cope with these developments.
Reproductive health experts want African governments and other stakeholders to respond to these matters guided by the Strategic objective C.5: Increase resources and monitor follow-up for women's health, as captured in the Beijing Platform for Action.
They think addressing the serious gaps in legal and other structural issues around sexual and reproductive health that make women's vulnerability to anxiety and depression can turn around the current sorry state of affairs.
African governments need to put in place legislation on gender-based violence and other family laws. Data on gender-based violence is still lacking in many countries, making it difficult for appropriate interventions to be designed.
Gender advocates want information and education programmes initiated or enhanced, where they exist, to cushion women from anxiety and depression.
Reproductive health experts think women can reduce their vulnerability to anxiety and depression by understanding what they go through, seeking early treatment, and adopting different coping mechanisms.
They also want their male counterparts to support women, sharing some of the gender roles, and reducing sexual and physical violence against their partners or women they meet in social places.

President Obama signed a press freedom bill today that honoring the legacy of Daniel Pearl:
Mr Obama said the measure would send a strong message that Washington was paying attention to the way governments elsewhere in the world treat the media.
The law is named after US journalist Daniel Pearl, who was beheaded by militants in Pakistan in 2002.
He was working on a Wall Street Journal story about radical Islamist groups.
Mr Obama was joined for the signing ceremony by Pearl's widow, Mariane, the couple's seven-year-old son, Adam, and the journalist's parents.
He said the law—named the Daniel Pearl Freedom of the Press Act—would show countries that repressed freedom of speech that they could not operate against the media with impunity.
"The loss of Daniel Pearl was one of those moments that captured the world's imagination because it reminded us how valuable a free press is," Mr Obama said.
"This legislation, in a very modest way, puts us clearly on the side of journalistic freedom."
In the above report, Daniel's parents and wife are standing behind Obama. You can't see them in the video, but the photo accompanying the Jewish Journal story shows Ruth Pearl directly behind Obama, with Judea on her right and Marianne to his right.

New Approach to Lactose Intolerance
Do you think being lactose intolerant means giving up dairy foods? Think again! Milk, yogurt and cheese provide an excellent source of protein, calcium, vitamin D and other nutrients. Giving up dairy foods means losing out on these great health benefits. Your Hy-Vee dietitian wants you to know that lactose intolerant individuals can still enjoy the great taste and important nutrition of dairy foods. Today, Kimberly Proctor, RD LD, will feature lactose-friendly options in the dairy department.
Lactose Intolerance Explained:
Lactose is a natural sugar found in milk. In the digestive process, lactose gets broken down by an enzyme into two smaller parts, which are easily absorbed by the small intestine. Lactose intolerance occurs when a person lacks sufficient amounts of the enzyme needed to break down the lactose. The large lactose molecule is not absorbed, and travels intact to the large intestine. This produces the symptoms of intolerance such as gas, bloating, cramps and diarrhea.
Tips for Enjoying Dairy Foods:
Start Small.
Some individuals can tolerate lactose-containing foods in small amounts. Begin with a few sips, and work up gradually as tolerated.
Mix it up.
Enjoy your dairy products in combination with other solid foods. Try milk in soup, cereal, or in a smoothie.
Cheese, Please!
Cheeses such as Cheddar, Colby, Monterey Jack, mozzarella and Swiss are naturally lower in lactose.
Look for "lactose-free."
Dairy products such as milk, chocolate milk, cottage cheese and ice cream are available with the milk sugar already broken down. These are real dairy foods that look and taste like their traditional counterparts.
Get some culture.
Cultured dairy products like yogurt are often well-tolerated. Greek yogurt especially is naturally low in lactose. Try kefir, a probiotic smoothie beverage that is 99% lactose free.
Munch Mix (serves 1)
all you need:
1/3 cup red or green seedless grapes
½ oz. Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese cubes
1 heaping Tablespoon roasted almonds
All you do:
Combine grapes, cheese and almonds in a bowl or re-closeable bag.
Source: Cabot Cheese
Per serving: 118 calories; 8 g fat; 89 mg sodium; 7 g carbohydrate; 1 g dietary fiber; 5 g protein
Warm Cheese Dip (serves 4)
all you need:
2 tsp. cornstarch
½ cup reduced fat milk
8 oz. Hy-Vee shredded cheddar cheese
Pinch garlic powder
all you do:
In a small bowl, combine milk and cornstarch until cornstarch is dissolved. Heat in microwave until boiling and thickened, about 40 seconds. Whisk in cheese until blended. Microwave an additional 10 seconds to melt cheese completely. Add pinch of garlic powder. Serve with whole grain pretzels and raw or crisp-tender broccoli and cauliflower.

Mustang MonthlyHow To Tech Qa
1967 Ford Mustang Convertible & 1966 Ford Mustang GT Hardtop - Beyond The Basics
Stick Man I recently started reading your magazine after deciding to move from motorcycle refurbishing to Mustang restoration. In five short months, you have answered almost every question I had about restoration-but a few specific questions about transmissions remain.
I love your article titled "How To: Swap in a Manual Transmission" and placing a five-speed in your vintage Mustang (Apr. 2000, page 30). This will be useful when I complete my Mustang (to be purchased). Also, your "Tech Tips 2000!" article (May 2000, page 20) was interesting. My questions stem from these articles.
First, in Tech Tips 2000 you refer to using a transmission from a six-cylinder engine. Is this the entire transmission or just the gearing for first gear? Second, my current project is a '67 six-cylinder hardtop for my father. He has the money but is short on time and workplace. I was wondering if a five-speed would work well with the six-cylinder.Shaun StewartPerry, FL
The six-cylinder transmission referred to in the article is indeed a complete unit. Most parts vendors will charge the same amount for either six-cylinder-style transmission, so it's simply a matter of choice when purchasing.
As you can see, the '67-and-later transmissions are basically the same between six-cylinder and small-block V-8 units; therefore, any five-speed conversion for a small-block V-8 will also apply to the six-cylinder vehicles. Early Mustangs with the new synchro-style trans-missions are not the same and must include '67-and-later clutches, flywheels, and bellhousings in order to complete the swap.
Adherence, PleaseI have been a subscriber to Mustang Monthly for the past six years, even though I have not owned a Mustang for more than 25 years. My family owns five vintage Cougars, and the information in your magazine is extremely helpful in maintaining and restoring these cars.
I have a question that I do not recall was addressed in Mustang Monthly. How did Ford get paint to adhere to chrome grilles and stainless trim pieces? The chrome grilles on a '68 Cougar have the sides painted argent silver. I cannot believe that Ford took the time to scuff these sides before painting. Do you know of anything on the market that we could use to make the paint adhere to this chrome piece? Any help would be appreciated.Bill QuayLockport, NY
You are correct in that Ford did not scuff the parts before painting and that surface preparation is necessary in order for paint to adhere to a shiny surface. The factories use a chemical to etch the surface of the trim pieces before paint application. The system works well but is not perfect, as evidenced by paint peeling off the trim on late-model vehicles throughout the years.
I suggest you use a fine or gray color Scotch-Brite pad to scuff any items you need to paint. The pad can be purchased from your local hardware store. The idea is to simply break the shiny surface to create a "tooth" for the new paint to adhere to. Use a fine abrasive to prevent making deep scratches, which can be visible through the final coat of paint.
Make sure you wash each trim item with a solvent to remove any grease or road oils, then thoroughly wash each item in hot, soapy water to remove all traces of contamination. Scuffing alone will not remove oils, because they are deeply embedded into the surface and will promote paint peeling if not completely removed.
WobblyI am the proud owner of a '67 Mustang convertible with a 289 engine, an auto transmission, and power steering. I've had the car for two years. It experiences a left-to-right steering wheel vibration when driven between 25 and 30 mph and about 50 mph. The car has the factory steel wheels and wire wheel hubcaps.

Can't stay erect
| related questions
Originally Published: January 19, 1995 - Last Updated / Reviewed On: January 12, 2001
|Share this
Dear Alice:
It seems that I can't maintain an erection for more than a couple of minutes during intercourse. In fact, sometimes it doesn't seem to want to get up and play at all. The girlfriend is really starting to take this personally, but I know it's not her fault. Help! Are there any vitamins, diets, etc. that may help?
Signed, Here and Gone
Dear Here and Gone,
Erection problems can be mainly physical, mainly psychological, or a mambo combo. You say that you are unable to maintain an erection during intercourse. Can you keep an erection when she touches your penis with her hands or mouth, or when you masturbate?
Some men have problems keeping erections at the beginning of a relationship. Then, after they become more comfortable with their new partners, their erections become more reliable. Pay attention to your erection patterns to help you decide if you need to see a urologist or a sex therapist. If you have erections when you wake up or through masturbation, but not with a partner, that's important information that says your body is working correctly, physically. For the time being, why not receive pleasure and not worry about erections? These kinds of difficulties are common and transient. You can view them as part of life rather than as problems. Or, if it is a problem for you, sex therapy may make a difference. Contact the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT) for a referral to a sex therapist near you.

Two new judicial commissioners have been chosen to work for the county.
Wally McClaren Jr., and Crystal McGlothen have been offered jobs as fill-in judicial commissioners. They were chosen from a field of 23 applicants, five of whom were interviewed last week.
The hiring of the two new judicial commissioners brings the total to nine, after the resignation of Herb Rowland, who left after nine months on the job. The county added an additional judicial commissioner to alleviate the heavy workload on existing commissioners.
Both McClaren and McGlothen passed their background checks.
