Warrick County keeps diametric interests in place
A demolition derby driver. The chief of a volunteer fire department. A championship-caliber archer. The operator of a bookstore whose shop once was a bank.
From Newburgh to Folsomville, from Lynnville to Tennyson, their lives don't intersect. But what they do have in common is they all live in Warrick County, Indiana.
Garret Mathews, a staff writer at the Courier & Press who covers Warrick County, wondered and asked: Are their personalities as varied as their life's pursuits?
His questions provide a snapshot of a day in the lives of some Warrick County residents.
This mud-splattered demolition derby car, a battered 1987 Mercury, has the same inscription on the trunk as every vehicle Daniel Williams drives.
"It's dedicated to Larry Clark. He wasn't really my grandfather, but we were close enough that that's what I called him," says the 22-year-old ironworker from Tennyson who has been entering derbies since 2005.
Diane Williams watches her son weld the axle of the Mercury.
"After my father passed away, Daniel didn't have a grandfather. When we moved to Tennyson 18 years ago, Larry sorta adopted our three children. He went to their school events, and they worked together in the hay field. It was quite a blow when he passed away from cancer in 2007."
Daniel Williams finished fifth at the demolition derby held at during the Warrick County 4-H Fair.
"I cleared 10 bucks after paying the $30 registration fee. There's not exactly a lot of money in it, but at least I haven't been hurt."
The young man typically spends $300 on a junk car and another $2,000 getting it ready for competition.
"I remove all the glass and put the battery on the inside. I add roll bars and do some things to brace the driver's-side door. I can get one ready in two days if I have to."
The best derby vehicles, Daniel Williams says, "are Toyotas and Dodge K-cars. That's because the rear ends are so strong."
Diane Williams watches all her son's crash-'em contests.
"I'm the one with the big mouth. I really get charged up when other cars bang into him."
Dennis West leans over the front of his four-wheeler and splashes weedkiller on the high grass creeping into his soybean field.
"On the one hand, what I'm doing is cosmetic, but if the weeds make seed they'll be even worse next year," says the 53-year-old Warrick County man who rents 12 pieces of ground totaling 850 acres. He's spraying this day along the Boonville-New Harmony Road not far from Elberfeld.
West installed equipment for 10 years before becoming a farmer.
"I like this kind of work so much better. It's the freedom of being outside."
This is the first year he hasn't toiled alongside his father, Shirley.
"It was time. He's 79 and gets tired quicker than he used to."
The container of weedkiller holds 15 gallons. West, who is on his fourth tank, expects to finish spraying all the fields by dusk.
Some of the land he's working is part of the old Elmer Fehd farm.
"The man is gone now, but he's a legend to a lot of people in this area. He spent a lot of time and effort making sure there was still farmland around here that didn't get developed. He stood up to the corporate types."
Dennis West expects to harvest his corn and soybeans "by around Labor Day. The heat really got us in July, but we had a couple of crop-saving rains."
He says his 22-year-old son, Andrew, "isn't very interested in working the land, but my 17-year-old daughter (Helena) joined the FFA at Castle on her own."
Big grin.
"If that doesn't work out, maybe she'll marry a farmer."
A bell rings inside Thara Jean's Place in Lynnville. A customer has pulled in the drive-through lane.
"Your turn," says Carla Meyer, 49, to Devin Miley, 21.
Meyer cooks at the eatery, sometimes putting in 12-hour days. Miley, who washes dishes and takes orders, is a student at the University of Southern Indiana and rarely works longer than an afternoon or an evening.
The young woman knows the pecking order and, order book in hand, heads to the back window.
"We've got this down to a science," Meyer says, grinning.
It's 4 p.m. and business is slow. The two women are the only employees on duty at the restaurant owned by the Freudenberg family.
"I want customers to say I make the best fried chicken they've ever eaten," says Meyer, who used to manage the American Legion in Elberfeld. "My breaded tenderloin and pork chops are good, too. That means I spend a lot of time alone in the kitchen. How do I pass the time? Talking to myself."
A woman comes in and asks if the restaurant "cooks fast food like Subway." Meyer explains that meals are prepared fresh and take at least 10 minutes. The woman turns to leave.
"Hey, just being honest," the cook replies.
Miley takes an occasional turn at cooking, but says she "gets nervous" when there are a lot of customers.
"What I really want to do is manage a nursing home," Miley says.
"I was raised by my grandparents, so I'm pretty patient around older people. I've always thought they were really cool."
Casey Lockhart playfully flips his $400 cowboy hat against the young horse's face.
"I named him Tornado," the 73-year-old DeGonia Springs man says. "Not because of his color or his speed or anything like that. It comes from the storm."
The tornado on Nov. 6, 2005, killed 25 people in Vanderburgh and Warrick counties.
"It destroyed everything I had," Lockhart recalls.
"My house was literally sitting in the middle of the highway. I was under a bunch of stuff and heard a deputy sheriff talking like I was dead."
The overseer of the Rusty Spur Ranch rebuilt within a year only to have his barn severely damaged by the ice storm in late January 2009.
"If that's not bad enough, I had a grease fire in my kitchen a month or so ago. But I've come back. I always come back."
Lockhart has broken horses, ridden rodeo bulls and tooled around Europe on his Harley-Davidson motorcycle. A licensed pilot, he's learning to shoot pool and play the guitar.
"I've been lucky. I've done lots of things in my life," says the man who put in long stints with the Air Force and at Alcoa's Warrick Operations.
At one time, he operated a foaling facility on the ranch. It wasn't unusual for him to have more than 100 head of horses.
"No more. I gave a big bunch away. Some people can't afford a nice horse. I figured I could help."
This is the same man who hauled two loads of hay to Texas not long ago when farmers there were in the middle of a record-setting drought.
Lockhart pulls down his shirt to show a misshapen collarbone.
"This is what happens when you're trying to work with a young horse and get thrown down.
"My body's full of busted bones, but I don't have any regrets. Never have."
Asked how many employees she has, Wynne Beck raises her hand.
"I'm all I need," says the 58-year-old manager of the Book Nook in Newburgh's historical district. "Any more and we'd trip over each other."
The book store was a bank in the early part of Newburgh's history.
"I keep my histories and biographies in the vault. You have to step past the giant door to get in. I think the customers like it."
The meticulously organized Beck — she majored in library science — has her 45,000 or so titles in alphabetical order by the author's name. Browsers must beware of the uneven floors. There are warning signs for the low ceilings. The below-street location and the wooden rafters provides a cellarlike feel.
"Sometimes I'll do searches if a customer wants a special book," says Beck, who's been in business since 1998. "I've got a few titles from the 1800s, but many of my books are paperbacks that I price between $1 and $15."
She also trades books. A woman brings in a stack topped off by a pile of Danielle Steel tomes and is given a $10 bill for her trouble.
"I'm pretty liberal except for water-damaged ones. I turn those down flat. People don't want to turn a page and see a brown spot."
It's 2 p.m.: Time for Casey Crow to open his shaved ice stand on the outlot of the Buehler's Buy-Low store in Newburgh.
"Tiger blood is the most popular flavor of the 30 or so that I carry, but coconut and strawberry are right up there," says the 25-year-old man who's in his second year of operation.
Summer Ice prices range from $1.25 for a small serving to $2.25 for large.
"I don't make a lot of money," Crow admits. "Pretty much less than $200 a day. The good thing is that I have my own business."
He makes the ice at home and buys the syrup from wholesalers. His season starts in April and ends in September.
"You'd think I'd sell more this summer as hot as it's been, but the weird thing is that I did better last year. People are funny when it comes to cooling off."
The fairways of the Boonville Country Club are largely free of golf balls and their strikers this steamy afternoon, but Bernie Meyer is about to play the back nine.
"I try to play once or twice a week, but that doesn't always work out," says the 56-year-old Meyer, the athletic director at Boonville High School. He's playing this day with neighbor Zach Shearer, a 16-year-old student at Boonville, where he's a member of the golf team.
"I'm three over right now and down by one stroke. That gives me plenty of time to catch up," Meyer says, grinning.
Meyer doesn't enter golf tournaments "because they want you to walk. I have a couple of bad knees from playing baseball at the University of Evansville back in the 1970s. I ran through the coach's stop sign at third base because I thought I could score. I got tagged out and got my legs messed up. I might be able to hoof it for nine holes, but I need a cart if I'm going to make 18."
His best round on the par-71 course is a 66. Shearer's lowest score is a 76.
"This is a place for me to relax," Meyer says. "I put my cell phone on vibrate so I won't get disturbed. Only three calls have come in since we started our round, and only one was important."
It's a slow day at the lake that's part of the Yellow Banks Campground: Six swimmers and two lifeguards.
"We should be able to keep up," says Haley Adams-Fugate, 17, a senior at Tecumseh High School. "This is my second year as a guard, but I've been swimming here as long as I can remember."
Her helper this sweltering afternoon is Adrian Madden, 16, a junior at the same school.
"We used to have a trapeze that you could swing down and enter the water," says Madden, a first-year lifeguard who also works at Holiday World & Splashin' Safari in Spencer County. "There was a sliding board, too, but that got closed for insurance reasons."
There are four lifeguards in all to look over the lake that has an average depth of about 6 feet.
Adams-Fugate has her future mapped out.
"I'm going to join the Marines and be a crime scene investigator," she says while watching Logan Karviak do a backward flip off the diving board.
Madden is a member of Tecumseh's cross-country team. If college doesn't work out, he says he'll consider the military.
"You have to stay focused to be a lifeguard," Adams-Fugate says. "I had a pretty close call one day during a Boy Scout event when a kid jumped off the diving board and didn't come up to the surface. I had to use my arm to pull him up to the beach. It was scary for a few seconds. That's not something you want to happen."
"It's a good job, though," Madden says. "Even if it's a bad day, you've still got the water."
It's a test for the aerial ladder truck. Volunteer firefighters (and husband and wife) Kyle and Stacie Clark at the Yankeetown station work the controls and in less than two minutes raise the monster unit to its full height of 102 feet.
Fire Chief Terry Snodgrass nods in approval.
"This is a big truck for a rural community, but our area covers Alcoa (Warrick Operations), so you never know when it will come in handy," says the 56-year-old Snodgrass.
There are 23 members of the fire department, including seven women. They receive a gasoline and clothing allowance from the state, and Snodgrass pays them $10 for each meeting they attend.
"Count the Sunday and Monday training sessions and business meetings and times when we get together to learn some medical and you could maybe make $600 a year," Snodgrass says.
He's been chief since 1999, taking over the top spot when his father, Thomas, died.
"I grew up with firefighting. I definitely know the life."
Snodgrass is a heavy equipment operator at Century Aluminum plant in Hawesville, Ky. He spends 50 hours a week on the job and that doesn't count the round-trip commute of two hours.
"I like to go antiquing, but there isn't much time when you consider I spend 20 hours a week with the firefighting crew. Mostly I think about going antiquing."
The Yankeetown Fire Station's rolling stock includes the aerial platform, one pumper, a pair of 3,000-gallon tankers, a brush truck, a medical truck and a rescue vehicle.
"Probably the biggest fire we ever had was about 20 years ago that lasted an entire week," Snodgrass recalls.
"We were at that 100-acre field all day and all night and absolutely couldn't get it put out. The guy who set it was an arsonist. I don't know how he did it, but he was always one step ahead of us."
David Burdette takes a final squint into his scope, draws his bow and releases the arrow. It speeds to the target at 285 feet per second and makes impact with the deer facsimile with a resounding thud.
The 39-year-old Burdette is pleased with the shot. The "deer" stands 45 yards away and his arrow was within an inch of where he aimed.
The Boonville man is practicing at the Blackhawk Bowhunters' facility in Yankeetown. The club has 54 members and holds contests the fourth Sunday of the month. Burdette is one of the better archers and once pocketed $180 at a regional competition.
"Counting the scope, I've got about $1,200 invested in this rig plus 12 bucks per arrow," says Burdette, who has pursued the hobby since he was 12. "But you don't have to spend this much. A starter set runs for about $300."
At 100 yards, Burdette says a skilled shooter would have to bring his best game to put an arrow inside a 10-inch circle.
"The wind comes into play. Every flaw of your shot is magnified by three. There's a tremendous amount of power in a shot. Say you're standing a football field's length away. That arrow is gonna go clean through you. The body isn't strong enough to stop it."
Burdette says he has brought down "more than 20" deer with bow and arrow.
He's also had success hunting with a muzzleloader.
"People always ask if a Robin Hood shot is possible. That means for the second arrow to follow the same exact path of the first and split it in two. It's very difficult, but I've done it a few times."
He laughs.
"Legend has it that Robin Hood accomplished the feat while riding a horse. I hate to say something is impossible, but I'm afraid that would be."
The Once in a Blue Moon Swap Shop on the Courthouse Square in Boonville offers a wide range of merchandise. Lamps. Video games. Jewelry. Clocks. Golf clubs. Pocket watches. Band instruments. Even a sword.
Prices vary, too.
You can purchase three DVDs for a dollar or invest $2,000 in a Model 1911 Colt .45-caliber pistol.
"Some people think we're a pawnshop, but that's wrong," says Joyce Mason, who runs the place with occasional help from her father, Ron Clark. "There are way too many regulations to operate a pawnshop, too much record-keeping. We're better off selling and swapping."
There's no shortage of merchandise that comes Mason's way.
"Men and women are offering up things just to keep the water on and their utilities paid. Times are tough."
She enjoys dealing in antiques, "but nationwide those items have taken a dive. Unless it's something pristine, there's just not a market. We had to liquidate a lot of our stock just to stay open."
No customers are in the store this day. Joyce Mason turns up the volume on "The Andy Griffith Show" and suppresses a yawn.
"Hey, there's one good thing about having your own business. If I get too bored, I can just lock up and go home."
Brian Beard's baseball team finished second in a recent tournament in Newburgh, but the 39-year-old coach wasn't completely happy with the Southern Indiana Spikes' performance.
"We need work on fielding bunts and how to catch pop-ups over the shoulder. Also, we had some boys who tagged up too soon on sacrifice flies."
The all-star team of 10-year-olds from Warrick, Gibson, Spencer and Perry counties are practicing at the Lynnville ball field. Aaron Beard, Brian's son, is a member of the team.
"Most of these boys will be good enough to play baseball in high school unless the coach of another sport takes them away," says Beard, a computer applications manager who lives in Lynn-ville.
Tryouts for the Spikes are in August. Practice begins in January at an indoor facility in Lamar, Ind.
"It's a busy schedule for the boys," Beard says. "Most of them play in regular leagues, and then go to weekend tournaments with us as far away as Owensboro and Hopkinsville in Kentucky."
At these competitions, it's not unusual for the kids to start playing at 8 a.m. Parents are assessed a $500 annual fee that covers entry fees, insurance and travel expenses.
Walker Nurrenbern, 10, of Francisco, Ind., is taking batting practice. Beard asks him to work on hitting outside pitches to the opposite field.
"I was pretty decent playing at Tecumseh, but I burned myself out and didn't even try to play at the next level," Brian Beard says. "I gained the 25 pounds a lot of college kids put on."
He helps coach the Tecumseh High School softball team that has daughter Allison as a member.
"I probably put in 15 hours a week coaching the Spikes, and that doesn't count the individual work I do with Aaron. But I enjoy it so much I usually don't look at it as time spent."
James Briscoe's wife, Carole, has an herb and vitamin business (Naturally Yours) that's one of the few business establishments in and around tiny Folsomville.
"I don't do much more than lock and unlock the door," says the 70-year-old retiree from Whirlpool. "She's afraid I'll ruin the business, and she's probably right."
Briscoe's hobbies are on the outside. He has a miniature horse named Rowdy that follows him around like a dog.
Not quite as friendly are his six Barbados sheep.
"They shed wool, so you don't have to do any shearing. I like to look at 'em jump a 52-inch fence, but mostly I guess you could say they're around so I don't have to mow the grass. The sheep are also good at keeping the honeysuckle and poison oak down."
When Briscoe isn't busy mailing his wife's orders in Tennyson, he takes inventory of the countryside.
"One day I counted seven albino deer. And you wouldn't believe the wild turkeys. There might be as many as 80 in a roost."
Briscoe says some miniature horses in Rowdy's class are worth more than $100,000.
"Not this little fellow, though. I only took him as a favor to a friend. He might fetch $1,500 and he might not. But I like his attitude. I mean, he's not about to pull a wagon. All he wants to do is eat and stay at my heels. I only wish I could do a better job of keeping the horse flies off him. I hate to see the thing hurting."
The Briscoes have 22 grandchildren who enjoy spending time in perhaps the most remote spot in Warrick County.
"And if they run out of things to do, they can always pet Rowdy," James Briscoe says, grinning. "I know one thing. He's sure cute enough."

FARMERS INSURANCE OPEN: Ogilvy sets up shop in Del Mar
LA JOLLA — Geoff Ogilvy spent much of his childhood in Melbourne, Australia, a seaside city blessed with cool coastal breezes, beautiful beaches and abundant water sports.
So when Ogilvy chose Scottsdale, Ariz. — the home for many PGA Tour players — as his U.S. base, it's fair to say he felt like a fish out of water. Sure, Arizona golf is sublime, but when the temperature soars well above 100 degrees in the summer, even longtime desert dwellers sometimes question their sanity, to say nothing of fair-weather immigrants from Down Under.
As an escape from the unrelenting heat, Ogilvy, his wife, Juli, and his two children (he now has three) began spending their summers in Del Mar. After staying for the entire summer of 2008, the year when the U.S. Open was held at Torrey Pines Golf Course, they embarked on the almost 400-mile drive back to Scottsdale, and they wondered what they were doing.
"We'd be driving back over the mountains, and you drive over those mountains and you go down and it's going up a degree every second almost," Ogilvy said Wednesday. "And you get down to the bottom of the hill and it's 105, and it's like, 'Why are we going back?' So we eventually just decided on one of the trips back for winter that this would be our last winter — let's just get over soon."
On Thursday, when Ogilvy makes his season debut in the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines, he will do so as a Del Mar resident, joining Rancho Santa Fe's Phil Mickelson as prominent golfers who live in North County and tennis legend Rod Laver of Carlsbad as famous Australian sports figures who call the area home.
"This is very much like Australia around here," said Ogilvy, who considers himself a surfing enthusiast. "A lot of Australians I know say they're comfortable around here. The trees are all Australian trees. You stole them (laughing).
"But it's an Australian-type lifestyle, the surfing and the beach. It's a very beachy culture, which is kind of what we're used to. The climate is obviously pretty amazing."
With Torrey Pines now located just a short jaunt south away, you might think that Ogilvy has acquired a mastery of a course that has traditionally befuddled him. The 34-year-old has competed in the Farmers Insurance Open (formerly the Buick Invitational) only four times since joining the PGA Tour in 2001 and made the cut just once (2003, when he tied for 67th). But Ogilvy said his practice round Tuesday was his first one at Torrey Pines since the U.S. Open four years ago.
"There are lots of nice golf courses around here that don't have 50 people standing on the first tee when you line up, which is testament of how cool the place is," said Ogilvy, who looked quite comfortable on the North Course when his team shot a 17-under par to win Wednesday's pro-am.
"This is pretty unique — it's a bit like Bethpage in New York. It's the pride and joy of the city, really. So I don't need to come and play here too much. I've got lots of places to play; this is the place for the public to play."

Ivan Rodriguez is reportedly slated to announce his retirement from baseball today. There will be much written about his impressive career, and much of it will focus on whether or not he will get into the Hall of Fame, even though his numbers pretty obviously warrant it. Personally, I think that leaves aside the whole issue of who such a great player had not one but two lame nicknames: "Pudge," which would not be so bad if it had not already been used, and "I-Rod," which involved the incredibly annoying "first initial-first syllable" lazy nicknaming thing. It makes it hard to give this post a decent title.
As in past posts of this sort, rather than looking at a career overview, let's focus on a few particular moments: Rodriguez' three biggest in-game hits according to Win Probability Added. (W

Jason Jones, a 56-year-old ex-con, supplements his living by scavenging the streets of New Orleans. He has no home, no wife, no children, and no teeth. I spent a recent Sunday following him through his city's blighted housing projects. Six years after Hurricane Katrina, the ruins remain nearly untouched in many places. And without more federal funding, the cleanup effort is unlikely to move forward anytime soon.

I erased everything that was here. So here is the new approach to this
I have more fun doing all the stuff I am supposed to tell you about by myself than sitting here hoping someone else wants to join me. A relationship will come along, hope is just a dream we need help with. I am a good person. I am very active. I look younger than my age. I am not a muscle bound beast, but I look good. I have been divorced a year and a half. I have two young daughters that I am very close too and are my first priority, no one is changing that. They do not need a Mom, she's doing a great job. I would like to find the person that we all want, a best friend, motivator, doesn't cheat, no need to lie, etc. Really, I want to walk away from this digital bar scene Facebook ripoff with someone I'm attracted to and can spend time with. If it becomes more than that, all the better. I have a list of hobbies you can't keep up with. I don't expect anyone too. But I am pretty sure we can find one that will work. I will probably take up one of yours anyway. I am generally not the most serious person. I like to goof off, joke and sarcasm is my friend. I am not a big drinker, socially and occasions. I'd rather hold your hand than a beer. But I will drive you home. I like sports, but follow nothing close enough to tell you much about it. I'd rather go play them. The couch is only a good place to be when your there too. Ya, you guessed it, I watch very little tv. Without company, I just don't seem to find it satisfying. I am a mix breed of half city boy, half country literally. I get dirty when I play and love to clean up for a night on the town. Sometimes my career can keep me out of town for short periods of time. I'm done for now maybe I'll add more later. I am pretty sure I am not wasting anymore time with Match at the end of August since it has been very time consuming with zero feedback over the last nine months. Later!

Airports may be a frequent source of massive frustration—just ask anyone who had to travel cross-country this past week—but sometimes they provide us with moments that just melt your heart.
Realistically speaking, turkeys don't stand a chance this Thanksgiving. But that hasn't stopped these fowl-tempered (sorry) beasts from fighting back against their would-be devourers, us humans.
The weather outside is frightful and the photos depicting it are most definitely not delightful.
As our stomachs prepare for Thursday's massive caloric intake, let's take a look at how a few of our animal pals do it.
It's beginning to look a LOT like Christmas.
UPDATE 3:15 p.m. EST: The lockdown and shelter-in-place orders have been lifted, according to the Yale alert system. Police have been going door-to-door on campus searching for the gunman, though authorities will not confirm whether it may have been a hoax.
Baby animals and baby bottles—that pretty much sums it up.

It's every k-12 education reporter's favorite time of year: test score day! (I meant to post this earlier, but after sorting my 27th spreadsheet, my mind was rendered temporarily useless.)
Do you want to see how your school did last school year? You can find a spreadsheet with multiple tabs (East Bay, Oakland, and Oakland sorted by API score and growth) here. If you want to see it in print, we're running a big chart listing the API scores and No Child Left Behind status of all the schools in our area in tomorrow's (Thursday's) paper. Here is a link to the California Department of Education's website.
For my story on No Child Left Behind, I talked to two Oakland principals — Marco Franco, of Sobrante Park, and Charles Wilson, of Fred T. Korematsu Discovery Academy — about their experiences with Program Improvement, a status that is shared by more schools each year as the student proficiency standards get tougher. (By 2014, all students are supposed to reach proficiency in reading and math, as the federal law is currently written.)

My "Worldwide Wow!" Trip to Cannes
By Matt Stevens
Nothing epitomizes international glamour quite like the Cannes Film Festival. Every May, talented filmmakers, famous actors, and devoted moviegoers from around the globe gather to celebrate cinema — and fashion. (Just check out Fan Bingbing Doll, which recreates the Chinese actress' spectacular look for Cannes 2010.)
So you can imagine my excitement at attending this très chic extravaganza back in the '90s!
My favorite moment during the dazzling, dizzying 12-day event was walking the red carpet at the Palais des Festivals, where hordes of fans screamed and countless cameras flashed. I felt like a celebrity myself! Of course, I wasn't — I was a Florida State film student at the time. Through a special arrangement with the Festival, my classmates and I were allowed free access to screenings.
Yes, I still had to buy a plane ticket, borrow a tuxedo, and obtain a passport — I'd never been abroad before — but the extra expense and effort was worth it for the opportunity of a lifetime. We flew from Tampa to Milan, drove along the gorgeous Riviera to the Côte d'Azur, and stayed in the nearby town of Grasse, the center of the French perfume industry. Every evening, we attended black-tie premieres and then attempted to sneak into exclusive after-parties. Sometimes we even succeeded.
The entire Cannes Film Festival experience — a crazy convergence of showbiz, art, and haute couture — was thrilling and surreal, a "Worldwide Wow!" adventure I'll treasure forever.
Now, Barbie Collector celebrates "Worldwide Wow!" moments with an exquisite trio of international dolls. In addition to Fan Bingbing Doll, dressed in her striking "Dragon Robe" gown, the assortment includes Italian enchantress Dulcissima™ Barbie® Doll. This bella donna inspires amore in her short A-line skirt with matching cape and embroidered boots. For a sportier vibe, kick it with Brazilian stunner BRITTO Barbie® Doll, who scores major style points in a soccer-print dress by artist Romero Britto. They're all available in the shop now, to add a new kind of "Wow!" to your collection!
Matt Stevens is a twice-published author and sold screenwriter who specializes in movies and pop culture. A former producer for E! Entertainment Television, he now writes about film for their website, E! Online, and contributes to numerous new-media outlets. Since his first games-writing gig for Barbie.com, Matt has been tickled pink to work on BarbieGirls.com and MyScene.com before joining the BC blogger team.

A walk around the picturesque fishing port to the Ciboure side of the harbor will take you past the house where Maurice Ravel was born (No. 27), and to this rustic maritime dining room. The simple, home-style menu here is based on what the fishing fleet caught that morning; in cold weather, try the hearty marmitako (tuna stew). The views over the harbor are unbeatable.

N6-Methyladenosine (m6A ) is an abundant modification in mRNA and is found within some viruses,[1][2] and most eukaryotes including mammals,[3][4][5][6] insects,[7] plants[8][9][10] and yeast.[11][12] It is also found in tRNA, rRNA, and small nuclear RNA (snRNA) as well as several long non-coding RNA, such as Xist.[13][14]
Adenosine methylation is directed by a large m6A methyltransferase complex containing METTL3 as the SAM-binding sub-unit.[15] In vitro, this methyltransferase complex preferentially methylates RNA oligonucleotides containing GGACU[16] and a similar preference was identified in vivo in mapped m6A sites in Rous sarcoma virus genomic RNA[17] and in bovine prolactin mRNA.[18]
Species distribution[edit]
In budding yeast (Sacharomyces cerevisiae), the homologue of METTL3, IME4 is induced in diploid cells in response to nitrogen and fermentable carbon source starvation and is required for mRNA methylation and the initiation of correct meiosis and sporulation.[11][12] mRNAs of IME1 and IME2, key early regulators of meiosis, are known to be targets for methylation, as are transcripts of IME4 itself.[12]
In plants, the majority of the m6A is found within 150 nucleotides before the start of the poly(A) tail.[19]
Mutations of MTA, the Arabidopsis thaliana homologue of METTL3, results in embryo arrest at the globular stage. A >90% reduction of m6A levels in mature plants leads to dramatically altered growth patterns and floral homeotic abnormalities.[19]
Mapping of m6A in human and mouse RNA has identified over 18,000 m6A sites in the transcripts of more than 7,000 human genes with a consensus sequence of [G/A/U][G>A]m6AC[U>A/C][13][14] consistent with the previously identified motif. The localization of individual m6A sites in many mRNAs is highly similar between human and mouse,[13][14] and transcriptome-wide analysis reveals that m6A is found in regions of high evolutionary conservation.[13] m6A is found within long internal exons and is preferentially enriched within 3' UTRs and around stop codons. m6A within 3' UTRs is also associated with the presence of microRNA binding sites; roughly 2/3 of the mRNAs which contain an m6A site within their 3' UTR also have at least one microRNA binding site.[13]
m6A is susceptible to dynamic regulation both throughout development and in response to cellular stimuli. Analysis of m6A in mouse brain RNA reveals that m6A levels are low during embryonic development and increase dramatically by adulthood.[13] Additionally, silencing the m6A methyltransferase significantly affects gene expression and alternative RNA splicing patterns, resulting in modulation of the p53 (also known as TP53) signalling pathway and apoptosis.[14]
The importance of m6A methylation for physiological processes was recently demonstrated. Inhibition of m6A methylation via pharmacological inhibition of cellular methylations or more specifically by siRNA-mediated silencing of the m6A methylase Mettl3 led to the elongation of the circadian period. In contrast, overexpression of Mettl3 led to a shorter period. The mammalian circadian clock, composed of a transcription feedback loop tightly regulated to oscillate with a period of about 24 hours, is therefore extremely sensitive to perturbations in m6A-dependent RNA processing, likely due to the presence of m6A sites within clock gene transcripts.[20][21]
Clinical significance[edit]
The obesity risk gene, FTO, encodes the first identified m6A demethylase.[13][22] FTO mutations have been associated with increased risk for obesity and type 2 diabetes, which implicates m6A in important physiological pathways related to human disease. FTO knockdown with siRNA leads to increased amounts of m6A in poly(A) RNA,[14] whereas overexpression of FTO results in decreased amounts of m6A in human cells.[13] FTO partially localizes to nuclear speckles,[22] which supports the notion that m6A in nuclear RNA is a major physiological substrate of FTO. The consequences of FTO-guided demethylation are unknown, but it is likely to affect the processing of pre-mRNA, other nuclear RNAs, or both. The discovery that FTO functions as a cellular m6A demethylase suggests that increased FTO activity in patients with FTO mutations leads to abnormally low levels of m6A in target mRNAs, which through as-yet undefined pathways contributes to the onset of obesity and related diseases.

The study cohort was composed of employees who worked in the regional offices of Kaiser Permanente Northern California. The employees worked in administrative, financial, regulatory, technical and professional services and were not involved with direct patient care. They tend to use computers for much of their work. Participation had no bearing on job performance, employment status, or health benefits. The participants' information was kept confidential and did not appear on medical records or employee files.
Before the program began, participants were evaluated on their eating and exercise habits by answering a short, online questionnaire, to which they received immediate feedback. They filled out the online questionnaire twice more, at the end of the program and four months later.
Another paper published in January in the Journal of Medical Internet Research found that the ALIVE e-mail program reduced presenteeism among the trial participants and reduced bodily pain. Presenteeism is lost productivity that occurs when employees come to work but perform below par due to any kind of illness. The study did not look at whether employees used the e-mail program during their lunch hour or during their regular work hour.
"Using e-mail to get people active is a great use of existing technology that is cheap and readily available," said Bob Sallis, MD, a Kaiser Permanente family physician who is the regional exercise champion for Kaiser Permanente's Southern California region and immediate past president of the American College of Sports Medicine. "Anything we can do to increase activity level is going to improve health because we know that exercise is medicine. It's medicine you can take to live a longer and healthier life."

A 19-year-old Arlington woman facing a manslaughter charge for the accidental drowning of her infant son is scheduled to be in court for a custody hearing today (MON) concerning her other son. The 8-month-old son of Christina DeLeon died after allegedly being left unattended in a bathtub while DeLeon was caring for her 18-month-old son. DeLeon has since reportedly undergone psychiatric evaluations and began court-ordered therapy in order to be granted visitation rights. Child protective services is asking the court that her parental rights be revoked completely. Another hearing is set for December 16th as well. DeLeon is facing three felony counts, including manslaughter, child neglect and a drug crime involving children after methamphetamine paraphernalia was allegedly found in her home. She is also now being charged with wrongfully obtaining public assistance for allegedly purchasing baby formula with a WIC voucher for the deceased infant. A warrant has been issued for her arrest.

combat animation looks cool, hope you make it even more smoother
Alpha 100 has the most important update so far, which is the first playable prototype of unarmed striking. I will describe it in more detail, but first, just watch the video demo!
Posted by jeffr on Oct 13th, 2010
Alpha 100 has the most important update so far, which is the first playable prototype of unarmed striking. I will describe it in more detail, but first, just watch the video demo!
I am starting the combat system with an upgraded version of the Lugaru system, and then I can experiment with new additions like air attacks and grappling.
Compared to other fighting systems, the biggest difference is that you don't attack when you press the attack button. Instead, you hold down the attack button to signal the intent to attack, and then the attack is launched once you're in range. This allows you to concentrate more on tactics and strategy, and less on basic timing and move memorization. It also makes fights look cooler and flow better because there are fewer "whiffed" attacks. There are a few whiffs in the video above, but that is because the system doesn't yet compensate for minor post-attack position changes caused by sliding or hit reactions.
There are three attacks: a spin kick, a push kick, and a leg sweep. You launch the spin kick if you're holding a direction key, the sweep if you are crouching, and the push kick otherwise. You can also control the direction of horizontal attacks by holding the left or right movement key. If you preorder, you can try it out now!
Damage is inspired by the Smash Brothers series, in that enemies get knocked back harder based on how much damage they have accumulated -- this should help allow for combination attacks without complicating the control scheme. This method is reasonable because a fresh fighter can guard effectively and block attacks, but as he gets tired, he starts to let his guard down and take more hits.
There's still a lot of work to for the basic fighting, but this is an exciting step! Most of the basic technical features are in, so now I can focus more on gameplay. For those who preordered, do you have any thoughts about the fighting controls so far?

combat animation looks cool, hope you make it even more smoother
this is just the begining man its his first crack at it
just look at the first lugaru and check out its fightin system
It has a lot of potential, but it sorta looks comical right now. It needs to look more mature/brutal. Just my 2 cents.
The turning looks a bit too GoKarty for me. Is this game going to use some kind of targeting system? because that could be a good idea.
it targets on its own hard to explain just play the first game and see what im talkin bout
what would really make it look cool is nice fighting moves with surrounding objects ore using walls and such to create a more awesome feel to fighting in this game (just my thought)
Chuck Norris would be proud!
Interesting. I suppose other species (or what should I call them?) will use different limbs for fighting, though..?
Lmao the slow-mo. I think the recovering/standing up after getting hit animation needs to be improved with more frames. :P
tbh, i think it needs any frames at all :p there is no standing up animation yet :3
Looks good, when you get all the final animations in and stuff like that I can imagine a nice lugaru-ish combat :)
That was pretty awesome :) Think getting up animation or w/e physics blending solution you do needs a little work but as for the core of the video the kicking, reaction and flow it was super
i will soooo buy this game when it releases
p.s. lugaru was awesome
preorder ftw:P
ooh, it remember me a Paul combo, from teken3,wana see more, what next boxing? weapon fight?
Only thin gnot happy with his the slow mo after knock down, i hope its not like that for every knock out :\
I downloaded this alpha to "try it out" and ended up playing for over an hour, it's amazing how fun it is to simply walk around and jump (please keep the momentum based movement, event if it probably needs to be turned down a notch).
I feel that this game could really work with some RPG elements, being able to gain exp and unlock new moves to come back and defeat a powerfull enemy should work really well.
Regardless of what you do, I think it's headed on the right direction, Im impressed to see how far it's come since the last time I tried an alpha.
Looks great
i'm impressed
pretty good! got my attention i must say. keep up the good work!
Lookin' smooth.
Nice, it really looks like he's actually punching him, not waving vaguely in his direction like other games.
That Grass is HUGE.
Would it be possible for the rabbit to kick while standing on his hands or ears?
That would be pretty awesome :)
why no punches?
The Lugaru combat system was pretty old but effective... More hit and run fighting.
Eventually, we'll have Dog Warriors donning heavy armor and weapons, and you expect them to "hold down" the mouse button to attack?
Not all of the creatures in Overgrowth will be capable of rapid quick attacks anyhow. Meaning you need another system to combine it with.
Look at how Lugaru works with the knives and swords. If it's a throwable weapon then there is a key to throw it. If not, then attacking like normal works great. It's as simple as changing the range of the auto attack depending on the range of the weapon.
I hope the standing up animation is going to be replaced (or added if it's not yet).
nice i think if u make the hit sounds harder it well be awesome

Lots of paper does not like some RC and all (AFAIK) fiber paper. If it has developer I would wait longer, but if it's completely stopped it should be pretty light safe even before it goes into the fix.

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa — In a misty rain that African officials said symbolized the departure of a great leader, mourners wept at South Africa's state memorial for Nelson Mandela, but also sang, danced and ululated to celebrate the man President Obama eulogized as a giant of history.
Leaders and dignitaries from more than 100 countries attended the service, where Obama invoked Mandela's spirit in impassioned remarks that urged young Africans and world leaders alike to "search then for his strength, for his largeness of spirit, somewhere inside ourselves."
Clouds hung low over the soccer stadium in Johannesburg's Soweto township, but the atmosphere was full of joy, as many in attendance sang old liberation struggle songs extolling Mandela, who died Thursday at 95.
"It was electrifying," one young mourner, Tumi Simelane, said later. "It was more of a celebration." She said she attended the service because she wanted to honor Mandela and witness one of South Africa's momentous events.
"I thought yesterday about Nelson Mandela and I realized it's actually history being made, and I wanted to be part of this," she said. "I want to be able to tell my kids that I was there to send a hero back to heaven."
In South African culture, rain is seen as a blessing symbolizing major events. The deputy president of the ruling African National Congress, Cyril Ramaphosa, opened the memorial, saying that "if it rains when you are buried, it means the gods are welcoming you and the gates of heaven are opening."
"In many ways we are here to tell Madiba that his long walk is over, that he can finally rest. His long walk is over, but ours is only beginning," Ramaphosa said, referring to Mandela by his clan name.
Tuesday's service began with rousing cheers and the words, "Comrades! Long live the spirit of Nelson Mandela! Long live!"
The Mandela family, which has been deeply divided in recent months, looked ashen and strained as they arrived and took their places. Mandela's widow, Graca Machel, regarded as the peacemaker in the family, embraced his second wife, Winnie Madikizela-Mandela.
When President Jacob Zuma entered the stadium, he drew a hearty cheer from ANC members, but then, little by little, some in the crowd began booing. The boos died down when Zuma addressed the gathering.
The 95,000-seat stadium was far less than full, perhaps because of the rain. Authorities had also urged people from provinces besides Gauteng, which is home to Johannesburg, to stay away, fearing that so many people would turn out that there could be a crush or disorder.
Mandela, the leader of the movement to end South Africa's brutal apartheid system of racial discrimination and the nation's first black president, died Thursday night after having contracted severe pneumonia in June, from which he never fully recovered. South African media reported that he came down with a new infection shortly before he died.
The former president, who in the 1960s was sentenced to prison on charges of sabotage and conspiracy to overthrow the government, had battled recurrent lung infections since becoming ill during his 27 years of incarceration, which ended in 1990.
South Africans revere him for the sacrifice of spending nearly three decades in prison and for his triumph in negotiating a peaceful end to apartheid. But to many in the South African ruling party, the tough, uncompromising younger Mandela, who advocated violent struggle to answer the violence of apartheid, is just as important.
"The world is here," a South African newspaper headline read as leaders jetted in Tuesday from around the globe, a logistical, diplomatic and security nightmare. Obama was caught in morning traffic, arriving after the memorial had begun, and there were complaints that members of the public underwent no security screening as they entered a stadium in which dozens of world leaders were seated.
With some of the world's autocrats listening, Obama said that too many leaders claimed solidarity with South Africa's liberation struggle while falling short of the democratic values Mandela espoused.
"There are too many of us who happily embrace Madiba's legacy of racial reconciliation but passionately resist even modest reforms that would challenge chronic poverty and growing inequality. There are too many leaders who claim solidarity with Madiba's struggle for freedom but do not tolerate dissent from their own people," Obama said.
The crowd repeatedly burst into cheers during Obama's impassioned eulogy, at times almost drowning him out.
Obama compared Mandela, a Nobel Peace Prize recipient, to Abraham Lincoln, Mohandas K. Gandhi and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and to America's Founding Fathers.
In a week of obituaries that often endowed Mandela — who was president from 1994 to 1999 — with a saintly, iconic status, Obama rejected the view of him as "smiling and serene, detached from the tawdry affairs of lesser men."

I love life, and treasure it each day, because I have come so very close to losing it, more times than I can count! That's not to say that I don't get grumpy, so I've chosen as this site's avatar the photo of me taken by my husband on my 60th birthday.

Nutrition assessment and counselling in individuals with active tuberculosis
In 2012 there were an estimated 8.6 million new cases of tuberculosis (TB) globally. TB morbidity and mortality are highest in developing countries.
Undernutrition increases the risk of tuberculosis and vice-versa and, as a result, undernutrition is highly prevalent among people with tuberculosis. It has been demonstrated that undernutrition is a risk factor for progression from tuberculosis infection to active tuberculosis disease and that undernutrition at the time of diagnosis of active tuberculosis is a predictor of increased risk of death and tuberculosis relapse. However, the evidence concerning the effect of nutritional supplementation on tuberculosis prevention and health outcomes among people with tuberculosis had not previously been systematically reviewed.
Nutrition assessment and counselling are critical components of managing undernutrition in individuals with active tuberculosis.
WHO recommendations
All individuals with active TB should receive: i) an assessment of their nutritional status, and ii) appropriate counselling based on their nutritional status at diagnosis and throughout treatment.
This is one of several WHO recommendations on nutritional care of individuals with TB. The full set of recommendations can be found in 'Full set of recommendations' and in the guidelines, under 'WHO documents' below.
