Glenda Hagood McKay, age 57, of Johnson City, TN, passed away Sunday, July 21, 2013, at the Community Living Center at Mountain Home, TN.
She was a native of Grand Junction Station, Colorado, and a daughter of the late Oral and Bonnie Wright Bosch.
She was a U.S Army Veteran.
Glenda was diagnosed with cancer on the birthday of her youngest daughter in May of 2011. Given her decline of health due to 9 hip surgeries over the preceding two years, doctors gave a pessimistic prognosis. Glenda was treated at the VA Medical Center at Mountain Home. She took treatments that took months to recover from. There was a period of remission, during which Glenda lived life to the fullest, praising her Lord for the blessing of each new day.
Then in December of 2012 it was discovered that the cancer had unfortunately spread to her brain. Again doctors gave her a terminal prognosis. She got to enjoy Christmas and the first half of 2013 without serious impeding symptoms. In April, she got to visit and celebrate her life with her closest and most beloved family members, and had their support as she accepted hospice with a clear sharp mind.
In the preceding months, her decline was more dramatic. Through it all, she stayed true to her faith and thanked the Lord for her very blessed life. When Glenda moved on this past Sunday afternoon, family and friends were left grief stricken, and the doctors and nurses left amazed. Family was not surprised at all by how much grace and dignity she battled her cancer with. Her spirit would not be conquered by a disease. When the doctors estimated her time left, they neglected to factor in her strength of spirit. And it is that spirit we bid farewell to now that she has moved on home.
Glenda will be greeted with open arms by her true love, John McKay; and her Heavenly Father. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, John McKay.
Survivors include her two daughters, Jessica Hagood, Knoxville, TN; Christina King, North Carolina. Several grandchildren also survive.
The memorial service for Mrs. McKay will be conducted at 1:30 P.M. Friday, July 26, 2013, in the East Chapel of Appalachian Funeral Home with a VA Chaplain officiating.
The family will receive friends Friday from 12:30 until 1:30 in the East Parlor of the funeral home.
The graveside service will be conducted at 2:30 P.M. at the Mountain Home National Cemetery.
Memories and condolences may be shared with the family at www.appfh.net.
Appalachian Funeral Home and Cremation Service, 800 E. Watauga Ave., Johnson City, TN is serving the McKay family. (423) 928-6111

Carbone, 19, said he does try to eat healthily but said he pays no attention to the plates.
Sophomore Nicole Grote said while she doesn't match her food to the plates, they've made her more aware of portion sizes, and in general, she thinks the university is taking the right approach.
"I think it makes sense," said Grote, who stays away from both sugar and dairy products. "People should eat healthy."
Peter Heislein, a junior, said the plates have prompted him to choose an apple instead of french fries on occasion, but they have not been a major influence on his diet. And his main reason for preferring the plates had more to do with how they emerge from the dishwasher than the healthy message.
"I wish it was better than this, but I like them because they're not searing hot like the ceramic plates," he said. "It does make a little (health) conscious, but not a ton."
Dining hall manager David Hill said he has seen some students taking the plates seriously, while others ignore them. It's all part of the challenge of keeping up with students' changing tastes while also promoting health, he said.
"We're always trying to infuse more healthy options as a choice, but we don't impose it on people," he said. "That's really our strategy: to have a balance."
A number of versions of the plates are available commercially, and they're often used as teaching tools, said Dr. Robert Post, acting executive director at the USDA's Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion. He did not know of other schools that have been serving food on the plates like UNH but said many are using the image in banners and posters.
And since the USDA launched its "My Plate on Campus" initiative in the spring, he said, more than 800 students in all 50 states and nearly a dozen other countries have signed up to become ambassadors who encourage healthy eating at their schools.
The Wildcat plates are manufactured by a New Hampshire company. With USDA permission, UNH has copyrighted its modified design and hopes to license it to other high schools and colleges that could add their own logos to the plates and use them in their dining halls.

So, you didn't get a ticket to Sochi this winter. Not to worry, sports fans: There are still plenty of sites used in Olympic Games that are open to visitors. Here are some of our favorites.
By Marisa Lascala, CNTraveler.com
PANATHINAIKO STADIO Athens, Greece Summer 1896 In addition to inventing the Olympics, Greece also held the first modern version in 1896, during which this stadium—constructed in 329 BC—showcased all the athletic, gymnastic, wrestling, and weightlifting events. The site is also called "Kallimarmaro," meaning "made of fine marble," and is the finishing point for the contemporary marathon.
ANCIENT OLYMPIA ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE Olympia, Greece Mid Sixth-Century BC Games We wouldn't have the Olympics without the Greeks, and their country is still home to ruins of some of the earliest game sites. Among the remnants of this ancient stadium, you can still see a nearly 700-foot-track, as well as the embankments where the spectators sat. And, despite its age, the site is still worthy of the games: For the 2004 Olympics in Athens, the ancient stadium was the site of the shot put event.
LOS ANGELES MEMORIAL COLISEUM AND THE ROSE BOWL STADIUM Los Angeles, USA Summer 1932 The Depression in full swing during the summer of 1932, so Los Angeles had to look to preexisting venues to house its Olympic events. Thankfully, the city already had some impressive arenas, incuding the Olympic Stadium (now the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum), which had been home to the USC Trojans football team since 1923. During the Olympics, equestrian, gymnastic, and field hockey games were held here; since then, it's the only stadium to have hosted the Olympics—two, in fact, in 1932 and 1984—two Super Bowls, and the World Series. The Rose Bowl is another 1932 relic; it hosted cycling events that summer, and it still serves as a focal point every New Year's day as the site of the Rose Bowl football game. Both arenas are now National Historic Landmarks.
BISLETT STADION Oslo, Norway Winter 1952 When the city of Oslo bought a complex that was once an old brick works, it never could have guessed that more than 60 world records would be set on the site. The stadium held the figure-skating and speed-skating events during the winter Olympics of '52, and continued to hold record-setting skating and track-and-field competitions afterward. The stadium even made the list top 20 venues of the 20th century by Sports Illustrated—one of only four outside of the United States. The original structure was demolished and a new stadium erected in 2005, and it continues to be used for athletic events.
TENNISPALATSI Helsinki, Finland Summer 1952 Not all sports arenas continue to host athletic events once the torch has left town. After the 1952 summer Olympics in Helsinki, the city repurposed some of its sports complexes into museums. The Olympic Stadium is now the Sports Museum of Finland (pictured) and the Tennis Palace is an exhibition space for the Helsinki City Art Museum as well as a movie theater.
MELBOURNE CRICKET GROUND Melbourne, Australia Summer 1956 The MCG—or just "the 'G" if you're among the initiated—was built in 1853 and was pressed into Olympic service more than a century later. During the games, athletic, hockey, soccer, and baseball events were scheduled here, but, as its name suggests, the site is internationally renowned as one of the most famous cricket venues in the world. The stadium is also home to the National Sports Museum, where you can see lifelike, 3-D holograms of cricket player Shane Warne and football star James Hird.
ZETRA ICE HALL Sarajevo, Yugoslavia [Now Bosnia and Herzegovina] Winter 1984 Recently, the Zetra Ice Hall, which was used for hockey and skating events in the 1984 winter Olympics, was renamed the Olympic Hall Juan Antonio Samaranch, and with good reason. The stadium was not only built when Samaranch was president of the International Olympic Committee, he was instrumental in rebuilding it after it was nearly destroyed in the country's civil war. (During the conflict, the stadium was used as a mortuary.) The arena is now a seven-acre, multi-use sports complex and Olympic museum.
CENTENNIAL OLYMPIC STADIUM Atlanta, USA Summer 1996 Today, the venue that was built to host the track and field events at the 1996 summer Olympics is better known as Turner Field, home of the Atlanta Braves. To transform the Olympic-sized stadium into an all-grass, baseball-only facility, 35,000 seats were removed, along with part of the track and field turf. Year-round, one-hour tours take you past all of the park's highlights, including the memorabilia in the Braves Museum & Hall of Fame, the entertainment-filled pavilion Grand Entry Plaza, and the Coca-Cola Sky Field, a picnic area atop the outfield roof that's presided over by a 38-foot tall Coke bottle made of baseball equipment.
ESTADI OLÍMPIC DE MONTJUÏC Barcelona, Spain Summer 1992 Originally built for the 1929 Barcelona International Exposition, the Estadi's impressive stone façade was preserved when the stadium was remodeled to hold the athletic events for the 1992 summer Olympics. Today, its name has changed to the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, but it still has the original 1929 structure, designed by architect Pere Domènech i Roura. It's also still used as a venue for sporting events—or Bruce Springsteen concerts, if he happens to be in town (like he was on May 17 and 18).
BEIJING NATIONAL STADIUM Beijing, China Summer 2008 China debuted many awe-inspiring venues for the summer 2008 games, but none more impressive than the 91,000-capacity Beijing National Stadium also known as the "Bird's Nest." It's been reported that the intricate pattern of the steel beams, inspired by Chinese pottery, forms the world's largest enclosed structure. Today, not only can you take a tour, traversing elevated walkways to best view the steel-frame structure of the stadium, you can also make snow angels in it; in the winter, the stadium hosts a festival with manmade snow.

Cleanliness/ Atmosphere: The "comforter" was had random chalky white marks/stains. Gross! The bedsheets had hairs. The room stank. It felt, smelled, and looked like a slum house. Staff: Check:in: The one and only staff member present was super rude! No provocation, just said hello and offered my passport, debit card, and reservation #. He never apologized. When I respectfully asked for new bedsheets, the one employee yelled at me again. Value: Bad- I had to dry-clean all my clothes.

I was very surprised and impressed with this hotel. The one attendant was ever so helpful when he saw me arrive with 4 pieces of luggage! He helped carry them up to the top floor! You can't beat the location as it is minutes from Paddington station, where the Heathrow Express departs/arrives.

"Brand New Me" is the tune Alicia Keys is singing lately, both literally and figuratively. Girl On Fire is the singer's first album since becoming a wife and mother. And Complex featured Alicia's 'new self' on the cover of its December/January issue. Those with foot fetishes are in for a treat. The 31-year-old singer may feel completely free, but don't expect her to overshare her personal business. "The whole freaking world is looking at your s—. It's scary," she tells the magazine. "I didn't want to say every single thing because you don't want people to know that. There's personal and there's public, and I deserve the right to have a personal space."
Alicia is guarded, rightfully so. Even after 11 years there's still a mystique to her. We can't help but to want to know more about the uber talented musician. For Complex she offers up how happy she was Frank Ocean came out and cryptically talks about what "Unthinkable" is really about. But where's more of the hilarious stories like the ones she told on Monday's Vh1 Storytellers: Alicia Keys? It's safe to assume we'd be waiting a lifetime if we're waiting on her to spiel juicy details on her life. For now we're content with the prodigies musicianship.

Yeesh. Needed that win, Joe. Oh well, let's close it out with a win, Zack!
Rey up 5-2 heading into the 3rd
Sounds like the referee wants to send the crowd home happy....
Rey takes a lung time out. Locked hands call?
Rey wins. Some confusion from Lehigh radio. They though Rey lost his RT, but apparently he kept it. The locked hands and RT point give Rey the win.
Rey wins on locking hands call and RT 7-6
OSU wins 22-12
I think Pucillo needs to move up to 197..He's sure off to a slow start. I hope he turns it around
125: Extremely exciting match. Triggas got taken down a couple times, but got 2 reversals and some backs and finally got the pin in the last minute.
133: Paddock hung tough for the first half of the match. After that, Fisk was too much and started bullying him a little en route to a 8-3 win.
141: Hump wins convincingly--sorry Russ. Ciasulli was verrry close to a TD at one point, but Hump managed to fight it off and the rest wasn't that close.
149: Typical Palmer match. Get a couple takedowns, ride hard, escape, win by 6-7. The only bad thing about his style is that he quite frequently wins by 6-7, so just misses the bonus points.
157: I don't know why Jameson started over Nemec, but I love watching that guy. For the first 2 periods he was dominating and I thought he might get the pin or tech. He was up by 6-7 at the beginning of the 3rd and had over a minute of riding time. Most wrestlers would have sat on a lead like that, but that's just not Jameson's way. As RD says he "goes for broke all the time without caring about what the score is." Such was the case when he tried a verrry sloppy trip and ended up on his back. That gave Bilodeau 4 points, but Tony quickly reversed him to reclaim a 4 point lead. However, Bilodeau then reversed him to his back with about 10 seconds left, getting 5 points to win the match. Jameson is so fun to watch... If he cleans some things up, he could really be great. I had some doubts about how he would transition to college, but he looked great tonight (except for the last minute or so). What is unfortunate is that either he or Nemec has to sit. I don't know who will end up being the long-term starter...
165: Vintage Sponseller takedown-clinic ass kicking. At one point, Heskett was calling out takedowns for him to hit. He finished with 9 takedowns and 2:50 of riding time.
174: Seemed like a very even match. Lots of inactivity from the collar tie with a few spurts of great action. Rella looked very gassed in OT, while Hamlin kept fighting. That ended up being the 11-second difference.
184: With the match tied 2-2, Pucillo kicked Craig to start the 3rd period and go down 3-2. He got the TD and rode him out. He also had about 3 other very-near-takedowns that were out of bounds.
197: I'm pleased with Magrum, who wrestled at 174 last year. He pretty much controlled the match. He was leading 3-1 with riding time secured in the 3rd, and he just sat on the lead. He gave up a TD with 1 second to go, but it didn't matter...
285: I left at the beginning of this match...
The first half of this dual may have been the most exciting half-dual I've seen. Glad I went...
That's ok -I wrestled melde as he had more matches . Seth's 2 losses are to #1 and #6-so I'm happy with him .

Clutch Replacement
A few members asked for a clutch repalcement How-To, so I'd better write-up this up while it's still reasonably fresh. I won't cover the basics (like first drain your oil!), but I will highlight a few of the tricks and lessons learned along the way. The good news is that this is a fairly straight-forward procedure--anyone that knows their way around a wrench shouldn't have any problems (if I can do it, you can do it!).
First and foremost, if you don't have one already, get a copy of the service manual (or download from the first page of this thread).
You will need to drain the oil and coolant, so be sure to have new fluids on hand (and I don't just mean Coors!).
Next disconnect the rear brake pedal and remove the right foot peg (just unbolts, kinda unique) to gain access to all of the bolts on the right crankcase cover.
Disconnect the clutch cable from the case and remove the oil line banjo bolt on the cover. NOTE-don't worry about aligning the oil bolt and oil line holes on the reinstall--it's not necessary.
Remove the right crankcase cover bolts. The bolts are different lengths, so use a magnetic tray or some other means of keeping them in the proper order.
My Solution...
Don't worry about the cover falling on your toes, 'cause it's gonna be cemented to the crankcase with 20 years of industrial strength super glue (i.e., the old gasket)! I used a thin scrap of wood as a "drift" to tap the cover loose from the other side of the bike. This is possible because there is a slight lip where the cranhkcase cover mates to the crankcase. If you try this, be sure that the oil line is safely out of the way (unless you really want to be a ValveCrusher!)
Behold the majesty of the clutch basket! Remove the four bolts securing the clutch lifter plate and remove along with the springs. You may need to hold the plate with channel locks/vice grips/spanner wrench (whatever) to keep the basket from spinning while you do so.
Don't force the castle (/lock) nut!! Unstake it first by prying away the metal collar of the nut from the recess in the central spindle bolt. In order to remove the nut you'll either need to purchase the special Honda clutch center holder and lock nut tools or fabricate some of your own. See my homemade solutions below. Remember...you don't want to bust a nut!
Now the inner and outer basket should slide apart allowing access to the old friction and steel plates. If you plan to replace the set, the EBC DR-51 clutch set includes the friction plate, steel plates, and heavy duty springs. Much cheaper than OEM, but this set is no longer made and getting harder to find. Bike Bandit had 'em.
Probably the most important part of the operation is removing all traces of the old gasket from both the cover and the case prior to installing the new one. You may want to try commercial gasket remover. I just used the DULL side of a razor blade, my fingernail, and paint thinner. Stuff a rag into the case to prevent fossilzed gasket remnants from falling in. NOTE- This was by far the most time-consuming part of the job. You may want to have a Coors or 2 handy for this part!
If you're replacing the plates be sure to soak the new friction plates in oil before installing. The 6 friction and 5 steel plates alternate (F-S-F-S-F-S-F-S-F-S-F)--just be sure to begin and end with friction.
Slap it all back together (you'll need your special tools to hold the clutch basket while you tighten the clutch bolts and lock nut)
Remove and clean the oils screen while you're in there!
Install a new gasket (trust me, you ain't reusing the old one), bolt it up, add fluids (Oil, coolant, Coors) and you're ready to ride. Smooootthhh....
Hope this helps. IB...Outta Here.

Yahoo invests in two online ad companies
- Related Stories
Yahoo second-quarter earnings meet expectationsJuly 18, 2006
Right Media launches online ad auctionJune 19, 2006
Yahoo is acquiring AdInterax, which offers tools allowing marketers to create multimedia ads that Yahoo will integrate into its existing services for advertisers. Financial terms were not disclosed.
"We're moving into this space because we feel the rich media experience should be more ubiquitous," said Todd Teresi, vice president of global sales operations for Yahoo. "It provides tremendous depth of engagement, and enhances user experience, and drives effectiveness into the markets. And it drives efficiency on the network."
Previously, Yahoo worked with third-party providers of multimedia technology to place rich media ads--those containing motion, sound or video--within its network of sites for advertisers. The company will continue to do that, but will include its own rich media technology services for free as part of an advertiser's marketing buy with Yahoo, Teresi said.
Separately, Yahoo led a $45 million Series B financing round in Right Media, which operates a real-time online ad auction network called the Right Media Exchange. The investment gives Yahoo a 20 percent stake in Right Media. Redpoint Ventures and existing investors also participated.
Yahoo is joining the Right Media Exchange, allowing advertisers to bid on its non-premium banner or display ad inventory. Yahoo will also name someone to serve on Right Media's board of directors. The exchange has more than 11,000 buyers and sellers.
Right Media launched its automated online ad exchange in June. The exchange lets Web sites auction off display ad space to the highest bidder rather than having to go through ad agencies or networks, like Yahoo Publisher Network or ValueClick, which set prices and take a cut.
Yahoo, which reports third-quarter results on Tuesday after the close of market, has delayed the release of its new online advertising platform until the fourth quarter.
Display advertising, which includes rich media, made up 34 percent or $4.3 billion in ad revenue for Internet advertising in 2005, according to the Interactive Advertising Bureau.
"Depending on the sophistication, ad agencies are usually the first to adopt, but we do expect over time that the entire customer base will use rich media to drive more effective marketing," said Teresi.

It has been 12 years now since I was told that I had breast cancer…a fast growing type they said. On a scale of two to nine, I was a seven – not a good number to be.
Being the first in my immediate family to be diagnosed with cancer, I searched my ancestor charts for kin who may have died as a result of this particular immune system disease. I came up nearly blank. In fact, throughout the lives of my family members, the most common "disease" seemed to have been old age.
When things get tough, drastic measures often are required to fix them.
Vandalia city officials now find themselves in such a situation.
Facing a budget deficit of $600,000, uncertain funding from the state and an unfilled city manager's position, city officials took some drastic measures of their own at Monday night's city council meeting.
This week's Mystery Banks Photo: These young women were pictured during a physical education class at Brownstown High School more than 60 years ago. Two now live in Vandalia, one in Beecher City and one in Freeport.
Do you know them? If so, call The Leader-Union, 283-3374.
In last week's Mystery Banks Photo was: Gary Stine.
Identifying her was: Charlotte Bone.

15 Years Ago
1995 – The cost of extending sewer lines to Vandalia's western Interstate 70 interchange was less than expected. Thus, Mayor Rich Walker was proposing additional infrastructure improvements, including new sewer lines and manholes along the river bottoms in the city.
Judge Dennis Middendorff ruled that Stuart Heaton, a Bluff City man convicted of murder in 1992, could continue to use a Chicago law firm. Jenner & Block took on Heaton's case on a pro bono (free) basis.
We hear a lot about Paul Beck, who with his son, Guy, are credited with being the first white settlers in Fayette County, entering the dense virgin forest as early as 1805.
There is another Beck – John Beck – who deserves a moment in the spotlight of history. He was Paul's younger brother, and also came to Illinois before statehood, settling in neighboring Montgomery County.
With the political campaign season now in its final 20 days, candidates are crisscrossing the area with amazing regularity. It's good to see them paying attention to our part of the state.
Several high-profile Democratic candidates, including U.S. Senate candidate Alexi Giannoulias, have made stops in Fayette County during the campaign season.
Last Thursday, several statewide Republican candidates visited Vandalia. In attendance were gubernatorial candidate Bill Brady, lieutenant governor candidate Jason Plummer and state Rep. Ron Stephens (R-Greenville).
This week's Mystery Banks Photo: This young man, pictured 60 years ago as a 13-year-old, is now retired from his job as a molder at Graham Packaging. He and his wife (who still works at Graham Packaging) have a daughter and a stepson.
Do you know him? If so, call The Leader-Union, 283-3374.
In last week's Mystery Banks Photo were: Mary Greer Rendleman and John David Greer.
Identifying them were: Carole White, Doris Wehrle, and Beeb and Billye Staff.
Thanks to Operation OUTING, nursing home residents in Vandalia have the opportunity to attend the Evergreen Outreach program at the First United Methodist Church on Mondays.
Operation OUTING also offers them, free of charge, scenic trips to various destinations in our area. For most of them, these outings are the only chance they have to see sights outside of their facility. Imagine yourself in that situation, where you have to depend entirely on others to get outside the bounds of your residence and see the outside world!

Rules of Evidence
A new Senate report on Iraq and al Qaeda ignores everything which gets in the way of its conclusions.
5:30 PM, Sep 8, 2006 • By THOMAS JOSCELYN
ONCE AGAIN headlines from media outlets around the country declare "No Saddam, al-Qaeda link." This time the news cycle is being fed by the release of two reports by the Senate Intelligence Committee, both of which purport to investigate the uses of prewar intelligence. The first of these two reports, titled "Postwar Findings about Iraq's WMD Programs and Links to Terrorism and How They Compare with Prewar Assessments," has pleased Democrats.
Senator Carl Levin says that the report is "a devastating indictment of the Bush-Cheney administration's unrelenting, misleading, and deceptive attempts" to connect Saddam's regime to bin Laden's al Qaeda. Senator Jay Rockefeller agrees with Senator Levin's assessment, saying the report will confirm that "the Bush administration's case for war in Iraq was fundamentally misleading."
But beyond the obvious political gamesmanship, there is little merit to this posturing because there is little serious analysis in the Senate report: Far from providing the definitive word on Saddam's ties to al Qaeda, the report is almost worthless.
CONSIDER TWO BRIEF examples, chosen from many:
The committee's staff made little effort to determine whether or not the testimony of former Iraqi regime officials was truthful. In fact, Saddam Hussein and several of his top operatives--all of whom have an obvious incentive to lie--are cited or quoted without caveats of any sort. In Saddam's debriefing it was suggested that he may cooperate with al Qaeda because "the enemy of my enemy is my friend." According to the report, "Saddam answered that the United States was not Iraq's enemy. He claimed that Iraq only opposed U.S. policies. He specified that if he wanted to cooperate with the enemies of the U.S., he would have allied with North Korea or China."
Anyone with even a partial recollection of the controversy surrounding Iraq in the 1990s will recall that Saddam made it a habit of cursing and threatening the United States. His annual January "Army Day" speeches were laced with threats and promises of retaliation against American assets. That is, when Saddam claimed that the United States was "not Iraq's enemy," he was quite obviously lying. But nowhere in the staff's report is it noted that Saddam's debriefing was substantially at odds with more than a decade of his rhetoric.
The testimony of another former senior Iraqi official is more starkly disturbing. One of Saddam's senior intelligence operatives, Faruq Hijazi, was questioned about his contacts with bin Laden and al Qaeda. There is a substantial body of reporting on Hijazi's ties to al Qaeda throughout the 1990s.
Hijazi admitted to meeting bin Laden once in 1995, but claimed that "this was his sole meeting with bin Ladin or a member of al Qaeda and he is not aware of any other individual following up on the initial contact."
This is not true. Hijazi's best known contact with bin Laden came in December 1998, days after the Clinton administration's Operation Desert Fox concluded. We know the meeting happened because the worldwide media reported it. The meeting took place on December 21, 1998. And just days later, Osama bin Laden warned, "The British and the American people loudly declared their support for their leaders decision to attack Iraq. It is the duty of Muslims to confront, fight, and kill them."
Reports of the alliance became so prevalent that in February 1998 Richard Clarke worried in an email to Sandy Berger, President Clinton's National Security adviser, that if bin Laden were flushed from Afghanistan he would probably just "boogie to Baghdad." Today, Clarke has made a habit of denying that Iraq and al Qaeda were at all connected.
There is a voluminous body of evidence surrounding this December 1998 meeting between Hijazi and bin Laden--yet there is not a single mention of it in the committee's report. THE WEEKLY STANDARD asked the staffers "Why not?" They replied that there was no evidence of the meeting in the intelligence or documents they reviewed.
That's hard to believe. Newspapers such as Milan's Corriere Della Sera and London's Guardian, and the New York Post reported on it. Michael Scheuer, who was the first head of the bin Laden unit from 1996 to 1999, approvingly cited several of these accounts (before his own flip-flop on the issue) in his 2002 book, Through Our Enemies Eyes. Scheuer wrote that Saddam made Hijazi responsible for "nurturing Iraq's ties to [Islamic] fundamentalist warriors," including al Qaeda.
All of this obviously contradicts Hijazi's debriefing; none of it is cited in the committee's report.

When the name Edgar Allen Poe is mentioned the thoughts of horror, shock, and terror come to the common readers mind. Some though, think more powerful words such as revolutionary, intellectual, or gothic. Poe�s works such as Pit And The Pendulum, The Tell-Tale Heart, Hop-Frog, and The Fall of the House of Usher are considered to be staple works of the 19th century gothic genre. Elements of gothic writing include the number seven, madness, and ironic twists.
E.A. Poe used the number seven in his writings to express his gothic style of literature. For example, in Pit And The Pendulum when the character attempted to map his dark surroundings, he counted 52 paces before he had swooned. In reality, the room was only 25 yards in circumference. Addition tell us that 5 plus 2 equals 7 and also in reverse that 2 plus 5 equals 7. Also, in The Tell-Tale Heart the homicidal murderer had stalked his victims eye for 7 nights before killing him on the eighth night. In Hop-Frog, the king had a total of 7 councilors. Finally, in The Fall of the House of Usher, the Usher family memorial in the basement was filled with 7 tombs of dead Usher relatives. Poe�s use of the number seven is found constant through many of his short stories and other works of literature.
Madness is also a common element in Poe�s works. For instance, in Pit And The Pendulum, the character embraces a point of madness as the pendulum slowly swings toward him but eventually overcomes his madness to save himself from the pendulum. Madness is also found in The Tell-Tale Heart becomes the madness embraces the murderer of the novel as he obsesses and distresses over the eye of the old man whom he eventually destroys and dismembers it also infects the character when he is stricken with the guilt of his horrible act. Also, Hop-Frog shows signs of madness as well when Hop-Frog becomes infuriated with the King and his seven councilors behavior and through an extremely well delivered plan has them all torched to a public death. In The Fall of the House of Usher the character Madeline was embraced with the madness (insanity) after being locked in a coffin alive so that her fianc� would be disposed of by her brother. His work with gothic literature and his life as a depressed child, adult, and man has caused madness to be a common influence for in his literature.
Another frequent component in the 19th century gothic literature of Edgar Allen Poe was the use of ironic twists. The previously unmentioned Spanish Inquisition that appeared in Pit And The Pendulum and saved the imprisoned character was a prime example of an ironic and unexpected twist to the story of struggle and survival. The Tell-Tale Heart also has an ironic ending when the murderous character is plagued by hearing the thunderous beating heart of the old-man with the wicked eye forces him into admitting to his horrible crime. An ironic twist also was found in The Fall of the House of Usher. As the story comes to a close the gaping crack found in the wall of the castle eventually causes the House of Usher to come to a collapse a short while after the protagonists asks the butler if they ever thought of fixing the crack and his reply was �If the house dies sir, I die with it.� The ironic twist being that he did die along with the house at the end of the novel. Poe�s use of irony is universal throughout his various works.
The number seven, madness, and ironic twists are all elements of 19th century gothic literature that are commonly used by Edgar Allen Poe in his works which makes him one of the model authors of that specific genre. E.A. Poe was a revolutionary author of his time who based his works of terror, horror, and pain on his own life and helped add color to his empty canvas of a life by stroking the paint of his imagination to create his many masterpieces of 19th century gothic literature.
Edgar Allen Poe works such as: Hop-Frog, Pit & The Pendulum, The Tell-Tale Heard, and The Fall of the House of Usher

In Lydia's senior year, she felt like she had a choice of two paths, to return to the circus ring of auditions for graduate school, or to test her training and launch into the professional freelance life of a violinist. At the time, neither were that appealing, so as fate would have it, she happened to log onto the study abroad website and search for music programs abroad – there was one for the Academy of Music in Krakow, Poland. Lydia had no particular draw to Poland, but did like the opportunity to study at a European conservatory.
Going to Poland was a huge shock from the very beginning. The language itself was completely foreign, she was lucky at least that it used the Roman alphabet and not Cyrillic. But three years of French in high school were no help with a Slavic language, where the word for her own instrument, violin, was skrzypce. Lydia tried to prepare by listening to Polish-on-tape courses from the library, which taught (her) to count to ten and say rudimentary phrases. Besides that, listening to her classmates speak Polish was kind of like Charlie Brown's teacher – just noise, and trying to act a response based on the inflexion of their words. Her year abroad taught many lessons, not only about music, but as the only American at the Academy of Music, she had a unique immersion into Polish life, and as she traveled internationally on her own, she felt like she learned "smarts" and had a lot of time to examine her new life – views and actions.

Book review: The House of Silk, Sherlock Holmes novel
Author: Anthony Horowitz
Publisher: Hachette
Pages: 294
Sherlock Holmes and his faithful Dr Watson return with 'The House of Silk'. And who better than his greatest nemesis Professor James Moriarty serving as the hand of God in the time of need. Holmes with all his eccentricities and human follies, as always, shows glimpses of an ingenious mind at work.
Author Anthony Horowitz through 'The House of Silk' pays homage to one of the greatest detective writers of all times, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. He tries to recreate the aura of 221B Baker Street in the backdrop of 19th century London complete with gas lamps and curricle. Best known for his screenplays, the BAFTA-winning Foyle's War and mini-series Collision and Injustice, he is said to have committed the most murders (fictional) than any other living author. But by the same token he has also authored the bestselling Alex Rider children series.
