by SierraWilla was an atheist. A self-styled "unschooler," she attended homeschool conventions and activities with her two children, Alexis (9) and Steven (5), and it was there that she met my mother. Willa's husband worked in a field that I knew only abstractly as something involving computers and sales. He was a passive, taciturn man with whom I never exchanged a single word. Their children were boisterous, especially Alexis. Willa attached herself to my mother very quickly. Since Alexis was my age, we were an automatic source of play dates, which often really amounted to tea parties for our mothers. Common interests seemed to abound at first: homeschooling, books, and bargains. Both ador … [Read more...]

Daughter of the Barren
Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD.-Isaiah 54:1by SierraThe first time I saw my mother cry, she was hunched over the dresser in her bedroom, silent, her shoulders shaking. I had almost walked into the room, but when I noticed her posture I paused and silently backed away, then ran, on tiptoe, to escape the jarring sight. I had not yet turned ten, but I knew what her tears meant.She was crying for my brother, the one lost in miscarriage just before she'd begun taking me to our new church. Every C … [Read more...]
Daughter of the Patriarchy: Signs
The end of the world I never had the chance to knowby SierraWhen I reached the age of nine, I began seriously worrying about the age of accountability and the Rapture. There was no magical number attached to the former; indeed, the fact that I was old enough to worry about it seemed evidence enough that I should worry. I was obviously old enough to understand sin, and consequently was old enough to miss the Rapture. And the Rapture was coming. Of that we all were certain.William Branham taught that only the elect, or Bride of Christ, would make it to Paradise in a dramatic snatching-away in the last moments of time. In a 1958 sermon entitled "The Sudden, Secret Going Away of the C … [Read more...]
Our lonely little legalistic world …
by ErikaDuring that first year of homeschooling, my sister took Driver's Ed at the public school. I would go with her in the hopes of being able to spend some time outside the school hanging out with some of my friends. Because my sister had taken to wearing really frumpy jumpers that looked like something out of Little House on the Prairie, some of the guys had started calling her the "Virgin Mary."A conversation started outside after Driver's Ed about Jesus and Mary. Someone asked how it could be possible that Jesus was born to a virgin. I made the mistake of saying, right in front of my sister, "Perhaps Mary was artificially inseminated." As soon as it came out of my mouth, I knew I'd … [Read more...]
Daughter of the Patriarchy: Casualties
by SierraSoft breaths of cinnamon and vanilla wafted down into the basement from Anna's kitchen. Laughter chorused over our heads as Sven and I busily fortified our Lego castle with rubber animals: his were the dogs, mine the cats. We worked together to fend off a motley invasion of snakes, hyenas and whatever other ugly miscreants we could dig from the toy bin. Pirates were only ever united by a common love of money. Bare light bulbs hung glaring over our heads, but we ignored them. Tiring of the siege, we took refuge under the stairs and ripped open a bag of butter cookies. Chessmen. We spared no cavalry or foot soldier in the cookie massacre. We were eight years old.Sneaking upstairs t … [Read more...]
Daughter of the Patriarchy: Hairspray
by SierraI awoke with my lungs filled with something pungent and sticky. I sat up groggily in the upper bunk, fumbling around for a watch or cell phone to tell me why it was still dark when so many beds were vacated. A light shone dimly across the long dorm room through a hazy moisture hanging in the air. My hand closed around someone's small alarm clock, and I squinted at it. 5:30am.It was hairspray, I discovered as I staggered toward the bathroom. Lithe, elegantly dressed young women gathered cheerfully around the bathroom mirrors as they unrolled golden-flecked curls that fell gently to their thighs. Each strip of hair, carefully unbound from a foam roller, was sprayed within an inch o … [Read more...]
The Destiny of a Virtuous Daughter ~ Part I: Beginnings of the Mask
by Starfury Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me? -MulanFor as long as I can remember, I was somebody else. My driving factors were love, approval, and being wanted, for who I was. That never came, in part due to the fact that in my work to achieve my goals I molded who I was to others' specifications. As a result, I am trying to figure out who I am, even though I'm now an adult. Even now, it is easy to slip into the role that I deem others expect of me. It is hard to summon up the strength to remove the mask I've become so good at wearing, out of fear of reproach and backlash.Ultimately, I was to be the perfect daughter. My family had to appear as the model family, … [Read more...]
I Am So Much More Than a Maiden of Virtue! Part 1 ~ I learned to keep my fear of hell to myself
by WanderingOneI grew up hearing about my grandparents' and great-grandparents' deep faith. Religiosity was, for my family, an important family heritage that was carefully handed down to us children. Christianity was the most important thing my parents and grandparents thought that they could pass down to us. On my dad's side, my great grandfather was a minister. On my mom's side, my grandparents served on the mission field in Latin America for a few years after they got married. There was no escaping religion—it was instilled in us from before we could grasp it.I can't really say much about how things got to be as "bad" as they did. I know my family has always been conservative, B … [Read more...]
Looking Back: My Family 10 Years on From Fundamentalism
by AriettyThe past is a foreign country: they do things differently there. ~ L.P. Hartley, The Go-BetweenWhen looking back at my family during our days of patriarchal fundamentalism this opening line in the novel The Go-Between often comes to mind. In the last decade we have journeyed so far from where we once were we may have well have moved countries entirely. In the beginning of our journey we were like refugees, clinging to our past forms and beliefs while trying to figure out what part of this new culture wouldn't damage us. For we had read and been preached to and fervently believed that our now adopted culture--The World--was one of poison and sure death to family bonds and … [Read more...]
Daughter of the Patriarchy: Two Snakes and a Virgin – The Serpent's Seed
by SierraI was about nine years old when I started paying attention to some of the doctrines that were slowly infiltrating my life over the past two years. I'd stopped wearing pants or cutting my hair by the end of the first year, following my mother's lead. The last pair of pants she wore were a lovely pair of wide-leg trousers with a sheer lace overlay; they could pass for a skirt until she took a step. She wore them to church, then threw them away – she felt "convicted" for wearing a man's garment. She threw away her makeup, too, keeping only a sheer moisturizing lip gloss as a token of her past.I liked my new dresses, and I liked the long hair slowly descended across my shoulders. I' … [Read more...]

Here's a real looker, this 1973 Ford Mustang Convertible is perfect for those sunny summer days. It is in very good condition and runs and drives very well. Finished in red with a black interior and black top, it is the perfect color combo to enjoy top down motoring.
Under the hood is the original 302ci V8 mated to a 3-speed automatic for easy but spirited drives. It features convenience options such as power steering, power brakes with front discs, and a power convertible top. It came out of the Dearborn, MI plant and was sold new in Kentucky and is on its 3rd owner but the ownership history is known from new. In the recent past, it has received: new paint, new top, new seat covers, new trunk liner, period correct Firestone Wide Oval tires, and a new exhaust from the headers back.
It is believed to have just over 113,000 original miles but cannot be verified. There are a couple of minor TLC items to tidy up such as a few of the gauges need some help but other than that, this is a great looking and driving classic convertible Mustang. Get in, drop the top, and go!

GREENVILLE - In a long, high-scoring affair that also included a 40-minute rain delay, the Charleston RiverDogs topped the Greenville Drive with an 8-7 victory Tuesday night at Fluor Field in South Atlantic League action.
Tuesday's win also allowed the RiverDogs to even their overall record and return to .500 for the first time since May 30.
Charleston jumped to 31-27 in the second half and 64-64 overall. The RiverDogs had been as many as 14 games below .500 before returning to a non-losing record on Tuesday. Greenville slipped to 18-40 and 52-75, respectively.
The RiverDogs rallied for five runs in the top of the third and took a 6-2 advantage. Gosuke Katoh walked and Avelino walked before a rain delay interrupted a plate appearance by Tyler Wade.
Following the delay, Wade drew a walk that loaded the bases. After back-to-back flyouts, Jackson Valera singled to tie the game. Yeicok Calderon, Brandon Thomas, and Eduardo de Oleo all drove in runs with walks. Katoh added another run with a single to cap the scoring.
The Drive rallied in the eighth, but it was stopped short at 8-7 in favor of the RiverDogs. With two outs and the bases loaded, Wendell Rijo singled to drive in Danny Bethea. Jimmy Rider scored on a wild pitch to cut the difference to one. However, a groundout closed the inning and Greenville was held scoreless in the ninth.
Conor Mullee picked up his first RiverDogs win, tossing 1.2 shutout innings and moving to 1-0 for Charleston. Daniel McGrath lost and fell to 5-6 after allowing a career-high seven walks and six runs. Eric Ruth pitched the final 1.1 innings for a save, his sixth of the season.
Coming up
Game two of the three-game series will be played at 7:05 p.m. Wednesday with RiverDogs RHP Andy Beresford (1-1, 3.79 ERA) scheduled to face Drive RHP Myles Smith (4-9, 5.87 ERA).

Spaccanapoli: No one can claim...
Spaccanapoli: No one can claim to have truly enjoyed the best of Naples who hasn't spent at least a couple of days in the section of town known generically as Spaccanapoli, or 'Split Naples,' so named after the long straight progression of narrow streets that bisects the Centro, especially in the area between Piazza del Ges Nuovo and the Via del Duomo. Important not only for the presence here of distinguished churches, monuments, statues and archaeological sites, Spaccanapoli, with its grandiose Baroque palazzi and warren of colorful vicoli, recalls Naples as it was under the reign of the Bourbons, from 1734 to the arrival of Garibaldi's liberating Redshirts in 1860. The Neapolitans rightly consider Spaccanapoli, in all its noisy confusion and exhilarating vitality, to be the city's soul. Spaccanapoli itself has been closed to traffic, the whole area is safe to wander in and the rewards, visual and cultural, for a sightseer are many. Most of the restored palazzi, such as the elegant Carafa and the Spinelli, with its strangely beautiful elliptical courtyard and bas-reliefs, can be visited and carry identifying placards beside their front entrances. Well-marked accesses to the archaeological sites are situated conveniently near the Duomo and other churches. They offer tantalizing glimpses into the Roman and Greek civilizations that underlie the whole city and one Napoli Sotterranea, provides a spooky, comprehensive hour-and-a-half tour of these long-vanished worlds.
The churches themselves are wonderful in their variety, ranging from the fantastically ornate to the austere Gothic of the Monastery of Santa Chiara, destroyed by incendiary bombs during World War II but rebuilt exactly as it had been. In contrast is the Church of Ges Nuovo across the way, with its rich mosaics, inlaid marbles, paintings and sculptures and, in a side chapel, the busts of 70 saints perching serenely on top of their reliquaries as if in miniature opera boxes. The privately owned little Chapel of Sansevero is a cornucopia of treasures, including the piece known as the 'Veiled Christ,' made in 1753 by Giuseppe Sanmartino, a statue so technically amazing that another accomplished sculptor, Antonio Canova, on a visit to Naples, reportedly attempted to buy it for himself. Less well known, the Church of San Gregorio Armeno provides an oasis of cool silence from the hubbub outside in the street of the same name, where for generations Neapolitans have manufactured their presepi, or Christmas mangers. The last time I visited San Gregorio Armeno, a baby was being baptized, the child's family the only others present, while from high above the nave a cluster of beaming, bare-breasted angels gazed down upon the scene, a reminder that the church was originally founded as a convent for the wayward daughters of the nobility.
And then, in isolated splendor, its elaborate decorated ceiling supported on 16 piers incorporating more than 100 antique columns, there is the great Duomo of San Gennaro (St. Januarius), known affectionately to Neapolitans as San Gennà. Indifferent to the fact that under Vatican II San Genn was inexplicably demoted from the Holy See's official calendar of saints, his constituents still consider him the city's guardian angel and his dried blood, kept in a couple of ornate vials in a side chapel, continues miraculously to liquefy several times a year, most notably on his feast day, Sept. 19. Visitors can reserve early for good seats at the event. San Genn's most vocal supporters maintain that the city's well-being depends on the speed of the liquefaction, a phenomenon no one has yet been able to debunk. Older Neapolitans tend to believe in miracles and, given their city's tumultuous history, why shouldn't they?
Capella Sanservo.I don't...
Capella Sanservo.
I don't know if this is really 'off the beaten path' since it is in the middle of the historic centre, but it wasn't easy to find.
The chapel predates the 18th century when alchemist Raimondo decided to redecorate. What you see are his improvements. It is fairly small and the main points of interest are the fantastically carved marble tombs. I thought the most impressive was 'Disillusionment', showing the figure of a man struggling under a net.
Raimondo was apparently ex-communicated for his experiments on people and you can see two of his victims in a small room downstairs. He created something that preserved the veins and capillaries of the body and what is on view are a man and a woman. A bit gruesome, really, but you have to walk past them to exit.

We have to define what the...
We have to define what the Beaten Path is to determine when we've gotten off of it. The one thing that is for sure is that people beat a huge path to see Pompeii.
This ancient city at the foot of Vesuvius was quite prosperous in Roman times. It was destroyed in 79 A.C., following the famous volcanic eruption which covered it with a layer of pumice and ash. The first archaeological explorations took place towards the mid-18th century, and excavations soon began in earnest, but not until 1860 were they conducted in an orderly, systematic fashion. It is thought that, to date, about three-fifths of the ancient town has been excavated. Pompeii is one of the most important archaeological sites in the world, because it provides a complete picture of the topography and life of a Roman town.
Walk through ancient streets to visit the Villa of the Mysteries, the House of the Faun and of the Vettii brothers. Discover baths, basilicas, temples, theatres, private homes, the amphitheater, even the palestra where gladiators trained for the arena.
For those who choose to travel by private car, also visit the so-called 'Villa of Poppaea,' the second wife of the emperor Nero. It is located at Oplantis, which was a holiday resort area for the rich who had their vast suburban villas built here in order to live in sumptuously decorated surroundings far from the noise and inconvenience of Pompeii. Amongst these villas stands one whose size and rich mural decorations set it apart from all of others. The 'Villa of Poppaea' is the largest and most luxurious suburban villa so far brought to light.
The town, built on an elliptical plan, was divided by a regular network of streets intersecting at right angles. The houses generally had two floors, with a garden or internal courtyard, and were decorated by architectural coverings and paintings of fine quality.
The Forum, a vast rectangular square, was the fulcrum of the political, religious and economic life of the town, and is bordered by the main public buildings.
There are two theatres: the Odeon, built between 80-75 B.C., used for musical recitals and mime-shows, and the Large Theatre, with seating for 5,000 spectators, which dates from the Hellenistic period (200-150 B.C.). The largest baths were the Stabian Baths, built in the Samnite period and reconstructed in the Imperial period. The stucco decoration, dating from the Flavian period, is some of the finest surviving.
The many houses of remarkable beauty include the House of the Vettii, one of the most interesting examples of a rich merchant's house, while the Villa of Mysteries is perhaps the most important building in the whole of Pompeii. Its most interesting feature is a cycle of paintings dating from the 1st century B.C. which decorate the walls of one of the rooms in the centre of the house.
Many other buildings are worth special attention. These include: the House of Menander, the House of Loreius Tiburtinus, the House of the Golden Cherubs, the House of the Faun, the Villa of Diomedes and the Amphitheatre.
Ponte di Chiaia/Chiaia Bridge
Built in the 17th century, it was restored at the beginning of the the 19th century.
At the end of Via Chiaia.

If anyone has help it suggestions is greatly appreciate it! I'm so sleep deprived its not even funny
Baby confused night vs day & wakes 20 mins after I put him into bassinet
If anyone has help it suggestions is greatly appreciate it! I'm so sleep deprived its not even funny
Leo having a Leo!
During the day introduce the baby to sound. Whatever happens naturally in your house let it be, such as kids playing, vacuum, dishwasher. Also take the baby outside for fresh air and sun.
It may be too cold, or he just wants to be near you. My son had the same problem in the hospital, the only way I got any sleep was to keep him on me or near me. Since we came home he has been better, but then again I keep him on me for about 30 minutes after each feed since he tends to spit up. Also he sleeps in his rock and play for the most part. Try having one of his blankets have you scent, or warming up his bassinet before putting him down. It could help.
My baby is only 4 days old, and sleeps for at least two hours in my arms only. When he goes in his crib, he'll wake up within 20 minutes... I've noticed swaddling helps him sleep longer away from me.

Piper is ready to begin producing five conforming aircraft for its very light jet programme after completing the preliminary design review with no major modifications.
The PiperJet in March completed the review, which according to chief executive Kevin Gould gave the manufacturer's owners the confidence to invest in producing conforming aircraft. "We came away confident that we are on track to meet all the goals for the airplane," Gould says, referring to both performance and cost.
Piper vice-president engineering Dennis Olcott says the Florida-based manufacturer will start building tooling and parts for conforming aircraft this summer. He says a fleet of three conforming aircraft will be used in the PiperJet flight-test programme while another two aircraft will be used for structural testing.
Olcott expects the certification programme will take about 30 months to complete, leading to first deliveries in the first half of 2013. He says the proof-of-concept aircraft will continue to be flown outside the certification programme as Piper sees it as a useful tool for gaining additional information.
The proof-of-concept PiperJet has so far logged over 240 flights and more than 340 hours. It is now flying on average seven to 10 flights a week.
Olcott says there will be some differences between the proof-of-concept and conforming aircraft but none of them are noticeable. He says the Williams FJ44 engine will stay in the same high position on the aircraft.
Olcott says the main objective of the proof-of-concept aircraft was to determine if the unusual position of the engine and nozzle was acceptable from a design perspective. He says the conclusion was "it flies just like an airplane with the engine at the front".
He says the proof-of-concept programme was also used to test new manufacturing techniques. Piper is looking at how much of these techniques it should apply when producing the conforming aircraft.
As the PiperJet programme moves to the next stage, the manufacturer is looking to hire 60 additional engineers. It already has 80 engineers assigned to the project, many of which were hired using a new tranche of funds provided by Imprimis after the Brunei-based investment firm purchased Piper last year.
Piper says there has not been any big influx of orders, which stand at about 200, since the Imprimis funds allowed Piper to reaccelerate the programme. But Olcott points out there has not been any big sales campaign as Piper has been focusing the last year on advancing the programme to the preliminary design review stage.

Audition CS6 Essential Training demonstrates all of the major features of Adobe Audition and prepares sound editors to start enhancing and correcting audio—whether it's music, dialogue, or other sound effects. Author and musician Garrick Chow begins by covering how to import, record, and manage media files, from extracting audio and importing video, to creating a new multitrack session from scratch. The course then dives deep into editing, repairing, and cleaning up audio files, using the Waveform and Multitrack Editors, and the Spectral Frequency Display. It also covers how to use built-in effects, how to mix both stereo and surround audio tracks, and how to work with video projects from Premiere Pro.
If you have a Premium subscription to the lynda.com Online Training Library, or if you're watching this course on a disk, you have access to the sample audio and video files I use throughout this course, and you can use these files to work along with me. I've organized the files into folders for each chapter. My recommendation is to create a copy of each chapter's files before you start working along with that chapter. That way you'll always have fresh, unaltered versions of the files to work with in case you want to start over at any point. On Macs you can hold down the Option key while dragging a folder to a location like your desktop to create a copy of that file.
Alternately, you can right-click a folder or a file, choose to Copy it, and then right-click in the folder you want to copy that item to and choose Paste Item. You can do the same things in Windows by right-clicking a folder, choosing Copy, and then right-clicking and pasting it to create your copy. Now if you don't have access to the exercise files, you can work along with your own audio and video files, and you should still be able to follow along with no problem.
There are currently no FAQs about Audition CS6 Essential Training.
Access exercise files from a button right under the course name.
Search within course videos and transcripts, and jump right to the results.
Remove icons showing you already watched videos if you want to start over.

Do not stay here. Upon entering the crowded hostel lobby, our group of 5 was given 1 key and our knapsacks were thrown into a ghetto storage room. The different coloured neon walls are a poor attempt at making the place seem friendly. The room we stayed in consisted of bunk beds with missing rungs and messed sheets with hair. There was a large sticky mouse trap under the heater and someone left their vanilla pudding on the sink. The room was absolutely freezing at night. The staff were neither friendly nor helpful. The one positive thing about this place was its proximity to the subway, that is, after you walk by all the sketchy drug dealers that wait outside.

In the winter of '96/'97, while everyone was riding 6'1″ thrusters featuring Slater's elf shoe rocker and long before the "retro fish" craze, two kids attacked the North Shore and beyond on 5'5″ twin fins. The subsequent action and other oddities ended up being patched/edited into the 1997 …Lost surf movie 5'5" x 19 1/4″ and other oddities…
What started out as an addendum of random recent "fish clips" has turned into a magnus opus of epic proportion. Over 10… or 8… or 12 years in the making comes… 5'5″ x 19 1/4″ REDUX. Starring Chris Ward, Aaron Cormican and Mason Ho putting sub 5'6" boards to their limits. Also featuring sections from Shane Beschen, Kolohe Andino, Dane Reynolds, Jordy Smith, Ryan Carlson and Ol' Mr. Slater himself.
…and for the first time ever seen – Cory Lopez and Ian Walsh – on the wave that could instantly change your definition of "the perfect wave".

Howard Simon of WGR Radio reports that the Buffalo Bills are expected to interview former Bears head coach Lovie Smith this weekend. The Bills are reportedly considering a number of options including Ken Whisenhunt, Chip Kelly, Ray Horton and Doug Marrone. Whisenhunt actually interviewed for the job a few days ago and appears to be the favorite, but Smith could change that if he can convince the Bills that he's capable of getting more out of their defense.

Weekend Entertaining: Squash pizza great for night with the girls
A couple of weeks ago, I decided it was time for a "Girls' Night In." Several of my friends came over and we ate chips and dip, cheese and crackers and had a glass of wine or two. We also made pizzas.
I got several 12-inch pre-baked crusts. I had thought about making them from scratch, but just didn't have the time.
I have a pizza stone in my bottom oven, which makes for a nice crispy crust. If you don't have one, just put a baking sheet in the oven while preheating, and transfer your pizza to it when ready to bake.
I made one -- Pizza alla Zucca -- using acorn squash. A small butternut squash would be equally good. (The Italian word "zucca" refers generally to any of the hard-skinned winter squashes.)
The easiest way to peel either is to cut into slices with a heavy knife, and then cut off the skin around the edges of the slice. Then it's easy to grate for this recipe.
You could cut this into 12 thin wedges for an appetizer, or into six wedges for larger servings.

Pizza Alla Zucca
2 tbsp. good fruity olive oil
1 tbsp. unsalted butter
3 plump cloves garlic, peeled and minced
½ cup onion, finely chopped
2 to 3 cups peeled and grated acorn (or other winter) squash
2 tbsp. fresh rosemary, finely chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
1 (12-inch) pre-baked pizza crust
4 oz. gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
4 oz. mozzarella, grated
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. In a heavy skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and stir about 30 seconds. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent. Add the squash and rosemary and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
Lift the squash mixture from the pan with a slotted spoon, leaving behind any fat or liquid that drains off. Spread on crust to about ½ inch from the edges. Sprinkle first with the gorgonzola and then the mozzarella.
Put on preheated pizza stone or baking sheet and bake for about 5 minutes, until topping is melted and lightly browned. Let set for 5 minutes before cutting into wedges to serve.

The next week should prove interesting for Vancouver and the Sedin twins. According to a Sportsnet report JP Barry — the agent representing Daniel and Henrik Sedin — will head to Vancouver to begin contract talks 'in earnest' with Vancouver GM Mike Gillis. That said the Canucks captain stressed there's no timeline for a decision to be made. "I'm sure we're going to talk before training camp and see where we are" Henrik explained. "For us there's no rush I mean if things can get done we're more than happy but if not we're happy to wait." The Sedins are headed into the final years of the matching five-year $30.5 million deals signed in 2009. The brothers have each spent all of their 12-year careers in Vancouver becoming two of the best players in team history. Henrik won the first-ever Hart Trophy in franchise history following the 2009-10 season; a year later Daniel was nominated for league MVP (which went to Anaheim's Corey Perry.) It will be interesting to see what financi

The Southern Reporter (Paperback)
Learn more about The Southern Reporter:
From the Publisher:
The past isn't dead. It isn't even the past," William Faulker wrote.The Southern Reporter constitutes a report on the collisions between a present that cannot find its voice and a past that reaches out incessantly into the lives of contemporary men and women.
An old Louisiana lawyer finds himself in California seeking a missing heir who is a physicist, musician, doctor, theologian-and a leader of a crazed and murderous santanistic cult.
A childless retired couple prepares treats for Halloween's children-only to find that the "children" have taken on the character of their terrifying costumes.
An elderly lawyer, dying of cancer, is forced to recall an even greater pain and finds his own kind of salvation in the remembrance of love.
A court reporter, who has spent his life recording the crimes and affairs of others, at last cannot stand the flood of evil and visits his own justice on a man the jury has found innocent of rape.
A young boy is caught between his high-spirited, hell-raising uncle and the deadly civilizing force of his mother.
The Southern Reporter penetrates the façade of contemporary life, looking for its roots in the past -- not simply the past of its people but the looming imaginary structure of western history, against which all of us lead our lives -- and die our deaths. The search for images of order and the loss of them constitute the meaning of The Southern Reporter.

A photo of Clyde Drexler you should really see
Sep 3, 2011, 11:20 PM EDT
On a day defined by the pageantry of universities engaged in fierce competition and the colorful imagery of teams like Oregon and Georgia showing off new post-space-age uniforms, we thought we'd bring you an image from the past of a game we won't be seeing possibly until after college football is over.
Michael Jordan won the 1987 dunk contest, but Clyde "The Glide" Drexler had himself a nice showing. If we're looking for iconic memories of the game that's been buried as billionaire owners and millionaire owners continue to haggle over money, here's one for the books.
(HT: UpNorthTrips via Get Banged On)
That's just pretty.
- Doyle Rader - Sep 3, 2011 at 11:26 PM
Is this the perfect photograph?
- valman61 - Sep 3, 2011 at 11:55 PM
That picture looks fake. Almost like nba 2k11 or 12. The player looks computer animated and the crowd looks real. Just sayin
- blaq007 - Sep 4, 2011 at 3:38 PM
smh….you young jerks and your computers/video games….i remember watching this. everything, contrary to your belief, is not photo shopped and computer animated. regarding the picture….wow.
- LPad - Sep 5, 2011 at 12:30 PM
That's because it was taken in 1987. No high-def lenses around then. Also, the whole entire point of the graphics in 2k11/12 or any other sports game is to mimic reality.
- Jecurb - Sep 4, 2011 at 6:42 AM
The pic might be enhanced, but Clyde was definitely holding his own weight during that NBA season and during that dunk contest… either way, very nice picture!
- JackLeone - Sep 4, 2011 at 8:06 AM
Jordan was so good that other players got ignored or flew under the radar. Drexler & Barkley are prime examples of this…
- LPad - Sep 5, 2011 at 12:33 PM
I don't think they were ignored by the fans during that time period. I think that today's media only focuses on MJ when discussing basketball from the past.
- progress2011 - Sep 4, 2011 at 8:15 PM
Valman61….You are showing your lack of historical knowledge of the game. His nickname was " Clyde-The- Glide- Drexler " . Meaning he could glide thru the air, from the free throw line as this " REAL / NOT FAKE " photo shows you.
Blake Griffin jumped over a car that was parked directly under the basket. I'm not saying he's not an impressive player/ jumper. But after watching Dominique, Drexler, Jordan, Gervin and many others that floated from the free throw line, I was left unimpressed. Do a search for Drexler dunks and be impressed !
As I tell all the " new skool " kids, do your research " youngster " before opening your mouth and inserting your foot because thats the definition of a fool !
- vanwalker1 - Sep 5, 2011 at 11:23 AM
Those of us of a certain age not only remember Clyde Drexler's pro career with some fondness, but also his collegiate apprenticeship with Guy Lewis as a University of Houston Cougar.
At the time, the reigning kings of college basketball were Denny Crum's Louisville Cardinals, a/k/a The Doctors of Dunk, led by Darrell Griffith (a skywalker in his own right).
The Houston Cougars countered with Phi Slamma Jamma, led by Glide, a young Hakeem (then misspelled Akeem) Olajuwon, and a lot of really athletic supporting players.
Their game was EPIC. There was about a two minute sequence in the second half where the Cougars literally dunked ten times in a row on Louisville. It was brutal for the Cardinals and it firmly established the Cougars as the premier above-the-rim team in college hoops.
Plus, what a nickname…Phi Slamma Jamma? That's hot…
- 1historian - Nov 16, 2011 at 6:53 AM
How many NCAA titles do the Cougars have?
- vanwalker1 - Sep 5, 2011 at 11:32 AM
Correction – On that Louisville team, it was Milt Wagner and Lancaster "Flash" Gordon, not Darrell Griffith…my bad.
- whiskeyontherox - Sep 6, 2011 at 3:14 PM
This is a great pic! This would've gone great with my ceiling to floor poster of Kareem Abdul Jabar and my poster of George "Ice Man" Gervin (you know the one where he is sitting on the throne of ice).
- drakost - Oct 5, 2011 at 11:57 PM
Imagine the highlights had Portland chosen Jordan instead of Sam Bowie.
- purnellmeagrejr - Oct 21, 2011 at 7:27 AM
I can do that.
- purpwalk - Dec 9, 2011 at 12:28 AM
clyde was smoooov
- ancientcougar - Dec 17, 2011 at 10:31 AM
Why didn't Guy V get into the hall of fame?
- beaverdam21 - Dec 31, 2011 at 5:53 PM
That game was considered the national championship until Houston ran into NC State…Many people said it was the greatest exhibition of inner city basketball ever…Guy despite having some great athletes did not get into HOF because as one commentator once somewhat rudely put it he couldn't coach a fish how to swim.

COLUMBIA CITY — At the bottom of the seventh, the tying run was on base.
That's how close Columbia City's baseball team came to beating Carroll Thursday night and securing at least a share of the Northeast Hoosier Conference title.
The Eagles lost the one-run contest, 7-6, at home. They took their first in-conference loss, as they fell to 5-1 in the NHC and 9-5 overall.
A light drizzle fell throughout the game, making for less than ideal playing conditions.
COLUMBIA CITY — Columbia City's golf team dropped to a whole new low Thursday night — and not the bad kind.
The Eagles were determined to even out their Northeast Hoosier Conference record, topping New Haven by an impressive 148-200 score — the lowest score Columbia City has posted this season — and in the last 10 years.
"That kind of score will get you anywhere," Columbia City Head Coach Andrew Thompson said, alluding that a 148 could advance nearly any team to the state finals. "I think some people will see this score and start to notice us.
"That's just tremendous golf."
COLUMBIA CITY — Columbia City's girls track team hosted, and fell, to Huntington North Thursday night.
The Lady Eagles dropped the meet 89-43, but Columbia City Head Coach Bob Fahl said there were several high-points on the night.
Carlee Hearld jumped a personal record, 5 feet, 6 inches, then went for the school record.
The current record, set by Indiana University graduate Ashley Rhoades approximately five years ago, is 5 feet, 7 inches.
Hearld attempted a leap of 5-7.5, but wasn't able to clear the bar.
Several other tracksters had personal records Thursday.
INDIANAPOLIS — Regardless of problems that caused students to be kicked offline and see frozen screens instead of their ISTEP tests, students shouldn't expect to go back to No. 2 pencils and bubble sheets when taking standardized tests.
Online testing lets schools get results back weeks faster than with paper-and-pencil exams. That means teachers are able to see earlier what lessons students do and don't understand and have more time to adjust their lessons.
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana troopers plan to crack down on motorists and truck drivers who drive aggressively around each other.
The Indiana State Police say they'll participate in a federal program aimed at such aggressive driving starting Sunday.
The Motor Carrier Safety Administration program is aimed at reducing the number of crashes involving commercial motor vehicles and passenger cars and will run through June 8.
DHAKA, Bangladesh (AP) — A seamstress buried in the wreckage of a collapsed garment factory building for 17 days was rescued Friday, a miraculous moment set against a scene of unimaginable horror, where the death toll shot past 1,000.
Reshma survived, in remarkably good shape, by eating dried food that was in her area and drinking spare amounts of water with her.
She was discovered on the second floor of the eight-story Rana Plaza building, where crews have been focused on recovering bodies, not rescuing survivors, for much of the past two weeks.
NEW HAVEN (AP) — Authorities say a woman and young boy were rescued from a burning second-floor apartment in a complex near Fort Wayne.
Emergency crews were called to the Cameron Court Apartments in New Haven about 2:30 a.m. Friday. New Haven police Sgt. Brent Bolinger tells area media that flames were shooting from a front window when he arrived and the woman lowered the boy to him from a back window.
LARWILL — Whitko Middle School will recognize student successes at its annual awards program.
The ceremony will be held Tuesday, May 21, at 7 p.m. in the school's gymnasium. Students will be applauded for attendance, academic team participation and various accomplishments.
"Please plan to join our staff in recognizing our students' 2012-13 accomplishments," said school leaders.
WMS is located at 710 Ind. 5 in Larwill and can be contacted at 327-3603.
Epsilon Chapter's Chorus recently performed at Laud Christian Church for a group of ladies representing area churches.
Songs included "The Prayer Perfect," "Praise the Lord for Everything," "Thanks Be to God," "Simple Gifts," and " It's a Grand Night for Singing."
The chorus is under the direction of Evelyn Zumbrun (in front). Myra Schmidt accompanied.
Front row, from left: Janelle Smith, Kris Richey, Evelyn Zumbrun and Carol Burkett. Back row, from left: Mary Helfrich, DiAnna Weiss, Rosemary Steiner, Jerilyn Geiger and Nancy Fries.
Khale Rider, an eighth-grade student at Indian Springs Middle School, speaks at the "anti-slave rally" held by the school's five U.S. History classes.
Students had the chance to speak in roles as abolitionists.
The event allowed students to study and learn more about slavery in the 1800s. See more photos in the May 10 issue of The Post and Mail.

Another switcher here. Got both an RT and GSA in the garage now. The RT is for sale on the boards. I happen to think the RT ('05 to '09) is the sexiest bike on the road. '10 on...puleez a step backward with those gawdawful reservoirs poking outta the handlebars.
I thought I was weird for not 'fitting onto the RT' as some tall riders get on fine with them but being 6'2", my knees took a beating too. It does have soul....just can't tolerate that soul for too long.
My '09 GSA is more utilitarian and I came to the conclusion that it's what I need to do what I want to do....get off-pavement. Pros-Cons? You gotta figure out what you want to do and get the bike to do it. I know the throngs of GS riders that have road tires and keep it there (previous owner of mine stayed on road); good for them. As usual, YMMV!

Had a '98 RT that I put almost 100k miles on. Great bike. Never hiccuped with just regular maintenance. Can't say I ever rode 110mph all day long though?
Also have an '07 GT. Plenty of days in the 80-90mph range for a while across the west but 110? Again.
That being said my GSA gets the majority of my attention now. It rides well. Is a hell of a lot more comfy. I really don't miss the extra hp too much. It has plenty for 99% of situations. I thought cruise control would be an issue but really with a throttle lock and wrist rocker thingy it's a non issue. A set of Gerbings makes the heated seat a non issue too.
I would tell you that if hard fast riding is that important to you than the GSA is NOT the bike for you. Trust me. I learned the hard way that it's no GT. It'll do 85% of what the GT will...and 90% of the RT. The other 10-15% can be an expensive lesson. DOH!
