More than two years ago, Alice Boland stood at the front gate of Ashley Hall and started muttering to herself.
She asked questions about the children who attended the private school in downtown Charleston, according to a police report released Wednesday. She inquired particularly about the 5-year-olds, but she didn't explain why.
She was told never to come back.
But on Monday, the 28-year-old Beaufort woman with a history of mental illness did come back. And this time she came with a pistol she had bought at a gun shop days before, police said. She pointed it at a school administrator and a teacher as 50 students milled outside, and she squeezed the trigger — again and again, police said.
The magazine of the palm-size .22-caliber pistol was loaded with eight rounds, but she didn't have a round in the chamber. It didn't fire.
She thought it was defective, but it wasn't. The gun was fully functional, police said.
"We are extremely fortunate," said Dickie Schweers, a Charleston County councilman whose wife, a school director, was an intended target.
As loved ones of people involved with the close call continued to express relief Wednesday, Charleston police released new details indicating that Boland had purchased the gun legally, but that she also could face federal firearms charges.
The school told parents in an email Wednesday that they would receive information today detailing school security procedures already in place. Spokeswoman Catherine Newman could not be reached for comment Wednesday, despite repeated requests.
Gun purchase
Boland's only past arrest was on a misdemeanor assault and battery charge the month before she first showed up at Ashley Hall in 2010. She has no criminal convictions.
Her family said she is mentally ill. Under federal law, some mental illnesses would prevent a buyer from acquiring a gun, but the data would be accessible only if it were part of a felony record that pops up on a background check.
Beyond that FBI inquiry, a person's mental competence to purchase a gun would hinge on the buyer's honesty.
Before buying the gun, Boland would have been required to answer a federal questionnaire that asks whether she had been committed to an institution or been determined by a legal authority, such as a court, to be "mentally defective."
A copy of that "transaction record" was found in Boland's sport-utility vehicle, according to police. Her answer to the question was unknown, as was the extent of her mental illness.
Police spokesman Charles Francis said that the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives also is investigating the case, and that releasing further details would be unwise.
Police withheld information about where and when Boland bought the gun. In a statement, the police department said it is committed to releasing information when "people are in danger."
"Our responsibility also requires that the information that we release is accurate and not premature," it said.
Receipt for pistol
After Boland's arrest Monday, she told police officers that she had parked her SUV outside her "old psych doctor's office," according to a report. Police found it outside the Charleston Health Center at 200 Rutledge Ave., which houses a Planned Parenthood location.
In the GMC they reported finding a receipt for Boland's Taurus PT22, a semi-automatic pistol that fits snugly in the palm of your hand, as well as a manual and keys to the gun's locking mechanism.
The documentation featured her name. Blacked out from the report was information included on a business card. Unknown is whether the card identified the gun retailer.
Boland remains jailed in lieu of a $900,000 bail. She faces charges of attempted murder, pointing a firearm, unlawfully carrying a firearm and possessing a firearm during the commission of a violent crime.
She has not yet hired an attorney.
A telephone call placed to her home Wednesday was answered by a man who said, "That's not in our hands now."
On Sept. 30, 2010, Boland was issued a criminal trespassing notice when Ashley Hall staff members reported that her behavior was making them uneasy.
The ponytailed woman was first spotted talking to herself. Officer Patrick French, who responded to the staffers' complaint, later reported that she asked how many children attended the school.
Boland told the officer that she had no children there; she was simply interested in the facility, according to French's report that documents the "field contact."
"School staff have never seen her before," the report stated, "and (they) confirmed that she did not have any kids attending nor was she picking anyone up."
Call to 911
When she returned around 3 p.m. Monday, Boland started walking back and forth on the sidewalk at 172 Rutledge Ave.
She wore a pink winter coat and green shoes, and she carried a red-and-black bag.
"She's been pacing outside for about 30 minutes," a parent told a 911 dispatcher. "I heard her say something about being Jewish and people against her faith."
At some point, police said, she pulled out the handgun.
Authorities said she first tried to shoot Mary Schweers, the director of the upper school. When the gun didn't fire, Boland pointed it at teacher Chris Hughes, police said.
Teachers and schoolchildren scattered. Parents and administrators called 911.
"There's a lady out in our car- pool," a school employee said in a nonchalant voice.
Her tone abruptly changed.
"And she's got a gun!" the caller said. "Dear God, send someone quick. The girls are just running back in right now."
School workers noticed the gun's daintiness and theorized that it could be a toy.
But they couldn't be sure, so they and their students took cover.

Jesse Jackson Jr. claims the iPad is killing American jobs! [video]
Jesse Jackson Jr. is pointing the finger firmly in the direction of Apple and Steve Jobs, claiming they are responsible for killing American jobs.
It's simple: Because everyone can download books and newspapers, everyone who works at bookstores (he notes Borders going out of business) or the publishing industry, or for textbooks, will lose their jobs to the people making iPads in China.
It seems Jesse Jackson Jr. hasn't taken into account the amount of jobs Apple has created in many other business areas. Take a look at the video after the break. Then make sure you pop back here and let us know what you think in the comments!

Jesse Jackson Jr. claims the iPad is killing American jobs! [video]
Actually, the private sector union rate sits at approximately right under 7 percent. This percentage of the labor force has been declining slowly over the 50 years. So based on your flawed logic jobs should flooding into the U.S. since union influence on market wage rates continues to weaken.
So if anything your way of thinking is just as unrealistic and irrational. POT meet KETTLE.
Labor unions created better work condition for the American worker. It did make products more expensive, but the trade-off was good for the American society.
In China there are no labor unions, just terrible wages, 12 hour work days, no vacations, and no holydays. Is this a good thing? Would you be willing to work in China?
In the end America gets low priced products, but at what cost? Would you prefer a $1000 iPad and a 2% unemployment rate or a $500 iPad and a 8,8% rate? China has a 4.1% unemployment rate, down from 4.3% last year. Would any american be willing to work for $300 a month? That's typical Foxconn wage.
Everybody is focusing on the iPad reference and not on the underlaying message he was trying to convey, that the continuing quest for low prices is making America export jobs to China.
I think almost everybody actually agrees with him, but is bashing the guy only because he chose an Apple product as example. The point is not the change in the publishing industry, but where the jobs went. When the airlines finished the "horse and buggy industry", Boeing and McDonnell Douglas got the jobs. When gadgets killed the publishing industry, China got the jobs.
I used to think he was the sane one in the family... epic fail
New technology makes old technology obsolete, and that includes all jobs that are associated with it, but it creates new jobs in the process. Now it's either we progress or stagnate. It seems Jesse Jr. and several others here are for stagnation. I and many others, however, are for prosperity!
Ya, but he's saying those new jobs created in the process are not in the USA...
If he really wants to complain about overseas jobs, he needs to attach the button-makers....98% of all buttons used in American clothing is from China... What about our button-makers? what will they do now?
Im surprised he hasnt been shot yet, and really to put the blame on Apple, if it was that big of an issue. dont buy it. But I love my Apple and will continue to support it, even if im a homeless bum, I will have my ipad and iphone and apple tv :-)
Won't do you any good as a homeless bum. 1. Nowhere to charge your devices. 2. What good is an Apple TV without an actual TV?
Last I checked bus/train stations have accessible power outlets... come to think of it the library also... so even a bum (or hobo) can charge their devices! "they" just have to remember to keep their charger.
Although I applaud anyone standing up for American jobs, this gentleman sounds a bit like a Luddite in claims that the "paper" based job industry is being severely hampered due solely to the iPad. It really seems he has an axe to grind w/ Steve Jobs due to Jobs' success, but I don't believe the iPad is the curse of America in terms of jobs, even if it has blessed China!
Aren't we trying to go paperless. He wonders why we think freedom fighters talk too much.
All he's doing is trying to blame steve jobs for something thats not his fault. What about the kindle, what about the nook. This really wasn't well thought out these companies aren't doing anything wrong they're improving our daily lives or atleast trying too with this paperless innovation. What he government should is charge outsourcing companies a high tax every fiscal year so they don't outsource jobs and keep them on our soil.
Well, the book industry killed the parchment industry...
Predictable response. He does not know the top commandment:
Thou shall not let loose from thy tongue words of blasphemy against thy lord Steve nor any fruity devices which the Tree of Cupertino bears or thou will be smitten with the wrath of the Followers of Jobs in all corners of the internet.
He is an idiot!
Actually everyone on this blog, the editors and the commenters are idiots.
Real Clear Politics is actually not that clear, it's a conservative leaning political site and this is a political posting to make him look bad, not an analysis of his entire speech. And you all fell for it.
Let's keep politics off this blog and not get suckered into partisan politics please.
So he wants me as a student to continue to pay over $150 for ONE book?
No thanks. I'm sure he wipes himself with $100s everytime he uses the bathroom but for me as a poor college student, if the ipad had the same book but cheaper price, where does he expect I go?
I think you're missing the context of what he was saying. He was just using the iPad as an example of change going on. He wasn't saying the iPad is 'evil' or anything - he started out by saying he bought one!
I think his point was that there is change going on in the economy that is naturally leading to job losses (happens with any automation or outsourcing) and the government hasn't been doing a good job at stimulating innovation elsewhere in order to try and make up for those job losses. It just wasn't a particularly strong example and of course everyone is going with the Luddite angle.
+1000. He himself said he bought an iPad lol
...and people wonder why the country is in the condition it's in!!! Wow!! Let's see.. 1. The Federal Reserve prints money out of thin air and loans it to the US with interest. 2. The Federal Reserve artificially keeps interest rates low, hence creates housing bubble and collapse. 3. The financial system then on the verge of collapse starting with getting the country into unwinnable wars. 4.The Federal Reserve loans out Trillions and Trillions of dollars (from printed money) bailing out all their Wall street friends. 5.Unemployment out of control from Federal Reserve greedy criminal actions. 6.States and Country becomes bankrupt. 7. LET'S BLAME STEVE JOBS AND THE IPAD FOR UNEMPLOYMENT!!!!!! NICE!!!
I agree with MrC, but what jesse's saying is bad is actualy what should happen. If we move away from harmful paper, and become more efficient, then we'll have more time to innovate, therefore creating new industries, andcadvancing, therefore creating more jobs.
Again...the issue being, most of the jobs we are creating by our 'innovation' are overseas. Which I am sure China is very thankful for.
At no point did he say that the move toward electronic reading was bad, he was simply saying that it's happening. Most of the commentors here have allowed the erroneous wording of the title to frame their perception of what the congressman is saying.
Apparently he forgot to point out the huge number of jobs apple continues to expand and provide, and the fact that borders has been in decline long before the ipad or other devices like it. Just like a leftist to try to put the blame on a industry and hope government will come to the rescue.
Well if you feel that way I hope your an employee and not a business owner. Please feel free to leave the counyry to find better employees...
Wow. Those are some nice presentation materials. He must have had them delivered with the Pony Express hot off the Gutenberg.
Pony Express fell to the telegraph. Borders fell to Kindle (not Apple, dumass).
Instead of printing a book, how's about one learn to write an app? Like and app that allows idiots to surmise their own errata.
Democrats are idiots.
It's called obsolescence, this happens all the time. New things replace old things, that's how our society works. Why would anyone want a bookshelf filled with books when they can have a tablet that can hold more books than a library? Why would anyone want to wait a week to read a news story when they can read it right then and there on their computer?
Years ago, people made buggy whips. And you can bet that the last company to make buggy whips made the best one you ever saw. But the things is, those companies are dead, there were going to die when someone made a carriage that could run on it's own power. Everything meets and end, computers will one day be replaced by tablets and that's coming in the next few years.
Might as well blame the computer for killing the typewriter or blame Netflix for killing Blockbuster. Borders, and Blockbuster for that matter, are going under because they failed to adapt to new and evolving technology. They're going under because of their own arrogance, thinking that streaming media or ebooks wouldn't take off like they did and therefore they were left behind and spread out their resources too thin to try to keep up.
Jesse Jackson, both of them, are morons. They have no idea what they're talking about, they have no idea how things work and if things were left up to people like them, we would still be in the stone-age. If we tuned back time, they would say the same thing when computers were replacing typewriters, or that cars were replacing horse and carriages. In fact, let's go way back in time, they would say that the printing press was killing the jobs of the people who had to write books. No matter what, these morons would have something to say about something.
Is this way Steve Jobs was on medical leave? the ipad killed him?
He is correct, it is hurting jobs but at the same time it is the company's fault they have not moved or changed with time. As technology advances, so should your company and focus. It is now 2011, if you are still operating your business as if it is 1950 you will go under.
Well, actually, it's called Globalization, and that includes not only markets and capitals, but jobs as well...
Problem is more closely related to lack of overpopulation policies and bad politicians across the ponds and is a direct result of the unfair richness distribution caused by the colonialist drive that lasted 5 centuries...
My three cents.
Perhaps if we didn't live in a Nanny state with cradle-to-grave entitlements, there would be more of an incentive for Americans to work for a wage that makes American manufacturing competitve in a global economy. As long as it is more profitable (and easier) for individuals to stay at home and collect a government check, many will do just that.
Sent from my iPad
Does Jesse Jackson Jr. also agree that deploying troops on one end of the island of Guam will tip it over. He seems to have gone to the same school as the famous House member who was worried about that happening.
Didn't we loose a lot of street cleaner jobs when the Automobile replaced the horse. No more horse dung to clean up from the roads. To bad Jesse wasn't around back then to save all those dung cleaners jobs. Maybe when he looses his house job he should apply to clean up horse dung from roads, he seems to be qualified to fling that type of stuff around. (I am trying to be politically correct in describing these jobs since we are dealing with politicians)
DEY TUK ER JERBS (they took our jobs)!!!!! <---South Park Reference
Does anyone else find it extremely ironic that this is the very same guy who just a few weeks ago wanted the US Government to amend the constitution and make it possible to give each and every student an iPad…?!?
The same one who a few weeks ago claimed "These devices are revolutionizing our country — and they will fundamentally alter how we will educate our children."
Check it out: http://bit.ly/gD4sY6
He states that he bought one himself near the beginning of the video.
Blame iPad for destroying jobs? In that case, I also blame Nook, kindle and any other e-reader for killing jobs. While I'm at it, blame iTunes, Napster, Zune Marketplace and Amazon for destroying jobs in the music industry, blame netflix for taking jobs in the movie rental arena, Hulu for cable TV.
You know what... just blame the internets! You can't download ANYTHING without the internet! Darn you internet!
Stupidity runs in the family. How about people without US birth certificates are destroying jobs for Americans?
This is a bad blog post. The erroneous title and clear misunderstanding of what Mr. Jackson was saying (or maybe none of you actually watched it lol) has led to a lot of ignorance being spewed. Stick to apple fanboyism TiPB. thumbs down
Well, he's not lying. Apple is supposedly investing into a new Foxconn factory in Brazil. Could have been in Georgia, California, Texas, or some state in the US.
I disagree. People will see the frustration of the limited selection the iBook store has. Also, most prefer an actual book in their hand or at least I do. I dont do my reading of book on my iPhone nor iPad. Why, battery, other usage. You have the display on wasting battery plus, I know people use these devices for other uses. I plus, the books are sometimes twice as much. Apple will never replace the need for the ancient old necessity, that is books
Ag - I hit this article when searching for info on why the iBookstore is missing so many necessary titles because of your comment. Interesting. You were right about about one thing, but i am going to have to disagree with almost everything else. Have you considered the amount of energy it takes to make one book? The electricity and machines used in making a book plus the raw materials and shipping amounts to the consumption of far more resources than charging your iPad to read a book. I understand the nostalgia of reading a book and I believe there will always be a market for print like there is for vinyl records today, I have large collections of both... But the digital sales of books will continue to increase, second hand specialty bookstores will stay in business and large brick and mortar stores will close their doors. Goodbye book sellers, hello content and merchandising managers, developers and tech support :)
I think this guy is kind of out of line blaming ipads for the un-employment rate in the US, times change, before we were making cars with our bare hands now about 95% of a car is made by machine. And also that whole bit about china is a little ridiculous too, as americans id say probably about 80 to 90 % of our household products are made in a foreign country including the vehicles we drive.. I feel that this country is in bad shape because of suit wearing millionaires that blame iPads for job loss and un-employment... hahaha... Makes me laugh.
chris i do not disagree with you but please learn to back up your statements... when you say "JJ Jr. hasn't taken into account the amount of jobs Apple has created in many other business areas" you need to support that by listing 1 or a few examples.
When the printing press was invented, scribes had to find new jobs too.
The question for America is if jobs are really wanted. There is a whole world now competing for jobs, and international companies, are, well, international. The other option is to try to ride entitlements and fake money until it all runs out and the real bubble pops. So far, it looks like the latter. The US govt is running over-budget by like $50k / second and the idiots (in both parties) are arguing over whether they are going to cut like 0.25% or 1-2% of their spending. How about we cut enough so we're not over budget? How about we cut enough and tax enough more so that actually paying off the debt? Sheesh!
And religion is killing American people.
Hush mode.
OMG what about the poor horseshoe and buggy whip makers? These new fangled motor vehicles will put them all out of business and their employees will never find jobs.
This is the wort kind of pollital rhetoric, but if you mention a hot tech product in your speech you are sure to see it on more channels than C-SPAN.
Uh... the dude is using Trajan on poster boards... who does he think he is, Moses with the Ten Commandments?!
And what becomes of publishing companies? The publishing companies that rewrite history, make 20lb books, and make minor, MINOR tweaks just so they can release a new edition to screw everyone out of even more money?? I guess he never suffered a back injury because he lugged around four or five textbooks to and from school everyday for 10 years.
Not to get too political here, but don't most Dems (Tree Huggers) want us to save the rain forest and quit using so much paper?
Oh, that's right, they want us to keep all the workers employed but quit printing also. That way they have their cake and can eat it too!
Why does he think people need Congress to give them jobs? Are people incapable now of finding interviews on their own, developing skills that employers want, and making their own way in the world? This concept of having Americans so dependent on government is just sickening.

Local cosmetics firm MakeMeMakeup launches first appWritten by Duane Ramsey | | firstname.lastname@example.com
A local startup company, MakeMeMakeup, founded by Tresha Heath, recently launched its first iPhone app.
MakeMeMakeup is a customized makeup service that allows users to design personalized cosmetics using a smartphone application.
"We started with the iPhone now and hope to add apps for the iPad, Android and other Web-based applications later this spring and summer," Heath said.
Heath said the app is free and allows customers to design a custom lip gloss for $20, which includes all shipping and handling costs.
"We started with lip gloss since we knew it would be the most popular and plan to add more products such as lipstick, cream blush and a full line of cosmetics," she said.
Heath started her company to bring custom-blended cosmetics to the mass market, primarily targeting women age 25-50. The firm has surpassed $30,000 in actual sales and continues to see significant growth, she said.
MakeMeMakeup won first place and a prize of $2,500 in the first Pitch & Pour business competition for startups held by the University of Toledo Business Incubation Program in May 2013.
Heath said the company used that prize money to purchase stock and operating materials for the business, adding that UT has facilitated additional funds for branding and marketing of the firm's products.
Toledo-based North Design did a great job of designing a logo and website for MakeMeMakeup, Heath said. North is an advertising and new media agency specializing in the creation of branding, marketing, and communication tools.
Originally from Perrysburg, Heath worked as a celebrity makeup artist for 20 years in Chicago, Miami, New York and Los Angeles. She and her husband, Blaine Graboyes, recently returned to the Toledo area for his job.
Heath is currently the sole owner of the business but said she will actively seek investments through Series A funding during the next 12 months.
Heath said she will use the money raised for trademark work, doing market research through UT, launching additional apps and opening a kiosk in Toledo this summer. The plan is to open additional kiosks in various regions of the country based on the market research results.
The Mix
Heath and MakeMeMakeup participated in The Mix: Black + White fundraising event for The Arts Commission on March 15 at the retail level at One SeaGate. The firm was one of numerous vendors that sold its products to raise funds for The Arts Commission.
Health said she sold nearly $500 worth of custom cosmetics at the event with a good portion of that amount going to The Arts Commission.
"We raised $32,000 so it was a successful and fun event for us," said Jennifer Jarrett, deputy director of The Arts Commission.
The Mix featured a silent auction of fine art by local artists, a mini workshop by local artist Mary Gagnier, a raffle, a selection of gourmet cuisine from the area's top chefs representing 14 restaurants and an evening of live music and entertainment.
About 450 patrons and 100 volunteers attended the evening event, Jarrett said.

I have always loved Kiera Knightly, and her old world beauty. I especially love her newest look, and was able to get the low down on how to recreate her hairstyle.
For this month's Marie Claire cover, Keira Knightly was styled by Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Fashion & Celebrity Stylist Ben Skervin.
THE LOOK: A roughed up, simplistic bed head style with soft, natural looking elements. The face framing layers and fresh look had a rock 'n' roll edge that complemented her cool and modern style. Here's how Ben suggests getting this look:
1. First start out by prepping wet hair with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Boost & Lift Foaming Air Mousse for lightweight volume.
2. Rough dry hair, using fingers to give texture and make hair appear less finished.
3. Part hair on the side. Then take a small amount of Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Color Gloss Crème and scrunch into the ends of the hair, creating soft waves and a textured finish.
4. Finish the look with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Extra Firm Hold Hairspray to hold the style in place.

Believe it or not, since the very beginning of this great republic there have been those who have desired to transfer as much power as possible from the states and individuals to federal politicians and judges. Starting all the way back to Hamilton's unconstitutional bank where he made the argument to Washington that the new federal government had the authority to regulate the economy, making the bank constitutional, when in fact no such authority existed. Washington then consulted Jefferson about the bank idea. Jefferson stated that the bank was not an enumerated power, nor was it necessary and proper to carry out any of the enumerated powers, so therefore was unconstitutional. Jefferson's understanding of the constitution was spot on, while Hamilton's was wrought with amnesia for he had completely forgotten all about that war of independence thing a few years earlier and the reasons for it.
It's very, very disturbing to me to hear so-called constitutional thinkers talk about the constitution in such haphazard and even reckless ways. They, just like those before them have turned the constitution into a mishmash of mangled words where up means down and left means right. They have reduced the constitution to a handful of meaningless phrases that completely distort the meaning of various parts of the constitution. Phrases such as the "general welfare " clause, which is not a clause about general welfare, but instead a clause about taxation, how they are raised and what they can be spent on. Another distortion is the term "necessary and proper" also known as the "elastic" clause. which many seem to think this clause is there as some kind of catch-all. This clause, however only allows congress to do those things that are necessary and proper to carry into action powers that are listed in the constitution such as purchasing battle ships for the navy. The navy is a listed power, but buying battleships is not. Another famous distortion is the "supremecy clause" and the notion that all federal laws are supreme…….this could not be further from the truth. Two very important words that are never mentioned in the abbreviated version are "pursuant to". In order for any federal law to be the supreme law of the land, it must be made pursuant to the constitution, which means it must be constitutional.
Another "Supreme" distortion is the doctrine of incorporation by which it has been contrived that the Bill of Rights applies not only to the federal government, but state and local governments, public schools and anything else the courts wish to apply them to. The United States Constitution applies only as described therein, and the state constitutions apply to the state governments and the other government entities such as counties, cities, and towns.
The United States Constitution does not require a law degree to understand, although it does require several readings and some research. The only correct reading of the Constitution is a literal reading for it actually requires very little "interpretation." A literal reading of it, however, presents one major problem to those with devious motives toward it. It will give them few, to no avenues for such efforts.
God save the United States Constitution!!!!

CRESTVIEW — Against the backdrop of a Crestview High School gym decorated in pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Night, Kathy Combest raised her hands in victory before the first point was played in Monday's volleyball match between Crestview and visiting Freeport.
The home Crestview Bulldogs would go on to beat the visiting Freeport Bulldogs in straight sets, but volleyball took a backseat to a celebration of life.
Combest has been breast cancer-free for five years. She wanted to celebrate her milestone and that of other women who have fought and won the battle with the deadly disease while honoring women who have breast cancer or have died from it.
Combest was joined in her celebration by her family, friends from across the Baker and Crestview communities, and her surgeon, Dr. Sandra Hanson of Fort Walton Beach. Holt Volunteer Fire Department members also were on hand to sell T-shirts with the words, "strength, courage and perseverance" on the back to help raise money to fight breast cancer.
"That fight right there (against breast cancer) is tough," she said. For me to be able to come back and to still do what I love to do — coach — is a blessing for me.
It was no accident that Freeport was Monday's opponent. Combest was coaching at Baker when she was diagnosed with cancer. She said on her team's first trip to Freeport after she was told she had the disease Freeport coach Tina Knight and her team supported her with flowers and T-shirts
"Her (Knight's) whole team was just devastated by what I was having to go through and it was so supportive," Combest said. "I wanted her to be here for my five years because she was her for my beginning (of the battle with cancer)."
Hanson said she was honored that Combest had chosen her Breast Cancer Charity Fund to receive the money raised from the night's T-shirt sales and donations.
She said today's technology is making breast cancer more and more curable — but that cure comes with a price.
Scotty Chestnut of the Holt Volunteer Fire Department said the department members were happy to honor Combest for all of her years teaching and coaching at Baker before moving to coach at Crestview.
"You had generations that she coached and the lives that she touched throughout the (Baker) community, and there is no way to really put it into words," he said. "She influenced girls in the right way and changed their lives.
"And now she's over here at Crestview, and I believe she will do the same thing. It's an honor to us to be able to help her in the cause (of fighting breast cancer)."

The Lady Mocs swept Middle Tennessee 7-0, snapping a 13-match losing streak to the Blue Raiders. UTC had not beaten MTSU since an 8-1 victory in 1999. Tonight's win gives Chattanooga a 3-0 start to the spring dual season for the second year in a row, while Middle Tennessee drops to 1-3.
"We always seem to have a really good battle with them," stated Jeff Clark, who is now two wins shy of 100 for his career as head coach of the Lady Mocs. "A lot of the matches in previous years were pretty close but haven't gone our way. The girls were confident tonight and we knew if we played like we were capable of, we would get the win."
There have been a number of close calls in this series, including last year's 4-3 loss. Despite the sweep, this one was another tightly contested bout that could have gone either way.
Both teams split the first two doubles matches, leaving the No. 3 contest between UTC junior Alexa Flynn (Memphis, Tenn.) and freshman Katie Polk (Woodstock, Ga.) and MTSU's Flavia Nagayama and Alexandra Torres as the decider for the first point.
Even at 7-7, the MTSU pair grabbed a quick 3-1 lead in the tiebreaker. Flynn and Polk responded by rattling off six straight points to take the win and give UTC a 1-0 advantage.
Last year, UTC swept the doubles play and won the first set in five matches, before losing 4-3. The Lady Mocs again went up a set in five singles matches tonight, but were able to keep the momentum going for the win.
"The score does not indicate how tight the match was," added Clark. "We had to go to a tiebreaker to win the doubles and then jumped on them in singles. We didn't let up. We didn't let them back in the match like we did last year. They have some fighters on their team, but we just had to stick with the game plan."
Sophomore Claire Mulyadi (Semarang, Indonesia) was first off the court with a speedy (6-0, 6-0) win at No. 6 over Alexandra Torres. Freshman Kelsey Coots (Huntsville, Ala.) gave UTC a 3-0 lead with her (6-1, 6-3) win over Nayara Moraes at No. 5. Coots avenged a (6-4, 7-6) loss to Moraes at the ITA Regionals in the fall.
It was fitting that the clinching point came from Jenna Nurik (Roswell, Ga.), the lone senior on the team and the Lady Mocs No. 1 player. Nurik defeated Yuiri Nomoto (6-2, 6-4) to give UTC a 4-0 lead and seal the team victory.
"It was great," said Nurik when asked about getting the clinching point. "I really couldn't ask for anything more. At the end, I was racing Kaylene to get there first."
Sophomore Kaylene Chadwell (Franklin, Tenn.) was next off with a (6-3, 6-3) win over Irina Constantinide at No. 2. Freshman Kayla Jones (Memphis, Tenn.) won in three sets at No. 3 while junior Alexa Flynn (Memphis, Tenn.) finished the sweep with a win at No. 4.
"It is a big win, especially for this team," added Nurik. "Last year, we lost a close one to them, so as a team moving forward it was good to get this one. We can definitely build on this and get some confidence for the rest of the season."
Chattanooga travels to Lipscomb for a 7:00 p.m. (E.S.T.) dual match at the Richland Country Club in Nashville, Tenn. The Lady Mocs are back at home next weekend, hosting Austin Peay on Friday, Feb. 8 at 6:00 p.m. at the Hixson Racquet.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iranian officials on Monday dismissed the Oscar-winning film "Argo" as pro-CIA, anti-Iran propaganda, but some young, moderate Iranians welcomed it as a fresh view of recent history.
The movie, based on the escape of six American hostages from the besieged U.S. Embassy in Tehran in 1979, has not been screened in any Iranian theaters.
But many Iranians have seen it nevertheless. In downtown Tehran, bootleg DVDs of "Argo" sell for about 30,000 rials, or less than $1.
The movie has set off a spirited debate that exposed a generational divide.
Iranians who took part in the 1979 Islamic Revolution picked apart the portrayals of Tehran at the time. But those too young to recall the events had a different view.
"I want to know what the other side is saying," said Shieda, a 21-year-old University of Tehran student, who gave only her first name for fear of a possible backlash for speaking with foreign media.
Tehran City Council member Masoomeh Ebtekar – who was one of the students who occupied the U.S. Embassy and acted as the spokeswoman for the captors – says the film exaggerates the violence among crowds that stormed the compound in November 1979.
Fifty-two Americans were held hostage for 444 days, but a handful of Embassy staff were sheltered by the Canadian ambassador.
Their escape, using a fake movie as a cover story, is recounted in "Argo."
Ebtekar insists the hostage-takers were mostly students. But other accounts suggest militants and members of the country's powerful Revolutionary Guard were involved.
Iranian Culture Minister Mohammad Hosseini criticized the film.
"The movie is an anti-Iran film. It is not a valuable film from the artistic point of view. It won the prize by resorting to extended advertisement and investment," he said, according to the official IRNA news agency.
He said Hollywood has "distorted history" as part of what Iranian officials call a "soft war."
Iran's state TV called the movie "an advertisement for the CIA."
The semiofficial Mehr news agency called the Oscar "politically motivated" because first lady Michelle Obama at the White House joined Jack Nicholson via video link to Los Angeles to help present the best picture prize.
In contrast, retired teacher Reza Abbasi who saw the Revolution first hand, said the film was realistic.
"I know Hollywood usually changes reality to make it attractive for movie lovers, but more or less it was close to the realities then."
Others said "Argo" shows the need for Iranian filmmakers to deal more with issues from the Revolution.
The moderate Hamshahri newspaper said the movie "targeted the culture and civilization of Iran," but it is worthwhile for Iranians to see a different perspective of the events that led to the collapse of relations between the U.S. and Iran.
"Iranian audiences are seeing a new version of the events for the first time," said a commentary in the newspaper. "This has been a weak point for our TV and cinema industry, which has not produced anything about the (U.S. Embassy takeover) after more than three decades."
Behnam Farahani , 28, a student in Tehran Art University said, he thought competing films "Django" and "Lincoln" were better than "Argo" in terms of structure and theme.
"They deserved more attention. Argo was just a political movie, it was a narration of a political event."
Mohammad Amin Sharifi, a movie fan in Tehran, was less harsh.
"In my opinion, it's a nice movie from technical aspects, and it was on the scale of Hollywood movies. But I don't think it was worth a nomination for Oscar and other awards," he said.
Iran's state-run film industry boycotted this year's Oscars in the wake of an Internet video clip made in the U.S. denigrating the Prophet Muhammad that set off protests across the Muslim world.
The affair was not related to "Argo."
Last year, Iranian director Asghar Farhadi won the Oscar for best foreign film for "A Separation," Iran's first Oscar.
A month before it won, Iranian authorities ordered the closure of the House of Cinema, an independent film group that operated for 20 years and counted Iran's top filmmakers, including Farhadi, among its members.

Stockman: 'Grab free donuts and coffee before Obama grabs your gun!'
Rep. Steve Stockman is trying to lure hill staffers to hear a talk on guns with an interesting pitch:
"Grab free donuts and coffee before Obama grabs your gun!"
The Texas Republican's office sent out the note Thursday in advance of the Monday session in the Capitol entitled "The Fallacy of Gun Free School Zones."
Speakers include a California law enforcement officer and Larry Pratt, the head of Gun Owners of America. Pratt recently appeared on Piers Morgan's CNN show.
"Come hear Officer Young explain how Gun Free School Zones endanger our children," the invitation sent to Capitol Hill offices reads.
Obama's proposal to overhaul gun laws does not include a mass roundup of guns.

I really believe that people like Bill Murray or John Belushi are just as great and just as valid as Robert De Niro or Al Pacino. And I don't think you can say One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) is a better movie than Animal House (1978); they're different genres. I think they're both examples of great craftsmanship.

This would be a great great fight.
Mousasi has good chances of winning this one.
Not only brazilians can do this stuff
Try beating a top 10 middleweight first Mousasi.
His last opponent is lucky to be put in the top 30 at LHW.
Though, this is just an attempt at career advancement that noone can blame him for.

MW isn't empty for once. Mousasi would be better off at LHW... but then again... there is Jones. There will be an opening for a title shot if Mousasi wins against 2 top 10s.
He also holds a KO victory over Jacare when he was easily a top 10 fighter.
But yes, as you said earlier, no Jones at MW.

I hope this isn't too big, because it's awesome.
There has been less worthy challengers in the MW division, but that was when MW was a desolate field of bones that Silva ruled over.
Vitor's in a weird spot matchup-wise, because other than Consta and MAYBE Kennedy, most top tier MWs are already matched up or coming off losses(Belcher, Boetsch)and for me, Jacare/Okami feels like a closer fight to #1 Contendership than any fight with Mousasi at the moment would. Moving forward, I think that a matchup between winner of Okami/Jacare vs. Vitor works.
That said, if Vitor insists on fighting in Brazil and/or doesn't make himself accessible to fighting stateside and Mousasi is willing to take the fight now, in Brazil and happens to win, I think that's a mighty bold statement to make at MW.
Too bad Anderson Silva already has a matchup.

The 27-year-old full-back was one of five French players signed by the Magpies in January - along with Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa, Yoan Gouffran, Massadio Haidara and Moussa Sissoko - to help them fight against relegation.
However, the club continued to struggle and only secured their Premier League survival in the penultimate round of fixtures, while there were also rumours of splits within the camp.
Debuchy told the Northern Echo: "There is nothing broken, there is nothing like that.
"Since January, I have never read the English press, so I do not know, but in France, they must surely talk. They will say, 'Newcastle signed many [French players] and there are no results'.
"But now I hope we have a good foundation for next season with a strong group in place."
Debuchy moved to St James' Park from Lille and admits it took some time for him to adjust to the physical demands of the Premier League but says he has no regrets over making the switch.
"Since January, I have discovered many things and I really have no regrets about coming to Newcastle," added the France international. "When we arrived, me and the other new signings knew that Newcastle were not in a good situation.
"Yo [team-mate Yohan Cabaye] explained to me that here, all the matches are tough. I've realised that quickly. There was the Europa League, which took a lot of energy, even though we are not going to hide behind that.
"Physically, it is a big step for the French between the two leagues. You have to be prepared. I felt it from my first matches. It is full on from the beginning to the end, so we knew it would be tough to the end. Well, it has been."

Shopping for Bassinets & Playards is an important responsibility. Both make perfect napping spots for a new baby, but also each have their own distinct advantages. Some families choose to buy one of each, while others opt for one or the other. Whatever you choose to buy, make sure it is from a reputable company and meets all of today's revised safety standards. Below are some other shopping tips, so you can rest assured you are getting the best quality for your money.
Before you purchase anything, first determine where your baby is going to sleep. Traditionally, many families have their babies in a bassinet by the bedside for the first few months, and then transition them into a crib in their own room. Playards can be used for nap times, but a bassinet can also be used for these day sleep periods as well. Your pediatrician may be able to offer some great advice on where your baby will sleep best, based upon his special personality and individual needs. You will also want to take your family dynamic into account. If you have pets, you'll need to make sure baby is somewhere where a dog or cat cannot jump into the sleep area or tip over a piece of furniture where baby is laying. Cats especially are able to leap into bassinets and playards, so ensure you place baby in a safe sleeping spot.
Next, think about what your feeding schedule and routine looks like. If you are breastfeeding, you'll want baby close beside you for extra convenience. In this case, a bassinet will work best, as they are smaller and more pleasing to the eyes in terms of overall decor. Bassinets also often have wheels on them, which allow for easy transport from room to room. A moses basket is another spin on the classic bassinet, and this can easily be moved around the house by using its convenient handles.
If you decide on a bassinet, measure the space available for one in your bedroom, as well as any common areas where baby may sleep. Then buy accordingly. The same goes for a playard, especially since these tend to be on the larger side and may look great as a floor sample in a baby store, but end up being an unfortunate inconvenience once at home. Next, check for safety features. Wheels should lock and any covers should fold back easily. If purchasing a playard, make sure the netting is small enough to prevent any tangled little fingers.
Lastly, pay close attention to the mattress. It should be firm enough that baby doesn't easily sink down into it, risking SIDS and other related baby health hazards. If your little one is prone to allergies, consider an organic cotton mattress that will easily fit into your bassinet while cutting down on common home allergens. Whatever mattress you choose to buy, be sure to get advice from your pediatrician or hospital nurse, to ensure it is safe and appropriate for your baby.
Bassinets & playards add a lot to a baby's home, as they will always have their own special spot to sleep and play, giving them comfort and you a chance to catch up on all you have to get done while the newest member of your family is napping away!

Vargo Titanium Flint Lighter
A great lightweight and dependable fire starting tool that takes up hardly any space and works in any weather. The flint is readily replaceable, making this a good long term investment. From Vargo Outdoors: A trusty Titanium tool which gives a dependable spark even in the worst conditions. This spark lighter even works after being doused with water, this is a great choice if you want a reliable way of lighting a stove whilst still being super lightweight.

Zippo Windproof Lighter
Old reliable — it's been in pockets all over the world in all situations for nearly a century. Zippo's wick lighters, the 'windproof' lighters, have been used around the world since the 1930s. The design has hardly changed, aside from updating materials, in all that time. Parts from a 1940s zippo will fit into a modern day Zippo. I carried WWII era Zippo for over a decade and the only time it let me down was when I forgot to fill it. I currently have a modern production Zippo and it's just as… Full review
Insta-Fire Fire Starter is product that did not live up to its claims. This user was provided a package of Insta-Fire that was suppose to light up to four fires. However, I was unable to light even one in wet conditions. Let me start by saying my fire building skills are probably less than PillowThread's. That is why my rating is so different from his. Let me go back to the beginning... I wouldn't call my neighbor Carrie a "groupie," but she sure loves to bring me stuff to try in the outdoors. Full review
Ultimate Survival Technologies Delta Shockproof Lighter
I bought it new. Upon receiving, my wife washed it when she put the pants into the washer without checking the pockets. The cap was locked and the safety lock was on. When I realized it got soaked inside the washer, I took a look at the butane chamber. There was dampness inside and I left the lighter three consecutive days inside the house without closing the lid. The dampness disappeared at the end. I then read the specification and kind of understood the high quality butane requirement. A friend… Full review
Exotac FireRod
A high quality fire starter tool. FIRE -- Oh Oh!! No matter how light I try to get in my pack weight, there are two things that I always keep three of: water treatment and fire starting. Call me paranoid. Anyway, along with a mini-Bic in my pack hip belt and waterproof matches in my first aid kit, I keep this little nifty tool from Exotac. It's called the fireRod — a ferrocerium fire starter (which is similar to flint/steel, but a bit easier to use and is the "flint" found in butane lighters). Full review
SOLKOA Fastfire Fire Starting Kit
A good fire kit for anyone who may need to light a fire—camper, backpacker, hunter, or stranded traveler—especially under adverse conditions. Just familiarize yourself with the limits of the hacksaw striker, which gouges the ferro rod badly and struggles to cast sparks in the rain. SOLKOA Fastfire Fire Starting Kit Note: The following review is a bit involved; please use the following outline to expedite locating information of interest to you. I. Product Specifications II.

Mautz Fire Ribbon
Instant fire in a tube. Mautz Fire Ribbon is a naptha paste in a tube (translate that to napalm). While it can actually be used to cook with, the odor would be somewhat displeasing. My main use for the product is for priming my gasoline stoves, especially if I need to use them in a tent. The paste is easy to place in the spirit cup of the stove, and it burns hot without the typical flaring that occurs with gasoline priming. On the package Mautz advertises the Fire Ribbon will "light wet wood". Full review
Ultimate Survival Technologies StrikeForce
This is one of the best fire starters I have ever owned. The shower of sparks that are emitted is amazing and if the tinder you are using is flammable it will light. This fire starter is ideal for survival, outdoor/adverse fire starting conditions I highly recommend this fire starter to anyone who spends time outside and is building fires or practicing survival skills. I am a true believer in the UST StrikeForce fire starter. The ferrocerium rod and striker bar emit by far one the best shower of… Full review
Doan Magnesium Fire Starting Tool
Great product, magnesium is easy to shave from the bar and the flint is attached solidly. All in all a great product to have in your kit. Burns white hot as it should. Mix this with some waxed jute or other tinder and even in miserable conditions you should get a fire started. Make sure you have something to strike the flint with and something that will collect a quarter sized pile of magnesium in and you're good to go. If this is your first time using a mag bar practice in the backyard before you… Full review

DOBSON — Rockford Elementary School third-grade students have had a virtual classroom trip to Japan this past week thanks to the relationship between an exchange student and her hosts.
Exchange student Kiyoe Tanimora became friends with Rockford Elementary third-grade teacher Michelle Porterfield and White Plains Assistant Principal Amber Flippen when she attended class at Surry Central High School from 1996-2000 as the guest of Porterfield's parents, Teresa and Kent Hall.
Tanimora surprised Porterfield later by coming back for her wedding. This Saturday it will be Porterfield's turn as she is present in Japan for Tanimora's wedding ceremony. She has been in Japan since last Friday and is expected to return Monday.
Rockford Elementary Principal Dana Thomas explained Porterfield was open to her students from the beginning about her fear of flying (she'd never been on a plane before), as well as planning the trip.
Thomas said Porterfield has created interactive discussions, posted pictures and set up a virtual field trip by calling the school using Skype, a software application that allows users to make calls over the Internet. Students have been able to use the Haiku software on the Surry County School System websites to send Porterfield questions from school or home.
Haiku is a grade K-12 online learning management system and features collaborative activities and allows parents access to student learning and progress. She said Porterfield has talked about what areas in the country hit by a tsunami look like as well as clothing, cars, maps of where she is in Japan and diagrams of planes, trains, other types of transportation and weather.
"The coolest thing is Michelle has set up this virtual field trip for her students," said media specialist Kristi Carlton. "This is real life. This is global awareness for them (the students)."
Immediately before the Skype call was made and projected on a SmartBoard at the front of the classroom, students offered their comments on what they have learned. They talked about how hamburgers in Japan have teriyaki sauce on them, the most popular thing in McDonald's restaurants in Japan are the pancakes, and there are egg Mcmuffins as well in Japan's McDonald's.
Thomas said initially, students felt anxiety about Porterfield leaving. The amount of excited questions and hands raised proved that was no longer the case.
"This has all been wonderful for the children," added Thomas. "Michelle met with parents and brought them into this as well as her class. I hope many of the students will use this as a springboard into learning more about Japanese culture and other things as well."
Third-grader Selena Martinez asked Porterfield about the weather. She said there had been periods of rain followed by snow, hail storms and then sunny weather with temperatures around 55 degrees Fahrenheit. Classmate Blake Stanley asked about what kind of trees Japan has. He was told there are persimmon, apple and many bonsai trees. Porterfield also told the students Japan has rice fields like they have tobacco fields.
Cristian Urquiza asked if the Japanese celebrate April Fool's Day. Porterfield told him they don't. She said other American holidays such as Thanksgiving and July 4th are not celebrated either. She said New Year's Eve is a big holiday for the Japanese.
Thomas and substitute teacher Crystal Myers said the entire third-grade staff has really come together to make the project run smoothly and be supportive of Porterfield, who is a self-described picky eater.
"I ate squid today," offered Porterfield. She and Flippen explained that squid gets bigger when it is cooked. They also said that rice and miso soup were eaten with every meal. They said rice and miso are as important to the Japanese as biscuits are to Americans.
Third-grader Maggie Parker said she and her classmates started with one page of questions for Porterfield, but that quickly grew to three pages.
"I've learned that malls in Japan have five or six floors," recounted Parker. "Their burgers aren't like our burgers and they have rice with every meal. I'd never thought about Japan until Mrs. Porterfield decided to go there. We were all so excited because we knew it was going to be really good to do this."
Parker said she also has learned to use her sister Kathryne's laptop to send questions and see pictures Porterfield had posted online using Haiku.
Not all of the information from Japan has been upbeat. Thomas said earlier in the week Porterfield visited a school in an area hard hit by the tsunami in 2011.
"It's heartbreaking, in the areas damaged by the tsunami, the schools have not yet recovered," concluded Thomas. "Overall, this has been positive. I'm excited about how with this technology these kids can go anywhere in the world."

Amelia Holliday — Staff Reporter
August 26, 2013
HAZARD—Barely a week after fundraising began for their assistant football coach, the $2,500 goal set by Hazard High School students and staff has been well exceeded thanks, in part, to a sizable donation from one of their biggest rivals.
"Perry Central come and said we want to order 200 and some shirts. That's a huge order, since we only had 316 kids at the high school. I mean, that really bumped us up really quick," Happy Mobelini, Hazard High School principal, said.
Earlier this month, assistant football coach and Hazard High School social studies teacher Chuck Fugate was diagnosed with leukemia, causing his students, coworkers, and community to reach out to help him and his family. The high school printed T-shirts sporting "Just Win Coach" on the front and "Fight Like a Bulldog" on the back in support of the coach with all proceeds going directly to his family.
On Friday, Perry Central High School students and staff were able to buy similar shirts to support Fugate.
Allison Jett, a teacher at Perry Central, said she got the idea after seeing a news story about what Fugate's school was doing to help him.
"On our way to school I was talking to my kids … and I thought, well, if one of us was sick how cool would it be not to just see one school do it (wear the T-shirts) but to see other schools step in and help," Jett said.
Jett explained she had planned to have her and her family simply buy and wear the T-shirts that were already printed in Hazard colors; however, after speaking with Neal Feltner, the principal at Perry Central, a plan for new T-shirts was conceived.
Feltner said after speaking to Jett he contacted Mobelini, who suggested changing the colors on the shirt to red and the wording to better fit a Perry Central student.
"Happy had the idea of, well, we'll put the Commodores things on there and our students will be more likely to buy them or buy more of them, I guess," Feltner said. "Our staff'll wear them, students will buy them, whatever we can do to help the cause for Coach Fugate."
Feltner said the school bought over 200 shirts reading "Fight Like a Commodore" for all the athletics teams and teachers at the high school, with more available for students to buy.
"At a time like this we all need to pull together," Feltner said.
At the opening game of this year's football season Friday night, a table was set up to sell the shirts to those attending the game. Perry Central Head Football Coach Justin Haddix said every member of his team would wear a shirt to support the coach.
"This is more important than any ballgame or rivalry or anything like that," Haddix said. "I know Chuck and the coaches there … we just thought it was a good thing for them and it wasn't anything about getting media attention or anything, we just wanted to do something to help support him."
Mobelini said Hazard High School had a goal of $2,500 set for fundraising for Fugate, but after taking only a week to surpass it, he said the school is reaching out to the community for donations to match the original goal.
"We're going to try to get people to help us match the $2,500 to see how fast we can double it," he said. "That's good for our little high school to be able to raise that much in a week."
Mobelini said although he has not been able to visit Fugate recently due to his treatments, he has been able to speak to him.
"He's getting a good report. He's in good spirits. He says to thank everybody," he said.
Jett said whether the colors and wording on the shirts had been changed or not she believes the school would have shown just as much support for Fugate.
"It's not about Bulldogs and Commodores, or blue and gold, red and black. It's about this guy's life," Jett said.

I have been making the Dulaan Hat for a couple of years and just found the link on Ravelry. Using size 10 1/2 needles and a ball of Lambs Pride Bulky, you can knit that hat in an hour. With the remaining yarn I make thumbless mittens joined by an i-cord. The i-cord was my favorite on my kids mittens. Heck. I wish they would still let me put i-cords on their mittens. I can't stand searching for lost mittens.
And there was baking. Chocolate n' Cream cookies from April '09 everyday food. Anyone else try those? I had to double the amount of butter in the cookies and the cream filling. Well worth it. We devoured those and now have to make more.
