The spirit of the Virginia Creeper Train is alive and well in a diorama presented by the Ashe County Museum, and Ramona Renfroe, the museum's director, said the exhibit is getting noticed state-wide.
"The amount of detail in this is just phenomenal (in the diorama)," said Renfroe.
The diorama shows both the Virginia Creeper's path through the county and its path through history. The diorama begins in the Tuckerdale community circa late 1920's, and shows the train's path winding through Lansing (1930's), the Devil's Stairs, West Jefferson (1940's and 50's) and ending in Elkland, which is now known as Todd.
"The railroad really opened this area up; it made a whole lot of difference," said Betty Eller, a staff member at the museum.
"West Jefferson wasn't a town before the train came in," said Eller. "Elkland was the big town."
What makes this diorama stand out is its meticulous attention to detail. Every character in the diorama tells some kind of story about everyday life in Ashe County during the Creeper's hay-day. Elderly men are playing checkers, women are gardening and washing clothes, some men are hunting or fishing, and children are playing baseball or flying kites.
In one scene in the diorama, a young boy is kicking a ball while adults are killing hogs in the background. This may not seem very significant on the surface, but Renfroe said this scene has an intriguing real-life story behind it.
The character in the diorama represents a young version of Tony Padgett, who told Renfroe he was always thrilled when the adults killed hogs, because he and his friends were given balls to play with. It turns out, the balls given to the children were actually inflated pig bladders from the hog killing, a make-shift toy for local youth.
"This really tells a lot about the time period," said Renroe.
The diorama also manages to explain several aspects of Ashe County's history that younger generations may not be aware of. For instance, Parker Tie Company was started by the Parker family, and their feature product was railroad ties, hence the name: Parker Tie.
The diorama also features several humorous scenes, like a man using an out-house and opening the door; he needed light so he could see to read a book.
This exhibit has entertained visitors since it opened in December, 2011. The diorama was constructed completely by volunteers, who devoted one night per week for about two years to this project.
"Every Thursday morning, the first thing we did was check the diorama to see what had been added to it," said Renfroe.
According to Renfroe, the diorama took at least 6,000 hours to complete, but Renfroe believes the real figure is closer to 15,000 hours because volunteers would often take their projects home to add finishing touches.
These volunteers didn't ask for anything in return, but they did "immortalize" themselves in the diorama by placing their names on tombstones in a burial scene.
Renfroe said each town is built to scale using measurements and old photographs. Also, several the buildings had to be custom made to fit the diorama.
Each tree in the diorama was hand-made using tumbleweed and other substances, and the water was made using epoxy glue.
The diorama does require some maintenance from the staff. According to Renfroe, the main priority is keeping the train's wheels clean and the track clean.
Renfroe said she has considered getting a covering for the diorama to prevent dust from scattering onto the track. She also said the museum plans on adding LED lights to their exhibit, because the halogen and fluorescent lights used in the exhibit produce UV light that will eventually fade the colors of the diorama.

Assessment is commonly used to measure learning achievements as well as to enhance, guide, and inform both learning and teaching, and motivate the learning process. Critical, but often disregarded, is the context in which assessment is placed. This generic unit examines forms of assessment used in education and training, how these are administered (including technological-supported means of assessment), by whom and for what purposes, and the features of assessment that characterise exemplary practice.
Using resources presented in a variety of media, participants will examine the theory that underpins:
- assessment as measurement;
- assessment as guidance and learning enhancement; and
- the selection of assessment tools and processes that are contextually relevant.
Two pieces of assessment, each worth 50% and approximately 3000 words, will be negotiated around the two major focuses of the unit:
- the theoretical underpinnings of exemplary assessment and its application in context;
- a critique of the practice of assessment.

text: CHARLESTON U.S. Attorney Booth Goodwin announced that a Boone County man was sentenced to eight years and one month in federal prison followed by 15 years of supervised release for receiving child pornography. Daniel C. Runion, 27, of Seth, previously pleaded guilty in June. Runion admitted that on July 29, 2011, he used his computer and a file sharing program to knowingly receive via the Internet, child pornography, that is, images and videos of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct, including actual or simulated sexual intercourse and the lascivious exhibition of the genitals and pubic area of the minors. Runion admitted that he received and transported the images and videos of the minors while at a residence in Seth. Runion further admitted that he knew the images and videos constituted child pornography, investigators said.The investigation revealed that Runion knowingly possessed more than 600 images and videos on his computer depicting minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct. Some of the images have been identified as known children. The Boone County Sheriffs Department, the Nitro Police Department, the Kanawha County Sheriffs Department, the Charleston Police Department, the West Virginia Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force and the Federal Bureau of Investigation West Virginia Cyber Crimes Task force conducted the investigation. Assistant United States Attorney Lisa Johnston handled the prosecution. The sentenced was imposed by United States District Judge John T. Copenhaver, Jr. This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse. Led by the United States Attorneys' Offices and the Criminal Division's Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals, who sexually exploit children, and to identify and rescue victims.

Trio of antique shops thrives on Adams Street in UpTownWritten by Brigitta Burks | News Editor | email@example.com
Whether it be a wooden table or a vintage dress, antique-lovers can likely find whatever they desire inside the triangle of antique stores on Adams Street.
Adams Street Antiques & Art and J. Valentine Antiques opened in November followed by Great Finds on Adams in February. All three are located on the 1500 block of Adams Street. Rather than view each other as competition, the owners said the other locations provide more selection for customers.
"They feel that it's beneficial. They call it clustering when shoppers come to a district and they can't find an item in one store, [owners] can send the customer down the street," said Julie Champa, executive director of the UpTown Association.
The three stores also contribute to the growing economy of Adams Street located in UpTown Toledo. "The antique stores add to the vibrancy of the neighborhoods. We think that antique stores are a really good fit for the types of businesses that we're looking to attract," Champa added of the community with about 1,000 residents and restaurants like Manos and Manhattan's.
Adams Street Antiques & Art
"I just love this shop. I never thought I would. I thought it would be fun, but I didn't realize how much I would enjoy coming in every day," said Connie Hoffmann, owner of Adams Street Antiques & Art.
Hoffmann used to manage the now closed Erie Street Market, formerly a popular place for antiques. Now many of the former Erie vendors have found a home in her store or at Great Finds on Adams, owned by Julie Hopfer and Lacey Fix. Hopfer and Fix were also vendors at Erie Street Market.
Adams Street Antiques is the largest of the three stores and houses 14 vendors. Hoffmann is one of those vendors and specializes in vintage wares, shabby chic items and glassware.
"I've always loved antiques and I've always been a collector and I've always been interested in them," she said.
Hoffmann encouraged Hopfer and Fix to open their own store across the street after receiving word that Erie Street was closing in early 2012. Hopfer was one of the first vendors in Hoffmann's store and Fix had worked closely with Hoffmann at Erie Street.
"I was overall manager, but she was my gal on the spot," Hoffmann said of Fix, who is also a vendor at Hoffmann's store.
This kind of camaraderie is typical among all four owners and each encourages shoppers to try the other shops. "We'd like to have it be a destination. Antiquers like to go from one to the other and we make sure that they do … or we suggest it," Hoffmann said with a laugh.
Hoffmann also makes sure her customers are never bored. She changes the window display every month (June's theme is brides and summer), serves coffee and tea and keeps her merchandise selection fresh.
"We have people that come in every week because we change our merchandise often or if we don't get new things, we change the layout so there's always new things to look at," Hoffmann said.
Despite the tough economy, Hoffmann said business has been good.
"When things are like they are now people tend to buy antiques because they get nostalgic and they come in and see something that their grandmother had and they buy it for their children or they buy it for themselves," she said.
Great Finds on Adams
Fix and Hopfer are quick to praise their Adams Street locale and its nearness to the two other stores.
"This corner is a fantastic corner so to leave this corner would be nuts," Hopfer said. "You name it we'll have it … or we know someone that already has it."
"If people can't find it here, we tell them to go [to Adams Street Antiques] or go two doors down (J. Valentine)," Fix added.
Antiques have been a lifelong interest for Fix. "My mother collected art all my life and I was raised around antiques so it's always been an interest," she said.
Hopfer's introduction to antiques was a little different. In her work in the floral market, "I started displaying certain items I would make on old items and notice that [customers] always wanted to buy the old items, too," she said.
Great Finds has 12 vendors all with their own personality, including herself and Fix, Hopfer said.
"Here we just have everything; everything but the kitchen sink and that, too," she said. "We have a lady that's shabby chic; we have another lady that loves the '50s and '60s and the retro stuff and my husband likes the architectural stuff; [Lacey] dabbles in everything."
"Shot glasses to chandeliers," Fix chimed in.
J. Valentine Antiques
James Valentine, owner of J. Valentine, didn't always want to sell antiques — he originally went to school to be a veterinarian. But, one day when he was out walking his dog, he stopped to help a man struggling to carry a dresser. Valentine began working for the man, delivering the furniture, and fell in love with the items.
Now his store, the only of the three without other regular vendors, specializes decorative arts and large furniture, specifically mid-century Danish furniture.
"I have a small shop and that gives me the ability to talk to customers about each item because I know the history of each one," he said.
Valentine, who used to manage Wildwood Antiques Center, decided to get his own space because "I figured I was outgrowing my basement."
He didn't know Hoffmann was renting the space across the street when he signed the lease, but the coincidence seems to have worked out and the two opened their stores together on Nov. 11, 2011.
"With antique stores, you really can't compete with each other. You could go over there and spend hours. You could come over here and spend hours and you would never see the same thing," he said.
Despite having larger items than the other two stores, most items in Valentine's store are under $600.
"In Toledo, we are the bottom of the barrel in prices. My high prices are considered bottom of the barrel anywhere else," he said.
"People think that buying antiques is so expensive, but it's really not. It's actually cheaper than buying new and new stuff doesn't last too long," the Detroit native added.
Adams Street Antiques & Art is at 1500 Adams St., Toledo. Store hours are 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday.
Great Finds on Adams is at 1501 Adams St., Toledo. Store hours are 12-7 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday.
J. Valentine Antiques is at 1505 Adams St., Toledo. Store hours are 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday.

Spooked: Web series brings Australian actor visibilityWritten by Jeff McGinnis | | firstname.lastname@example.com
We meet them as they arrive on the scene of their first case, a pesky poltergeist haunting the suburban home of a pair of newlyweds. The five members of the team pile out of a repurposed Winnebago, looking less like Mulder and Scully (or even the Ghostbusters) than like a group of college pals on some wild vacation. On the side of their ride is written the group's name: Paranormal Investigation Team. The acronym, one assumes, was unintentional.
"They are the cheapest team money can buy and it kind of shows," said actor Julian Curtis in an interview with Toledo Free Press.
Curtis is the lead of this ragtag group of ghost catchers in "Spooked," the new Internet series airing on Hulu and the YouTube-based Geek and Sundry network. The half-hour comedy — executive produced by Bryan Singer and Felicia Day — debuted June 4.
Connor, Curtis' character, is not just the leader but in many ways the emotional center of the show's story, he noted.
"He walks this fine line between being a people-pleaser and being an authoritarian," Curtis said. "The latter is not a good fit for him and he ends up causing more upset despite his best intentions. His protective bond with his sister — an aspect of the story our director Richard Martin was very focused on — gives the show 'weight' and — dare I use the cliché — 'heart' to the show."
Don't get the wrong ide. This is no heavy drama.
Rather, its flat-out comedy, with supernatural silliness sprinkled throughout the show's four-episode run. It's said that getting laughs is harder than creating drama, but drama gets the awards because when comedy works, it looks easy. Curtis argued that might actually be getting even truer these days.
"I do believe comedy is harder in modern film and TV. Back in the day — even in the '90s — we had longer takes, used traditional and pricey film, etc. I feel this gave the actor more incentive to come 100 percent prepared. Now, it's a little more casual with digital technology and I don't think it's in a good way. Post-production can save a bad performance too, but in comedy, it's trickier to fake that stuff."
For Curtis, a native Australian who is just beginning to get a foothold in American film, getting a role on a pretty prominent Web series surrounded by established talent — Neil Grayston of "Eureka," Ashley Johnson of "The Last of Us" — might seem like a lot of pressure, especially when he plays such a central role. But Curtis didn't have much time to ruminate on such things.
"You know, I came on only two days before production so there wasn't really any time to overthink it in that way," he said. "I just jumped in and hoped for the best. I probably never worried about it because everyone around me was so great and the crew and production team were so brilliant."
The series was filmed in a sprint of creativity last November. While in lesser hands the frenetic pace of the production might have derailed the combination of scares and humor the series aims for, Curtis again credits the professionalism of the crew — particularly director Martin — for keeping the show on track.
"It was certainly fast and furious. Although, for whatever reason, I never felt stressed. [Martin] has a calming influence as a director, which is a pretty special gift particularly with how demanding the schedule is. The schedule was more like a feature film than a TV series. We would jump back and forth between the four episodes based on location rather than the chronology of the story. It was such a fun, dynamic set and we've all become genuine friends. We are definitely eager to return and play together again."
Indeed, that's the main sense one gets from "Spooked" and its leading man — the feeling of shared joy at something that was genuinely fun to put together. And an overriding desire to share it once more.
"I hope people love it as much as we do. Then we can make more. I think they will. Paranormal comedy is definitely not a new thing but there is a freshness here that I think may strike a chord."

The Valley Arts Foundation (VAF) is extremely excited about our future because this year was such a great success. The Valley is anticipating the last weekend of activities that brings to a close the 15th annual Vermont Festival of the Arts.
What a festival it has been! Visitor counts have surpassed any year to date and the accolades keep pouring in. Artist Peter Huntoon of Middleton Springs says of the Plein Air Paint-Out, "What a great day! I will be back next year!"
Local resident Nannette McCoy told us, "Despite decades in The Valley, this was my first Taste and I enjoyed every morsel of it!" Susan Klein of the Mad River Valley Chamber of Commerce reported that visitors at the chamber (office) keep mentioning they are here specifically for the festival.
The Big Red Barn Art Show, one of the many anchor events, had already hosted by mid-August, 1,944 guests (33 states and 12 countries as well as from 43 Vermont towns) and sold 30 paintings helping 16 local artists support their creativity.
Prior years' favorite events remain popular while many new events proved to be hugely successful. Mother Nature could not dampen the community picnic (complete with fireworks!) sponsored by the National Life Group at Lareau Farm.
The weather was perfect for the Great Vermont Plein Air Paint-Out which brought hoards of visitors to our community. Waitsfield and the Paint-Out have received attention of PleinAir magazine (look for the link at our website: www.vermontartfest.com). The Paint Out will continue to grow both in size and quality, eventually becoming a two-day festival within the Festival of the Arts.
We believe that arts are part of The Valley's community identity. The foundation has been growing and developing a presence year-round, including a permanent office for our operations and the Festival Gallery presenting both invitational and private showings of artistic work.
The VAF is proud to be the organizer of the new Green Mountain Watercolor Exhibition, which debuted this past spring in the Festival Gallery. Starting in 2013, the foundation is partnering with Lareau Farm and an anonymous donor to present this dynamic show in the Big Red Barn during the month of July.
As we garner support, the show will, by 2015, become the "Green Mountain National Watercolor Exhibition" bringing the best of watercolors from across the U.S. as well as Canada.
We would like to thank you for your support and encouragement of all of the foundation activities, including the festival. As the one-year anniversary of Irene passes, we are proud to be part of what makes this community a vibrant place to live. We have all experienced the difficulties of this past year and we hope you agree that this year's festival has helped revitalize us.
Currently we are entertaining ideas and formulating plans of how we can develop activities and events to keep the arts more active throughout the year. Already in place is the Historic Waitsfield Art Walk Map designating the galleries, outdoor sculpture and studios in Waitsfield. Developed with the assistance of Resort Guides, the map is available free of charge. Additionally, the foundation has begun curating art shows for local establishments.
As we grow, we need your continued support. We thank those people and organizations that have helped us this past year. We have received an outpouring of help from local residents and visitors as volunteers to run many of the events at this year's Festival.
We look forward to you being a part of our future. Stop by the gallery to see an exhibit. Submit art events to the VAF online arts calendar. Bid on a bench. Attend the many and varied arts activities that take place in our Valley. Art is what keeps us as a community vibrant and inspired!

I put away a small stash of ramen noodles the other day. You know, the cheap imported ones in the plastic packs.
Yesterday I got one out and it had gone moldy. So had the others.
Morals: check your food supplies occasionally, and it's a good idea to rotate stock. I'd forgotten that some things have a limited storage life, so I can't just stuff a box in the closet and forget about it. You need to have your stash reasonably close to your kitchen, so you can shift old and new stock as needed.
The proper thing to do would be to appropriate one or more of the kitchen cabinets for this purpose, but my wife has already filled them with her "good" dishes we never get to use, and crap neither of us will eat, but she refuses to discard.
Even the best-laid plans fall short of the reality of life-as-we-know-it...

Attorney for Illinois Citizens for Clean Air & Water.
How much more regulation is the EPA going to add to Companies in Illinois. Between 66% increase in income tax, how much longer are the people in Illinois going to be able to buy food. Are you and the (EPA) calling for a $1.00 tax on milk like obama zars is asking for on a gallon of gas, so obama motors can sell Volts and other cracker boxes the American People don't want. How about the new quality for obama motors 50,000 new cads recalled, so much for American car companies 100,000 miles warranty.
Glad Rep. Chuck Johnson believes in Clean Water & Air.
The Clean Water Funding Fairness Bill, if enacted, will direct the Illinois EPA (IEPA) to establish an annual pollution permit fee for CAFOs, to cover the agency's costs to issue permits and properly administer the CAFO Clean Water program.

About the DJs of Jump to It!
For more than 20 years, the multi-talented MC Lyte has been a creative force in the world of hip-hop and beyond. Born in Brooklyn, New York, MC Lyte's debut full-length, Lyte as a Rock, was released in 1988 and her follow-up, Eyes On This, arrived in 1989, containing the Number One rap hit "Cha Cha Cha." She is a two time Grammy nominee, earning one in 1993 for her song "Ruffneck" (from 1993's Ain't No Other album)and a second in 2003 with the song "Ride 'Wit Me." Lyte continued to record through the 1990s, teaming with artists such as Missy Elliott and LL Cool J. Today, Lyte is the executive vice president and music supervisor of DuBose Music Group/DuBose Entertainment. She is an in-demand lecturer, traveling to colleges and universities across the nation to share her story of success, which also provided the framework for her book, Just My Take. In recent years, she's added DJ to her resumé, spinning at major events, and she is also the official DJ for Jordan brands. In June of 2011 she was named president of the Los Angeles chapter of the Grammy's Recording Academy, the first African-American woman to hold this position.
Youngtown, Ohio–native Mick Boogie is one of America's most in-demand DJ talents. In his formative years, Boogie studiously listened to hip-hop DJs, from the seminal work of DJ Jazzy Jeff, Kid Capri and Stretch Armstrong to the later stylings of DJs Drama and Green Lantern. Boogie's eclectic style defined a series of innovative mixtapes, with 2004's The Big Picture, a collaboration with The Diplomats' Juelz Santana introducing a larger audience to Boogie's singular production. In 2005, he became the Cleveland Cavaliers official DJ (thanks to a ringing endorsement from NBA superstar LeBron James). Boogie has since gone on to work with an impressive list of artists, including Adele, Coldplay, Sean "Diddy" Combs, Common, Eminem, Ghostface Killah, Jay-Z, Nas, Kanye West and more.
DJ O-Dub, aka Oliver Wang, has been writing on soul, funk, Latin and hip-hop since the mid-1990s, both for his world renowned Soul-Sides.com site and also National Public Radio, the Los Angeles Times and Wax Poetics. For ten years, he could be heard on 90.7 FM in Berkeley, CA and most recently, co-hosted the weekly Boogaloo! party at the Shortstop in Echo Park, CA. He works as an assistant professor of sociology at California State University, Long Beach.

In memory of Phil Everly, who passed away in January of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), the 2014 Annual Music Masters will create awareness for the disease, which affects an estimated 24 million individuals in the United States. The progressive lung diseases include emphysema, chronic bronchitis, refractory (non-reversible) asthma, and some forms of bronchiectasis. Despite being the third leading cause of death in the United States, there is very little research funding for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. COPD is a preventable and treatable disease but the lack of research, awareness and education has resulted in millions of unnecessary hospitalizations, complications and even deaths of patients. The COPD Foundation's mission is to prevent and cure COPD and to improve the lives of all people affected by COPD. To make a contribution to the Phil Everly Memorial Fund, visit www.copdfoundation.org/PhilEverlyMemorial.aspx.

After receiving documentation indicating that True North Wilderness requires an Act 250 permit, that it is considered a school by the state of Vermont (and a residential child care facility) and that the Vermont wastewater permit numbers do not match those on the local permit application, the Waitsfield Development Review Board closed the hearings on whether True North can change and permit its uses on 25 acres of land on Dana Hill Road.
The DRB, at a November 9 hearing, heard from Attorney David Grayck,
representing Kinny Perot whose property adjoins the land that True North
uses. That land is owned by Tom Barefoot and Joni Zweig. True North
Wilderness is a therapeutic wilderness program for teens that is run by
their daughter Madhuri Maves and her husband Tyler Maves.
The 25-acre Zweig/Barefoot parcel is located in the ag/res district as well as in the forest reserve district and also abuts the Howe Block of the Camel's Hump State Forest. Most of True North's activities take place on a small parcel of land in the ag/res district. The rest take place in the forest reserve section as well as on adjoining state forest lands.
At issue before the DRB are several items. First, can the use be accommodated under the zoning that affects the ag/res and forest reserve portions of the property? Second, if the uses can be legally permitted under the zoning, do the changes in use pass the conditional use review criteria, which include, among others, not changing the character of the area and not impacting the environment and wildlife?
At the November 9 hearing, True North presented testimony by ecologist Jeffrey Parsons on the environmental impacts of True North's activities, specifically on the impacts of a proposed alternative tent platform site. True North has two tent platforms and two yomes as well as two composting toilets. Participants camp in tents, on the platforms and in the yomes.
Parsons told the DRB that True North's activities had an adverse impact on wildlife and the environment but said that he could not state that that impact was an undue adverse impact.
After Parsons presented his testimony, the board, the applicant and Grayck discussed ideas about moving the tent platforms and camping sites to various other locations on the 25 acres, without coming to any final agreement.
During a discussion of moving one tent platform and composting toilet, Madhuri Maves noted that moving the composting toilet could be expensive, costing several thousand dollars. That prompted Grayck to note that the composting toilets and camping sites were constructed before permits were acquired and said that in fairness to his client, the cost of moving the toilets should not be a consideration in an "after the fact permitting situation."
"That's irrelevant," responded Claudine Safar, attorney for True North.
"We meet all the criteria," added Shems.
Grayck also raised the issue of True North being registered by the state of Vermont as a school and asked why the DRB would consider the use as outdoor recreation. Schools are not permitted in either the forest reserve or ag/res districts. Grayck also presented the board with a jurisdictional ruling from Ed Stanak, District 5 coordinator for Act 250, that indicates that the project will require an Act 250 permit. He also presented the state of Vermont wastewater permit for the project which allows for approximately half the number of participants that are currently in the program.
Ron Shems, attorney for Zweig/Barefoot, said that he felt sandbagged by both the new attorney (Perot has previously been represented by Paul Gillies) and the information that Grayck presented.
The DRB closed the public hearing and will issue a written decision within 30 days.

That wasnt aimed at you coz you said nothing of the sort... Some people just act as if her having her boyfriend on set is a crime... Or just hanging out with her boyfriend in general is wrong. Shes said she doesn't care anymore about the paps, shes living her life without them stopping her, meaning shes going to be affectionate because its actually what real couples do... Its not flaunting, it can get annoying yes, but its technically not our business, you dont have to look at it if you dont like it. The paps somewhat make it our business, but if you dont like it, just ignore it. its so simple, you dont have to make assumptions about what shes paying more attention to or live their lives for them.
Imagine living under a microscope, would you really put stress on your relationship/personal happiness and risk it just to avoid what people will think of you over pictures of your daily life?

Wasn't what I meant at all. And please do not make an inaccurate assumption and then do a whole rant about it. I never said she dumped him, go back and re-read the post if you are in doubt.
What I meant and perhaps I did not make that abundantly clear,was, It is obvious Zac and Vanessa ultimately wanted different things from their relationship, as Zac SEEMS to be going down the route of I want to concentrate on my career and keep my private life separate. Vanessa on the other hand seems to be taking another path,which is be public with a relationship and not care who sees it.
Neither of these options are bad.
Vanessa's is just getting the reaction it is as for five years she was in a relationship that was quite private. If she was suddenly to split with A and get back with Zac, we would not be having this discussion,because the PDA would be classed as the cutest thing ever,because it's Zanessa.
Let's be blunt here shall we, fans are NEVER going to like ANYONE Zac or Vanessa date, as it means they are not dating each other. Everyone hated Josh when he was with Vanessa briefly, and now they have split everyone likes him. People seem to forget reality where Zanessa is concerned. They forget in life people break up, I suspect and have said this before, people who comment on this thread have had more than one boyfriend/girlfriend and know what it's like to break up,move on and date someone new.
But where Zanessa is concerned reality does not exist, because Zanessa NEVER existed the way the fans think it did, it was a name for TWO PEOPLE-HUMAN BEINGS, created by the media and embraced by fans as it was shown to them to be true love- it wasn't a perfect fairytale, true love yada yada yada, because if Zanessa was all that the fans thought it was, then Zanessa would still be together.
Now before y'all jump on me I am NOT saying Zac & Vanessa were not in love, because it's obvious they were. But sometimes love is not enough. Zac and Vanessa were teenagers when they entered in to the relationship. They were on a crazy journey together. The journey ended and they both moved on to different things. It's life it happens.
This is my last comment on this thread, as I am sick of it, it's like a cut. It scabs over then you knock it and it bleeds all over again, it is not given time to heal. My point is since 2010, this thread goes round in circles. Peoples opinions are never going to change, all this thread has done since then has turn us all in to hypocrites. It's sickening that this thread is the most active thread on the forum, as it's a complete contradiction of everything this forum is and was.
This thread consistently pries in to Zac's private life, it has in the past at times, even turned on Zac himself. It has disrespected his friends and co-workers. It used to be a friendly place to be this thread, but since the break up it's turned in to a bitter place,and it's horrid to see. Even pic spams for which this was created for do not make any difference because it just makes people sad.
So I wish you all well, and will see you on other threads.

The world's ONLY user-submitted college and fraternity ritual website! See straight guys do very gay acts to get accepted! Real tapes from college parties and fraternity rituals!
Well this looked like a pretty casual game of strip pong, but the chicks kept making up these ridiculous rules and the guys seemed naive enough to play by them. These guys suck at strip pong so they were pretty much all naked in no time. The girls seemed to like the guys touching each others cocks and the guys even seemed not to care too much. When one of them dared the other to suck a dick, well that's when everything really started to get out of hand!

Wrestling is not fake! At least not to Big Hoss who carries around a dented metal chair used on his head during a match. The folding metal weapon was used on his head and he has a nice bump to prove that not all of the show is an act.
The match did not take place in some swanky big-city arena with bright lights and flashy stars televised for all of the world to see. Instead, four flood lights illuminated a ring in the back of Weekend's Pub in Goose Creek where area wrestlers gather twice a month to fight for a couple hundred fans.

An officer clocked a woman going 60 mph in a 45 mph zone early one morning and pulled her over.
He asked for her paperwork and while he waited, the report indicated that he could smell alcohol coming from her person. She produced the paperwork in a timely manner, the report said.
He asked her if she had been drinking and she replied that she had.
She said it was a few cocktails at a nearby bar.
The report said her tongue was thick and her speech was slurred. He asked her to step out of the car and perform some field sobriety tests.
Before they started he asked her again how much she had to drink.
She said she took two mama little yellow pills, one tall beverage, and one short beverage. She said she only drank about a third of the last one.
Then she added that she drank one vodka soda.
They began the tests, but she did not follow the instructions and subsequently failed the tests. On the nine heel walk and turn tests she only took three steps instead of nine, made an improper turn and never touched her heal to any toe. When she was finished with the tests, she proudly told the officer, Im a ballet dancer and thats kind of hard to do.
She did some other tests and did not pass those either, according to the report.
As she was being handcuffed she told the officer that she did not think she was impaired and that the officer should give her a few more tests.
The officer read the woman her rights and she spoke over him saying, if you dont give me a few more tests you going to be screwed in qourt.
The she said, please dont give me a DUI. Please dont. Please dont. Im the coolest chick youll ever meet. I want to go to law school and youre impairing me.
At the station she blew a .16 percent and was taken to jail.

Three months after the launch, Google+ no longer requires invitation and it's available to anyone who has a Google account. "For the past 12 weeks we've been in field trial, and during that time we've listened and learned a great deal. We're nowhere near done, but with the improvements we've made so far we're ready to move from field trial to beta," informs Google.
The service has improved a lot, more quickly than any other Google product ever released. After announcing the public data APIs, Google added support for Hangouts in the Android app and added the option to broadcast a Hangout, but only for a small number of users. "We're starting with a limited number of broadcasters, but any member of the Google+ community can tune in. In fact: we'll be hosting our very first On Air hangout with will.i.am on Wednesday night, September 21. For more information visit will.i.am's profile on Google+."
Hangout has many other features you can preview by clicking "Try Hangouts with extras": screensharing, sketchpad, Google Docs integration and named hangouts "for when you want to join or create a public hangout about a certain topic".
The search box is now more useful because you can use it to find posts from your friends and from other Google+ users. Google also lets you restrict your results to people and save your search.
Google doesn't disclose the number of Google+ users, but a Comscore report from August estimated that "in just one month, Google+ has captured 25 million visitors". It's likely that Google+ has a lot more users today and the number will grow, now that the service no longer requires invitation. Google+ is the first social service launched by Google that's actually successful.
September 20, 2011

Wind: 0 mph
Do people with riparian property have a responsibility to protect those who live downstream? That's the question that the Warren Select Board grappled with this week.
On Tuesday, August 27, the Warren Select Board considered adopting a Fluvial Erosion Hazard Overlay District that would revise the town's land use and development regulations.
The district, which was drawn by the Vermont Agency of Natural Resources (ANR), restricts future development in areas along the Mad River deemed vulnerable to erosion. "It's a geological issue, not a flood issue," Warren Planning Commission chair Craig Klofach said.
According to Friends of the Mad River director Caitrin Maloney, the Fluvial Erosion Hazard Overlay District "is necessary in addition to existing flood regulations and it addresses areas that are vulnerable to erosion as opposed to flooding," she said. "These can be different areas, so simply having flood regulations does not protect our community sufficiently."
By restricting future development, the Fluvial Erosion Hazard Overlay District is designed to protect a town's downstream neighbors from floating structures that have become dislodged due to erosion. Already, Friends of the Mad River helped the town of Waitsfield adopt an overlay district, and the Warren Planning Commission considered its ordinance when fine-tuning their own.
If Warren adopts the planning commission's proposed district ordinance, Klofach estimates that about 100 property owners will be affected. Already, those property owners have been notified about the proposal and have had the opportunity to attend a public forum.
"This eventually affects property value because you cannot build [in the district]," Klofach said, which is a topic of concern to the board.
"I have a difficult time with an individual property owner bearing the burden for the greater good," select board member Matt Groom said, explaining that some people will be losing money from their properties in order to protect others'. "It'd be different if there were a buyout program."
At the same time, however, as the environment changes, "we have to change our historic patterns," select board member Bob Ackland argued. "When do you draw the line and say, don't build anything more in this district, because it has consequences?"
While Warren Village is largely unaffected by the overlay district due to the steep stone walls that line the river, two other important areas are: Sugarbush's snowmaking pond and the Bobbin Mill.
The snowmaking pond "should not be there, technically," Klofach explained, but since it's an existing structure, if the Fluvial Erosion Hazard Overlay District were adopted the ski resort would reserve the right to rebuild the pond if it were damaged but would not be able to further develop the area.
The Bobbin Mill also falls within the overlay district, and owner Barry Simpson attended the meeting with his attorney, Sheila Ware, to argue against its inclusion.
In encouraging regulations like the Fluvial Erosion Hazard Overlay District, the ANR is interested only in environmental impact, Ware argued, while the select board must also consider the economic vitality of the town. The Bobbin Mill is "the only real industrial area in town," Ware said, and "there's absolutely no reason that this parcel couldn't be carved out so industrial use could continue."
Without the Fluvial Erosion Hazard Overlay District, Ware said, any future development would still be subject to conditional use by the Warren Development Review Board, which does take into consideration environmental impact.
And in terms of environmental impact, Ware expressed concern that the overlay district surrounding the Bobbin Mill was "unnecessarily broad," and that areas included in the district have not been flooded. "If you don't have flooding, how can you have erosion?" she said.
Indeed, "what is the science that says [the district] should be here, rather than there?" Ackland said.
In studying maps of the district in other areas, the select board also noticed that the district "seems to stop dead at Route 100," select board chair Andy Cunningham said, and that properties alongside Route 100 across from the river that would have otherwise been included in the district were not, due to this technicality.
"The Route 100 carve-out is unfair," select board member Anson Montgomery said, and the select board agreed that they did understand the reasons for discrepancies within the district.
"Having a more scientific basis would help us make a decision," select board chair Andy Cunningham said. The board agreed to postpone their decision on whether or not to adopt the Fluvial Erosion Hazard Overlay District and to invite an ANR representative to a future meeting to help further explain how overlap districts are determined.
