Holden making way back on US teamThe Associated Press | July 21,2013AP Photo
Stuart Holden celebrates after scoring a second-half goal during a CONCACAF Gold Cup match last week.Ninety minutes.
Thats how long any soccer player who starts a game expects to be on the field. For Stuart Holden, playing a full match had become anything but routine.
The midfielder who has fought a severe knee injury for 2½ years finally got in a full 90 for the first time since September 2011 on Tuesday when the United States beat Costa Rica 1-0 in the CONCACAF Gold Cup. He played well enough, although he wasnt much of a factor as the Americans won their eighth straight match for the first time ever.
Still, just being able to go the distance was a major achievement for the 27-year-old Holden, who plays for Bolton in Englands second-tier League Championship and was a member of the 2010 U.S. World Cup squad.
That was my first 90 in an official game, and it felt great, he said. I still had plenty of gas in the tank at the end, and its something you wonder about until you play the full match.
Holdens recent history has been a painful one. He broke his right leg on a vicious tackle by the Netherlands Nigel de Jong in March 2010. He hurt his left knee against Manchester United from a Jonny Evans tackle a year later. Holden returned from surgery for a League Cup match against Aston Villa that September, then needed more surgery eight days later.
He was out until January of this year, returning for three substitute appearances for Bolton, then four starts during a one-month loan to Sheffield Wednesday and another last-minute cameo for Bolton.
Ive been dealing with injuries and now its over and I have been moving on, Holden said. I want to be at my best as soon as I can, but if I am at 90 percent, I will give everything I have.
Playing soccer again, being on the team and around the guys, its what I have been working for.
Any hopes of making another World Cup team depend not only on Holden getting and staying healthy, but making an impression on coach Jurgen Klinsmann and his staff.
Klinsmann has been using the Gold Cup to look at veterans such as Landon Donovan, Oguchi Onyewu and DaMarcus Beasley who have been maintstays of past U.S. teams, and to gauge the skills of youngsters such as Mix Diskerud, Joe Corona and Brek Shea.
Holden falls in the middle of those groups. He also faces stiff competition in the midfield, a particularly strong position right now.
Fortunately, he has a fan in Klinsmann, who has shown a willingness to give every candidate a chance to impress during the countdown to Brazil 2014.
Stuart is a work in progress, Klinsmann said. We started with that after his season was over in England and we had many talks, and we said wed take it one day at a time. Hes a workaholic and he cant get enough. Weve got to build him and thats what were doing.
Going 90 minutes, and even in the last 10 minutes chasing down people, it was great to see. It gives us a very valuable option going forward at midfield. Im glad about his progress.
So are Holdens teammates. Beasley, a member of the last three World Cup squads, praises Holdens fighting spirit. Donovan, coming off a self-imposed four-month hiatus from the sport but still a key to American fortunes on the world stage, calls Holden relentless. Klinsmann thinks Holdens outgoing, encouraging personality helps the group.
At his best, Holden sparks the offense with long diagonal passes and penetrating runs. He hasnt shown much of that in the Gold Cup his passing was solid against Costa Rica, though and its probably unfair to expect too much from him this soon.
Just being on the field for his national team, which plays El Salvador on Sunday at Baltimore in the quarterfinals, is a huge step.
It doesnt really matter what you have done in the past, said Holden, who was born in Scotland but grew up in Sugar Land, Texas. I get on the field and I have to show what I can do now, and what I can for this team.
I put the most pressure on myself to perform, and I dont think about anything from anywhere else. I am here to contribute in whatever way I can.MORE IN Wire SportsFLORHAM PARK, N.J.

Dorsey: Writing resolutions for the new yearWritten by John Dorsey | | firstname.lastname@example.com
Happy New Year, Toledo! This time last year I had a whole list of resolutions for the new year. This year, I have only one. Everywhere I go, I tend to read aloud at least one poem by someone who has inspired me. More often than not, someone comes up to me later in the evening and thanks me for introducing them to the work of a poet they've never read before. Really I'm just doing what so many friends have done for me, I'm paying it forward. So my New Year's resolution is simply to carry on that tradition.
It's with that in mind, that I mention the work of Kell Robertson. A prolific poet, Robertson passed away in November in Santa Fe, N.M., at the age of 81 and I would guess you've never heard of him.
Born in Codell, Kan., in 1930, Robertson was the son of a saxophone player who walked out on the family when his boy was a toddler. His mother later remarried. Well on his way to becoming a "hood," Robertson was kicked out of the house at the age of 13, but not before his mother took him to hear Hank Williams. It was Williams' music that led him to a life filled with poetry and music.
Robertson was the author of a number of collections of poetry including "Oh, I'd Sing Alright," "Outlaw Fires," "Bear Crossing," "All the Bar Room Poetry in this World Can't Mend this Heart of Mine Dear," "The Levelling Wind," "Mailbox Boogie" with Ann Menebroker and most famously, "A Horse Called Desperation." This collection of selected works was published by Aspermont Press in 1995. He also edited the mimeograph publication "Desperado" and was a noted singer/songwriter of country music recording for several independent record labels. More than anything, he was a mentor.
I first came into contact with his work nearly 10 years ago, and was floored by his honesty. How he could take a simple narrative, a single memory, and turn it into something beautiful. This first reading led to a correspondence and later a friendship that I will cherish for the rest of my life.
When I met Kell in person in 2006, he told me about music, poets he'd known, and even recited Samuel Taylor Coleridge while sipping malt liquor out of a teacup. After that visit the letters continued, always filled with some wisdom or advice in Kell's slow easy style. Kell was certainly in a position to talk from experience; he had more stories to tell than most. He told me about the time he was kicked out of the offices of a major record label drunk as a skunk, right before he was supposed to have signed a contract that would've changed his life, about his time as a bit player in Sam Peckinpah's classic western "The Wild Bunch" and so much more.
He was inspiration to so many young artists like country recording star Jason Eklund, the Ohio band Blonde Boy Grunt and the Groans, and countless poets across the globe. City Lights Bookstore founder Lawrence Ferlinghetti once called Kell "a damn fine cowboy poet" but in my opinion that was selling him short. Kell was a lot of things: a singer, a poet, a father, a central member of both the Beat and Outlaw poetry movements and a friend. The best advice he ever gave me was to read the word and share its meaning. It's with that sentiment that I hope you'll seek out his work on the Internet in 2012 and if you ever need a reading suggestion feel free to ask. Ride easy, Kell.
Until next time … keep your pencil sharp.
John Dorsey resides in Toledo's Old West End. His work is widely published and has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize.

Thirteen Souls (Africa Journal #1)
from R.C. Sproul Jr. Jul 26, 2010 Category: ArticlesOne of my many weaknesses is that I don't, at least in my heart, believe that missionaries have weaknesses. I see them as super-heroes. How wonderful they must be to leave the comforts of home and family to go and serve. My mind knows better, but the heart has its reasons. Missionaries, I know objectively, are not super spiritual people who do not sin. They are instead super-spiritual people whose consciousness of their own sin fuels gospel gratitude which in turn leads to sacrificial love for others. Keep Reading
Right Now Counts Forever
from R.C. Sproul Jr. Jul 11, 2010 Category: Tabletalk MagazineIt was Augustine who argued that every sin is a failure to love ordinately. Sin is the result of either loving something more than we ought or the result of loving something less than we ought. We are to love, in order. Eve, for instance, found the fruit pleasing to the eye and desirable to make one wise. Nothing wrong there. She would have had to be blind to miss it. But she loved that fruit more than she should have, and she loved the law of God less than she should have. Our temptation, because we are the children of our parents who fell into sin, is often to defend our sin on the basis that it is grounded in love. That we steal our neighbor's reputation because we "love truth" is one form of love justifying a multitude of sins. That we steal our neighbor's wife because we "love her" is another attempt to defend sin. To love ordinately is to love as God loves, in due measure. It is to love what we love as we ought to love it. Keep Reading
Are You Messianic?
from R.C. Sproul Jr. Jul 08, 2010 Category: ArticlesThat depends. Do I have Messianic delusions? I certainly pray not, and if I do, then surely I must repent for them. Is my faith built around the biblical promise of the coming of Messiah, steeped in the wisdom of the Old Covenant? Of course. Am I part of that subsection of the Christian faith that holds it important to keep kosher, to keep Jewish feast days, who rest and worship Friday through Saturday evening? Nope, that's not me.

Repentance and Reformation
from R.C. Sproul Jr. Jun 14, 2010 Category: Tabletalk MagazineThe Protestant Reformation is called the Reformation for a good reason. It is not called the First Reformation or Reformation II, as if they happen every so often. I have never been asked, when referencing the Reformation, "Of which Reformation do you speak?" Renewals? Of course. Revivals? Who could doubt it? There has been only one Reformation, precisely because they are rather hard to come by. Those of us who long for another, then, might be wise to search out that spark that started the Reformation. Where did it all begin? Was it with Martin Luther's stirring speech at the Diet of Worms, his firm resolve to stand on the Word of God? Perhaps. Did it start earlier, in Luther's study, as he exegeted key texts on justification? Maybe. Did it start with his fiery speech before he dropped the papal bull announcing his excommunication into the flames? One could so argue. Keep Reading
The Lost and the Found
from R.C. Sproul Jr. Jun 01, 2010 Category: ArticlesIt's Tuesday as I write, the first Tuesday after the end of Lost. A week has passed since the bewildering end to a mold-breaking, bewildering, television event. I got lost a little late, though of late I think I don't get Lost at all. That is, I started watching near the end of the second season. It was the first television program I watched via DVD, and with my dear wife stayed up many a late night to watch "just one more." We waited for Season 2's release, and watched it also on DVD. From that point however, we put ourselves on the schedule of the network. Keep Reading
Should Christians Be on Facebook?
from R.C. Sproul Jr. May 27, 2010 Category: ArticlesShould Christians be on Facebook? What about all the privacy issues that are in the news these days? I sometimes wonder if the devil doesn't take great pleasure in irony, in watching us turn ourselves inside out while missing the point. While I am on Facebook, and therefore at least hold to a tentative conviction that such is allowable for Christians, there are any number of reasons to raise concerns over it. Privacy and the lack thereof, however, would likely be the last one I would raise. With Facebook's very public and controversial announcement of its change in policy with respect to privacy, that, however, is what has many Christians concerned. How, I wonder, can a person take a technology that exists to say to the watching world, "Here I am. Come see about me" complain that the world is coming to see about them? Anyone who wishes more privacy can find such easily enough. Don't use Facebook. If you already do, stop. We are in a moral uproar for all the wrong reasons. We are aghast at the owners of Facebook for daring to change their policy (which, remember, the original policy held out as at their discretion) rather than being appalled at ourselves for implicitly breaking the 8th Commandment. We think because we are a user of Facebook that such makes us an owner of Facebook, and so demand this and demand that from the real owners. Keep Reading
Converting to Catholicism
from R.C. Sproul Jr. May 22, 2010 Category: ArticlesWhat would you say to a Christian who is thinking of converting to Roman Catholicism? First…don't. After that my approach would likely adjust for the particular person, and what I knew about what was motivating them to make that move. Any approach, however, would look at both personal issues and theological issues. Too often we unwisely focus on one to the exclusion of the other. In my own circles we tend to jump to the theological. Keep Reading
What Is Reconstructionism? What Is Theonomy?
from R.C. Sproul Jr. May 12, 2010 Category: ArticlesLike Calvinism and Reformed theology, these two terms are often used as synonyms, but could be understood as genus and species. That is, embracing Calvinism is part of what it means to be Reformed, but not the whole. In like manner some would suggest that theonomy is part of the broader body of convictions described as reconstructionism. Theonomy might be understood as the conviction that the civil law God gave to Israel in the Old Testament ought to be the law of the land in all nations everywhere. Keep Reading
The One-Two Punch
from R.C. Sproul Jr. May 10, 2010 Category: Tabletalk MagazineThe one thing I want you to be certain to do is finish reading this column and brush your teeth every evening. I trust at least two things strike you about this opening sentence. First, it's a rather odd way to begin. Second, why would I tell you there is one thing I want you to be certain to do and then ask for two things? Truth be told, I am following in the footsteps of Jesus, hoping to better understand our calling to follow in His footsteps. He said, Seek first that which is first, not first and second, but first, the kingdom of God. That would have made perfect sense, had He stopped there. But He didn't. He said seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness. That's two things, or is it? Keep Reading
Something New Under the Sun
from R.C. Sproul Jr. Apr 27, 2010 Category: Tabletalk MagazineImagine, if you would, that you are the most powerful person in the world. Now imagine that you are also the richest person in the world. Would your life be fundamentally different? Would everything that is now ordinary about your life become extraordinary? Not according to the wisest man in the world. King Solomon reigned in Israel at the peak of its power. Israel was at that time a world power, her borders swelling. Solomon likewise enjoyed the wealth of Croesus (the grossly rich Greek king). No one on the planet was as wealthy as Solomon. Better than all this, however, he was gifted by the God of heaven and earth with wisdom. In that wisdom, and in light of experiencing every pleasure, every distraction that the world had to offer, he spoke this heavy nugget: "There is nothing new under the sun" (Eccl. 1:9).

Former Bishop England teammates returned to Charleston last weekend donning new college colors to square off in the 2014 College of Charleston Invitational.
Bishop England volleyball standouts Ellie James and Mary Harriet Moore played together on three state championship teams while in high school. Saturday, James, now a sophomore outside hitter at Mercer, and Moore, a freshman middle hitter at Davidson, reunited on opposite sides of the net.
Davidson earned the win over Mercer in three sets, 25-15, 25-21, 25-23, to pick up its first win of the season. Moore tallied four kills and a dig, while James, hampered by injury, recorded two digs.
Mercer earned the tournament's overall team title, going 2-1 with wins over Kent State and College of Charleston. James logged eight digs against College of Charleston after turning in six kills and 16 digs against Kent State.
Davidson suffered losses to College of Charleston and Kent State in the opening rounds of the tournament. Moore put together four kills and a dig against College of Charleston and tallied seven kills, three digs and a block against Kent State.

text: I just don't see the market forces/pressures being there for UFC to buy Bellator. Pride and Strikeforce brought a lot of big names along with the purchase and also eliminated major competitors. Getting Tito and Rampage back plus a few middle ranking guys wouldn't justify the cost it would take to purchase Bellator. They can't do much with their library and Bellator isn't cutting into their revenue like the other organizations do. Unless Bellator starts getting larger and controlling some big name, known fighters (who still have gas left in the tank), they aren't on the UFC's radar enough to be considered for a purchase.

When that school closed he again re-opened in a new location under the Ta Gi Gaku Karate Do system.........then he started advertising Krav-Maga and started to drop the Ta Gi Gaku thing.
He doesn't hold a 4th dan in TKD....he holds the 4th Dan in his own system.

He was in the right and you are out of line.And that's when I figured out that tears couldn't make somebody who was dead alive again. There's another thing to learn about tears, they can't make somebody who doesn't love you any more love you again. It's the same with prayers. I wonder how much of their lives people waste crying and praying to God. If you ask me, the devil makes more sense than God does. I can at least see why people would want him around. It's good to have somebody to blame for the bad stuff they do. Maybe God's there because people get scared of all the bad stuff they do. They figure that God and the Devil are always playing this game of tug-of-war game with them. And they never know which side they're gonna wind up on. I guess that tug-of-war idea explains how sometimes, even when people try to do something good, it still turns out bad.

After I read Whitney's article about appetite-suppressing foods (see above), I thought I'd try to put together a little salad from the ingredients she mentions for a filling lunch that would get me through the afternoon. After some experimenting, I hit on a pretty tasty combination. Here's my recipe to beat the cravings!
2 cups fresh spinach
1 small apple, diced
1 Tbsp. pine nuts
1/2 cup canned garbanzo beans, drained
1 Tbsp. flaxseeds, ground
1 Tbsp. olive oil
Juice of half a lemon (or to taste)
Salt and pepper to taste
In a large salad bowl, toss all ingredients together and enjoy!

"I would also like to suggest chia seed as an even better alternative to flax seed. Higher in Omega 3's and fiber and unlike flax the chia seed is also very high in antioxidents. Because it is so high in anti oxidents you don't have to worry about it going rancid the way flax seed does. It also gives you that full feeling. Just make sure you invest in a good quality chia product."

It's the last thing most people want to see at this tax-paying
time of the year: A plain brown envelope marked "Official Government Business"
with the return address of the Internal Revenue Service.
don't panic. The news might not be as bad as you think.
a full-blown tax
audit might be your first thought, that notice might be the extent of your
contact with the IRS. The agency might be telling you that you've made a math
error on your return that must be fixed. Or maybe something on your W-2 doesn't
agree with your tax return. In such correspondence-audit situations, you usually
can clear up the discrepancy with a couple of exchanges of information via the
Then again, the worst could happen and that envelope
could be a notice that one of your past tax returns is being audited in full.
In this case, what do you do?
Sharon Tabor Warren, an enrolled
agent and author from Amherst County, Va., says, "If I have prepared
the client's tax return for the year under audit, I ask them for an IRS power
of attorney, Form 2848, and to forward their audit notice to me. Then, I tell
them to sit back and relax -- I'll handle it from there."
makes a good case for having a professional prepare your tax returns!
continues, "I never recommend that a client call the IRS themselves nor attend
the audit. They can unwittingly reveal information that is not required and potentially
cause more problems." A tax professional licensed to practice before the
IRS can deal with the IRS and attend the audit for you.
with professional representation, you still must prepare for an audit by gathering
information and taking it to your tax representative. Carol, a Massachusetts resident who endured an audit, says that her three top tips for preparing for the experience are "good records, good records and more good records."
In other words, adequate record keeping year round, not just on April 15, is essential
in case of an audit.
More specifically, how should you, a
taxpayer, prepare for an audit if it happens? These tips will point you in the
right direction:

I'm 17 and I've started programming and reading SE all day, every day. I absolutely love it and want to program for a living, but how much is too much? Is it unhealthy to sit at a computer all the time? Is this just a phase? Did this happen to you? If so, what did you do about it?
closed as primarily opinion-based by gnat, GlenH7, Kilian Foth, MichaelT, World Engineer♦ Oct 23 '13 at 12:59
Many good questions generate some degree of opinion based on expert experience, but answers to this question will tend to be almost entirely based on opinions, rather than facts, references, or specific expertise. If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Are you learning? If so, then I don't see what the problem is.
That said, it's wise to practice moderation in all things, including moderation..
Obsession is a problem if it negatively affects other aspects of your life. For example, if it gets in the way of you performing your job or schoolwork. If you cancel social activities with friends so that you can click on the "reload" button. If you forget to eat or sleep.
If any of that happens to be the case, you need to take steps toward change. And to do so you'll need to seek someone else's help.
I am 20, I program, I sit in front of the computer for 14+ hours most of the days, and I am sure this is not just a phase for me.
I'll do this till my passion for Programming fades(which is unlikely to happen).
You spend so much of time thinking/learning Programming, that's infact very good.
Follow your passion, that's what matters.
Follow these simple rules and you'll be a guru hacker in no time.
Its probably just a phase. I did this when I first started getting into programming as a career. I was in kind of a bad situation with my career at the time and had some technical exposure before and liked it but just had never tried programming. I threw myself into it and basically worked non-stop (didn't have a job at the time) consuming tutorials, building things, etc.. I did this for probably 3 months where I would do it 16 hours a day. Basically, I wanted to get myself up to being on par for an entry level programming job and I finally did by getting some telecommute freelance work then a few months later I landed a part-time job with a regular web application company as a programmer...
After I started getting paid for it, I drastically cut down the time I spent just working on personal projects and my life is back to fairly normal now.. you should only do that sort of thing for a little while, such as when you're trying to make a real push into getting familiar with the paradigms of programming. Once you become familiar with design patterns and the basics, learning new things comes easier and can be done through reading, etc not just trial and error types of things. But doing a lot of programming work at first will give you confidence in your abilities to get a career started.
There is only one situation when obsession is not enough
As Jeff has pointed out, everything should be in moderation.
However there is one situation, when no amount of obsession is enough:
I am 32 now, and when I was seventeen, I used to sit for more than 14 hours per day. It's good to be passionate about the things you like, but you have to be careful. It's important to learn, it's important to enjoy it, but it is also really important to not lose track.
You have to keep in mind that you need to exercise as well, otherwise, when you reach 32, you will feel your body ache like you are 60. Apart from that, if you feel happy, and you are feeling your improving and doing useful things, keep walking...
P.S. I failed to mention that despite being 32 I still sit for ~11hours per work day in front of the computer. Weekends I try to spend as much time as I can with my daughter.
And yes, my body aches, really... You need the exercise!
I'm 20 too, I had a horrible job, and for weeks I needed to work from 14pm to 8am next day because the boss was from New York, and he believed in total dedication. (There were no weekends.)
I had my reasons to accept this tempo for some time, but barely got anything done those days.
When your senses are telling you "less is more", you won't need to trade more time. Look for inspiration outside of your room, spend time with your family/girlfriend.
If you're constantly feeding your brain, it'll eat less than in an ideal speed.
Unless you have photographic memory.
I myself spend at least 8 hours a day in front of the computer and sometimes more. Obsession is healthy if it causes you to do beneficial things. Yes, it is unhealthy to sit in front of a computer all the time and so is watching TV at least on the computer you mind might be engaged. I have no plans for changing my behavior but as with all things you will ultimately need to come to your own conclusions.
I work a standard job, and I am a programmer. I spend time in front of the computer while at work for at least 6 out of the 8 hours, and then when I get home I sit down in front of my computer again to spend another 4 or so hours that night in front of the computer.
Do I consider it an obsession? A little bit, but it is also very beneficial, the amount of information I read helps me get better at my job and helps me challenge myself to do better and learn something new that I have not yet had any experience with.
I do spend time away from my computer though. I read books, I go to practice Kung Fu every other day, and I like to spend time walking around. All of those are mainly just for me to think more about what I have learned and to process the information I have just pilled into my brain.
You just described me, I too am 17 and plan on majoring in Computer Science in college. As Jeff said, as long as you are learning, there is no problem whatsoever. I learn at least one new thing a day just from lurking on StackOverflow/StackExchange. Whether it is a more efficient way to accomplish a task or some new framework or buzzword, I always learn something new and feel that I am making a good use of my time. I do balance it out with some other hobby to rest my eyes every hour or so.
If you want to be a GOOD programmer, you need to learn very much, so definitely you will spend a lot of time to facing computer. Many people have this phase, spend 12+ hours per working day, event in weekend. If you have interesting on this, you do so as well. Otherwise, learn enough knowledge, and start working, until you need to learn more. Or you can find a job which needn't to refresh knowledge so frequently.
A general rule is : If it harms to your health, that's too much.
I think obsession is just to much when you start to realize that the things you like have happened and you dont even realize.
So, take some time for yourself, tacke breakes and dont push it, i understand your passion on the matter, but things work out if you go with the flow. Remember, life is a long way, you cant spect to live it all in 14 hours.
Happy programming!
If what you're doing does not have a negative impact on your social life or health, it's not called obsession - it's called ambition and enthusiasm. And the line between the two may be very thin indeed. So know where this thin line lies - not necessarily to walk it, but to avoid stepping over it.
It's only unhealthy if you're not putting the time you've spent on programming and reading SE sites to good use. You should try reading my question here. It's kind of similar to yours :)
If you want to be an expert in anything, you should put in at least 10,000 hours. I've been programming since age 13, and I still don't think I've done enough. Keep at it unless it's hurting the rest of your life.

They're invading people's homes to get their drug money," said Vernon Eversole, a Madison resident whose home and business both have been broken into.And residents say theyre not going to take it anymore."You have to step up and say enough is enough. I can't walk or talk to anybody that's either been a victim or they know of a person that's been a victim," said Debbie Eversole, who is organizing a community watch group to fight back.The Eversoles own and run Vernons Auto Repair. Their shop has been broken into twice, and their home has been broken into once.Theyve put up security cameras around their house, and theyre willing to do just about anything to get drugs off the streets because theyre fed up."I would do anything to help anyone," Vernon Eversole said. "I mean, even that person out there on the street who needs help -- I'm the type of person that would do that. They got me to the point now that when I look at one of them, I want to choke them."So, he and Debbie Eversole started a community watch group, and they're asking anyone to get involved. They say the drugs and home break-ins are not going away."This is one time I'm not quitting," Debbie Eversole said. "I feel like a pit bull dog after raw meat. And that's exactly how I'm going after this. I will not give up."Saying theyre stronger in numbers, the Eversoles say its time for the community to fight back."People around here -- I don't want to get involved, I'm scared of what they may do to me. I'm not scared of no one. And I'll tell you, I don't care. I've got a gun, and it's not for hunting. It's for people, and I think people out here need to bare up and get stronger," Vernon Eversole said.He also has a message for those who are causing the problems."If you want to fry your brain and you want to do things like that, don't bother the innocent people," he said. "And that's what's drug are doing to us down here."(Editors note: Coal Valley News received permission from WSAZ to publish this story.

Once Upon a Time
Why Is There No New Once Upon a Time Tonight, February 3?
If you tune into ABC expecting to see a new episode of Once Upon a Time tonight, February 3, you'll be very disappointed — there isn't a new episode until next week.
Why has the magic been delayed? Oh, just a little thing called the Super Bowl. No big deal or anything!
Those of you who aren't football fans might not get it, but here's some perspective: Last year, a record breakings 111.3 million people tuned in to the Superbowl to see the New England Patriots face off against the New York Giants.
While this year's matchup of the Baltimore Ravens vs. the San Francisco 49ers might not pull in quite so many people, we can understand why ABC decided to have OUAT take the week off.
OUAT returns with Season 2, Episode 13: "Tiny" on Sunday, February 10, 2013 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.

It started in November with a blossoming young coach optimistic enough to believe the ultimate was possible.
He sold his team on a goal that had never been accomplished by its school, and his players bought in.
A preseason rankings snub was motivation. Midseason adversity was fuel. And then, on the biggest postseason stage of all, a historical win was the payoff.
The Wando Warriors defeated the Hillcrest Rams, 65-50, in the Class 4A championship game Friday at Colonial Life Arena in Columbia to capture the first boys basketball state title in school history.
Warriors head coach David Eaton praised his players, his staff, the community that supported them and the teams that came before. Then he looked over at his players as they celebrated with a glistening state championship trophy hoisted in the air and gold medals dangling from their necks and realized what they really were.
This is the best Wando basketball team ever, Eaton said. They did it. These guys came out and proved it. They always believed in themselves, in what we were trying to accomplish and they came out and did it tonight.
Hillcrest rode an 8-0 run to cut Wandos lead to 10 with three minutes to play in the fourth quarter. With a championship hanging in the balance, Eaton called his team to the sideline for some final motivation.
Coach just told us to man up, Wando center Matt Pegram said. He said were not trying to hold off a lead. Were trying to win this game. We needed that and we went back out and finished the job.
Warriors forward Taylor Majewski scored five straight points out the timeout, Pegram pinned a block against the backboard and Wando closed on a 15-10 run to seal the win.
Jamez Rogers led all scorers with 25 for Wando. Amp Moore added 13, Andrew Glover 11 and Majewski turned in seven points and eight boards. Pegram finished with nine points, 15 rebounds and four blocks. Wando dominated the boards, outrebounding Hillcrest 48-26.
Theyre a great team, but we felt like we were better, Glover said. We were doing it all season long but to do it in the biggest game of the year just speaks very highly of our team.
The Rams controlled the lead until the three-minute mark of the second quarter, using its pressure to force 12 turnovers in the first half. Wando needed a spark; Rogers provided it. With his team trailing by two, the all-state sophomore drained a three from the wing to give the Warriors their first lead since the first basket of the game. Wando never trailed again.
I just felt like no one could stop me, Rogers said.
He went on to score the next seven points of the game. Wando opened the second half on a 15-5 run that Rogers capped with a dunk. He scored 10 points in the third quarter. Wando scored 20 points in the first half, then reeled off 25 in the third quarter to take a 15-point lead into the fourth.
After shooting 30 percent from the field in the first half, Wando connected on 68 percent in the second. The Warriors made just one of seven threes through the first two quarters but rained in seven of 11 through the final 16 minutes.
Randall Shaw led Hillcrest with 16 points on 6-21 shooting while Tyler Hooker added 14 on 5-20. Hillcrest was limited to 28 percent shooting and just 18 percent from three.
When we led by 15 in the fourth quarter, for a second I thought, are you kidding me? Eaton said. They were cold, but I really thought we caused them to go cold. We kept a hand in their face and made it difficult for them all night.
Now Wando sits alone atop high school basketball in South Carolina. It can finally claim a championship its never been able to. This years team will be remembered for doing something no other Wando boys basketball team ever has. This years team will be remembered as the best Wando boys basketball team ever.

Vacuum Attachment Kit

Customer Reviews for Vacuum Attachment Kit:
July 27, 2014
Belle P
I love this vacuum attachment, too! Blowing into your sewing machine not only can force material further into crevices but it will also add moisture (from your breath) where it could be deleterious to the machine. I have also used this on my computer and my husband's laptop, as well as some other machinery. The little brush is invaluable when dealing with delicate figurines.

GrandCentral 2.0, Almost Ready to Be Released
Jeff Huber from Google writes that "a new [GrandCentral] version on new infrastructure will be coming soon" in a comment of a story about a recent certificate error in GrandCentral.
David Pogue adds: "Everyone from GrandCentral still works on GrandCentral, and the 2.0 version is imminent. A PR guy explained to me that it's taken a year to merge the GrandCentral servers with Google's, but they're nearly done."
Jeff Hubert posts an interesting list of acquisitions and the resulting Google products, but the only surprising news is that Zingku, the mobile social network acquired by Google in 2007, was used to create Google FriendConnect:
"Writely + XL2Web + TonicSystems -> Google Docs,
Keyhole -> Google Earth/Maps,
Urchin + MeasureMap -> Google Analytics,
JotSpot -> Google Sites,
Zingku -> Google FriendConnect,
Android -> Android,
DoubleClick -> DoubleClick,
Feedburner -> AdSense for Feeds (in-process);
sorry about Dodgeball".

Off we flew to Florida, hearts heavy thinking of leaving Marty behind, yet hearts light assuring ourselves that we had left him in good hands, highly recommended, a place where he could spend his days out of doors, dashing in and out of the trees with furry companions, getting dirty to his little heart's content, basking in the warm summer sun of Nantes. We said our goodbyes, turned away and left for vacation.
Fast forward 24 hours or so. Open the door and walk into mom's house to be greeted by Buster, her own little Boston terrier. Pudgy butterball to Marty's spindly elegance, Buster barrels through the house, little clown face barely large and round enough to contain his toothy grin, he is a happy little dog basking in the joy of four weeks of constant attention, tummy rubs and playing companions. Yes, we feel just a little guilty each time we snuggle with Buster, toss the ball with Buster, pamper and spoil Buster, feeling guilty that at that very moment our own poor Marty is in some cage, all alone on the other side of the Atlantic without our constant show of love, without his daily ration of treats, but we smile and reassure each other that he must be having a ball.
And Buster deserves this attention. Poor little Boston is an orphan; he was my brother Michael's dog and after having lived through the horror of my brother's illness for close upon two years, of having been neglected and abused by one who could do no better under the circumstances, who knew no better as he was, he was welcomed into my mother's house a year ago last June when they brought my brother home. He lost his master and gained a mistress; my mother the self-proclaimed dog hater clung onto this little creature as a way to hold onto her son. And she has fallen in love. My mom, independent and set in her ways, is in total sync with pudgy Buster now: their daily rhythm filled with doggie treats given like clockwork, ball toss sessions in the backyard, even walks around the block! She takes him to work where he lies at her feet only jumping up to greet visitors. He is a good little dog, calm and funny. As we watch him plod through the house then plop down onto the cool tile floor, legs splayed out looking for all the world like a large black and white frog, or suffer through one of his sneezing fits that lifts his entire body off of the floor, or laugh as he juggles his little red ball, rolling it across his back and down his nose, we realize how lucky the little devil is to have ended up in this funny Odd Couple relationship with my mom, to have found peace… the Spring of Hope.
Close to four weeks of activity, constant attention and spoiling, we left Buster content, happy and having to go back to finding his daily rhythm again with mom. Anxious to get back home to our own beds, our own kitchen and our daily habits, we suffered through the long three flights and airport layovers with only one thought in our minds: bust Marty out of prison…er, um, I mean: pick Marty up from camp! We arrived home 24 hours later, dropped our bags in the hallway and rushed out to the car and off we dashed! And then… heartbreak…
To make a long story short… I had started to tell the whole disturbing story but will spare you the gory details. Needless to say, while we were pampering his cousin, Marty was suffering. While it was the Best of Times for Buster, it was heartrendingly the Worst of Times for Marty: on close inspection once we arrived home, we saw that his body was littered with bite marks and scars, he was limping in obvious pain, bleeding still from fresh bites and he lay down on a clean sheet and cried for 24 hours. Some of it may have been for show, to make us feel our guilt, milk it for all it was worth, but poor baby did not enjoy camp, did not make friends, did not have a good time. He had been bullied and bitten; it was indeed his Winter of Despair…
A week has gone by and his wounds are healing and he seems close to normal. It is his turn to be spoiled and pampered,, cuddled and hugged. But our hearts have been ripped out of our chests and we swore on his tiny, scarred head that he will never be left alone again. He is part of the family and vacations will be planned accordingly.
I have made one fabulous Boston Cream Pie before, traditional in it's light-as-air sponge layers, its luxurious vanilla pastry cream filling, it's dark chocolate ganache icing. In honor of Marty's pudgy cousin Buster, in all of his clown-like glory, I have made tiny, plump, individual Boston Cream Pies, baking the sponge in muffin tins, filling the split cakes with a wonderful, rich chocolate pastry cream and draping each in a fantastic orange-infused semisweet chocolate ganache frosting. For the ganache I used a special Dark Chocolate with Orange Zest made by Monoprix Gourmet which gave these cakes, as it says on the package, "un petit air de fête", a festive quality, like our time spent with Buster.
The sponge batter made 12 individual Boston Cream Pies. I baked a dozen mini-Bundt sponge cakes with the rest of the batter, delicious and delightful at breakfast or as a light snack.
So, here is to our Bostons, those charming, loving, funny little dogs, so different yet so alike.
With Chocolate Pastry Cream Filling and Dark Chocolate Orange Ganache
Sponge cake:
5 large eggs
¾ cup (150 g) sugar, divided
½ tsp vanilla
3/4 cup (95 g) flour (I use cake flour)
1 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
3 Tbs milk
2 Tbs (30 g) unsalted butter
1/8 tsp cream of tartar or few grains of salt + drop or two of lemon juice to stabilize whites
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Butter and line 12 muffins tins. Butter 12 mini-Bundt pans.
Carefully separate 3 of the eggs, placing the yolks in a large mixing bowl and the whites in a medium-sized mixing bowl, preferably plastic (ideal for whipping whites). Add the remaining 2 whole eggs to the yolks and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour with the baking powder and the salt.
In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the milk and butter just until warm enough for the butter to melt. Once melted, stir together, remove from the heat and set aside.
With an electric mixer, beat the eggs and the yolks together with 6 tablespoons of the sugar on high speed for 5 minutes until thick, light and fluffy and the batter drops off in a slow ribbon when the beaters are lifted. Beat in the vanilla.
In a clean mixing bowl, preferably plastic, and with very clean beaters, whip the egg whites with either the cream of tartar or a few grains of salt and a drop or two of lemon juice on low speed until foamy. Increase the speed to high and continue beating, gradually adding the remaining sugar. Beat only until soft, moist, shiny peaks form.
Gently fold in half of the creamy egg whites into the cake batter to lighten it, then fold in the remaining beaten whites. Sift or spoon half the flour mixture over the batter and gently fold it in before adding the remaining flour and folding that in just until incorporated. Do not over mix.
Make a well on one side of the batter and pour the warm melted butter/milk mixture into the bowl. Gently but thoroughly fold the butter/milk into the batter. Again, do not over mix.
Ladle the batter into the prepared muffin or mini-Bundt pans, filling about 2/3. Bake for 15 – 18 minutes. They should be puffed up, golden brown and set. Remove from the oven, loosen with a sharp knife and lift out. Allow to cool on a cooling rack before Filling.
Chocolate Pastry Cream:
1 ¼ cups (300 ml) whole milk
½ vanilla bean, split lengthwise
3 large egg yolks (keep the whites for macarons!)
¼ cup (50 g) sugar
1/8 cup (20 g) flour
Scant 3 Tbs (20 g) cornstarch
2 oz (50 g) semi-sweet chocolate, melted and cooled to room temperature
In a medium bowl, stir the egg yolks and sugar together with a wooden spoon until thick and creamy. Sift the flour and cornstarch together then stir into the egg/sugar mixture until you have a paste.
Place the milk and the split vanilla bean in a saucepan and heat over a low flame just until boiling; the milk will start to foam up around the edges. Remove from the heat and add the melted chocolate, stirring until smooth. Add the hot chocolate milk mixture to the egg mixture in a slow stream, whisking constantly so the eggs do not curdle, until all of the milk has been whisked into the egg paste. Remove the vanilla bean and scrape out the seeds adding the seeds back to the chocolate cream mixture.
Place the chocolate milk/egg mixture back into the saucepan and cook over medium low heat just until boiling, whisking constantly. When it comes to a boil allow it to cook, still whisking non-stop, for an additional 30 – 60 seconds until it becomes very thick.
Remove from the heat and immediately scrape out of the pan into a clean glass bowl or large measuring cup. If you like, you can stir in a tablespoon or two of Amaretto, Grand Marnier or whatever you like, to taste. But for this cake it really is not necessary.
Cover with plastic wrap, pressing the plastic onto the surface of the pastry cream, and refrigerate until cool. You can keep the pastry cream in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Dark Chocolate Orange Ganache:
4 oz (120 g) Dark Chocolate with Orange Zest, finely chopped *
½ cup (125 ml) heavy cream
1 tsp unsalted butter
* Feel free to use any flavored dark chocolate
Place the finely chopped chocolate in a heatproof medium-sized bowl. Bring the cream and the butter just to the boil in a small saucepan over medium heat. When it comes to the bowl, pour the liquid over the chocolate and allow it to stand for 2 or 3 minutes. Stir until smooth and continue to stir until creamy and thick enough to spread. If you need to (as I did) place the bowl in the fridge until the desired pouring/spreading consistency is reached (not too thick or it won't spread), taking the bowl out of the fridge and stirring every few minutes to check.
Individual Boston Cream Pies:
Using a serrated knife, carefully slice each sponge muffin in two horizontally. Gently spread a tablespoon or two – as much or as little as you like – of the Chocolate Pastry Cream on the bottom half of each cake. Sandwich. Drizzle Dark Chocolate Orange Ganache over the top of each cake and serve.
Serve the mini-Bundt sponge cakes with warm Dark Chocolate Orange Ganache drizzled over the top with ice cream for an elegant dessert or as is for breakfast or coffee break.

This one is mainly for the English readers.
The company Pantech has been pushing out midrange phones on the English market for a while and the majority of them can be described as mediocre. This one breaks that stereotype with its specifications and what it has under the hood.
The Pantech Flex deserves its name because of the software that it has inside. To be precise, it works on Android 4.0.4 that can be boot up in an easy mode – made for people with less understanding of modern Android usage and a standard mode that is more or less as any other Android software.

Ke$ha: I Had "Eyeball Sex" With Johnny Depp
Ke$ha has made a career of making outlandish statements, whether it's starting her day with whiskey-as-toothpaste in her hit songs or claiming to have intimate relationships with supernatural entities, but her latest outrageous story reaches new heights.
The "Die Young" singer and gold tooth aficionado informed UK paper Metro News that during a benefit concert for Hurricane Sandy, she got down with a well-known Hollywood star — well, kind of.
"Me and Johnny Depp had eyeball sex at the benefit concert for Superstorm Sandy in L.A.," said the My Crazy Beautiful Life star.
"We never really talked -- we just had eyeball sex."
While Ke$ha has claimed in song that she'll "kick [men] to the curb unless they look like Mick Jagger," and the addition of Depp sets a high bar for future suitors, she admitted that, in general, she's a woman of simple taste.
"I don't want a guy talking too much about their damn emotions. I get a little over that. I just want a guy who has a big penis and a car."
Never change, girl.
