The Adamsville High School Lady Cardinal bowling team made history last Saturday, becoming the first female bowling team at AHS to advance to the state competition with a 19-8 win over Bartlett High School in their Sectional match at Strike Zone Lanes in Southaven, Miss.
Picking up their 10th win of the season, the Lady Cards won the match with a total pinfall of 2,824-2,526. Amron Forsythe rolled a 490 series with her high game of 235 coming in her third and final game of the day.
Forsythe, who was named Region 7 Female Bowler of the Year following the region tournament on Jan. 10, was named as a finalist for the Tennessee State Bowling Proprietors Association Miss Bowler of the Year award earlier in the week. The winner will be announced on Thursday.
Against Bartlett, Breanna Taylor led the Lady Cards with a match-high series of 540 on games of 148, 211, and 181. Her sister, Deanna Taylor, rolled a 502 series on games of 161, 178, and 163. Emily Surratt added a high game of 199, Kanesha Wright posted a high game of 186, and Nicole Ross rolled a 144.
Adamsville takes a 10-3 record to the state competition with all three losses coming against the undefeated, two-time defending state champion Hardin County Lady Tigers, who defeated White Station 20-7 in their Sectional match to advance as well.
The Lady Cardinals will leave for the Division I State Bowling Team Tournament at 8:30 a.m. on Wednesday, but they will not play their first match until noon on Friday.
The team will travel early so the girls can cheer for Forsythe, who qualified for the Div. I State Bowling Individual Tournament with a 193 average for the season, as she tries to bring home an individual state championship for AHS. The quarterfinals of the individuals tournament begins on Thursday at 9 a.m.
All state tournament matches will be played at the Smyrna Bowling Center in Smyrna, Tenn.

Nothing but prime beef here, featuring the hottest real men on the net. These studs are aged to perfection and love to show where experience counts.
This week on MenOver30.com we have a pairing that's been months in the making. Trey Truner has been wanting to do a scene with Matthew Rush and who are we to deny? Trey is laying on the bed looking at a pic of Matthew in a folder thinking all sorts of things when Matthew comes in; takes the folder out of his hands and replaces it with the real thing. They start to kiss as Trey starts to strip Matthew. Trey moves south to the growing bulge in Matt's shorts as he starts to work that cock through his shorts. He takes that dick into his mouth and finally gets to run his tongue along Matt's smooth balls and cock. He sucks it all the way down his throat as he looks up at Matt for approval. Trey deep throats that thick cock with ease and soon they are making out as they rub their cocks together. Matthew begins to feel left out as he takes his turn at bat. Trey sits back and watches as Matt sucks on his cock greedily swallowing every inch he's given. It's time for some expert rimmin! g, Matthe

With the recent releases of Dean Wareham's Emancipated Hearts and the more recent Dean Wareham you'd be forgiven for thinking that this was the first ever solo releases by Dean… this is a little thrown together post to prove otherwise:
Here's what I believe was Dean's debut solo outing on the Shimmy Disc compilation What Else Do You Do? released in 1990. It's an early, acoustic version of Smile which got it's full band release on Luna's debut LP Lunapark a couple of years later.
MP3: Dean Wareham – Smile
In 1991 Dean released a solo electric guitar piece called West Broadway on the No6/Glitterhouse compilation Guitarrorists
MP3: Dean Wareham – West Broadway
Also in 1991 Dean released a version of Beat Happening's Indian Summer (later to become a regular in Luna's set) on a promo 7″ single given away with Chemical Imbalance magazine.
MP3: Dean Wareham – Indian Summer
After Galaxie 500 split Dean was given some money to record some demos, these made an appearance on the Mint Records Anesthesia single as a solo release.
MP3: Dean Wareham – Anesthesia
MP3: Dean Wareham – I Can't Wait
MP3: Dean Wareham – Tomato Poodle
In 2005 Dean recorded a solo version of Pink Floyd's Hey You for the soundtrack of the Noah Baumbach film The Squid and The Whale
… and then in 2014 Love is Colder than Death was released, the track was on Emancipated Hearts which Pitchfork described as "astonishingly, his debut solo release"
So Pitchfork, this post is to prove you wrong.

While thousands of fans got to see Bon Jovi rock the stage at the Xcel Energy Center Sunday, six fans got to go behind the scenes.
The students from Augsburg College were invited backstage to see what goes into creating a world tour.
The students spent the day with Bon Jovi's tour coordinator and crew chief.
For Alex Jamieson, this was a chance to see her dream job up close. "There's so many hidden jobs that you don't even know about- there's people setting up stage right now- there's people on computers."
Bon Jovi opened up the tour to select students for a way for them to learn what it takes to put together a major tour production.

China Airlines is planning to issue unsecured corporate bonds to raise up to New Taiwan dollars (NT$) 12 billion ($413 million) to finance its incoming aircraft order.
The bonds will be in denominations of NT$100 million and the issuing period will depend on market conditions, the carrier said in a statement on the Taiwan Stock Exchange.
"The main purpose is to raise NT$12 billion of funds for next year's pre-delivery payments of the new Airbus A350s," says a spokeswoman, adding that part of the proceeds will also go towards the carrier's operational needs.
The SkyTeam alliance member has orders for 14 A350-900s, which are due to be delivered from 2016, and has options for another six more. These aircraft will replace its fleet of six Airbus A340-300s.
The Taiwanese carrier's board also gave its approval on 6 December for the airline to place an order for six Boeing 777-300ERs to replace some of its aging 747-400s.

Russia, China veto U.N. resolution on Syria
July 23, 2012 - 12:30 AM
Text size Decrease Increase
Russia and China vetoed a Western-backed U.N. resolution on Thursday -- aimed at pressuring Syrian President Bashar Assad to end his country's civil war.
British officials sponsored the plan and called the double-veto appalling.
Meanwhile, the situation in Syria continues to deteriorate. Activists say 17,000 civilians have been killed since the uprising began last March, and that the veto will only lead to more violence.
Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer (U.S. Army Reserve) discussed that and other issues on Capital Insider.

Street Photography - Potential equipment and skills to help hone your skills
Posted: November 22, 2013|
STREET photography is very popular with professional photographers and amateurs alike and has an ardent group of followers.
With the recent announcement of some cameras I thought I would look at some of the equipment and skills ideally suited to this thought-provoking style of imagery.
Casio is probably better known as makers of calculators than cameras but they have recently announced a very well specified compact camera aimed towards the enthusiast, which should be available at the end of the month.
The EX-10 looks beautifully made and features a magnesium alloy construction along with a useful 28-112mm equivalent lens ideally suited to street photography with its 1.8-2.5 aperture range.
With a battery life virtually double that of its rivals, you can spend a good day taking photographs without running out of power.
The killer facility in my mind is the articulated screen, allowing you to keep the camera on your waist and your head down – making you far less obtrusive to spoil that well observed shot.
A cheaper option could be the Nikon Coolpix S6600. The lens is 25-300mm making quite a difference to the Casio but you do lose out on the bright lens with only a 3.3-6.3 aperture range although it does still offer the articulated rear screen for those observational images.
Street photography is all about observation, seeing the potential in a photograph while also requiring the skills of patience looking for interesting juxtaposition of subjects.
A good friend of mine won the street photography category in the Professional Photographer of the Year 2013 with a really nice photograph entitled 'Love your job'. Take a look at it http://photothisandthat.co.uk/2013/11/08/winning-image-in-ppoty-competition , or search Edmond Terakopian, Love your Job photograph.
A lot of very good street photography is done with full size cameras but you do make yourself stand out from the crowd. I have managed to get into various locations where they would not allow professional photographers, like film sets, and taken photographs for the paper by using cameras with articulated screens and good zooms.
Look at street photography online for ideas.
TOPTIP: Whatever you do, don't change lenses, out in the cold until the camera acclimatises, or the inside of your camera will get condensation.
TOPTIP: As the weather gets colder, when you go outside your lens will have condensation. Make sure you have something to wipe it with.
'Around the house'. You could try taking an everyday object and photographing it in an unusal way - or see if you can fox our readers with an image of something unusual.
For those following online you may have noticed a lack of the blog for a week or two, I have only just noticed that they haven't been posting so sorry about that, I'll try to include some of the bits missed.

American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20, 2005 Iraqi and American forces in Baghdad and Tikrit have launched a series of operations this past week that have thwarted terrorist activities and disrupted terrorist cells in these two key cities, officials say.
In a Nov. 15 cordon-and-search operation, a platoon from the 1st Battalion, 2nd Iraqi Army Brigade nabbed five members of a terrorist who had been planning an attack on the Italian Embassy in Baghdad. The Iraqi soldiers also seized two vehicles, which the terrorists had planned to use in the attack.
Also on Nov. 15, U.S. soldiers from the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division, discovered wires, computer parts, timers and 14 AK-47 assault rifle magazines. The soldiers made this discovery in a home that they searched while conducting operations in southwest Baghdad. The home owner was detained for further questioning.
Other soldiers from the 2nd BCT, 101st Airborne Division discovered a weapons cache of 22 60-millimeter mortar rounds and 18 fuses on Nov. 15 while searching a farm in south Baghdad. An EOD team later destroyed the munitions.
An alert Iraqi Police officer discovered an improvised explosive device in a black bag near a bus stop in west Baghdad on Nov. 16. An explosives ordnance disposal team confirmed that the bag contained an anti-tank mine wired to a detonation device. Officials say the EOD team recovered the explosives and rendered the area safe.
In a three-day cordon-and-search operation that ended Nov. 16, the Iraqi Army led the way as coalition forces rooted out terrorist cell leaders who have developed, distributed and emplaced IEDs.
The operation took place in Sadr City and involved soldiers from 2nd and 3rd battalions of the 2nd Iraqi Army Brigade, along with U.S. soldiers. This joint force detained 23 terrorist suspects, while seizing weapons, ammunition and anti-Iraq propaganda materials, officials say.
In all, they note, Iraqi Army units conducted more than 1,250 patrols during the three-day period that ended Nov. 16.
U.S. soldiers, meanwhile, continue to capture likely terrorists who are seen loitering around attack sites.
Two Task Force Baghdad units searched and caught a rooftop lurker who was watching an IED attack while talking on his cell phone. This followed an IED attack on a 1st Battalion, 87th Infantry convoy in west Baghdad on Nov. 15, officials say.
11th Cavalry Regiment soldiers detained two likely terrorists who were loitering around an IED site in Baghdad on Nov. 15. The soldiers were standing guard as an EOD team dismantled an IED. Military officials say the likely terrorists later were found to have handled explosives.
Also in Baghdad on Nov. 15, soldiers from the 2nd BCT, 3rd Squadron, 7th Cavalry, killed three terrorists while detaining eight terrorist suspects after being attacked with small-arms fire and rocket-propelled grenades. Officials said the soldiers pursued the attackers and returned fire, but suffered no casualties or equipment damage.
In north-central Iraq, two joint missions between Iraqi and U.S. forces resulted in the detention of nine terrorist suspects last week, officials say.
The first mission involved a joint patrol in Kirkuk with Iraqi police officers and soldiers from the 1st BCT, 101st Airborne Division; the second a raid near Baqubah with the 3rd Battalion, 2nd Brigade, 5th Iraqi Army Division and soldiers from the 3rd BCT, 3rd Infantry Division.
In Kirkuk, Iraqi police and U.S. soldiers reportedly discovered small cache of weapons while detaining two terrorist suspects. Officials say the Iraqi police noticed that one of the men was acting suspiciously, so they questioned him.
The patrol escorted the man to his home where they discovered and confiscated a cache of two AK-47 assault rifles, two bolt-action rifles and hundreds of rounds of sniper-rifle ammunition. The police and soldiers also discovered a supply of batteries that are often used to detonate IEDs.
The raid near Baqubah resulted in the capture of seven suspects, five of whom had been targeted because they were known terrorists, officials say. The other two suspects tested positive for explosives residue and were detained for further questioning.
A Nov. 17 raid near Ad Dawr by the 1st BCT, 3rd Infantry Division, resulted in the capture of one terrorist, the death of another and the confiscation of IED materials. The soldiers reportedly worked off tips provided by previously captured detainees to conduct the raid.
When cornered, one suspect surrendered and the other attempted to flee by driving out of the cordoned area, officials say. The soldiers fired warning shots to deter the suspect; however, when that failed, hey fired into the passenger compartment, wounding the driver and stopping the vehicle.
The driver later died from his wounds while being evacuated to a nearby medical facility. His remains were turned over to the local Iraqi police. A search of the area turned up several devices used to manufacture IEDs and also terrorist videos and compact disks, officials say.
Soldiers from the 2nd BCT, 101st Airborne Division, discovered three 120-millimeter mortar rounds, 1,000 rounds of 7.62-millimeter ammunition, 60-millimeter mortar system, one 60-millimeter mortar and various homemade explosives during a Nov. 18 cordon-and-search operation in Baghdad. An Iraqi citizen then informed them that terrorist forces planned to attack them at that site.
The soldiers responded by conducting a cordon-and search of a house identified by the informant. This resulted in the capture of five suspected terrorists, who are believed to have planned an attack on the cache site, officials say.

WHITEVILLE—Junior guard Asheley Robbins and sophomore guard Tyera Fisher each scored 17 points as the North Brunswick Scorpions routed the Whiteville Wolfpack 53-32 in a Waccamaw Conference girls basketball game Friday night.
In the first quarter, Robbins scored eight points and Fisher five in leading North to an 18-7 lead. The Scorpions led 25-13 at the half, but when the Wolfpack scored to cut the lead to 29-18 with 3:35 left in the third quarter, coach Travis Fortune called time. When play resumed, the Scorpions went on a 9-0 run that clinched the victory.
The West Brunswick girls basketball team finished second in the two-day Tri-County Holiday Tournament, played Dec. 29-30 at East Duplin High School.
The Lady Trojans opened the tourney by routing South Lenoir 63-45. West led 15-11 after the first quarter and 28-24 at halftime. West then held South Lenoir to three points in taking a 41-27 through three quarters.
Breana Gause scored 15 points, hitting nine of 10 free throws, and Sheena Suttlemyre scored 14. Suttlemyre also had eight steals and five assists.
Four years ago, Rusty and Carol Petrea, the founders of The First Tee of Brunswick County, asked me to serve on the board of directors and to help with public relations. It's been a fun ride since then and I have never, ever been sorry I made the commitment.
January is a great time for boat shows and tackle expos, and if you go to one you will see a bewildering selection of lures available for throwing at inshore saltwater fish. The Bass Pro Shop, Dick's Sporting Goods, our fine local tackle shops and even the better Walmarts carry most of the same artificial choices. All of them work in the right situation, and you shouldn't be reluctant to try some of the newer models out there gaining fame for their success.
The Beachcombers played a modified Stableford tournament Jan. 2 at Cypress Bay. The winning team with a score of +17 was Paul Michal, Roger Dunham and Ed Kinney. Ed Kinney led the team with a +9.5 and an eagle on No. 15. Most over his points was Dennis McCann at +11.5. Low gross for the day was an 84 by Gary Gutheil and Paul Michal. Low nets were Ed Kinney at 65, Hal Riebesehl at 67, Dennis McCann at 68 and Roger Dunham at 69.
Nationally and locally, 2008 was a memorable year in sports.
In reviewing The Beacon sports sections in the short time I have been here, I found myself doing some math and came across what I consider the best local sports story of the year: the generosity of the many, many golfers in this county.
Readers of this newspaper know golf gets nearly a full section to itself to each week. (I know that firsthand: I edit in the results.) Golf leagues routinely report their scores and we dutifully print the results.
BOILING SPRING LAKES—The South Brunswick Cougar football team, who missed playing for a state title by two victories, had 12 players named to the Waccamaw All-Conference team. Six were on the first team and six on the second team.
Coach Gordon Walters, who in three years built a program that saw the Cougars this season reach the third round of state playoffs, was still riding high with what his players had accomplished. It was the first time in 22 years the team was in the playoffs.
Bolstered by its second-place finish in the Battle at the Beach, the West Brunswick High School wrestling team won a dual and a tournament during the holiday break.
West routed Myrtle Beach 49-26 Dec. 16. These were West's eight winners and weight class: 103, Dalton Walker, pin; 112, Dylan Bernier, pin; 119, Troy Ruane, pin; 130, Jake Boudreau, pin; 152, Deven Ruane, pin; 160, Antaun Miller, pin; 171, Joey Moreno, pin; 285, Dee Kent pin.
Five players from the North Brunswick High School football team have been selected to the Waccamaw All-Conference football team. Five more were selected to the Waccamaw All-Conference second team.
Below are season summaries for the players and coach Garry Bishop's comments.

Four West Brunswick High School football players are on the Mideastern All-Conference team. Three others are honorable mention.
Ryan Hill, Alfy Hill, Isiah Williams and Charles Brown made first team all-conference. James Johnson, Maverick Pate and Dylan Bowman are honorable mention.

I just came across some very interesting read. (Westeners forgive me if you have already came across or participated in this project- I know of no one in South Africa who has) The read was about the Mars One Project. It seems there are about 202 000 people who have already volunteered to take part!
Is Science giving us another home away from this planet? What are predictions of life in Mars? Is Mars stable enough with resources to cater for a 6billion odd of us humans,including other species like domestic animals (for our proteins, obviousloy)? How about plant life, marine life.
Views: 331
Given the lack of a magnetosphere, I don't think Mars ever had any sort of life based on DNA. At least none that ever lived on the surface.
Mars has a magnetosphere, it's just weak. There is evidence that Mars once had a more powerful magnetosphere in the distant past, including giant magnetic fields scattered all around the planet like umbrellas, and signs that liquid water once flowed across the surface.
Liquid water is impossible today because the atmospheric pressure is so low (1% of earth's) that water would vaporize. To retain a thick enough atmosphere for liquid water, Mars would have needed a more powerful magnetic field. Without it, passing solar wind strips the atmosphere off the planet.
If ancient Mars once had a more powerful magnetic field, a thicker atmosphere, and liquid water, the surface may have been protected from sterilizing solar radiation. This could mean Mars was protected long enough for indigenous life to get started.
But it wouldn't have to be indigenous life necessarily. Rock from Earth could have been ejected into space by the impact of an asteroid or comet and landed on Mars. (The reverse is known to have happened at least several times.) If rocks from Earth carried certain Earth microbes to Mars during the last few billion years, those microbes could have inherited the planet.
Mind opening@ Gallup's Mirror.
Lets look at this from another angle. Does the rest of the universe eally deserve to have mankind inflicted upon it any further by expanding beyond earth ? Imagine religion being taken out there, corporate bosses, egotisticaland violently inclined military, and most vile of all our greedy selfish narcissistic politicians.
I am all for advancement of science and engineering, I think marvels are performed every day but sadly on the back of that comes the slush and pig slurry I mentioned above. Solve the slush and pig slurry problem and THEN go for it.
As a physiologist I would like to make the observation that human beings are very ill equiped for life beynd the modest envelope we inhabit. To venture into space we need radiation resiliant sight and gonads, we need muscles that do not degenerate when away from gravity/stress, more effecient lungs and better blood pumps to mention a few things.

There are many SF stories concerning bioengineering space colonists, and explorers. Sadly their titles excape me at present. I suggest that the first colonists to Mars, from earth, be bacteria, algea, and lickens. Followed up with a multi-generational terra-forming program to amortize costs.
This program would be part of a space mining operation, that would also establish off-Earth habitats as a way to reduce exposure to possible extinction events. Sadly all who leave Earth will need to accept the likelyhood of either not returning, or suffering the ill effects of radiation before stable colonies are established. This will most likely stimulate a major push for robotic space exploration/mining, and/or intentional genetic modification/adaptations.
There have been terrestrial discoveries of bacteria, and some multicellular organisms that survive exposure to high radiation exposure, desication, heat, and pH. These might help with the first genetic experiments. Sadly, our future might consist of strains to our cultural sense of 'revulsion'.
Single-celled organisms may be resistant to poisonous radiation, but humans are not and won't be in the foreseeable future. Without a magnetosphere, humans will never walk the face of Mars without protective gear.
We humans (meaning most probably the Chinese and not NASA the way things are going) will probably establish a research base on Mars someday, but it will never be a terribly hospitable place for people who want to go outdoors in regular clothes and feel the wind in their face, lay down in a field of grass with a picnic basket and a bottle of wine, or throw frisbees for Fido to catch and return.
It is too far away from the Sun for humans to expect that sort of thing. On the whole, a much colder place.
Terraforming? The big problem is that Mars lacks a magnetosphere and so is unprotected from lethal radiation.
On the other hands, if living indoors under a dome is your thing, it might be tolerable for a while.
Terraforming? The big problem is that Mars lacks a magnetosphere and so is unprotected from lethal radiation.
It's not completely unprotected. The Mars Global Surveyor discovered magnetic fields on areas of the Martian surface (mini-magnetospheres) which are more powerful than those found on Earth. These cover about 40% of Mars and create areas where the planetary surface is protected from solar wind.
Mars has no powerful, global magnetic field like Earth, but it does have powerful magnetic umbrellas. These have not been extensively studied (although they will be) but they could be relatively safe locations for Martian colony builders, allowing a minimum of three years (probably much longer) of exposure at the surface before safety limits are reached. That's probably enough time to build a colony in a giant Martian lava tube.
Actually it exceeds our present cultural imagination!
Sadly in time we will be mostly using our imagination to survive climate change.
Sadly in time we will be mostly using our imagination to survive climate change.
Sad but true.
We are almost all still at a doggies and horseies stage of intellectual development. Most of my family are 'head in sands'. Many of my tight network of friends are 'damn we have to changers'. The stars and planets are 'far away', while 'climate change' is so close we can take change for granted, till the seas start chasing us from our back yards, or vacation spots!

By Jim GaramoneAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, June 28, 2004 The dedication and sacrifice of the U.S. military "has brought us to this hopeful day" of post-Saddam Hussein Iraq becoming a sovereign nation, President Bush said today during a short speech in Istanbul, Turkey, where he is attending the NATO Summit.
Sovereignty transferred to the interim Iraqi government from the Coalition Provisional Authority, which has run the country for 14 months, two days ahead of schedule in a brief ceremony today.
Bush said this is a day "of great hope for Iraqis, and a day that terrorist enemies hoped never to see."
The president said the battle for Iraq is the front line of the war on terrorism. He stressed that the return of sovereignty is a major step along the road to democracy and freedom in Iraq, and that Iraq can serve as an example to the rest of the world.
White House officials said Iraqi Prime Minister Iyad Allawi asked for the date to be pushed up from June 30. Authorities said this shows the interim Iraqi government is strong enough to take the reins of government and ready for the challenges that lie ahead.
Bush said terrorist attacks against coalition forces and the Iraqi government have been aimed at preventing the return of sovereignty. "The terrorists are doing all they can to stop the rise of a free Iraq, but their bombs and attacks have not prevented Iraqi sovereignty, and they will not prevent Iraqi democracy," the president said.
He said the return of sovereignty is a tribute to the will of the Iraqi people, and a moral victory for the coalition in Iraq. "We pledged to end a dangerous regime, to free the oppressed and to restore sovereignty," Bush said. "We have kept our word."
Iraq still faces many challenges, Bush said, but it has come a long way from the Saddam's regime of terror, murder, oppression and savagery.
The president thanked the men and women of the American military. "From the first hours of Operation Iraqi Freedom and to this very hour, America's men and women in uniform have been unrelenting in the performance of their duty," he said.
Bush said the "courage of our military has brought us to this hopeful day, and the continued service of our military assures us of the success of our cause."
America is in Iraq fighting for liberty Bush said, "and liberty is always worth fighting for." He said the coalition is working to further the cause of peace in the region by promoting progress and hope in the Middle East. He said this is the alternative to stagnation, hatred and violence-for-export.
He said the coalition forces will help Iraq as it moves toward democracy. In conjunction with the Iraqi government, "we are moving forward with every element of our five-part plan for Iraqi self-government."
Iraq's interim government endorsed by the United Nations has gained broad international support. U.S. and coalition partners are training Iraqi security forces to assume the defense of their own country. "We appreciate NATO's decision to approve Prime Minister Allawi's request for assistance in training the Iraqi security forces," Bush said.
Bush said that as the allies train Iraqi security forces, they will help those forces find and destroy the killers who have plagued the country. The allied forces will protect infrastructure from attacks, and will provide security for the upcoming elections, he added.
"Operating in a sovereign nation, our military will act in close consultation with the Iraqi government," Bush said. But coalition forces will remain under coalition command.
"Our military will stay as long as the stability of Iraq requires, and only as long as their presence is needed and requested by the Iraqi government," the president said.
"All this progress is being attacked by foreign terrorists and the thugs from the fallen regime," Bush said. "Terrorists know they face defeat unless they break the spirit and commitment of the civilized world. The civilized world will not be frightened or intimidated."
Bush said the allies recognize that ultimately the struggle in Iraq belongs to the Iraqis. Allawi said his people are prepared to fight and if necessary die for these objectives. "America, Great Britain and the coalition respect that spirit, and the Iraqi people will not stand alone," Bush said.

Also I participate in ClubBing where you play games to earn points for prizes. Also I click on emails and 3 months before Christmas I cash in. Also when I am purchasing items like Coke Diet Coke there are points. We collect them and then turn them in whether it be a magazine subscription or gift cards.

Yesterday's the past and tomorrow's the future. Today is a gift - which is why they call it the present

Obama has continued to meet with House Republican leaders to find a solution that would allow an increase in the debt ceiling. Without it, the country will not be able to pay all its bills beginning Aug. 3 and could default on its debt for the first time in history.
Pete Peterson, head of a foundation in his name that pushes for deficit solutions, praised the Gang of Six approach for balancing spending cuts with revenue increases.
"These six senators have done what we need all of our elected leaders to do: come together on a comprehensive bipartisan plan that addresses America's long-term deficits in a big way," Peterson said.
In addition to Chambliss and Warner, the group includes Republicans Tom Coburn of Oklahoma and Michael Crapo of Idaho, and Democrats Dick Durbin of Illinois and Kent Conrad of North Dakota.
Even if the Gang of Six proposal loses ground for political or logistical reasons, parts of it may survive.
"It's virtually impossible to do this overarching change before the Aug. 2 deadline, but these ideas are clearly in the mix long-term," Certner says.

News10NBC has been talking about the impending effects of the automatic federal spending cuts known as the 'sequester'. And Some local programs are now beginning to hear how these cuts will impact their services and more directly, how they will effect you. One of those programs is saying these cuts could mean fewer life saving cancer screenings for women.
Last year hundreds of women were able to get screened for breast and cervical cancer.
Money from the Federal Government made it possible for every women to receive care even if she didn't have insurance or couldn't pay. These cuts could now mean no insurance, no services.
Megan Mackenzie of Rochester was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007. She says she found a lump through a self exam and immediately sought help.
"The only way I can describe it is I went to hell and came back."
Mackenzie's quick action may have saved her life. Her cancer was aggressive. In 12 weeks, she says it went from stage one, the most curable form of breast cancer, to stage 4.
"I went through surgery, had a mastectomy and then from there went through 8 rounds of chemotherapy, 42 rounds of radiation and it was quite the long process. Almost took a full year for me to complete my treatments," said Mackenzie.
Thanks to self exams and screenings like the ones provided at the Cancer Services Program of Monroe County, Mackenzie found her cancer early. The Cancer Services Program provides everything from screenings, to diagnosis, to treatment. Even for women who don't have insurance and can't pay for these services.
Candice Lucas heads the program housed at the University of Rochester's Center for Community Health.
"Last year we were able to help more than 1,400 women get screened," said Lucas.
She's nervous. Her program is federally funded, and she says she's received word it could be on the chopping block. She says it could mean half of the women served last year, won't get the help in the coming year.
"Breast cancer, we know one in eight women are diagnosed with breast cancer. But we can find it early, and if you find early the chance of survival is greatly increased," said Lucas. "If we're not able to pay for these screenings for women that are uninsured more than likely they're not going to get screened."
And that's worrisome to people like Mackenzie, who says one single test can be the difference between life and death.
"Right now were all going to feel the crunch of lots of programs being cut. But when it comes to somebody's life, that's a bitter pill to swallow and we shouldn't put up with that."
Congresswoman Louise Slaughter's office says she has not changed her stance on the sequester, asking her colleagues to put an end to it, saying, it's not only devastating to programs like this, but the economy as a whole.
We've also put in requests in to our other elected officials, and we'll bring you those responses to you as well.

Tupper Lake On March 10, 2012, Tupper Lake teenager Colin Gillis left his home, heading to a party that he would not return from.
Two years after he was first reported missing by family and friends, New York State Police continue to seek leads in the investigation into his disappearance.
"The State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigations Unit located in Ray Brook continues to run down leads in this investigation," said Troop B Public Information Officer Trooper Jennifer V. Fleishman in a press release on the two-year anniversary of Gillis going missing.
"Although limited searches of the woods and water near where Colin was last seen will continue, a large portion of the area has been eliminated," the release said. "Along with those searches, the investigation has also focused on the people who would have interacted with Colin during the early morning hours on March 11, 2012, and have not reported that contact with the State Police. The New York State Police would like information about or hope to speak to that person or persons."
Fleishman said people should not assume the police have received information unless they have personally been in contact with the proper authorities, and that all information would be kept confidential.
The investigation into the disappearance of Gillis ranged from the backwoods of Piercefield, the waters surrounding the Tri Lakes area and Brockport University where Gillis , who was 19 when he went missing, was enrolled as a student.
According to New York State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation, Gillis left the Gillis home on Country Club Road in Tupper Lake March 10, 2012, at 8:30 p.m., telling his parents he intended to spend time with some friends.
Gillis received a ride from a friend to a residence located on Lincoln Avenue, then traveled to a party which was taking place at a residence on Paskungameh Road in the Town of Tupper Lake.

I had all intentions of sharing a recipe on Friday but as often happens, some-what controlled chaos ensued and I've been a veritable wreck. We were able to pick up all of my stuff from the shipping company, went to lunch with my parents, and set in to start unpacking on Friday. I laughed to myself as I was unpacking the kitchen only because I never thought I would say I had too many cupboards (a nice problem to have). I've cried numerous times for any number of reasons and cursed IKEA more times than I can count (both in and out of the store). I got bit by a dog on Saturday morning (I'm fine, my dog is fine- it was just a kerfuffle at the dog park) and instead of enjoying the farmers' market, I was relegated to the urgent care. I went grocery shopping to fill my cupboards with all the basics (it felt good to start over- I think I've had some items in my cupboards for longer than I should have) and started setting up my office, my own space.
Life is good and I'm home with M.
Thank you for all your kind words and warm wishes during this transition. I'll be back tomorrow morning with a recipe and an exciting introduction.

|WRNS Studio - City of Watsonville Water Resources Center
|Wednesday, 23 June 2010 07:36
Selected as one of the 2010 COTE Top Ten Green Projects, the new Watsonville Area Water Operations Center supports the larger Water Recycling Project, a joint effort of the City of Watsonville and the Pajaro Valley Water Management Agency to provide recycled water to farmers throughout the coastal areas of South Santa Cruz and North Monterey counties.
Photographs by Bruce Damonte
To display water as a seasonal resource connected to the local agricultural growing season, water is supplied to a tiled water feature only when recycled water is available to the site. In addition, rainwater flows from eaves and rain chains into swales, then is carried to retention basins to be treated prior to infiltrating the groundwater system. Native and drought-tolerant plantings, requiring less than 70% of typical water usage, are watered only when recycled water is available.

By Ana Ley : June 12, 2013 : Updated: June 12, 2013 3:00pm
A man was killed early Wednesday after losing control of his Ford Mustang along Loop 410 on the Southwest Side.
William T. Nagel II, 30, had been traveling south on Loop 410 shortly before Quintana Road about 6:20 a.m. when he suddenly lost control of his vehicle and slid into a metal guardrail on the right side of the highway. The vehicle crossed over the metal guardrail and collided with a metal highway sign, police said in a prepared statement.
Nagel, who was not wearing his seatbelt, was ejected from his vehicle, and he fell onto a grassy embankment. He was pronounced dead at the crash site.

Graphic designer Mark Blamire has re-designed the promotional material for Ecstasy, the latest film by novelist Irvine Welsh. The film, an adaptation of the novel by Welsh, is prequel to the now infamous and iconic movie Trainspotting. The film is a dark romantic comedy film adaptation of the short story The Undefeated, from the best-selling book Ecstasy. Directed by Rob Heydon, the film stars Adam Sinclair as Lloyd Buist, a drug addict who smuggles ecstasy from Amsterdam, alongside Kristin Kreuk as love interest Heather Thompson.
Blamire worked on the the marketing and design for the now iconic movie when co-designer at agency Stylorouge in the mid-90's. The agency, based in Charlotte Street in London, have been responsible for a variety of widely recognized work in the 1990's for clients including Blur, Crowded House and The Cure. They created the concept for the original Trainspotting campaign 16 years ago, which was given to a third party to adapt and take to market. Says Blamire, "They did a great job of butchering all the best bits and undoing a lot of the details that had made us so proud of the original work." (via Creative Review).
Through the power of social media, Blamire discovered that an "ugly adaptation" of the Trainspotting poster had been created, and he set out to "have a word" with the director.
In an interview with Creative Review, he said "DJ John Digweed has a cameo role in the just-released Ecstasy film in one of the clubbing sequences. I follow him on Facebook and he posted a link to the film's website about five months ago. As I created the poster campaigns for Irvine Welsh's two previous films, Trainspotting and Acid House, I followed the link with interest, only to find that an ugly adaptation of the Trainspotting poster had been created to promote the film."
Despite not working on commercial projects for a number of years – Blamire now runs Blanka, a website selling prints and t-shirts by other designers – his recollection of dismay at the original material being "butchered" fueled a desire to get in contact with the film's producer and director:
"I decided to contact the director and producer and say something along the lines of 'Come on guys, show some imagination, you're copying a campaign that was custom designed for another film entirely that was made 15 years ago.'" (via Creative Review)
Despite the expression of disapproval being, by his own admission, "a rant", Blamire received a call from the film's producer, Ashley Pover, who rang to say they appreciated his honesty and point of view. The designer's input aside, the production team had not been entirely happy with the work produced, but had become lost on how to move the project forward. When Blamire shared his comments they were happy to explore ideas with him in the small window of time available.
His approach was to create guidelines for himself to work within, as there was no traditional brief to work from per se; the initial direction was to make the material resemble the launch of a superclub such as the Hacienda or Ministry of Sound as opposed to a movie. The direction evolved to be a pastiche of Trainspotting 15 years on; to keep the essential feeling of the original material but to update the look and feel for the contemporary audience of today, eventually reaching the "pill packet" theme used in the final designs.
Blamire referenced the work of Damien Hirst, artwork for Manchester's famous Hacienda club and modernist design to inspire the final outcome which, despite a few disagreements between the team about the final design, was eventually approved in time for production.

Porterhouse steaks are especially prized because each one includes both a piece of the strip, or short loin, and the tenderloin, all richly marbled, which translates to heavy-duty flavor.
I use dry-aged steaks (the loss of moisture concentrates the flavor even further) that are about 2" thick. This recipe intentionally makes only a small amount of sauce – it's so rich you won't need more than about 2-3 tablespoons per person.
¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons dry white wine
¾ cup white wine vinegar
3 shallots, peeled and thinly sliced
1 piece bone marrow (optional)
4 sprigs tarragon
2 egg yolks
½ cup clarified butter, warm
¼ cup cream, whipped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon freshly chopped tarragon
4 tablespoons peanut oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 porterhouse steaks
4 tablespoons butter
3 sprigs thyme
3 sprigs rosemary
6 marrow bones
Start the sauce by combining the wine, vinegar, shallots, bone (if using) and tarragon sprigs in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat and reduce until only 2 to 3 tablespoons of liquid remain, about 15 minutes. Press the reduction through a fine sieve into a bowl and set aside.
Heat the oven to 200. Divide the oil between 2 large skillets and heat over medium. Salt and pepper the steaks on both sides and add them to the pans. Cook the steaks until the first sides are nicely browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
Turn the steaks and add the butter, thyme, rosemary and marrow bones. Cook basting the steaks with the herb butter and turning the marrow bones so they color on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes more for medium-rare.
Transfer the steaks to a platter and the bones to the oven. Pour the pan-juices over the steaks and let rest in a warm place for about 10 minutes. Cook the bones just until heated through, about 10 minutes.
While the bones cook finish the sauce. Whisk the egg yolks in a metal bowl until they froth and begin to have some body. Set the bowl over a pot filled with water that is so hot it is about to simmer. Add the reduction to the yolks and beat with a wooden spoon until the mixture thickens enough so the spoon leaves a trail. Remove the bowl from the heat and gradually beat in the warm clarified butter. While stirring, warm the sauce over the pan of hot water then fold in the whipped cream. Add the chopped tarragon and season with salt and pepper.
Slice the steaks and serve with the bones and sauce

Sponsorship Opportunities
Thank you for your interest in sponsoring the Joomla! Project and Open Source Matters (OSM). We're excited to share with you an opportunity to increase your visibility in our community!
As a fast-growing worldwide community, we are excited to share with you our sponsorship opportunities that allow our community to continue to grow wider and serve larger audiences. During the past year, the Joomla! Project has seen extraordinary growth. As a community-driven software project, we are humbled by the massive support and expansion of our community's work.
OSM provides fiscal stewardship for the Joomla! Project and looks for opportunities that let organizations, companies, and individuals aid the project through financial means. In achieving our goal to provide financial stability to fuel growth and support of the community, we have a simple golden rule for our sponsorship program:
The general content and appearance of each sponsor's credit must maintain with the non-commercial nature of Open Source Matters.
Why Should Your Company Sponsor the Joomla! Project and OSM?
Build a Brand in an Influential Community
Joomla! has strong brand identification, enabling you to build up your company's image. Our sponsors gain value from association with Joomla and our mission to pursue the creation of high value contributions to the world. Your investment in the project makes possible the continued production of high-quality, open source software harnessed by the world.
Increase Credibility and Be Memorable
Your brand has its strongest impact in the clear setting found in Joomla!!'s sponsorship opportunities. Our exclusion of heavily commercial sponsorships makes our sponsorship opportunities credible and memorable in our growing community. Maintaining a distinguished approach to your sponsorship is respected by our community and increases your sponsorships effectiveness.
Connect More Effectively With a Growing Community
Joomla! and OSM enable your company to begin a long-term relationship with the community in a meaningful way, providing another avenue of support beyond traditional Web advertising. Corporate sponsorship of the project will provide your company with credits in a variety of locations, including but not limited to the highly trafficked Joomla.org Web site and the OSM Web site.
Opportunities to Sponsor in 2015
With more than 300,000,000 visitors a year, and with an uptick in traffic and downloads expected in 2015, this is a perfect time to sponsor the Joomla! Project and show the world your support.
In the current economy, we have seen a spiked increase in adoption of open source software, and most acutely those projects like Joomla! that provide publishing and marketing tools for companies at a low cost. Joomla! and our community are positioned perfectly to help businesses, organizations, and individuals harness the power of content management without requiring heavy cash investments.
As the Joomla! Project continues to grow, our visibility into key communities grows as well. Since our codebase and community is focused on an open source ecology, the barriers to entry are quite low.
In short: Joomla! will see a sharp increase in usage and traction in 2015.

Teenagers selected to youth parliament
Posted: March 03, 2013|
TWO teenagers from Stone and Penkridge are looking forward to two busy years representing local young people as Members of the Youth Parliament.
The Staffordshire MYP election results were announced on Friday at a ceremony at County Buildings.
Matt Hall from Aston by Stone won the Stafford Borough and South Staffordshire election, while Luke McCormack from Penkridge was elected Deputy MYP for the area.
Matt, 16, who attends Denstone College, said: "I want to thank everyone who voted for me, my mum and dad, friends Tom, Will, Tom, Harry, Mia and Emily, and my politics teacher Mr Porter.

"I really want to move forward with my policy of making train travel cheaper, and develop a phone app that tells people in Staffordshire what's going on in their local area.
"My work now is to fulfil my promises and make people feel proud that they voted for me."
Wolgarston High School student Luke, 15, said: "I'm quite proud to get elected deputy in the first year I have stood.
I want to help make transport cheaper and help young people get into jobs."
In total four MYPs and four deputy MYPs were elected to represent young people in their local areas, plus a fifth MYP to cover the whole county.
They will represent the county in the West Midlands Youth Parliament and will also sit on Staffordshire's Youth Action Kouncil (YAK), the young person's advisory body to Staffordshire County Council.
