The Romney campaign is going after another one of Obama's perceived strengths, the auto bailout:
This is a bizarre strategy, however, as the ad is based on a baldy misleading argument:
As the ad says, loans became difficult to obtain from both Wall Street financial institutions and the lending arm of General Motors. Some dealerships struggled to stay afloat or were forced to close due to the larger financial crisis and as the government takeover and subsequent structured bankruptcy led to less access to cash, according to the Center for Automotive Research (CAR). And jobs were lost during the bailout, but only a fraction of the number that would have been lost without it. The structured bankruptcy, however, was estimated to have led to the loss of 365,000 jobs compared an estimated 1.8 million jobs if the federal government did not intervene, according to a 2010 study by CAR.
Even Jennifer Rubin thinks the ad is a mistake:
Is Romney saying that in a "managed bankruptcy" these dealershiips wouldn't have closed? If he is saying these guys got hit because the politically-connected UAW got special treatment, that would make sense. The ad doesn't say that. In short, I don't get the point of the ad. It seems to be written for the Obama campaign team and not the voters. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being Reagan's "Morning in America," this is a 2. Maybe a 1.
Romney's campaign is also still using the Obama's "it worked" quote out of context and ad nauseum:
The Obama campaign uploaded a recording of the president's Ohio speech today in what is surely a preview of attack ads to come. His new rhetoric hinges on a new study that indicates Romney's tax plan will heavily favor the rich at the expense of everybody else. Meanwhile, in North Dakota, where Republican Congressman Rick Berg has already used his mom against Democrat Heidi Heitkamp in the Senate race, now he's deploying a whole table of old ladies:
As a complement to Shelley Berkley's country western radio ad we featured yesterday, here's a hip-hop one from Rep. Lacy Gray (D-MO):
Nicolas Pistor has context:
Clay is locked in a tight primary battle with U.S. Rep. Russ Carnahan. The two were thrown together in the 1st Congressional District after Missouri lost a seat after the recent U.S. Census. The primary is next Tuesday, August 7. Olympic icon Jackie Joyner-Kersee's voice is mixed into the hip-hop ad saying "vote Clay" and "mark it down, the 7th." It also features Clay's father, Bill Clay, who has represented the district for many years.

|Spaying and neutering 101
|Wednesday, 22 August 2007 14:45
The following information was obtained directly from literature provided by the Watauga County Humane Society at yesterday's Spay-Neuter event at Boone K-mart.
Spaying and neutering pets is an easy way to help control the pet population- and it has benefits you may not have thought of.
Fixed dogs and cats are less likely to mark territory and spray inside houses, more gentle and affectionate, easier to train and much less likely to bite.
Spaying or neutering is a great way to keep your pet healthy. Fixed animals' urges to roam are reduced, therefore, they are less likely to run away, get into fights with wild animals, contract diseases from bite wounds and get hit by a car. Spaying and neutering even reduces or eliminates the occurrence of several serious health problems, including some cancers.
Fixed animals are also proven to live longer than unaltered pets. 80 percent of dogs hit by cars have not been spayed or neutered, and fixed dogs and cats, on average, live two to three years longer than unaltered pets.
Spaying and neutering does not make your pet fat and lazy, nor does it affect a dog's instinct to protect home and family. Male pets do not suffer any kind of emotional reaction when neutered, nor does the procedure affect his appearance or performance as a hunting dog or watchdog. It's necessary to neuter male pets- because it takes two to have a litter. Animals as young as 2-months-old can be sterilized. The procedure is safe and less expensive than you might think.
For more information, or to schedule a low-cost spay or neuter surgery for your pet, contact the Watauga County Humane Society at 828-264-7865.

The 30th Summer Olympics in London are on their way and the one thing still being discussed is the fashion of the athletes' opening ceremony outfits. In my opinion, each country's outfits were respectable, sharp, colorful and nothing less than appropriate for an Olympic star. However, as my friends and I watched the opening ceremonies we could not help but make comment about the outfits that made the top news in the states, Ralph Lauren's non-USA made clothing.
The opinions in the room varied whether it was right or wrong that the U.S.A. Olympic team's outfits were produced outside of the USA. As a small business owner who is struggling to maintain a business in this economy, I understand how important it would have been for the economy to bring that large order of merchandise to be made here. The boost would have been a win-win situation. It's sad to know that with an event that happens only every 4 years that another opportunity was lost to have American's surviving in our economy; the opportunity to work. And what better project to have American's working on than a once in a lifetime event like the Olympics.
Ralph Lauren never delivers anything but fashionable, classic and all-American looking clothing. However, one thing that was brought to my attention was how the U.S.A. team's outfits were the only outfits out of the many countries represented where corporate branding was not omitted. When my friend pointed out that Ralph's designs were highly infused with his signature corporate branding and less branding of the U.S.A. I had to think again. Although, my friend who pointed it out found it to be tasteless and greedy, at first I didn't agree wholeheartedly. But after two days of thinking about it thoroughly through the eyes of small business owner I had an "aha" moment about the matter.
Ralph Lauren is a world-wide brand and having the company's signature logo on the front of the jackets is not necessary. As my friend said, it's greedy and further I believe it's insulating that he wouldn't set aside his own personal gain of corporate branding and design a jacket to capture the brand and spirit of the U.S.A. Olympic Team which is larger than any brand. The Olympics is a time to honor those extraordinary individuals who are representing their countries, like the USA.
I would be one designer who would have created a design that yelled, U.S.A. instead of creating an outfit that screams, LOOK at my brand. Should there have been corporate branding for the opening ceremony outfits? I think not.
Food for thought!

Beloit, WI -- The Beloit College Men's Soccer team fell to Augustana College 1-0 on Wednesday at the Strong Complex Soccer Field in a tight, physical match.
Augie got the only goal of the match at the 37:46 of the opening half and made it stand up.
The Buccaneers had two key chances that both just missed. Tom Slusher sent a hard shot on goal from the right side as the first half ended but the save was made. Then with just over 18 minutes remaining, Marc Robinson hit a laser from in front of the goal that hit the crossbar and bounced away.
BJ Kiser made nine saves in net. The Vikings won the shots battle 21-6.
The Bucs look to snap their two-game loss streak on Sunday when they travel to stateline-foe Rockford College for a 4:30 p.m. match.

Guardian Core Chronicles Time after Time
Reaper signed autographs and several store keepers gave him free stuff, shortly thereafter the police arrived to control
the crowds. We must have been in the mall for eight hours that first day. Most of that time Reaper was trying on new
clothes. Etan called him a diva. Etan and I opted for Hawaiian shirts and blue jeans, and tried not to be noticed at all.
Each meal Etan showed us various popular human foods. Italian turned out to be my favorite, and Mexican was
Reapers choice. Etan had a good laugh when he introduced Reaper to hot peppers and dared him not to drink water for
five minutes thereafter. He was sweating and obviously in pain, but he made it. After which he drank plenty of water
then went back for more peppers.
Usually the only emotions Reaper shows are anger or agitation. But today he was like a kid on his birthday. By the
third day, the pod was full of his clothes and stocked with junk food. Reaper bought six dozen doughnuts to bring back
with us. We even visited a zoo. Reaper was bored until got to the reptile area. We showed him the poisonous snakes, he
perked up after that. Out last stop was a wrestling competition. We showed up, got our seats and Etan left to go get
popcorn and drinks for us. I specifically asked Reaper to keep a low profile. Unfortunately, the place made an
announcement that they were inviting anyone from the audience to try to make it two whole minutes with the
champion. Reaper was the first in line to fight the champ. I'm sure he intimidated his way to the front of the line
By the time Etan got back, Reaper not only made the two minutes, but was back in his seat holding the trophy and prize
money. He gave away the prize money to a child close by, but held the trophy as if it were made of gold. Etan walked
back in, looked at Reaper and asked "And who did you steal that from?" Reaper smiled and said "I didn't steal it; I won
it by pinning the champ. Are there any other competitions, I can dominate?" The champ stomped out of the arena,
either out of anger or embarrassment. Etan had just spent thirty dollars on the popcorn and drinks, and Reaper ruins the
whole show. Reaper had a look of reflection then asked Etan "Your planet's had thousands of years of constant wars.
You've got N inja's, Samurais, Knights, Wrestlers, and Chuck Norris. So how did you get to be such a pacifist?" Etan
chuckled and said "I'm not a pacifist; I'm a guardian in training." "Ahhh, same thing" Reaper said back. In spite of
Reaper taking center stage at the match we had a great week. It was good to have real friends again. The last time I had
called someone a friend, he rejected everything I taught him and started an empire. Master Selar signaled us that he
would pick us up when we were ready. As we secured everything in the pod Reaper was planning our next trip. "Next
time, let's go the medieval times. And also there's this guy named Attila the Hun, I bet I can beat him." I shook my
head at him and told Etan "It seems Reaper has had too much sugar."
Time for a change
Etan's comments
There was a sudden jolt to the pod. We had been hit. I peered outside see what's going on, as another blast rocked the
small transport pod. Floating in front of us was a small space fighter blasting away. Reaper hopped in the pilot's seat
and took off. We got hit by third blast as he activated the time field. When we materialized, everything had changed.
We saw a barren land of rock and ash. "How far back did you take us?" I asked. Reaper looked very confused "I
jumped us a few years ahead of where we were, just enough to get away from the fighter." Argyle confirmed "We were
in 1985, now we are in 1989." I was horrified. Could we have changed time? "Did we do this?" I asked. "Don't blame
me" Reaper said "All I did is beat some guy's butt. I don't see how that could destroy a whole city, though if it did that
would be cool." Argyle explained "It's not just this one city; the whole planet had been wiped out. Look here on the
monitor and see for yourself." The whole earth was a barren landscape of rock and ash. Even the oceans were gone. I
asked again "could we have done something to cause this?" "No" Argyle said "I don't think so."
Matt reminded me of a few things Master Selar taught us. It was about the true nature of time. Everything in the
universe has checks and balances, even time. You might think that by going back in time and doing a specific action
you are changing time. But time is like a rubber band it stretches and then pulls back. Trying to make a change in time
is like dipping an object in a bowl of water. While the object is submerged the water c hanges volume and shape, but
when the object is taken out, then it returns to its former state. It takes a lot to actually change time permanently. It's
possible but difficult. With most changes whatever you do when you leave goes back to the way it was before you
came. But a fe w things can be integrated into history itself. So you become part of what was supposed to happen
anyway. So either you are bounced out of the fabric of history or you become part of the thread.

The influence of a colony's queen state, time of year, and drifting behaviour, on the acceptance and longevity of adult drone honeybees (Apis mellifera L.)
R. W. Currie And S. C. Jay
Groups of 100 marked drones of known ages were introduced into colonies on different dates throughout 1980 and 1981. The number of drones surviving was measured every 2-4 days. Drone acceptance ranged from 8--88% and was correlated with environmental conditions at the time of introduction. Most loss of drones occurred within 24 h after introduction. The initial acceptance of drones showed positive simple correlations with mean daily temperature (r = 0.82, P < 0.001, in 1980) and the number of hours of sunshine (r = 0.58, P < 0.0007, in 1980, and r = 0·39, P < 0.01, in 1981) and was negatively correlated with daily precipitation (r = - 0.44, P < O.OOO1, in 1980) and relative humidity (r = - 0.51, P < 0.0007, in 1981). Significant partial correlations were found between the initial acceptance of drones and temperatures (r = 0.67, P < 0.05, in 1980, and r = 0·51, P < 0.05, in 1981) and with relative humidity (r = - 0.58, P < 0·05, in 1981). Queenless colonies accepted more drones (66%) than did queenright colonies (33%), but the survival rates of drones in queenless and queenright colonies were not significantly different. The mean longevity of adult drones ranged from 13-15 days (median 11-13 days) and did not vary significantly with seasonal changes in nectar flow. Survival rates of drones were not reduced by their drifting behaviour.

|The Game Story:
|April 2, 2005, Queens, NY -- Lafayette's Bart Seifert slipped a one-timer by St. John's goalie Dave Saccente (Lake Grove, NY/Sachem) with 55 seconds to play to give the Leopards (1-8) a 5-4 win at DaSilva Memorial Field this afternoon. The win was the first of the season for Lafayette while St. John's dropped to 2-7 and suffered their fourth straight loss.
St. John's Tom Michaelsen (Bethpage, NY/Bethpage) starred for the Red Storm and tied the score at 4-4 on a great move from behind the goal to beat net minder Chris Rosa at 5:35 of the fourth quarter. That would set the stage for Seifert's winning tally and big saves by Rosa who stopped 20 of 24 shots on a dreary and rainy Saturday on the St. John's campus in Queens, NY.
The game saw five lead changes on the afternoon and no team had more than a one goal lead in the 60 minute standoff.
Jack Rosson (Severna Park, MD/Severn School) and Patrick Zeis (St. Louis, MO/Christian Brothers ) added goals for St. John's in the loss. Seifert (two goals), Andrew Horton, Jon Paulson and Ryan Spitz also tallied scores in the contest.
The Red Storm return to action on Saturday, April 9th when they travel to UMass in Amherst, MA. Face off is set for 1 p.m.

Customising the Login Form module
From Joomla! Documentation
Revision as of 15:02, 22 June 2008 by Chris Davenport (Talk | contribs)
What does the Login Form module do?
The Login Form module presents site visitors with a form with username and password fields. If the user enters a valid username/password combination they will be granted access to additional resources on your website. Which additional resources they will have access to can be configured separately. See restricting user access to resources for more information.
Once logged in, the Login Form module presents the user with a Logout button. Logged in users who are inactive for a predetermined period of time will be automatically logged out.
To be visible to site visitors the Login Form module must be enabled and assigned to one or more web pages on your Joomla! site.
The Login Form module will appear in whatever module position it is assigned to in the current template. It is also possible to have a Login Form that will appear in place of regular content when a Menu Item is clicked. To learn how to do this see Creating a Login Form menu item.
To change the Login Form module settings
To change settings which control the information shown in the Login Form module and some aspects of its behaviour, do this:
- Log in to the Administrator back-end. To learn how to do this read: Logging in or out of the Administrator back-end.
- Click the Extensions > Module Manager menu item.
- From the list of Modules find the one called "Login Form". There may be several pages of Modules listed so you might need to look on subsequent pages. You can make the search easier by clicking the drop-down list containing Select Type and clicking the "mod_login" item (they are listed in alphabetical order).
- Click the Module Name, ie. Login Form.
- You will see the "Module: [Edit]" screen which contains three groups of fields: Details, Menu Assignment and Parameters.
- Make the changes you need to make.
- Click the Save or Apply toolbar button to implement the new settings:
- The Save toolbar button will save your changes and return you to the Module list screen.
- The Apply button will save your changes but leave you in the Module Edit screen.
- You should see a blue message: "Item saved." which confirms that your changes have been saved.
- If you see a red error message refer to Cannot save Module changes.
To enable the Login Form module
If you want certain (authorised) visitors to your website to be able to log in and view additional resources, then you must enable the Login Form module. To enable the Login Form module either:
- change the Enabled status to Yes (green symbol) on the Module Manager screen; or
- click the Login Form module name in Moduel Manager screen to display module's details, change Enabled radio button to Yes and Save changes.
To learn more see Changing the Login Form module settings;
To assign the Login Form module to selected web pages
You can make the Login Form module appear on one or more pages by assigning it to selected Menu Items. This is done using the fields in the Menu Assignment group on the Module Edit screen. To learn how to do this see Changing the Login Form module settings. The following list describes the settings in the Menu Assignment group.
- Menus: Is a radio button field with the following options:
- All: The Login Form module will appear on all screens.
- None: The Login Form module will not appear on any screens.
- Select Menu Item(s) from the List: The Login Form module will appear on those screens selected in the Menu Selection field.
- Menu Selection: Shows a list of all the Menus and Menu Items from which one or more may be selected. This field is only used if the Menus field is set to Select Menu Item(s) from the List. To select more than one Menu Item on the list, you Shift-click to select a range of items, or Control-click to select or deselect individual items.
To customise the information shown in the Login Form module
The information shown in the Login Form module can be customised from the Module Edit screen. To learn how to do this see Changing the Login Form module settings. The following list describes the various settings that will change the appearance of the Login Form module.
- Title: Changes the title shown for the Login Form module if Show Title is set to Yes. The default is "Login Form".
- Show Title:
- If Yes then the Title will be shown at the top of the Login Form. This is the default.
- If No then the Title will not be shown at the top of the Login Form.
- Pre-text: This text will be shown above the Login Form but below the Title. It may contain HTML markup.
- Post-text: This text will be shown below the Login Form. It may contain HTML markup.
- Greeting:
- If Yes then a simple greeting message is shown above the Logout button once the user is logged in. For example, it might say "Hi, Joe Bloggs". This is the default.
- If No then no greeting message is shown above the Logout button.
- Name/Username: Determines whether the user's real name or the user's username is shown as part of the simple greeting message.
Additionally, the "Create an account" link will only be shown if the Allow User Registration field in Global Configuration is set to Yes. To learn how to change this setting see Changing user registration settings.

Alzheimer's Disease & Related Disorders in Spanish
1. Are you OSHA compliant?
2. Are your employee records in order?
3. Have you completed and reported all CE courses? If you were surveyed today; would your company pass?
Nevco Education currently offers over 110 titles used for Continuing Education. Our programs include a full length DVD as well as a facilitator's guide. The facilitator's guide is an important part of the course work. These guides include a pre-test, post test, glossary terms, discussion questions, answer key to the testing, as well as a course outline with objectives and principals for training your classes. The administrator of this program will find this easy to use and your class preparation is minimal as Nevco does the work for you. When you couple the DVD length with your learning materials you will then have completed the total credit hours for your course. Our programs are interactive as well as informative making the classroom learning experience rewarding for all.
Our programming is produced in Fort Myers Florida in our Distribution Offices. We leverage our Expertise and Knowledge from three key departments which consist of Production, Education, as well as Marketing. Our team of passionate professionals creates on average eight new productions a year to provide to our customers the newest content in the industry. Education is our passion.
Nevco Educational Video, Inc. is a family owned business that was created after learning of a family member's illness which required nursing care above and beyond what the family could provide. An important aspect of nursing is the valuable training required to insure the best of care in any situation.
Unsatisfied with what was available in the marketplace, we embarked on a mission to create the highest quality professional nursing education that would improve the quality of life around the world. That is exactly what they achieved and today Mr. Wolfendale works to give back with his not for profit missions in India, as well Africa. Of most recent he was appointed to the Purple Ribbon Task Force on Alzheimer's to serve at a state level and represent the Home Care Industry of Florida.
We think of the loss of memory or the inability to recognize familiar faces, places, and things that comes with Alzheimer's disease or other dementias, but for caregivers, the challenge is often coping with the other behaviors common in dementia.
The list of common behaviors:
Paranoia - A disorder, in which the person becomes overly suspicious of others and, convinced that other people have intent to harm; theme is usually a financial matter or unfaithful spouse.
Sundowning - A condition in which older persons tend to become more restless and/or confused later in the day, especially late afternoon or at dusk.
Wandering - Aimless movement, often it is an effort to get to some specific place such as a childhood home that no longer exists.
Wayfinding :- Searching for something that may or may not be found in the residence.
Learning how to communicate calmly and clearly, as well as to introduce activities and hobbies that have been shown to be amongst the best treatment options used by caregivers. In our program, Alzheimer's Disease Level 1 & 2, we explain the following content:
1. How the brain works and how AD affects the brain.
2. How memory loss from AD and other related disorders differ from normal aging.
3. Other neurological diseases/conditions that can cause dementia.
4. Conditions or disorders that may result in symptoms that mimic AD.
5. How AD is diagnosed. Causes, cures, and research overview.
6. Stages of AD.
7. Symptoms and behaviors associated with each stage.
8. Challenges for caregivers at each stage.
9. How AD affects communication skills.
10. Strategies and guidelines for verbal/nonverbal communication.
11. Validation therapy.
Alzheimer's disease is the sixth leading cause of death in this country. The Alzheimer's Association estimates that by 2050, nearly 16 million Americans will have Alzheimer's disease. With numbers as large as these our caregivers must be informed on how to communicate effectively with this growing population to ensure a meaningful and respectful plan of care. At Nevco, we continue to improve the quality of life through our education and offer new programs for all your learning needs.
A Continuing Education Unit (CEU) is a measure used in continuing education programs, particularly those required in a ...

MTV's Twitter expert and first-ever TJ Gabi Gregg took a break from Twitter today to explain her reactions to Beth Ditto's new plus-size collection for Evans. Gabi Gregg is the founder of YoungFatAndFabulous.com. Read below for her thoughts!
Beth Ditto; Pieces from her collection.
Photo: Getty Images
Last year, musician Beth Ditto teamed up with the plus-size British retailer Evans to launch her first clothing collection. It was quintessential Beth Ditto: loud, colorful, and a little bit gaudy, and I absolutely loved it. Why? Because plus-size women are often told that we must wear head-to-toe black and A-line cuts to hide our curves, but Beth's clothing offered us the option of unabashedly showing everything off! That's why I was excited to see Beth Ditto launch her follow-up collection last week, with just-as-stylish clothes covered in polka dots, hearts, and even a huge, red lightning bolt. The pieces are definitely fun and versatile. Below are my five favorites. Read More...

BYU-Utah rivalry will likely thrive, no matter league affiliation
So what if conference affiliations have changed and it will be warm enough Saturday to tailgate in shorts. The Utah-BYU rivalry appears to be as fierce as ever.
Worries that Utah's move to the Pac-12 would lessen the intensity of the BYU-Utah game were all for naught, say those who are involved in the game or follow college rivalries.
Hate, or extreme dislike if you prefer a kinder term, doesn't know such technicalities of conference alliances or calendar dates, they insist.
Like Colorado-Colorado State, Florida-Florida State or Georgia-Georgia Tech, the proximity of the schools and the history are what make college rivalries special, not the logos the teams wear on their sleeves.
"It might be different because you're not in the same conference competing for the title, but it's the same rivalry," Utah linebacker Chaz Walker said. "There are still those bragging rights of beating BYU. It's for the whole state and all those fans."
Saturday's game marks the first time in 113 years that Utah and BYU will play as nonconference opponents.
Utah says it leads the series 54-34-4, but BYU doesn't count the years it was known as BY Academy and says the record is 51-31-4. That the two schools separated by 100 miles can't even get together and agree on the series record is but one example of why the rivalry is special.
This is the week BYU fans won't wear red (if they do at all) and Utah fans won't wear blue (even denim), the message boards light up and the term "bitter rivalry" becomes an understatement.
You might love thy neighbor, but go ahead and admit it: During rivalry week it's harder to do so. Who cares what conference the programs are in when your friend, relative or co-worker who graduated from that other school won't let you forget the score?
"I don't do much talking, myself," said Utah offensive lineman Tony Bergstrom, who has in-laws who live in the Provo area. "It's when you don't have to hear anything, that it's the nicest."
Mitchell Light, the editor of Athlon Magazine, expects that the rivalry will remain strong much like the in-state battles between Clemson-South Carolina and Florida-Florida State. They hail from different conferences, but due to proximity recruit many of the same players and have divided families when it comes to declaring their allegiance to a school.
"Great rivalries, in my opinion, are about more than jockeying for position in a conference race," he said. "They are defined by the tradition of the two programs and the disdain that the fans have for each other. As long as both programs remain strong, BYU-Utah will still be one of the better rivalries in the sport."
In that respect, it would be difficult to find rivalries more competitive than this one in recent seasons.
Five of the past six games have been decided by a touchdown or less, with two of them going to overtime.
Last year the Utes scored 17 points in the final quarter and blocked BYU's 42-yard field goal attempt as time expired to prevail 17-16.
It was a wild ending that made the game special, much like the John Beck to Jonny Harline winning play in 2006, or the overtime game won by BYU when Max Hall passed to Andrew George for the winning touchdown in 2009.
Afterward, Hall went on a rant, calling Utah and its fans "classless."
His comments stunned many on both sides and were used as added motivation by Utah's players last year.
That they got revenge in the end made it a special game for the Utes. On that day, it didn't matter that TCU was the conference leader. The Utes had beaten BYU, and that counted more than anything.
"This game, it doesn't matter if it doesn't have a say in the conference," Utah quarterback Jordan Wynn said. "It's the rivalry game and you want to win it no matter what. It's as big as ever, and you'll do whatever it takes to win."
Best nonconference rivalries
The Utah-BYU rivalry is moving into uncharted territory for the schools, which are meeting for the first time in 113 years as nonconference foes. However, plenty of other rivalries have thrived as nonconference contests. Here is a look at just a few of them.
Florida (SEC) vs. FSU (ACC) • The series is split 18-18-1 in the past 37 meetings. The rivalry was at its best in the 1990s when the teams were ranked in the Top 10. In 1996, FSU won the regular-season match, but Florida beat the Seminoles in the Sugar Bowl 52-20 for the national title.
South Carolina (SEC) vs. Clemson (ACC) • Clemson holds a 65-39-4 lead in the game known as the Palmetto Bowl. Forty games have been decided by a TD or less.
Georgia (SEC) vs. Georgia Tech (ACC) • Georgia leads 61-39-5 in the series known as the Clean Old-Fashioned Hate rivalry. The two schools are separated by just 83 miles.
Iowa (Big Ten) vs. Iowa State (Big 12) • This rivalry was so intense at one point that the teams refused to play from 1934 to 1977. Football fans everywhere should be glad the two decided to resume the series, particularly after Saturday's thriller, won by Iowa State 44-41.
TCU (MWC) vs. SMU (Conference USA) • TCU leads 44-39-7 in the Battle for the Iron Skillet. And, yes, frog legs are known to be a popular pregame meal for SMU fans.
Louisville (Big East) vs. Kentucky (SEC) • Overshadowed by the basketball rivalry, the football version is getting stronger, with Kentucky leading 14-9. Louisville has the edge in recent years, 9-8.
Colorado State (MWC) and Colorado (Pac-12) • Known as the Rocky Mountain Showdown, this rivalry game is played in Denver. The game has lost some of its luster recently, with both teams struggling. However, the schools signed a contract to continue the rivalry to 2019.

A California custom apparel designer gets a unique and stylish look with our faux stone panels.
Everything at custom clothier Shakabuku Designs is "one of a kind" – because they're a printing and embroidery company that specializes in letting people create truly unique shirts, tops, sweaters, blankets and towels.
You go in with your design, choose your pattern and then watch it get brought to life right before your eyes.
And to keep with the "one of a kind" concept, Shakabuku's Livermore, CA storefront is equally unique – vividly styled using our Wellington Dry Stack faux stone panels.
Made from molds of real dry-stacked stone, our richly detailed stone veneer panels perfectly mimic the look and texture of real stone; and are perfect for adding the look and feel of authentic rock even in a modern Californian storefront.
In order to keep a contemporary look – and to make sure the stylish decor doesn't overwhelm the merchandise – the designers at Shakabku finished their look by using our panels on intermittent accent walls.
These provide a custom look and stylish design element, but leave wall space open for adding shelves, mirrors and other fixtures and fittings.
But the great thing about our panels is that they offer that same flexibility after installation.
Made from tough and durable polyurethane foam, our Wellington faux stone panels can be cut to size with a regular wood saw, and attached to the wall with nothing more complicated than regular construction adhesive and screws.
As a result, fixtures like shelves, mirrors and even wiring and light switches can be installed right on top. Simply drill the installation holes through them with a power drill, and make sure to attach any load-bearing screws through our faux stone panel, and into the wall behind.
We think the finished product looks fantastic; and showcases Shakabuku's range of products. What do you think?

We invite you, for moments of quiet, to visit the Chapel of the Risen Christ. It is located on the second floor above the main entrance of the Medical Center.
Pastoral Visitation
A member of the Pastoral Care Services team will visit in your area. You can arrange a special pastoral visit through this person or simply make your wishes known to one of the nurses. Your own Minister, Priest or Rabbi is welcome at any time.
Catholic Sacraments
A Catholic Priest is available to administer the Sacraments of Reconciliation (Penance) and the Anointing of the Sick to members of the Roman Catholic faith. The Eucharistic Liturgy (Mass) is celebrated daily in the Convent chapel located on the east wing of the first floor. Communion calls are made between 10 and 11 a.m.

A Richland County man was sentenced Wednesday to a lock-down treatment facility for a heroin-related crime.
Joseph R. Barnett, 28, of Shiloh, was ordered to spend four to six months in a community-based corrections facility (CBCF), a form of prison which focuses on substance abuse treatment and education.
In November, he pleaded guilty to possession of heroin in exchange for prosecutors dismissing one count of tampering with evidence. Both felonies were for a March 8 incident.
As part of his three years of basic probation, Barnett must reimburse the Plymouth Police Department $40 to cover the cost of drug testing. He also was fined $250 and had his driver's license suspended for six months.

The United Nations-led Climate Conference at Cancun was not a diplomatic disaster, but for climate activists and grassroots groups, it wasn't a success either. Representatives sent from around the globe to hammer out an agreement on climate change were unresponsive to grassroots concerns about how to lower carbon emissions quickly, and how to ensure fairness in the process.
"Some grassroots groups are losing their faith in the U.N.'s capacity to produce meaningful results," Madeline Ostrader reported for Yes! Magazine. "After the United Nations expelled Native American leader Tom Goldtooth from the meeting last week, the Indigenous Environmental Network called the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change 'the WTO of the sky.'"
While gloomy reports before the conference worried that international negotiations could veer entirely off course, the representatives at the conference did come up with an agreement that fleshed out last year's Copenhagen Accord. It became clearer, though, that the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change process will not ultimately guard the interests of less powerful players.
Climbing over a low bar
Although diplomats congratulated themselves for their accomplishments, not everyone was so pleased, Stephen Leahy reported at Inter Press Service.
"It's pathetic the world community struggles so much just to climb over such a low bar," commented [Kumi] Naidoo, [executive director of Greenpeace.] "Our only real hope is to mobilise a broad-based climate movement involving all sectors of the public and civil society before Durban."
Indeed, this year's conference saw a greater mobilization of outside forces than Copenhagen did. But by the end of the conference, activists were frustrated with the UN-led process, Democracy Now! reported, and began protesting in the area near the conference, under the close watch of UN guards:
When the demonstrators continued their vigil past the time allotted to them, U.N. guards moved in and dragged them towards a waiting bus. The protesters linked arms, and the scene quickly became chaotic. As they wrestled activists onto buses, U.N. guards also seized press credentials from the necks of journalists, and detained a photographer while seizing his camera.
Running REDD
There was one issue in particular, Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation, or REDD, a financial tool that allows countries to offset their emissions, that caused concern among climate activists. As Michelle Chen explained at ColorLines, "From a climate justice standpoint, the deal lost credibility once it was tainted with REDD, a supposed anti-deforestation initiative that indigenous communities have long decried as an assault on native people's sovereignty and way of life."
The program would seek to set aside forests, through financial incentives that would make it more profitable to preserve forests than to harvest them. The problem, in essence, is that the program would take away resources in developing countries, particularly in indigenous communities, in order to mitigate negative actions in developed countries.
At IPS, Stephen Leahy reported, "REDD remains very controversial. It is widely touted as a way to mobilise $10 to $30 billion annually to protect forests by selling carbon credits to industries in lieu of reductions in emissions. … Many indigenous and civil society groups reject REDD outright if it allows developed countries to avoid real emission reductions by offsetting their emissions."
Developed vs. Developing
Balancing the interests of developing and developed countries has always been the thorny tangle at the center of climate negotiations, and the Cancun Agreement, critics say, favors developed countries.
As Tom Athanasiou writes at Earth Island Journal, "There's an even deeper concern, that, in the words of the South Centre's Martin Khor, 'Cancun may be remembered in future as the place where the UNFCCC's climate regime was changed significantly, with developed countries being treated more and more leniently, reaching a level like that of developing countries, while the developing countries are asked to increase their obligations to be more and more like developed countries.'"
REDD is an example of that sort of bargain: Developing countries have to sacrifice, too. But developed countries have, in this conference and at its predecessors, refused to make any real sacrifices. This round, it became clear that, in addition to the United States, other key countries, like Japan, would not be willing to commit to binding legal targets for carbon emissions.
Who benefits?
What's worse, developed countries benefit, indirectly, from the financial mechanism proposed to regulate carbon, Madeline Ostrader writes.
"Many of the proposals for financing and regulating climate are designed to earn profits for the same banks that brought the global economy to its knees," she explains. "Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase have been vying for a stake in the global carbon offset trade—a proposed economic model for cutting emissions around the world."
The movement of non-governmental groups and activists fighting to hold rich countries accountable has gained momentum in the past year. If international leaders are ever to move away from these imbalanced agreements, that movement will have to grow and convince a vocal majority of people around the world to support its calls to action. Only then will leaders feel pressure to write stronger, fairer agreements.

As usual, nothing real will get done, because of greedy companies wanting to continue their pollution, -- until our backs are literally against the wall. By then, much will not be able to be done, and what we can do, will cost a whole lot more. Small, petty, short-sighted thinking. People not thinking ahead for their children, but only concerned with the big truck they want to drive now.
I'm the Stephen Leahy quoted in the article, and am a sci/enviro journalist covering all this stuff on regular basis which you can see here: http://stephenleahy.net/
Glad to see many of my articles are cited on care2. And that most comments are reasonable and supportive.
And Mike while the Iceland volcano did emit CO2 it was a tiny amount compared to human emissions. There are lots of good news sources to verify that fact. Global warming is not going away and we have to deal with it or suffer the consequences.
nothing new since Denmark
Thanks for the article.
The big money is ruining the planet. But they seem to be like a snake eating itself. Eventually there will be nothing more to eat.
Climate Change - Are You Sitting Down?
All of you, out there across the globe, who have fought so hard to tackle the hideous enemy of our planet, namely carbon emissions, you know .....that bogus god you worship of "Climate Change" or "Global Warming" ......well, I feel it is necessary to inform you of some bad news. It really does pain me to have to bring you this disappointing information.
Are you sitting down?
Okay, here's the bombshell. The current volcanic eruption going on in Iceland, since its first spewing of volcanic ash has, in just FOUR DAYS, NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made in the past five years to control CO2 emissions on our planet - all of you.
Of course you know about this evil carbon dioxide that we are trying to suppress - it's that vital chemical compound that every plant requires to live and grow and to synthesise into oxygen for us humans and all animal life.
I know, I know.... (group hug)...it's very disheartening to realise that all of the carbon emission savings you have accomplished while suffering the inconvenience and expense of: driving Prius hybrids, buying fabric grocery bags, sitting up till midnight to finish your kid's "The Green Revolution" science project, throwing out all of your non-green cleaning supplies, using only two squares of toilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet tank reservoir, selling your SUV and speedboat, vacationing at home instead of Bali, nearly getting h
Why is this so-surely anything that keeps the planet safer and hurts no-one is good and useful
Stephen Leahy reported, "REDD remains very controversial. It is widely touted as a way to mobilise $10 to $30 billion annually to protect forests by selling carbon credits to industries in lieu of reductions in emissions. Many indigenous and civil society groups reject REDD outright if it allows developed countries to avoid real emission reductions by offsetting their emissions."

Actually they could regulate the climate with their HAARP technology, but they're not into that.
They are into 'georgia guidestones' stuff.

"Once it is gone, there is no returning," Dagwan said.
The area bordered by North and Stevens streets was once full of homes and is rich in history for the town's African-American community.
"My great grandmother was a member of that church," said Mary Ann Barboza of Hyannis, explaining how properties have been sold and commercially developed over time. "Even the home I lived in as a child is gone."
Barboza said that the church is what remains of the area's history as a neighborhood to people of color.
According to a Web site for the church, it was founded in 1909, and the 1/2-acre on which it sits on was bought for $1 by the trustees of what was then called Zion Mission. According to the site, the land was purchased with the understanding that it was to be used for "gospel services." Town assessing records indicate the main structure of the church was built in 1920. Town Manager John Klimm told councilors that the property would likely meet the historic qualifications under the newly adopted Community Preservation Act, or CPA.
"It obviously has played a critical role in this town and meets the requirements in this regard," Klimm said last week.
Town voters overwhelmingly approved converting Barnstable's land bank program, which utilized a 3 percent surcharge on property tax bills for open space purchases, to the CPA, which takes the same surcharge and uses it for open space, affordable housing and historic preservation purposes. The CPA requires that 10 percent of the annual revenues be spent in each area, with the balance to be used at the town's discretion within those categories. One of the immediate difficulties is that the CPA does not take effect until July 1 and the committee to make recommendations for funds has yet to be formed, Klimm said.
Town Councilor Harold Tobey recalls the church well. He grew up at 300 North St. next door to what was then a one-room church. He said that he would like to see the building preserved. Councilor Leah Curtis of Marstons Mills also voiced support for the idea.
Klimm invited councilors interested in having the administration pursue the purchase to contact him. He said Wednesday that no councilor had approached him on the matter, but he expected they would once the weather gets under control.

John Hedrick: Has Florida stooped to Third World tactics?
Imagine waking up to the headline: "Diebold accidentally leaks results of 2008 election." You'd be outraged. Fortunately, this scenario, so far, is just in the mind of the Onion, the satiric newspaper that recently spoofed this topic.
But what if forces are present to predetermine the outcome of ballot measures? Consider the following:
1. The Florida Department of State, contrary to law, is not posting results of any petitions filed after Feb. 1, notwithstanding there were hundreds of thousands still to be counted as of that date.
2. Contrary to law, the state agency determined that the earliest anyone trying to get a petition certified for any future ballot now must wait until Feb. 1, 2010, instead of as soon as the required petitions are submitted.
3. Florida is virtually the only state where the deadline for filing petitions is the same as the certification of those same petitions. This is a prescription for a train wreck.
4. For more than seven months, the state did not divulge problems bedeviling its database used to count initiative petitions. Three weeks before the deadline, the state stopped posting regular updates on its Web site.
5. The Legislature and governor moved the presidential preference primary up to Jan. 29, clogging the system at the Feb. 1 petition deadline.
6. Petitions were denied equal treatment. Some were counted as late as Feb. 1; others, submitted as early as Jan. 2, were not counted.
7. Petitions were denied indiscriminately. Some were disqualified simply because the signer's month and date of birth were reversed (common in many cultures).
8. The Legislature created a signature revocation process. The state made it retroactive for 150 days and directed that revocation petitions be counted first.
There's more, but you get the drift. After helping to derail the Florida Hometown Democracy amendment, the state's regulations can cripple any citizens' petition drive.
What can you do about this basic, institutional hostility toward initiative petitions? Gov. Charlie Crist controls the Department of State and he touts himself as the "People's Governor." Call on him — (850) 488-5394 — to order the agency to tally the numbers on all initiative petitions submitted by Feb. 1.
This is a matter of fundamental fairness. Florida already has too many black eyes in the elections department not to act upon this seriously. Proactive protection of democracy would show that Florida isn't already on the way toward becoming a Third World backwater — or are we already there?

48. In his first 8 trips to the NCAAs, Bo Ryan's teams are 7-1 in first round games.
49. No. 4 seeds are now 0-1 after Vandy is shocked by Murray State. Purdue, Maryland and Wisconsin are taking notes.
50. Bo Ryan: "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, its the size of the fight in the dog. And Wofford is the Terriers!"
51. Jim Nantz says "A tradition unlike any other" from courtside and everybody's head turns.
52. Bo Ryan, Coach K, Pitino & Montgomery joked that in terms of coaching age, this has to be 1 of the oldest NCAA sites ever.

56. UW players asked in press conf. if they're wary of the underdog 12 or 13 seed. They said, "Yes we are. We're used to being underdogs"
57. Guys went thru a tough practice this AM and are now back in uniform for public practice. Good thing we have 2 sets of unis.
58. The name 'WISCONSIN' won't fit on the scoreboard at Jax Arena. Badger fans will have to look for 'WISC' to find our score.
59. Jax traffic is much more painful when you drop out of the police escort. 60. Coach Ryan picked up some reading material on the history of Jacksonville U hoops after practice.
61. Practice at Swisher Gym on the JU campus. Didn't do shooting drills to start practice but the starters hit their first 6 shots.
62. Palm trees line the Boulevard outside the Arena and the sun is out... starting to look like Florida after all.
63. Wofford chose to take the 6-hour bus ride to Jacksonville instead of using the NCAA-provided flight.
64: If you are in a hurry to get to the arena don't take the drawbridge over the St Johns River.

By Joyce Lupiani. CREATED Aug 29, 2014
Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) -- A group of Las Vegas residents gathered on Thursday night to remember Michael Brown, the teenager who was shot and killed by a police officer in Missouri.
The group marched with signs near Carey Avenue and Martin Luther King Boulevard.
The rally wasn't just about Michael Brown though. The activist said the vigil and peace rally is a call for justice for all victims of police brutality.
Demonstrators also gathered in front of the White House on Thursday to deliver a petition calling for justice for Michael Brown.
The petition calls on the Justice Department to "fully investigate" the shooting and "fire" the Ferguson police office involved.
