COVINGTON - At least two county roads will remain closed indefinitely as engineers work to assess structural damage.The Georgia Department of Transportation and the county's engineering staff have determined that portions of Crowell and Brown Bridge roads will likely need repairs once the floodwaters recede. A sinkhole on Crowell Road will pose a danger to motorists, according to Board of Commissioners Chairman Kathy Morgan. "We can't determine the extent of the damage until the water goes down significantly. The road will be semi-permanently closed with concrete barriers between I-20 to Brown Bridge Road for the length of time until we can review the damage. It could be three days, it could be 30 days," Morgan said. Brown Bridge Road from Ram Drive to Covington city limits will also remain closed for a while, due to damage to a bridge. "We may have to send divers down into the river to look at the structure of the bridge ... The Yellow River was running so fast and so swift, the water eroded a good part of the road around there," Morgan said. The county had closed 15 roads by Monday night. As of Thursday, four had been reopened. "As the water recedes, we will not reopen the roads until we've had a chance to take a crew and engineers out to inspect the roads and bridges to make sure they are safe to pass on," she said. Morgan said she knows citizens continue to be inconvenienced by the closings, but added that safety must come first. "I'm sorry half or more of the population has been inconvenienced by road closings. We did follow (Department of Transportation) public safety guidelines. I'd rather inconvenience every citizen in Newton County than to find one person floating in the river," she said. Morgan commended the county's public works staff and all emergency management and public safety personnel for their hard work this week. Many have been working around the clock to keep residents safe, she said. "We've been fortunate we've not lost lives. That's the one mandate I gave the (public works) department: If in doubt, close it," she said. The Georgia Emergency Management Agency has been regularly flying over the Yellow River to assess water conditions, she said. Newton County qualifies for state and federal disaster relief funds, but it's too soon to know how much the county will get or when the assistance will come, she said. Newton County officials will be working with GEMA and other government agencies to evaluate and analyze why floodwaters rose so quickly and whether there is a threat in the future, Morgan said. "Our concern is, is this a one-time natural disaster or is it something that might occur with large amounts of rain in the future?" The flooding may be the result of stormwater runoff as much as rain, since runoff from DeKalb and Gwinnett counties flows into the Yellow River, Morgan said. "The more they build, the more imperious surfaces there are and there's nowhere for the rain to go. It's all about stormwater. This is a perfect example of the damage stormwater can do," she said. Crystal Tatum can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com. SideBar: Road closures Newton County road closings: · Crowell Road, from I-20 to Brown Bridge Road · Ga. Highway 138, from Rockdale County line to Ga. Highway 81 N in Walnut Grove to through traffic · Lower River Rd at Stewart Road · Brown Bridge Road, from Ram Drive to Covington city limits · Harold Dobbs Road, both sections · Sewell Road at Morgan County line · Sockwell Road, dirt portion · East Dollar Circle · River Shoals Court, off Stephens Road · Channing Cope Road

Hello, wherever you are. Are you dancin on the dancefloor or drinkin by the bar? Life has been hectic lately. More hectic than usual, mind. Thought I'd finally share a photo from Graduation, so you could see how much we all looked like Harry Potter. And about time I did too! Because this month marks the start of a new adventure: an Advanced LL.M. in Public International Law at the University of Leiden! Orientation was crazy, but the year's study schedule will be even crazier. That and having a life and blogging at the same time? Yaya, as they say, we'll sleep when we're dead. So little time, so much to do. Including a few missions, of course. Who would I be if I didn't bring the Upper East Side with me everywhere I go? Even Leiden won't stand a chance trying to escape the fate I have in store for it! ;)

Getting graduation dress panic. Kind of like your ordinary dress panic, but this time it's twisted up a notch, because what you wear on your graduation stays with you forever. Like, ever. There is simply no room for a fashion faux pas. So what do you do when nothing fits, and when you finally do find something it is of course sold out in your size? Endlessly refresh the page hoping for a miracle? Obsessively check your email with the hope of getting a notification that your size is back in stock? Only to finally get one, but then experience a fresh wave of disappointment when that one lonely number is whisked away right from under your nose? All of the above, darlings. All of the above.
Edit: Thankfully, wonderful friends exist who basically save your life. And your graduation. Big love and shoutout to Lisa, who is new to the blogging world! Check out her blog and show her some love! Go go go!

ORLEANS – Caleb Dalterio had a goal and four assists to lead Cape Tech/Cape Cod Academy to a 6-2 boys hockey victory over Monomoy on Saturday.
Both sides came out firing, with Cape Tech/CCA (11-5-3) getting first period goals from Jim Fay, Dalterio and Tyler Aalto while Monomoy (2-9-1) got two goals from James Hinesley.
The Crusaders led 3-2 heading to the second period, with Dalterio and Aalto's goals coming on power plays.
Hinesley netted his third goal to knot it at 3 in the middle period before Tyler Kennedy put Cape Tech/CCA back on top just before the end of the second.
Mike Hinckley and Jim Fay then scored third period goals for the 6-3 final, with Fay's goal coming short-handed.
SOUTH DENNIS – The Dolphins used strong defense to help Kevin Lacroix and Justin Haley combine for the shutout of the Canalmen at the Tony Kent Arena.
Lacroix, a senior, and Haley, a sophomore, helped improve to 9-11 on senior night. The defense helped keep Bourne (9-8-1) at bay.
Senior Dillon Miller scored two of the Dolphins' goals, giving D-Y a 2-0 lead with 1:55 to play in the first period on assists from sophomore Adam McClay and sophomore Tyler Baker. McClay opened the period with a goal on assists from Baker and senior Liam Burke.
Miller capped scoring, knocking home an assist from senior John Gallagher in the second period.

Restitching the Subcontinent
How do you solve a problem like Pakistan?
Nov 28, 2011, Vol. 17, No. 11 • By AUSTIN BAY
But young Pakistanis are now reconsidering partition—because the bloodletting continues. Oh, those thinking the unthinkable are the well-educated, the next generation of Benazir Bhuttos pursuing college degrees in the United States and Canada, or manning ex-im offices in Singapore, Abu Dhabi, and London. Bhutto's murder and the 2008 Mumbai massacre by Islamist terrorists in league with ISI officers spurred harsh moral reflection and intellectual reappraisal.
Pakistan as India's rival? Only in cricket. India has six times Pakistan's population and about 10 times its GDP. Year by year Pakistan decays amid corruption, Islamic terrorism, and economic rot. India's economic surge has made it a global power. Bollywood entertains Asia. India's Hindus and Christians and Sikhs and, yes, despite Mohammed Ali Jinnah's contrary claim, Muslims, too, have economic opportunities. Jinnah, leader of the Muslim League and Pakistan's first post-partition governor general, contended Muslims would never prosper if yoked by a Hindu majority. Jinnah was intellectually and politically gifted, a sophisticate with cosmopolitan taste. Sixty years of history have shown he was dead wrong.
And the new reunifiers know it. Their idea is preposterous, a fantasy, but it has on its side a deeper history than the last six decades. They argue that a reunited India would give Pakistani modernizers strategic depth: economically, demographically, socially, and geographically. The geographic argument has old roots. For millennia the "tribal threat from the mountains" has vexed northern India, from the Indus valley (Pakistan's heartland) and east beyond Delhi. The reunifiers see the Taliban and other violent factions as tribal raiders attacking the wealthy lowlands, with the goal of seizing urban wealth, imposing tribal rule, then pushing east. Antiquarian? No, insightful. Al Qaeda promotes a 10th-century misogynistic social order; it glorifies beheadings but says little about jobs. A reinvented pre-partition India would have the economic, social, and demographic depth to buffer and absorb the tribes and their turmoil. Pakistan alone does not.
Two years ago, while discussing the idea of a reunited India with a faculty member at the University of Texas, I pointed out that the reunifiers know they are engaged in a protracted, low-grade civil war, pitting Pakistani modernizers against militant Muslim religious fundamentalists. The modernizers believe a reunited subcontinent would give them instant allies. But consider the obstacles. Indians might balk at absorbing Pakistan's basket-case economy. (South Koreans fear a generation of paying for North Korea's poverty post-reunification.)We've also had six decades of hateful propaganda spewed by jingoists in Delhi and Islamabad—the heirs of Gandhi's "comrades" hellbent on personal power. They stoke enmity between Muslims and Hindus for political advantage.
The professor replied that the Pakistani intellectuals he'd met acknowledged re-creation might take a generation—but they raise the possibility and see its value.
Meanwhile, Pakistan risks collapse. Lawrence Solomon, in an article in Canada's Financial Post, argued that British India requires further "unstitching." Solomon's scenario had Pakistan splitting into Pashtun Afghania, Baluchistan, a Sindh state, and an independent Punjab. Solomon asserted that, with the possible exception of current "top dog" Punjab, "the new nations to emerge from a breakup of Pakistan likely would soon become more prosperous as well as more free."
Likely more prosperous and free? Maybe. A stand-alone Sindh might do well, for a while. In A Quick and Dirty Guide to War (2008), James. F. Dunnigan and I speculated that a Punjab-Sindh state might be more stable than Pakistan. But Pashtun and Baluchi states? I see a squalid future: These suddenly independent confederations slip deeper into misery, plagued by unmitigated clan violence while continuing to provide, with even less intelligence scrutiny, bases for well-financed terrorists. Punjab and Sindh still confront the threat from the hills. Where do they look for help? To India? That's the argument for restitching, not unstitching.
Abandoning the hills to their despair is a mistake. The tribes deserve peace and development. A dysfunctional Pakistan cannot provide either. A restitched India could, in time.
The Pakistani major at Ft. Benning repeatedly told me the lieutenant-colonel was an unusual man. The day the leg cast came off the lieutenant-colonel and I went to the mess hall. Over dinner he explained the major's comment: "I come from a hill tribe. We plaster bricks with goat sh— to keep the wind out."

Taipei, April 1 (CNA) A spokesman for the Ministry of National Defense (MNA) denied Thursday that the country is developing mid-range missiles capable of hitting targets in mainland China.
Dismissing as "groundless" a report carried in the latest issue of the London-based Jane's Missiles and Rockets magazine that Taiwan has a tentative plan to produce surface-to-surface missiles with an eye to attacking mainland China, MND spokesman Huang Shuey-sheng said offensive weapons are not an option for Taiwan, which employs a defense strategy of "deterring attacks with impregnable defenses."
The magazine said in an unattributed story that Taiwan has a tentative plan to produce 30 mid-range and 120 short-range surface-to-surface missiles capable of hitting targets as far as 2,000 km and 1,000 km away, respectively, in response to the mounting missile threat from Beijing.
Earlier this year, Minister of National Defense Tang Yiau-min said his ministry is building a low-level missile defense system, with two-thirds of the missiles used being produced domestically.

Two Wawa drivers charged, one impaired, one refusalThursday, January 09, 2014 by: SooToday.com Staff
On January 5, 2014 at 11 a.m., officers from the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) Superior East Wawa Detachment were directing traffic at a motor vehicle collision scene on Highway 17 in Laronde Township.
A black Ford F-150 was observed driving in a dangerous manner and was stopped by police.
Investigation by the officer led to the arrest of the driver, 51-year-old Alain Sirois of Richelieu, Quebec.
The accused stands charged with impaired operation and blow over 80 mgs.
He was released from custody and is scheduled to appear in Wawa Criminal Court on May 13, 2014.
On December 22, 2013 just after 1 a.m., the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) Superior East Wawa Detachment stopped a vehicle on Caverhill Street in Wawa.
Based on the observations made by the investigating officer the driver was asked to provide a breath sample.
The driver refused and, as a result, 42-year-old Kirk Whitlock of Wawa was charged with refusal to provide breath sample.
He was released from custody and is to appear in Wawa Criminal Court on February 10, 2014.

|Clinical pharmacy faculty interventions in a pediatric intensive care unit: an eight-month review.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23258969 Owner: NLM Status: PubMed-not-MEDLINE
|OBJECTIVES: The American Academy of Pediatrics and the Society of Critical Care Medicine have documented the importance of pharmacist involvement in pediatric care. Numerous studies have reported the impact of clinical pharmacy interventions in various adult care settings. However, in the pediatric critical care setting, the impact has not been well documented. The purpose of this study was to describe clinical pharmacy faculty interventions in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU).
METHODS: A pediatric clinical pharmacy faculty member performed and documented clinical interventions in a level I, 18-bed, tertiary care PICU. Information gathered included medication name, specific intervention performed, basic patient demographics, and length of stay from May to December 2009.
RESULTS: During the study period, there were 893 interventions performed on 159 patients over 66 days of service. (Average of 5.5 interventions/patient, and 34 interventions/100 patient PICU days.) Dosing recommendations and pharmacokinetics were the most common type of intervention (28.8% and 21.4%, respectively). Antibiotics and sedatives/analgesia were the most common drug classes in which interventions were made (34.4% and 20.3%, respectively). Ninety-eight percent of all interventions were accepted by the medical staff. The estimated annual cost savings from these interventions was $119,700.
CONCLUSIONS: The average number of interventions per patient in this study was higher than that reported in the literature to date. Dosing recommendations and pharmacokinetics were the most commonly recommended interventions documented. Although this study showed considerable cost savings by a pharmacy clinical faculty member, further study of economic benefits is needed.

Few can remember the jubilation that swept our nation following the victory in World War II. After four long years, America rose again.
On Friday, that same pride prickled skin across the land as a silver spire was hoisted into place atop One World Trade Center. The crowning achievement deserves applause not only from the construction workers who made it happen, but by entire nation whose strength and perseverance once again remains steadfast in the wake of adversity.
On Sept. 11, 2001, terrorists attacked the United States at four separate sites, killing nearly 3,000 people. New York's World Trade Center twin towers were among the targets. The new building rising on that site is well on its way to reconstruction with the 72-story Four World Trade Center and other buildings. It's slated to open in 2014.
The new tower's height: 1,776 feet, symbolic of the year we declared independence.
"It's a pretty awesome feeling," said project manager Juan Estevez.
Indeed. This defines America. Since our birth, we've been defiant in the face of the enemy. Now, with the spirit of '76 woven into our character, we prove it once again.
Words cannot adequately describe the miracle in Cleveland this past week that resulted in three women being rescued after being held in captivity for at least 10 years.
The women - ages 14, 16 and 20 when they disappeared - were found alive after one of them kicked open a door and ran to freedom, alerting police who rescued the other two women.
The story is one of indescribable perseverance. Officials say the women were kept in different rooms in the dingy house, bound by ropes and chains, and suffered prolonged sexual and psychological abuse. They were allowed outside only a handful of times over the past decade.
Ariel Castro, a 52-year-old former school bus driver, has been charged with rape and kidnapping. He's being held on $8 million bond.
Our own community knows the tragedy of losing a child by such horrible means and the universal pain that comes with it. We can only imagine how absolutely ecstatic family and friends of these three women must be upon being reunited, especially after so very many dark years. Their survival is testament to the human spirit. In the days ahead they - and all missing children - should remain in our thoughts and prayers.
It's difficult to comprehend how anyone could be so irresponsible as to toss their garbage into ravines, ditches or any other place, public or private. Such people are not only lazy, they're downright despicable.
Culprits need to be punished. They often commit such vile acts when they think no one is looking, and for that reason it's important that we all become the eyes and ears of the community and report such activity, including license plate numbers and descriptions of those observed dumping trash where it doesn't belong.
Page 2 of 2 - What especially frustrating is that the Oneida-Herkimer Solid Waste Authority has made it so much easier in recent years to property dispose of unwanted items. Between pickups, recycling events and other collections, getting rid of stuff you no longer want or need is a cinch.
Yet, the slobs persist. If you see one defiling our community, call the waste authority at 733-1224 ext.3232.

Tell Starbucks' CEO: Hands off Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security
Howard Schultz
CEO, Starbucks Coffee Company
2401 Utah Avenue South
Seattle, WA 98134
Dear Mr. Schultz:
Our families' futures aren't up for negotiation. American workers, retirees, and families have sacrificed enough. Please drop out of the CEO coalition to cut Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security.
Thank you.
7,348 Signatures ~ Jan 30, 2013 [PDF]
5,816 Signatures ~ Jan 30, 2013 [PDF]
Starbucks' coffee is a favorite treat for so many American workers and their families. That's why it's even more appalling that Starbucks' CEO is trying, with a coalition of fellow CEOs, to cut the vital services these families rely on. These CEOs are personally lobbying Congress to cut Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and everything else they can get their hands on, all to pay themselves yet another massive tax break!
Tell Starbucks' CEO Howard Schultz to keep his hands off our Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid.

Concordia completes voyage to scrap yardComment on this story
Genoa, Italy - The wrecked Costa Concordia cruise liner limped into its last port on Sunday, when it was towed to the northern Italian city of Genoa to be broken up for scrap, two-and-a-half years after running aground and sinking with the loss of 32 lives.
After a four-day journey from the Tuscan island of Giglio, where it sank on January 13, 2012, the 114 500-ton hulk was manoeuvred into place and secured at the conclusion of one of the largest and most complex maritime salvages ever attempted.
Prime Minister Matteo Renzi flew to Genoa to hail the completion of the operation which restored some pride to Italy after a disaster that was widely interpreted as a national humiliation as well as a human tragedy.
"This isn't a day for showing off or creating a spectacle, but it's a mark of gratitude from the prime minister for getting something done which everyone said would be impossible," Renzi told reporters on the dock, saluting the work of the salvage engineers from Italy and around the world.
"We have had a terrible page to turn, but Italy isn't a country destined for the scrap heap," he said.
In contrast to the night when the Concordia ran aground and capsized during a display sometimes performed by cruise ships known as a "salute", the salvage operation has been a resounding technical success.
After hours of preparation, dockworkers fixed the wreck in place in the industrial port of Voltri, just outside the main harbour in Genoa.
It will be dismantled by a consortium led by Italian engineering group Saipem and Genoa-based San Giorgio del Porto in an operation expected to cost 100 million euros and take up to two years.
The overall salvage effort is expected to cost Carnival, owner of the ship's operator, Costa Cruises and its insurers more than 1.5 billion euros ($2.14 billion).
The Costa Concordia, a huge floating hotel as long as three football pitches laid end to end with 13 passenger decks, was carrying 4 000 passengers and crew when it went down shortly after the start of a Mediterranean cruise.
Its captain, Francesco Schettino, is on trial for causing the shipwreck, which ended in a chaotic nighttime evacuation during which 32 people died. The body of one crew member lost during the accident has still not been recovered.
Work has proceeded with very few serious hitches since the wreck was brought upright from its position on the rocks last September. That was a multinational effort led by US maritime recovery specialist Titan Salvage which involved as many as 200 crew working on the site at any one time.
After spending the winter months secured in place, the liner was refloated last week and began the voyage of nearly 200 miles to Genoa, which beat rival bids from ports in Italy and Turkey to secure the demolition contract.
Supported by huge "sponsons", or buoyancy tanks, on either side, the wreck has been towed by two tugboats accompanied by a convoy of auxiliary vessels, travelling at an average speed of around two nautical miles an hour. Helped by calm seas, there were no major alarms during the voyage.
Environment Minister Gian Luca Galletti said concerns in France about possible pollution damage during the transfer, which took the Concordia near Corsica, had proved unfounded. "There hasn't been any problem at all. They should have a bit more confidence in Italians," he said. - Reuters

Blog: Hair Dye Injury and Beauty Treatment Compensation Claims
Thursday 13th Oct 2011
The horrifying and tragic story of Tabatha McCourt in the news today shows how important it is when undertaking any sort of beauty therapy or treatment, to make sure all possible precautions are taken.
Tabitha's story is an extreme case, but we have dealt with a number of claims against hairdressers and hair dye injury compensation claims after users have suffered allergic reactions and other injuries. Our guide looks at how you can try and avoid having an adverse reaction to hair dye, hair treatments or other beauty treatments and avoid making a compensation claim.
Very often hairdresser claims and hair dye injury claims are linked to the levels of chemicals in the product such as PPD, peroxide or other potentially dangerous chemicals.
Below are some tips in order to avoid having an adverse reaction and in a position where you have to make a hair dye injury compensation claim.
Hair Treatments at Home
If you are dying your hair at home always ensure that you complete a patch test at least 48 hours before you dye your hair.
You should do this every time you dye your hair, even if you are using the same hair dye you have always used. Often companies change the ingredients in their hair dye. Generally, they do not advertise any changes. Slight changes in the active ingredients (such as PPD) could be the difference between no reaction and a burn to the scalp.
Your skin also changes every 4 -6 weeks. Even if the ingredients of the hair dye have not changed the difference in your skin could also cause an allergic reaction.
If you have suffered a hair dye injury or have been injured by any other hair treatment or product contact us today on 0808 155 9070 or make an online hair dye compensation claim, no win no fee.
Hair Treatments at a Hairdressers or Salon
Reputable hair salons will ask for a new skin test every four to six weeks. This is for the same reasons as outlined above.
Professional tints often have large amounts of PPD in them and the salon needs to ensure you have not developed any potential reaction to it. If your hair is being bleached your hair should be checked every 10 – 15 minutes. The reason for this is two fold;
- To ensure that your scalp is not hurting, hot or itchy; and
- To ensure that the colour is developing in the right way.
Once your colour has developed it should be rinsed using cool water. Your scalp may be sensitive because of the application of bleach and hot water may aggravate it.
Hairdressers should do a strand test before any application of dye to ensure that the hair is suitable for the dye being applied. If you feel that your scalp is burning or you have an itchy sensation tell the hairdresser immediately as they should remove any dye applied.
If you think you have suffered because of hairdresser negligence and want to make a hairdresser claim contact colemans-ctts today on 0808 155 9070 or claim here to see if you can claim and get 100% of yur compensation, no win no fee.
Beauty Salon
In the case of tinting the beauty salon should carry out the same patch test for the dye that a hair salon would carry out.
Reputable salons will also ask you to complete a card detailing any allergies or previous illnesses that you have had which may affect any treatments they undertake. It is important to complete the card fully to ensure that any treatment you have is right for you.
Often, treatments are not suitable for pregnant women.
In the event that wax is applied to you and it is too hot you should tell your therapist immediately.
You should also ensure that the wax is removed in accordance with the recommended techniques.
Again, if there is any pain that you have not experienced before ensure that you tell your therapist.
If you have suffered a hair dye injury or think you have a compensation claim after a beauty treatment because you have been injured contact colemans-ctts to make a compensation claim. Call us now on 0808 155 9070 or claim online. We have helped people make claims against hair dye companies, hairdresser claims for negligence and beauty salons.

New Scottdale business features Pennsylvania-made products
Tom Bailey is hoping state pride will bring a lot of foot traffic through the door of his new business that recently opened on Spring Street in Scottdale.
The PennMade Outlet will carry products that have been made in Pennsylvania.
Four years ago, Bailey started an online directory listing only Pennsylvania manufacturers and agricultural producers. That endeavor was the beginning of the idea to open a local retail outlet of those Pennsylvania products.
"I was the market manager for the Scottdale Farmers' Market for four years and I saw that people liked buying local products because they were better quality and people liked the face-to-face sales."
The online directory is still active at PennMade.com.
Visitors to the site should follow the directions and link directly to the business' website.
Bailey said he opened the retail business because he found that people wanted to see the product and hold it.
"I also wanted to show pictures of the business and employees," he said. "I want to show that the buy local market exists, so I'm putting my money where my mouth has been for years."
At the retail business, located directly across from the Scottdale Public Library, visitors can buy corn brooms from Freeport, work gloves from Brookville and pizzelle and mountain pie irons from West Newton.
Bailey also sells Red Ribbon Soda Pop from Natrona, Clover Creek Cheese from Williamsburg, envelopes from National Envelope of Scottdale, home-cleaning products from Sun and Earth in King Of Prussia, Radius toothbrushes from Kutztown, Pennsylvania native plants and Pennsylvania cheese and music from local musicians.
Bailey said his main goal is for more people to sample the quality products manufactured in the state.
"Pennsylvanians have the power to buy quality products and help our local economy at the same time," he said. "We don't need government programs to do that.
"I want to see a strong local economy that will provide more jobs and more civic pride within our Pennsylvania communities," he said. "We can take care of ourselves and recreate a state where young people want to stay and work in their hometowns."
The fall hours will be Thursday 4:30 to 7:30 p.m., Friday 4 to 6 p.m. and Saturday 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

So, according to HBIH, the frontghoul of Ghost has been given a face. HBIH has alerted me to the fact that the nameless ghoul who sings, oh so pleasantly, for Ghost is none other than Mary Goore (real name Tobias Forge) of the band Repugnant. Hmm… Well, that is quite a genre-jump. At first, I wasn't sure this was accurate and then I looked at the pictures (see above). After looking carefully, I can definitely see the resemblance. How this discovery was made was that Forge has writing credits in the Swedish Preforming Rights Society as "A Ghoul Writer." This same name was given writing credits in the linear notes for Ghost's Opus Eponymous. Interesting. Well, that's that. I think that is enough credit for me to believe it. Both bands are killer, after all. Check out a track from each band after the jump. Thanks to Heavy Blog Is Heavy for the heads up!

As hard as it might be to believe, a new school year is only a few weeks away.
That means, of course, that parents will hit the back-to-school sales for new clothes, supplies and other items their children need for the new year.
But one part of the back-to-school routine that often gets pushed off or overlooked is ensuring students are up to date on required vaccinations. Every year, it seems, that slips the mind of many parents and there is a last-minute rush to beat the school bell.
Officials with the Dougherty County Health Department have announced an opportunity later this month for parents to avoid that crunch time. From 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. July 23, the department will be operating its Saturday Back-to-School Vaccination Clinic.
"We know it's hard sometimes for single parents or working parents to make arrangements during the regular work week, so we are having a weekend clinic to make it more convenient," Suzzette Profit, immunization coordinator for the Dougherty County Health Department, said this week.
According to local health officials, the required vaccines protect children against diphtheria, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, Hib, measles, mumps, rubella, pertussis (whooping cough), tetanus, varicella (chickenpox) polio and pneumococcal disease.
"Your child must be up-to-date on immunizations to enter or attend school or day care," Profit said. "Vaccines help keep our children well, and having them vaccinated is the law in Georgia."
In 2007, the state made some changes to the law. Children under 5 years who attend childcare facilities, Head Start or pre-kindergarten have to receive the pneumococcal vaccine and hepatitis A vaccine, or provide serologic proof of immunity. Children entering kindergarten, the sixth grade and new entrants into any grade have to receive a second dose of mumps vaccine or provide serologic proof of immunity, and have a second dose of varicella vaccine or provide proof of serologic immunity or healthcare provider documentation of disease history.
"These are vaccine-preventable diseases," Profit said. "They are still out there. While most people who are exposed develop mild illnesses, that isn't always the case. These diseases can be life-threatening."
There is also help for parents who are cash strapped. Georgia provides state-subsidized vaccines for Medicaid and PeachCare patients, uninsured children and others at a minimal fee, Profit said.
You can learn more about the vaccines and the upcoming clinic by contacting the Dougherty County Health Department or by visit the Southwest Health District's website, www.southwestgeorgiapublichealth.org. But whether you decide to utilize the health department or your family doctor, be sure to get this done. Childhood's risky enough without taking unnecessary chances with health.

From the Office of Rep. Phil Haire
Interim committees continue to meet at the General Assembly to discuss and study education, health, transportation and other matters vital to our state. The hope is that indepth evaluations of specific programs will lead to better decisions when we return to session in January.
This week, I wanted to share a few pieces of information about ethics, redistricting and the economy.
The legislature's bipartisan Joint Legislative Ethics Committee has issued new guidelines prohibiting legislative employees who serve at the will of a lawmaker from having dating relationships or sexual relations with registered lobbyists or state agency liaisons unless they disclose the relationships to the employing legislators. The guidelines followed the resignations of two members of the Speaker's staff who were found to have relationships with registered lobbyists.

I graduated from this school in 2006 and I really miss it. They really prepare you for high school and I am proud I attended there.
I feel that the school could be a better school if it were cleaned of the current staff. Beginning w/ CEO principal(s) NTA's and other internal officials. Excluding Teachers. Same people w/same ideas. Nothing new!!
I have two daughters both in kindergarten and I love their teachers. For the most part I think that the school is doing a good job. The one area that I would like to see improvement in is the school helping advanced students more. They need to be more consistent in this area.
I have two children that attend Hardy Williams Academy Charter school one in the 6th grade who has attended the school for five years the other in 1st grade and has been a student here for two years. I am pleased with the security around the school ( Thanks Mr. Simms and your staff) I just wish that they could keep teachers longer my 6th grade student has had 3 teachers in one school year and I believe this interferes with their learning ability my child that is in the first grade is on her second teacher this year Ms. Jenkins was a great teacher. I believe in my heart that Hardy Williams Academy Charter School is going to Excel greatly with the help of the stafff parents and students full cooperation. Lets continue to work on getting our test scores up. Thanks Mr. Highsmith.
I am a freshmen in college.I graduated from R.A.C.S. in 2004 and I loved it.Up til now I talk about how fun middle school was for me & how I wish I could go back.The teachers were really caring and I owe everything to them.I still have siblings who attend R.A.C.S and I believe that they are receiving the best education that they might not have received at a public school. )
The staff changes so much. There is no stability. They did have a good asistant principal ms shils but she is gone
This is my sons fisrt year he is in the 1st grade although they still have some areas to work on I like what I see so far. His teacher is very patient and takes very good care of him. Thank you Miss Green
I graduated 8th grade from R.A.C.S and it was the best 4 years of my life. I am now about to graduate from high school and I credit most of the things I do to R.A.C.S. Til this day I still refer people to my school.
I say my children had out of 3 years 1 good teacher that showed they were caring teaching respect and leaning little past basics.
I am very happy to say that this is my daughters 2nd year at RACS. I have to be truthful in the begining there was a lot of confusion with what teacher the class will have after 2 teachers. I would say they had a great teacher assigned after that. I would'nt be so quick to blame the school. Parent Particapation plays a big part in school.The expectations of the school is for the students to work hard which in turns requires the parents to also.Staying involved and continuing to be involved made a difference. She has had Spanish advance math and reads above her grade level. She enjoys this school very much and we look forward to her finishing out the entire school program up to the 8th grade.
My two sons have been attending renaissance for 4 years . The school was great until they received a new principle. 2006-2007 was the worst because of the principal
This school is absolutely incredible! My child has been here for three years and has made incredible advancements. The administration is very responsive to parent feedback and is constantly trying to find ways to improve the learning environment. The teachers and staff are well qualified and very caring. Every parent is encouraged to become an active member of their child's learning community. If they choose not to care it's not the school's fault. This is a school not a daycare or extended babysitter. Given the challeneges of the Philadelphia School District and Philadelphia in general RACS should be a model for the rest of the school district. Safety is also of great concern especially with the problems in Philadelphia lately. Thank you RACS!
My son started this school in kindergarden. He is in the second grade now. He has been doing a fantastic job here. He was on the honor roll through kindergarden and first grade. I believe with the parents involvement with the school the learning experience would be better. This year I also transfered my daughter there from public school. Since she has been in the school she has been a B and C student. Where as she was in public school she was a C and D student. I found that the school did a great turn around on her. I do not know what problems she was having but her skills became extremely better. The school does need to put in teachers that are better qualified to work with the kids but until then parent involvement will help a lot.
My daughter attends this school and has been for the past 3 years. In the begining (3rd grade) the school had better teachers (qualified) and more academic programs. Now this school has basically resulted to the NTA teaching students. I feel they do not encourage these children to their fullest potential. They have no extended curriculum (i.e Spanish etc) It seems like they have a teacher in the beginning of the school year and then they leave. This is her last year. I can not take it anymore. I think for a charter eucation this school is one of the worst.
Overall I think this school is great. We have been a part of this school for three years. Hopefully with my daughter starting kindergarten in september we will be here for many more years
The Administration at this school is horrible. They definitely need to shut this school down. I believe they are passing our children just to remain open. The curriculum is aweful!
I switched my children from the school they were in because I was looking for a school that offered a great academic program and extra curriculum activites. This school is horrible and will not be open for long. They have a after school program that only has space for 200 students but you have over a thousand kids in this school. They advertised the school so good that I was convinced. I pick up my kids 30 minutes late everyday because they didn't get in after care.

November 26, 2015
KENOVA, W.Va. (AP) - A small plane apparently low on fuel hit a power line and crashed into a wooded area near a West Virginia airport, killing all six people aboard, authorities said.
Shortly before the crash Friday, the pilot radioed the nearby airport, warning that the plane was running out of fuel. Witnesses said the aircraft was flying low, then the electricity went out.
"The pilot issued a mayday," said Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Jim Peters. "The mayday was based on low fuel."
Officials initially said three people had died in the crash, but later revised the death toll to six. The Piper PA-34 crashed less than two miles from the Tri-State Airport near the Ohio and Kentucky state lines.
Peters said Tri-State controllers were working with the pilot when the plane made a sudden 180-degree turn and they lost contact.
FAA spokeswoman Arlene Salac didn't know where the plane had taken off from or where it was headed.

Trend: Clean technology could be a major business opportunity.
GigaOM picks five reasons why the mix of tech, business and green is going to be on massive opportunity for innovators. Excerpts below.
My dream: significant breakthroughs will help us achieve energy independence from OPEC in the near future.
Link: GigaOM » 5 reasons for the eco-tech boom.
1). Bigger business revolution than the Internet: Some analysts and investors are starting to call the business of clean technology a bigger opportunity than the Internet.
2). Web as the green organizer: Green is the latest fodder for social networks, web 2.0 services, blogging (us) and videoblogging. Learning about and collaborating on eco-friendly practices is easier now than its ever been with grass roots web tools, a broadband connection and a passionate community. Today Business Objects and nonprofit Zerofootprint Toronto launched an online footprint calculator and social network. Yahoo launched its green site yesterday. And if you've never read Hugg, the green Digg, then seriously, go check it out.
3). IT needs earth-friendly: The costs of powering computing is reaching close to the cost of the data centers themselves. Companies like Google that need massive data centers don't like the sound of that.
4). Gore's gang — business leaders join in: Gore used to be the quintessential symbol of the intersection of business (savvy investor), tech (he, uh, invented the Internet right?) and green (need we say An Inconvenient Truth). Now all the big business leaders are joining the eco club.
5). Decentralized: In some ways the distribution of digital content driven by the Internet, is going the same way as the distribution of energy - decentralizing.

LAST UPDATED: 7:33 p.m. HST, May 2, 2013
The Hawaii Legislature concluded its 2013 legislative session today as lawmakers in both the House and the Senate met to vote on the handful of bills that remained after months of debates.
One bill approved today requires adults to wear seat belts when sitting in the back seat of a car on a public highway. Children are already required to wear seat belts.
Lawmakers also decided to advance a bill for stricter campaign finance reporting requirements.
Sen. Clayton Hee says the measure is a step forward for transparency and accountability.
Not all of today's bills were approved. The state Senate rejected a bill to stop people from lying down disruptively in bus stops.
The agenda for today's final session was particularly slim compared with Tuesday's meeting, when House lawmakers continued debating bills into the night.
The Legislature passed most of its proposals on Tuesday, including a $23.8 billion state budget and Gov. Neil Abercrombie's initiatives for energy, entrepreneurship and education.
After each chamber adjourned their respective sessions, all lawmakers joined hands in the House chamber to sing together.
Because Hawaii has a part-time Legislature, lawmakers don't plan to meet to vote on bills again until next year.
they must have decided to quit early to concentrate on protecting their seats while attacking seats left unguarded.

Northern Cardinals are a medium-sized songbird with short, rounded wings.
They are about 9 inches in length, they have a long tail, a heavy conical bill, and a crest. They are beautiful birds and most birdwatchers love to have them come to their feeders.
Males are nearly all brilliant red. The coral red bill is surrounded by a mask of black that extends to a dark eye and includes the chin and throat. Legs and feet are dark red.
The female is soft grayish brown on the back with variable areas of red on the tail, crest, and wings. The underparts are a warm pinkish brown. A female Cardinal's coral red bill is also surrounded by darker but not black feathers, so her mask is not as distinct as the male's.
Females are slightly smaller than males.
The adult Cardinal food consist of insects, spiders, wild fruits, berries, and weed seeds. Preferring to perch while feeding at bird feeders, the ideal cardinal bird feeder is the hopper style and the window hopper pictured to the right is the perfect feeder for Cardinals.
Two seed types that these birds like are, Black-oil sunflower seed and safflower seed.

Are you kidding me? This overtime HAS BEEN ALL DEVILS. What game are you even watching?
Shots are pretty even, but we only have one or two high-quality scoring chances. Not sure about them since I turn away when the Panthers have the puck. But the power play was typically ****, I don't think anyone's dominating.
I'm just seriously tired of this...between all the nonsense the Jets pull, the Mets 2007-08 finishes and the Devils the last five years, I have zero patience left for teams that constantly choke. And in this case the Devils losing means MAJOR changes.

I've been doing some tests over kmixer effect, both using standard waveout and directsound, connecting my TBSC digital output to my Audiophile digital input, under WinXP (no SP1), and I'm sure that with a single stream at 48 KHz, with the TBSC mixer volume at max, the kmixer doesn't touch a bit of the audio stream, it's sent bit-perfectly to the output of the card. At 44.1 KHz I can't be so conclusive, since the TBSC resamples everything to 48 KHz and I've had some problems to test it the same way, but according to my analog measurements in loopback mode of Audiophile output, there is no trace of signal degradation over the 44.1 KHz played data.
...So it's very possible that this kmixer sounding worse than ASIO or k.streaming is our old friend mr. placebo entering into scene again.
Anyway, I'll do some more tests in the future.

thomaspf, there's one thing I don't understand... with my M-Audio Audiophile it is impossible to loopback the digital in and out, because, as Pio says, with this card, in order to record a spdif signal the clock must be set to external in order to lock the card with the incoming spdif data, so the internal clock is disabled, and if the external clock is disabled no clock can be sent to the digital output.

I have a 2012 Titanium Hatchback with the same transmission.
I love how it works.
It is NOT a normal automatic....so get used to it.
It shifts when it needs to and you have to learn how to drive it. I have so much fun in SPORT mode zipping around the country roads near our camp in Lewisburg, WV.
You let off the gas, tranny stays in the gear it's in and if you touch the brakes it down shift to get you through that sharp turn easier and you have full power when you come out of the turn.
I rarely use the +/- button to shift, because the tranny is so intelligent on it's own.
BEST CAR I'VE DRIVEN out of the 24 cars I've had in my 36 years of driving. :)
I recently drove a 2012 Focus for several weeks (rental after my old car was totaled).
I really like the dual clutch transmission.
The car has a very european feel.
Yes, it hesitates off the line because of tall gearing, but once the car gets moving, it flies.
Styling, performance, great interior material quality.
This car has it all.
I also bought a 2012 Ford focus SEL 4 door March 31, 2012--and you are absolutely right this transmission is HORRIBLE!!!! Ford should be ashamed of themselves for putting something together that looks so pretty but drives like a bucking horse. It shimmies, it shakes, it lurches, it sounds like it's grinding gears EVERY time you take off from a stop, just plain disgusting. Have taken it to service twice in the 3 months I've owned because I keep thinking something is wrong with the transmission only to be told "this is the way this transmission is supposed to operate" REALLY!?!?!?!? So Ford knows they put a joke of a transmission in this car??? Utterly disgusting.
Spoke with a Regional Sales Representative at Ford just a bit ago who told me "we're sorry you're not pleased with the vehicle but since it is not a repair issue there is nothing we can do. You are welcome to take the car to another service department to have it checked again" SURE--I want to take this car to the shop every day-that's absolutely why I bought it?!
Wish I had bought an old klunker car instead, at least then I would understand why it drove horribly. Never will I purchase a Ford vehicle again, buyer beware.
We asked about the sputtering starts from a standstill and were told it is normal during the first few thousand miles' breakin period. Is this true? We like everything about our 2012 Focus SE Hatchback except this.
This is the way a dual clutch transmission is supposed to work! Yes, it's not perfect, this is a relatively new application in production cars. Up until recently it's only been used in racing cars. And yes, it's made in Mexico. So, I agree Ford could have done a better job, but once you learn how to use it, it's not a problem. It makes the car more fuel efficient, And when you floor the accelerator pedal, it just works so quickly to shift gears and the Focus takes off!
Love the posts.. oh get use to basically sitting there for second or two then flying out into lanes of traffic. That is so fun when crossing lanes of traffic leaving a store. You push on the gas the car should go and not need a count down to go time.
This car is absolutely HORRIBLE. I understand the dual clutch transmission and whatever BS they want to throw at us, but WHY DOES THIS CAR NOT PERFORM LIKE THIS IN TEST DRIVES!?!?! Someone wrote that they were told the jerking is normal in the first thousand miles? Mine has 55,000 and JUST starting doing this. For my car to just begin driving like this is NOT normal. Ford needs to fix this and FAST. And if they plan on keeping this tranmission in their cars, maybe they should hire some intelligent sales people and mechanics who can properly explain the ins and outs of the transmissions so those of us who do not want to be Ricky Bobby can stay clear.

Family photo of Bret Moody in the hospital with fungal meningitis earlier this year.
- Filed Under
After being treated with drugs from New England Compounding Center, 52-year-old Bret Moody was told he has fungal meningitis. He's infected with Aspergillus, the first contaminant found in a national outbreak of illness tied to tainted medication.But when health officials count the nearly 500 people sickened by the moldy drugs, they don't include Moody and others like him who fail to match the profile of most victims.
Moody, who also has been diagnosed with leukemia, is one of many patients nationwide who question whether health officials are undercounting the victims of the crisis.
