1988-03-05 Sumbu Kalambay w pts 12 Mike McCallum, Sports Palace, Pesaro, Italy - WBA
1988-03-05 Sumbu Kalambay w pts 12 Mike McCallum, Sports Palace, Pesaro, Italy - WBA. Referee: John Coyle. Scorecards: 116-115, 115-114, 118-114. In what was a huge upset, Kalambay (159) retained his title against the odds-on favourite McCallum (158¾), who had been expected to win inside the distance. Although McCallum constantly stalked Kalambay there were no knockdowns as the latter gave a great display of defensive boxing, making his rival miss while picking up points with left jabs and counters. Even when McCallum landed Kalambay was able to manoeuvre himself out of harm's way and it was he who landed the more significant punches, a big right clearly rocking the Jamaican in the tenth. The last two sessions saw McCallum trying desperately to find the punch to turn things his way, but Kalambay was happy to coast to the final bell without taking any further risks.

GEORGETOWN, Guyana (AP) - Guyana's top health official is urging
popular singers to stop soaking their lyrics in rum.
Health Minister Leslie Ramsammy says recent radio hits such as "Bring De Rum" and "Rum Till I Die" are undermining efforts to reduce alcohol abuse in Guyana.
The health ministry is conducting surveys to evaluate alcohol's influence on popular culture, including chutney, a style of dance music laced with Caribbean and East Indian rhythms.
Ramsammy said Saturday that he was not suggesting a ban on rum-drinking songs but called for artists to focus more on positive messages.

The Senate Finance Committee's health care reform bill would cost $829 billion and reduce the budget deficit by $81 billion over a decade beginning next year, according to the cost analysis report of the bill that the Congressional Budget Office released yesterday, the New York Times reports (Pear/Herszenhorn, New York Times, 10/8).
According to the report, the committee's bill also would expand health coverage to 29 million more people by 2019 -- ensuring that as many as 94% of nonelderly U.S. residents would have insurance by that year (Young, The Hill, 10/7). That figure is up from 83% of nonelderly U.S. residents currently.
The report noted that 25 million residents would remain uninsured under the legislation, about one-third of whom would be undocumented immigrants.
The 27-page report stated, "The added revenues and cost savings [from the bill] are projected to grow more rapidly than the cost of the coverage expansion," adding, "Consequently, CBO expects that the proposal, if enacted, would reduce federal budget deficits (beyond 2019) relative to those projected under current law" by up to one-half of 1% of the national gross domestic product.
According to the Washington Post, those spending reductions could total hundreds of billions of dollars (Montgomery/Murray, Washington Post, 10/8).
According to the CBO report, the bill would be more costly than the agency's original $774 billion estimate of Finance Committee Chair Max Baucus' (D-Mont.) initial draft proposal.
However, the legislation would reduce the federal deficit by $32 billion more than Baucus' original plan.
With the score, the panel's bill becomes the only one of five separate proposals from House and Senate committees that would achieve President Obama's goal to expand access to health coverage without increasing the deficit (New York Times, 10/8).
According to the Post, much of the added cost came from the committee's decision to include more generous subsidies to help U.S. residents purchase private insurance through a network of state-run exchanges (Washington Post, 10/8).
The exchanges would help as many as 23 million people who do not receive health benefits at work or if they work for small businesses.
U.S. residents would be required to obtain some level of coverage, many by using tax credits that they would be eligible to receive. U.S. residents would be eligible for the subsidies if their annual income is between 133% and 300% of the federal poverty level.
U.S. residents whose incomes are between 300% and 400% of the poverty threshold also would be eligible for limited assistance (The Hill, 10/7).
Other Provisions
The CBO report also said that the bill would:
Baucus' Reaction
Shortly after the report was released, Baucus told reporters that the analysis is "good news" and touted it as "fully paid for," focusing on elements of the bill that would cut the federal deficit in its second 10-year period (Armstrong, CQ Today, 10/7).
Baucus said, "CBO further says it will further reduce the deficit in the second 10 years -- that is, bend the cost curve downward inside 10 years -- an objective that I've been pursuing and I dare to say the majority of the members of the committee have been pursuing" (Washington Times, 10/8).
He added, "Our balanced approach in the Finance Committee to health reform I think has paid off once again," and it "improves and expands health care coverage for tens of millions of American families" (Budoff Brown, Politico, 10/7).
New CBO Scores?
Wednesday's CBO scores might not be the final word on the cost of the Senate Finance Committee's reform legislation, Roll Call reports.
In a letter on Wednesday to Baucus that accompanied the new scores, CBO officials wrote that the bill "as amended, has not yet been converted into legislative language," adding, "The review of such language could lead to significant changes in the estimates of the proposal's effects on the federal budget and insurance coverage" (Drucker/Pierce, Roll Call, 10/8).
Hospital Group Balks at Score
Hospital industry officials on Wednesday expressed concern that the coverage estimates for the Senate Finance Committee's reform bill do not meet the numbers requested in the 10-year, $155 billion cost-savings deal that the industry had agreed upon with Baucus and the Obama administration over the summer, CongressDaily reports (Edney, CongressDaily, 10/8).
Chip Kahn, president of the Federation of American Hospitals, previously had said that the agreement hospitals made to accept $155 billion in payment reductions was contingent on reform legislation insuring 94% to 95% of U.S. residents (California Healthline, 10/6).
However, the Finance Committee bill would cover 91% of all U.S. residents, or 94% of residents if undocumented immigrants are excluded.
On Wednesday, Kahn said the bill "does not provide sufficient coverage," adding, "The deal depends on sufficient coverage. We hope the Senate and the committee can fix this by the time we get to the floor" (CongressDaily, 10/8).
Experts Question Surplus Numbers
While Baucus on Wednesday praised the bill's estimated $81 billion surplus, some experts noted that complex Senate rules could prohibit any attempts to use the surplus to increase spending in the measure or reduce proposed tax increases, CQ Today reports.
According to CQ Today, the surplus is considered "off-budget," which means that the money is derived from Social Security revenues and is "very difficult to touch."
Meanwhile, the CBO score included an "on-budget" 10-year surplus "so negligible that [CBO] marked it with an asterisk indicating that it could be $500 million -- or even a $500 million deficit" (Rubin, CQ Today, 10/7).
Grassley, Other GOP Leaders Criticize Bill
Following the release of the CBO report on Wednesday, Senate Finance Committee ranking member Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) issued a statement criticizing the bill for failing to do more than just remain deficit-neutral -- a key goal for Baucus and Obama, Roll Call reports. Grassley said that the bill "spends nearly $1 trillion and still leaves 25 million people without health insurance," adding, "That's not much bang for the buck."
According to Roll Call, the comments likely mean that Grassley will not support the legislation when it comes up for a final committee vote (Drucker, Roll Call, 10/7).
In a separate statement, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said, "This partisan Finance Committee proposal will never see the Senate floor, since the real bill will be written by Democrat leaders in a closed-to-the-public conference room somewhere in the Capitol," adding, "The real bill will be another 1,000-page, trillion-dollar experiment that slashes a half-trillion dollars from seniors' Medicare, raises taxes on American families by $400 billion, increases health care premiums and vastly expands the role of the federal government in the personal health care decisions of every American" (Politico, 10/7).
Senate Republican Policy Committee Chair John Thune (S.D.) criticized the upcoming private meetings that Reid is expected to convene to reconcile the two Senate bills. Thune said, "I think there's going to be a tremendous amount of backlash ... from people across the country," adding, "They view this as circumventing the process" (Drucker/Pierce, Roll Call, 10/8).
Finance Committee To Vote on Bill on Tuesday
The Senate Finance Committee is scheduled to vote on the legislation on Tuesday, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said during a floor speech on Thursday, The Hill reports (Bolton, The Hill, 10/8).
After the Finance Committee has voted on the bill, Reid will then authorize and oversee the process of merging the bill with the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee's bill (S 1679), which was passed over the summer.
Reid hopes to complete merging the bills by Oct. 17 and deliver the package to the floor a few days after that, according to Roll Call (Drucker/Pierce, Roll Call, 10/8).
In the meantime, Reid is expected to convene small private meetings in his Senate office next week with several key lawmakers and White House officials -- including Baucus and Sen. Christopher Dodd (D-Conn.), who shepherded the HELP Committee's bill markup -- to discuss the merger, the Post reports (Washington Post, 10/8).

The two RV Gypsies at Red Springs area
After visiting Red Rock Canyon (part of the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area), the Two RV Gypsies noticed a sign for Red Spring (shown below) and decided to go there.
a round house just before entering the Red Springs area
This project in the Red Springs area is a result of management alternatives developed to protect the habitat in this high use area. Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is a Bureau of Land Management area on the western edge of the Las Vegas Valley. This area, known as Red Spring, the Red Springs area, or Calico Basin, is sheltered and moist, making it attractive to a wide variety of birds and other wildlife.
The two RV Gypsies saw a Desert Cottontail but it ran so fast that Karen couldn't photograph it.
Karen was able to photograph a little chipmunk even though it also moves very quickly.
There is a boardwalk that circles the entire area - easy walking and allows visitors to enjoy the site and experience interpretive areas while sensitive riparian habitat is protected.
A wooden boardwalk within the fenced area at Red Springs educates the public to the sensitivity of Red Spring. Allowing the public access into the enclosure on a defined path will eliminate the desire to jump over the fence and trample sensitive areas. A wooden boardwalk can also enhance the interpretive experience.
Red Spring is part of Red Rock Canyon (Red Rock National Conservation area)
Hugging the base of towering dunes, the boardwalk gets visitors close enough to see the effect of what iron rich coatings on grains of sand and calcium carbonate from water has done to these dunes both bleaching the rock white, then accenting it with the deepest reds resulting in patterns of red spots, bumps and marbles (see below for explanation of spots, bumps and marbles).
As the two RV Gypsies start their walk on the boardwalk, they find themselves amazed by the beauty all around them.
Below: Signs explaining that ancient springs once flowed here, plus a photograph of the area where the spring once flowed.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF ROCKS: The two RV Gypsies are fascinated by the spots, bumps, and marbles on the rocks.
The rock below looks it has chicken pox. LOL
Swiss cheese anyone???
Hopefully, you have visited other pages on this website and have already learned about Petroglyphs and Pictographs. But in case you skipped those pages, here are signs explaining the difference between Petroglyphs and Pictographs.
Below: some important signs showing how this exact area looked from 600 million years ago through today. The sign on the left side below is demonstrating how areas in the photo below on the right looked in the past. Karen photographed each section of the sign separately so they are big enough to be read - so just scroll down and be amazed.
The two RV Gypsies are approaching the end of the boardwalk and their adventure at Red Spring.
A big rock that previously fell from the mountain and landed beside the boardwalk
A tree and some flowers (some with bees on them) that Karen enjoyed photographing
Now, back in their car, the two RV Gypsies stop for a few more photos of this scenic area.

Horror DVD Quotes Mean Nothing!Meh
Only a fool buys a dvd based on those glamorous quotes on the cover that say 'Best Movie Ever Made'. Those quotes are designed for one reason only to make you think 'holy crap its the holy grail of horror movies'. Studios carefully scour the web looking for great quotes to pull off sites and toss on their dvd covers to sell movies. Whether the quote was complete B.S. or based in fact at all.
Sometimes studios will even pull segments out of quotes. I know that Goon and I have had a few laughs when he sees a glowing quote on a DVD that he reviewed and its not entirely true. Example 'This movie is fantastic if you like tooth canals'.... can be edited to 'This Movie is Fantastic...'. See where we are going here folks?
DVD quotes are not always about the whole truth kids... its about selling dvds. So as much as the person quotted might love said movie that doesnt mean its the holy grail of horror movies. The key thing to keep in mind when your reading a horror quote on a dvd cover is it is 1 line. Its not a review. How on earth can you possibly gauge a movies contents and whether its worth watching off of one glamorous line saying 'Greatest Horror Movie Ever Made' - Some Dude with a Blog. Do you not need to see the whole review and its context to see if you share the same tastes with them? I would think so. I know I do
Now some might take my post as quite offensive especially if you have ever had your name on a dvd cover ( and I have ). So I am going to throw punches at this topic by choosing people from our own site who have been forever glamorized on a dvd cover.
The Goons quote on 'The Zombie Diaries' which he truly loved.
Tim Hannigans Quote on HOSTEL which is a film he found both revolting and awesome in the same breath.
Yours truly on the cover of Alien Apocalypse a Bruce Campbell movie that is all kind of b-movie bad and awesome all rolled into one!
First off its worth noting that Tim Hannigan and Goon have both known me since i started this site. They are personal friends of mine and we agree on alot of things and sometimes its not always movies. As much as I like Goon and Tim and respect their tastes in film I would never buy a movie just because they told me to. Nor should you, anymore then you should buy a movie because I said it was awesome. A dvd quote is one persons opinion and reflects one persons tastes which in some cases can be pretty limited. Case and point is Alien Apocalypse. Its a small niche film that I guarantee you 90% of the world would hate. If anyone bought that movie based on my quote I might owe you an apology if you dont share my limited b-movie love for Bruce and all things cheese.
If you want to blind buy a movie the first thing you should do is lookup the film in our tomb and see what a group of readers think. Are a group of readers better then Goon, myself or Tim? No.. they are not better per say. They are however a larger group and give you a much fairer comparison of what horror fans as a whole like. Tim Hannigan loved Hostel but did horror fans? When I buy a movie I look at other reviews first and foremost. In Tims case The Tomb ( which is based off your reviews ) gives HOSTEL a 76% rating meaning its a rent and possibly a buy. Namely 76% of you loved it.
Zombie Diaries in turn is also pretty well rated with a 63% rating in our tomb which means its a rent but not likely a buy. So in the case of Goon and Tim you all for the most part shared their views and liked the films. Heck if you lookup Alien Apocalypse you all seemed to agree with me as well giving that movie a 73% approval rating but lets take this to the next level.
Lets say you saw a quote from Goon on Uwe Bolls Dungeon Siege calling it the greatest movie ever made now. Would you buy it? I sure as hell hope not. What if I had a quote saying Alone in the Dark is the greatest masterpiece ever put on film? See my answer above. Use the internet kids. Whether you choose to look it up in our tomb, or simply google it.... use your noggin and do your research. Buying films based on dvd quotes is a great way to be dissapointed regardless of who made them. DVD quotes are nothing more then an attempt to get you to pick up and buy that movie. It reflects one persons opinion, no matter how esteemed it my be and should NEVER be the basis for your buy.

Inspired by GroverXIII of TNOTB's series of posts regarding nu-metal, Heavy Blog Is Heavy will be counting down the top five reasons why the genre of deathcore is totally full of shit. If you want to throw in your two cents and call me out on missing out a gem that this genre has to offer, mouth off in the comment section. Be sure to check out my Five Reasons Why Deathcore Isn't Total Shit for some better music. Enjoy!
So far…
#5. Oceano – Depths
#4. Emmure – Felony
#3. We Butter The Bread With Butter – Das Monster Aus Dem Schrank
#2. Wecamewithbrokenteeth – We're Packing, Are You?
There was no avoiding it. I knew all week that I would have to listen to this album for this countdown and was dreading it. You knew it was going to happen, as it's obvious that the self proclaimed "Kingpins of Death" in Waking The Cadaver would rear their ugly heads this week. When you're talking about shitty deathcore, it's hard to ignore the elephant in the room. Great minds think alike, I suppose.
I must start out by saying that I hate slam with every ounce in me. It has to be some of the dumbest music I've ever heard. Sure, sometimes it's technical, but that isn't everything. The vocals are shit, and to me, there's very limited quality to be found in this subgenre. But when it comes to scraping the bottom of the barrel in terms of musical quality, there's no doubt in my mind that Waking The Cadaver is the worst of the worst, especially on their album Perverse Recollections of a Necromangler. I've heard some of their newer stuff from their upcoming Beyond Cops. Beyond God. and they dropped much of their brutal slam sound in favor of a less shitty generic deathcore sound, but even still, the face of music will be forever tarnished by the shit stain in the undies of deathcore.

Sutherland Asbill & Brennan LLP started as an Atlanta tax
firm growing its presence to include offices in London, Geneva,
Washington, DC, New York, Houston, Austin and Sacramento. The
firm has embraced a wide array of practice areas, covering
corporate, energy and environmental, financial services, insurance,
intellectual property, litigation, real estate and tax law.
Tax Men and Soldiers
In 1924, William Sutherland, a former clerk to Supreme Court
Justice Louis Brandeis, launched a tax specialty firm in Atlanta
with fellow attorney Elbert Tuttle. Later, Tuttle helmed the firm's
pro bono counsel efforts in Johnston v. Zerbst, the
Supreme Court case that helped establish the right to counsel for
indigent criminal defendants. In his post-Sutherland days, Tuttle
also served as an appellate court judge and was awarded the
Presidential Medal of Freedom by Jimmy Carter.
Firm namesake Joseph Brennan, who joined the firm in 1928,
expanded its tax practice by navigating clients through New Deal
legislation. The firm branched out early in its history, opening a
Washington, DC office in 1937. (The DC office is right on
Pennsylvania Avenue, and the firm's attorneys have been known to
sleep over at the office to escape navigating inaugural day
messes.) With the outbreak of World War II, a portion of the firm's
staff left to fight overseas, several returning as decorated
soldiers. After the war, Sutherland branched into real estate,
insurance, education litigation and corporate law with the help of
Mac Asbill, who joined the firm in 1949.
In the next few decades, Sutherland Asbill & Brennan built
departments in financial services, technology and energy, notably
representing Northwest Pipeline Corporation in its bid to build the
Alaska Natural Gas Pipeline in the 1970s.
Sutherland Asbill & Brennan has continued its tax work,
taking on wealthy textile mogul John D. Hollingsworth as a client.
Former partner Margaret Richardson was tapped by President Bill
Clinton to head the IRS, and the firm serves as tax counsel for the
Altria Group, parent company to Phillip Morris. The firm also has
an active M&A department.
Looking into the Future
Sutherland attorneys represent a diverse range of clients,
including 61 Fortune 100 companies and 90 Fortune 200 companies.
The firm's Energy practice had an international growth spurt adding
offices in London and Geneva.

PHOTOS: Amazing pictures of waterspouts and other severe weather events!
PHOENIX -- A Phoenix woman who pretended to have cancer to raise money for breast implants has pleaded not guilty to fraud and theft charges.
A Maricopa County Superior Court spokesman says 27-year-old Jami Lynn Toler entered her plea Wednesday.
Toler told her former boss she needed a double mastectomy and breast reconstruction and was uninsured, according to court records. She also told the same story to her mother and grandparents.
Authorities say Toler helped organize fundraisers and collected more than $8,000 beginning in September.
Medical records obtained by Mesa police show she didn't have cancer and paid a plastic surgeon with the cash.
Toler's next court appearance is scheduled for July 9.

Stand up Salena Godden, Rachel Rayner, Claire Nicholson, Max Doray, Savo, Sean Dylan, Rich Lacey and the incomparable Kate Tempest. Stand up tall Book Club Boutique. We just got back from Electric Picnic, Ireland's Glastonbury and bugger me thrice, it was amazing. We had hospitable hosts, a rocking set and enough Jamesons to floor a herd of roughneck elephants. It's always amazing to see how musicians speak in notes and rhythms and as Sean and Savo had never played with the Book Club Boutique band, we were in for a treat.
After a train to a train to a ferry to a taxi mounting up the Euros, we were in the
Dublin suburbs, crowded into a busy hotel, crawling with hurling fans of the Kilkenny team and the biggest rockstars known to man. Headlining the lit area had its advantages. Stand up Brian Wilson, stand up Chris Cunningham, stand up bearded man crawling back to your tourbus… is it a Fleet Fox? Oh wait it's musical hero, Jeffrey Lewis. He was very amiable and sweet despite his hurry and even promised to listen to my CD, though I doubt it. Totally worth it.
Moments of the Festival:
The XX – sheer spine-tinglingly intense music, throbbing and pulsing with malevolence and anger and emotion. A spectacularly dark stage and some flashing lasers made for some aggressive and brooding music.
Meeting James Murphy from LCD Soundsystem. He was super-duper nice.
Convincing the following bands to take our Book Club Boutique newspaper and read it despite their initial reticence: Klaxons, Chew Lips, Fleet Foxes, The xx, The Wailers.
Watching the triumphant Flaming Lips show from the side of the stage, dancing with yetis, pumping my fists in jubilation to the 'Yeah Yeah Yeah Song' and swooning to 'Fight Test', watching a crowd of fans reduced to tears from Wayne Coyne's POV. Powerful stuff.
Meeting Passion Pit and them being nerdy pleasant and funny guys, hilariously deconstructing the many tattoos of David Cross, the bassist sounding like Jerry Seinfeld, the internal machinations of the music industry and which member of Vampire Weekend is the nicest. Then just as Passion Pit were leaving our hotel room, Amadou and Mariam's guitarist coming in and teaching me Malian scales, and various members of Ebony Bones.
The Wailers' hospitality and beer and coming to see our show, as well as the blonde Fleet Fox.
Berkavitch's hilarious money-making scheme involving collecting the plastic beer cups from the debris and claiming their 3 euros each, building up to 300 euros.
Kate Tempest's incredible freestyles.
The shuttlebus back to the hotel where the Whitest Boy Alive grabbed my guitar and decided to serenade us with cover versions of Paul Simon, Abba, and Prince. Afterwards he gave me a drunken cuddle that lasted a little too long. I told him it was getting cheesy and he asked me to top the cheesy emotional drunk hug. 'Thanks for the music man,' I replied and we fell on the floor laughing.
Fleet Foxes being surly to me about the newspaper and then being superflirty with Rachel Rayner when she offered it to them.
Our sets. Our sets. Our sets. They were magic, chaotic, tight, spontaneous, fun, and funny, we had a huge tent of people dancing to Salena's wailing stomping 'Make Light' by the end, screaming and pogoing and by the second night running over by an hour, completely intuitively pushing the audience higher and us higher and jumping harder and screaming and pushing through. It was a beautiful musical experience. I can never camp conventionally now I've experienced a hotel room option and thanks Ireland for the hospitality and the Jamesons and Book Club Boutique for an awesome weekend…

|Irvin McDowell studied and taught tactics at West Point and wasn't afraid to attack. I don't think it was really his fault that he lost Bull Run, but his improperly trained men. Once his army had training and experience, he maybe could have used or even mastered flanking attacks similar to Jackson or Sherman. Sure Grant would have probably been a better leader, but maybe McDowell could have gotten the war to a better start if he had been in command of the Army of the Potomac.

My SiL is graduating high school in May and would like a dress like this Pinterest pin. She is petite and pretty curvy, I'd call her a cross between a rectangle and hourglass shapes. Any ideas? I'm looking for something fairly easy to fit and that has a similar collar detail. I'm totally willing to merge patterns if needed! TIA -- Edited on 4/7/14 0:01 AM --
The collar looks like a pre-fab one. Sold loose as a set. Just single layer fabric, cotton embroidered. Those are sold all ready made up even, in sets, of two pieces, mirroring each other. I don't know where to get those now, but they used to be in all the major big box fabric stores even, mounted on cardboard on the hang tag walls, but that was more in the 1980's when they were real popular back then and maybe not so much now.
But if you can find the pre-fab collar pieces, then you could use almost any sewing pattern, with a plain boat or scoop neck you liked as the single layer prefab collar just gets inserted into there, but finding the collar pieces would even be the first thing probably. Unless you really wanted to make them from scratch instead.

Sandra Bullock just can't help it.
The Oscar winner, who is once again a Best Actress nominee this year for her if-you-don't-buy-her-you-don't-buy-the-movie role in Gravity, couldn't help but look flawless while on a Starbucks run this week, despite the fact that she was wearing workout clothes and seemingly not a lick of makeup.
That's just how a lot of stars roll even when they're not on the red carpet—impressively.
If you prefer your celebs dressed to the nines, dripping with diamonds, zipped into gowns or buttoned up in tuxedos, we'll be seeing Bullock and a host of other hotties and/or distinguished thesps all gussied up for prime time this Sunday at the 86th Academy Awards.
But you know what's more fun than seeing exotic animals at the zoo?
Seeing them out in the wild, of course!
While the Oscar nominees in all categories are going to clean up nicely for the big show (well, they better, or Twitter's gonna get 'em), there's a reason why most need a visit from the glam squad beforehand.
New fashion darling Lupita Nyong'o hasn't slowed down from her breakout awards season long enough to put on a pair of jeans (if she even owns any) and walk around, but pretty much everyone else seems to prefer to keep it casual when just going about their daily business. (And it's sometimes hard to log the British stars' street style—a Best Supporting Actress nomination for Blue Jasmine's Sally Hawkins hasn't made her a paparazzi target yet.)
Check out Jennifer Lawrence, Matthew McConaughey, Jared Leto, Bradley Cooper, Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts and more in a dressed-down—and yet somehow still dazzling—state.

The Magazine
The Age of Conflict
Politics and culture after September 11.
Nov 5, 2001, Vol. 7, No. 08 • By DAVID BROOKS
"A SINGULAR FACT OF MODERN WAR," the historian Bruce Catton once wrote, "is that it takes charge. Once begun it has to be carried to its conclusion, and carrying it there sets in motion events that may be beyond men's control. Doing what has to be done to win, men perform acts that alter the very soil in which society's roots are nourished." Catton was writing about the Civil War, but his observation applies to most wars, and it will likely apply to the war to which we are now committed. If this conflict lasts as long as it is likely to last--as long as the president has warned us it will--it will reshape our culture and our politics. It will constitute a hinge moment in American history.
We had probably entered a time of transition even before the September 11 attack. The collapse of the dot-com economy already meant that Silicon Valley and the wonders of high technology were not going to hold the nation's attention during the next ten years the way they did during the last ten. The economic slowdown had already brought one boom to an end; the next economic recovery was bound to have different growth sectors, a different personality. George W. Bush's Washington was bound to be different from Bill Clinton's.
But September 11 brought the 1990s to a close all at once. And the ensuing war will mean that the next few years will not only feel different from the last few; they will feel dramatically different. Subjects that used to seem riveting will seem stale. Can anybody imagine why we cared about Inside.com? Can anybody remember what was so buzz-worthy about Tina Brown? Can anybody relive the excitement that greeted the release of Windows 95? Can anybody get interested in think tank reports on Social Security lockboxes or charitable choice? Are there liberals still intrigued by the disease of "affluenza" or the menace of corporate branding? For that matter, can anyone read Maureen Dowd without wincing? She was the quintessential columnist of the 1990s, brilliantly treating politics as a sitcom. But she has been struggling to adapt to an era in which politics really matters.
"What changes after a hinge is our stories of ourselves," Joel Garreau wrote recently in the Washington Post, "Who we are, how we got that way, where we're headed and what makes us tick." Garreau interviewed psychologists who study "figure/ground" reversal. That's what you get when you stare at one of those drawings of two heads facing each other in profile; first you see a black face staring left, then suddenly your perception changes and you see a white face staring right. "What had been central suddenly has become peripheral. What had been ignorable has suddenly become central," Garreau writes.
Obviously nobody knows what the future years will feel like, but we do know that the next decade will have a central feature that was lacking in the last one: The next few years will be defined by conflict. And it's possible to speculate about what that means. The institutions that fight for us and defend us against disorder--the military, the FBI, the CIA--will seem more important and more admirable. The fundamental arguments won't be over economic or social issues, they will be over how to wield power--whether to use American power aggressively or circumspectly. We will care a lot more about ends--winning the war--than we will about means. We will debate whether it is necessary to torture prisoners who have information about future biological attacks. We will destroy innocent villages by accident, shrug our shoulders, and continue fighting. In an age of conflict, bourgeois virtues like compassion, tolerance, and industriousness are valued less than the classical virtues of courage, steadfastness, and a ruthless desire for victory.
LOOKING BACK, the striking thing about the 1990s zeitgeist was the presumption of harmony. The era was shaped by the idea that there were no fundamental conflicts anymore. The Cold War was over, and while the ensuing wars--like those in Bosnia and Rwanda --were nettlesome, they were restricted to global backwaters. Meanwhile, technology was building bridges across cultures. The Internet, Microsoft ads reminded us, fostered communication and global harmony. All around the world there were people casting off old systems so they could embrace a future of peace and prosperity. Chinese Communists were supposedly being domesticated by the balm of capitalist success. Peace seemed in the offing in Northern Ireland and, thanks to the Oslo process, in the Middle East.

Enroll Now!
A new session of each course starts monthly. If enrolling in a series of two or
more courses, please be sure to space the start date for each course at least two
months apart.
Each year, nonprofit organizations receive billions of dollars from grant-making entities. How can your organization ensure that some of this money comes into your coffers? The goal of Get Grants! is just that, and this lesson will you get started. The first step in getting grants is making sure that you have a fundable project. What's that? You'll find out in this lesson. We'll also talk about how to take an idea and develop it into a proposal.
Today you'll learn the eight parts of a typical grant proposal, and you'll find out in what order you should develop them. We'll examine how to create a workable timeline so that you never frantically work on a proposal only to discover that you missed the deadline. We'll also go into detail about the first part of the proposal—the introduction, or what we might call your section on bragging rights.
Today we'll get to the heart of the proposal: the "why." The need statement is where you convince potential funders that you need their support. But ah, there's a hitch. Funders don't particularly care about things you lack or things that would make you happy. They care about funding projects that address issues or resolve unmet needs that mesh with their priorities. After this lesson, you'll know how to detect a real need and then write a concise, clear, well-documented need statement that makes funding agencies take note.
Goals and objectives clarify precisely what you intend to accomplish and help funders see what they are supporting. In this lesson you'll learn how to write goals that flow from the need statement and objectives that will help to measure your success. More specifically, we'll show you how to craft the specific, measurable objectives that grant makers require.
"Evaluation" is a word that you hear a lot in the grant-writing world. It's how you show the grant makers that the outcomes of your project are what they want to support. By the end of today's lesson, you'll be able to design evaluations that clearly demonstrate how your outcomes support your goals and the goals of the funding source.
Today we'll talk about methods and activities, which are the things you'll be doing from the moment you receive your funding in order to reach your goal. Planning these steps can be daunting, but you'll see how to create a detailed road map so that you never get lost. You'll also understand how to match your activities to the objectives we developed in Lesson 4. And you'll know how to capture all the great ideas that you generate during the grant-writing process, so your project manager will be able to start implementing them right away.
If you're a numbers person, this lesson about the budget will be right up your alley. If you're not, this lesson will demystify the budget process. We'll go through each of the budget categories and define the more confusing terms. Best of all, you'll get good models for your budget form and your budget narrative. These will be very helpful . . . especially when you work on a major grant.
Grant writers frequently overlook these two parts of the proposal. But after today, you'll never make this common mistake. Funders don't always require information about dissemination (publicizing your program) and sustainability (future funding), but both are vital pieces in convincing funders that you will make the most of their investment. You'll find out today how you can best present them in your proposal.
Although we're not yet finished with the class, we're at the point of the proposal process where we sum it all up. In this lesson, we'll look at how to give the summary its due. We'll also talk about letters of inquiry: what they are, when to use them, and how to make them effective. And we'll examine how to make successful first approaches to funding sources.
You've written a great grant . . . now you need to send it out and get it funded. Today we'll talk about researching funding sources. By the end of this lesson, you'll know who funds government programs and where to get the best information. You'll also know where to find out about private foundations and corporate funding. Finally, you'll come to understand the sometimes arcane language of guidelines and extract the details you need.
What image do you want to present to your funding sources? The tips you'll get today (including ways to assemble and package your grant) will help you present your proposal in the best light. We'll review what supporting data you'll need and talk about what you have to do after you've submitted your grant.
In this lesson, we'll cover writing style . . . what works and what doesn't. We'll discuss how to ensure that your organization is ready to apply for a grant. And we'll talk about grant writing as a career—including what it means to work on retainer and why you should never work on a contingency basis. By the end of this lesson (which is the end of this course), you'll be well-equipped to get out there and get grants!

A woman is safe and a man is arrested after a break-in on Lakewood Drive in Lexington.
It happened around 9:30 Wednesday morning when the woman heard someone in her house. Lexington police say that John C. Patton, 36, had broken a back window in the home to get inside.
Police tell us the woman did the right thing by calling them while hiding under the bed and waiting until they arrived.
"Luckily, she took the proper steps to protect herself, called us immediately. She didn't try to confront the suspect and responding officers were able to get here quickly," says Lt. Raymond Roller, with Lexington Police.
Police set up a perimeter in the neighborhood where they caught up with their suspect, Patton shortly after he left the home. They found him on Indian Mound Road.
They say they found stolen property on him. He was arrested and is now charged with burglary and fleeing and evading. Luckily, the woman inside the home was unharmed. A man across the street watched the police scene unfold.
"We were out here raking and we saw a bunch of cop cars start to roll up one after the other. I didn't think anything of it. One rolled up with his lights on and they started sneaking around the house. Next thing you know they bust out a window, two take off running. It was like a movie," said Tyler Burke, a witness.
The woman was unharmed in the home invasion.
Stolen property was found on Patton. Police say their suspect did have outstanding warrants for violating his probation.
Some residents say there have been a few burglaries in the neighborhood recently. We asked police if Patton could be connected to any of them, but police say it is too early in the investigation to know.
Court documents show that Patton is also accused of some other burglaries in Lexington. In a 2009 incident, he is even accused of running from police before getting charged with receiving stolen property. In another case, Patton is accused of stealing $88,000 from a Lexington business.

EUGENE, Ore. -- In spite of numerous challenges, the Festival of Eugene is officially on for a weekend of entertainment at Skinner Butte Park.
"It's been a fantastic rollercoaster, with highs and lows and we hope to bring all those highs to all those people that come here," said Anand Holtham-Keathley, a community liaison for the festival.
The event was scheduled for 4 to 10 p.m. Friday and 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday.
Organizers said the Festival of Eugene, which was initially formed after the annual Eugene Celebration was canceled, said they've had their share of donation and location woes, as well as some other hiccups along the way.
"We'd come out and outline with chalk paint all the booths numbers and somebody in the middle of the night came in and erased the booths numbers so what could've chaos everybody has been good rolling with the punches, that's what this festival is about, rolling with the punches," said event producer Krysta Albert.
Skinner Butte Park will be filled with over 50 vendors, non-profit groups, health and wellness booths, live music, art and food. | List of attractions
Albert said the free show is an embodiment of the city's spirit.
"They can expect pretty much a Friday and Saturday with lots of really good music, really great vendors, lots of great activities. I would say it's a visual arts kind of weekend," said Albert.

At a meeting Wednesday, council approved an ordinance authorizing a three-payment plan. Taxpayers will have to make payments by April 1, May 30 and June 30, under the ordinance, which was recommended by Tax Collector Ramona Mentzer.
In a letter to council, Mentzer said a similar installment plan was enacted last year by the Ringgold School District. She said the school district received $20,000 extra in real estate taxes, crediting the installment plan for the boost in revenue.
In other news, council honored a little boy with a big heart.
Connor Vaccari will celebrate his seventh birthday Feb. 22 by donating his gifts to the city's Community Disaster Fund.
Donna Vaccari, his mother, said each year the family gets together at the start of the year to discuss plans for their birthdays, all of which are in January or February.
"I asked him like I always do," Vaccari said. "At first, he didn't say anything. Then the next morning, he said, 'I want to have a party, but I want to donate all of my gifts.'
"He wants to donate all of the toys he gets, so everybody can have something to play with."
Vaccari was concerned that Connor would have second thoughts after seeing the gifts and possibly want to keep some for himself. But he has maintained his philanthropic stance.
Vaccari established a Facebook page about her son's generosity. It has spawned donations from a number of states and even one from France.
More than 100 toys and $500 has been donated so far, she said.
"I think its totally awesome," said Aaron Vaccari, Connor's father. "Its great for the community, and I'm proud of him. He has a tremendous heart.
"How many 7-year-olds do you know who would give up their gifts?"
Mayor Bob Kepics commended Connor for his generosity.
The Ringgold Elementary School South first-grader shook hands with each council member, the mayor and other city officials.
The items will be collected through his birthday, and the list, so far, comprises toys, blankets, pajamas and cash.
The cash will be used to purchase gift cards to benefit the relief fund for disaster victims.
Councilman Bill Hess Sr., a firefighter and city emergency management director, offered to take Connor on a fire truck ride.
"I wish other children your age would take the reins and do things like this," Hess said.
