Islanders' Tavares humbled by Hart nomination
Penguins/NHL Videos
When New York Islanders center John Tavares boarded the team's airplane after a Game 5 loss to the Penguins, he received this message from assistant coach Doug Weight: "Come see me."
"I figured it had to do with the game," Tavares said.
The news was much better. Weight wanted to be the first to congratulate Tavares for his nomination for the Hart Trophy, awarded to the NHL's most valuable player.
He joins the Penguins' Sidney Crosby and Alex Ovechkin of the Capitals as nominees. The winner will be named in late June.
"I was a little shocked," Tavares said. "A lot of emotion. Just because of the game, disappointed. But, you know, it's a great honor, tremendous honor to be recognized, especially with those two guys and what great players they are."
"It's nice, and I'm sure I'll have time to celebrate later," Ovechkin told reporters in Washington. "But now it's all about business."
Tavares, the No. 1 overall draft choice in 2009, finished third in the regular season with 28 goals, behind Ovechkin (32) and Tampa Bay's Steven Stamkos (29).
Islanders coach Jack Capuano said Tavares is the chief reason the Islanders reached the playoffs and remain alive for Game 6 Saturday at Nassau Coliseum.
"Let's face it. If John Tavares didn't have the season that he had, we're probably not in the situation that we're in," Capuano said. "When we need a big goal, he's been there for us."
Tavares didn't tell many people of the honor.
"Just people close to me," he said. "When I was told, I let my parents know. (They) are a big part of this since I first put on the skates when I was 3 years old."
Tavares was more concerned about the timing of the announcement.
"I'm trying to stay in the moment and stay as focused as I can with the big game this weekend," he said.

Questions arise on how quickly Afghan security forces can take leadership role
BRUSSELS, Belgium
U.S. and NATO officials struggled Thursday to clarify how long their troops would remain engaged in combat in Afghanistan amid disagreements over when and how Afghan security forces would assume that role.
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said there was a consensus among NATO leaders that the fledgling Afghan army "will be ready to take the combat lead in all of Afghanistan" next year, with U.S. and NATO forces shifting to an advisory and training mission. British and French officials said they backed that idea, but other NATO officials were less definitive.
At a news conference at the alliance's headquarters in Brussels, NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said that "we don't know yet" when newly trained but inexperienced Afghan forces, who now number more than 300,000, will take charge of the combat mission in the war. He predicted NATO would resolve the issue at its May summit in Chicago.
Rasmussen said that NATO forces would remain actively engaged in combat until the end of 2014, when most allied troops are scheduled to withdraw from Afghanistan. "Let me stress," he said, "we will conduct combat operations throughout that period."
On Wednesday, while en route to Brussels, Panetta surprised some allies by saying that the Obama administration wanted to shift from "a combat role to a training, advise and assist role … hopefully by mid- to the latter part of 2013."
That timeline would represent an acceleration in NATO's plans.
On Wednesday, Panetta acknowledged that U.S. troops could still be involved in combat after 2013 but indicated that they would fight only to protect themselves.
On Thursday, however, he modified that characterization, saying U.S. forces would still regularly engage in combat but in a "support role."
"It's basically, the Afghans themselves will be in charge of combat operations," he told reporters. "Again, we'll be there for support; we'll be there for guidance. But they're the ones that are going to be in the lead and conduct the operations."
It was unclear what those changes would mean on the battlefield.
Asked to elaborate on the difference between a "lead" combat role and a "supporting" role, a senior U.S. defense official said that American troops would perhaps remain embedded with Afghan forces. But the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the questions of who would issue orders and how tactical duties would be divided had not been resolved.
Another senior NATO official, also speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations, said no decision had been reached about when the Afghans would take over combat duties.

Presented by University of Leicester, Department of Health Sciences, University of Leicester, Department of Genetics and University of Leicester, GENIE
Lung health varies between people. Someone with persistent difficulty exhaling might have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a condition which leaves them, quite literally, breathless.
A person's chances of developing COPD as they grow older is
affected by whether they smoke cigarettes, but genetic variation
also plays a role. Understanding the genetic variation that
predicts lung disease gives scientists clues about the causes of
lung disease and about how to treat it.
The DNA in our cells is made up of three billion pairs of just
four types of chemical bases: known as A, C, G and T. Genetic
variation means that, where one person might have an A at a certain
place in the sequence, another person might have a G.
To identify the genetic variations that affect lung health the
scientists behind this exhibit compared millions of differences in
the DNA of almost 50,000 people and checked how healthy their lungs
At this exhibit, visitors can see how lung health is measured
and learn about genetic variation between people. You can also try
to detect the genetic variations which predict lung health.
Everybody knows that cigarette smoking is bad for us, but are some
smokers at even higher risk than others?
Explore the
virtual exhibit for more videos, activities and explanations
about lung health.

Vampire Wall Art
* Custom Size Vampire Wall Decor
* Vampire Canvas Wraps & Tapestries, Posters & Gallery Wraps
Boys and girls both get a thrill out of vampires, and its an excitement that lasts for life. That's why our vampire wall art is the perfect gift for kids, teens and adults, showing the danger, seductiveness and mythology of these immortal bloodsuckers. Vampires have been a popular source of legends and stories for centuries, but never more so than now, so begin your vampire themed wall decor immediately.
For a classic vampire, choose our photographically designed
art boards that picture a pale skinned, dark haired man with a heavy black coat pulled up around his shoulders. This vampire is baring his glistening white fangs as gray clouds toss through the dark night sky overhead. A more modern and trendy vampire is showcased on posters that teen girls adore. Here a hunky vampire with shaggy blonde hair is shirtless, tanned and dressed in jeans. He's carrying a fainted girl in an innocent white nightgown towards you out of the vampire wall art pattern.
These days, vampires aren't just guys. Girls are getting in on the bloodsucking action too, and they look good while doing it on our canvas wall art. Select a wall hanging that pictures the face and hands of a gorgeous brunette vampiress as she clings to the back of a muscular man and prepares to chomp into his neck. Another lady vampire is featured on posters that show a fashionable vampiress relaxing in a gray dungeon while wearing a feathery black dress.
Many of our vampire wall art designs even display the sight of blood dripping from the lips of a vampire. One of these art boards has a beautiful blonde haired vampiress wearing a black hood, parting her lips, and letting red blood drip down her chin.

›› Photos: El Paso fencing school
Wearing a mask covering his face and dressed in padded clothing, Gino de la Reza dances back and forth gracefully while holding a flexible foil in one hand. The 18-year-old Franklin High School senior is practicing fencing -- the sport of swordplay -- with his teammates from the Salle De Long Fencing School at the YWCA's Joyce Whitfield Jaynes Branch near Downtown El Paso.
"I was watching the Summer Olympics several years ago, and it looked like a lot of fun, so I decided to try it," said de la Reza, who is a C-rated fencer. "When I started, I just wanted to come out here and do the best that I could."
He found out quickly that fencing also helped him stay more focused in school.
"Fencing has taught me to have a strong work ethic," he said. "It's helped me in my relationships with others by teaching me how to treat people the way I would like to be treated which is with respect and kindness. Fencing has taught me so many life lessons."
Fencers are rated "A" through "E" with "A" being the best. There is also a U-rating, meaning that person is not rated.
Margaret Readi De Long founded the Salle De Long Fencing School in 2002.
"At that time I was working at Del Sol and we offered a summer camp for kids who wanted to get in shape," De Long said. "My oldest son Bryan decided to be part of the camp. We were looking for different physical activities for the kids and when I said I could coach fencing, he wanted to do it right away."
Shortly afterward, the Salle De Long Fencing School became a functioning club. The club has been part of Border Texas Division and an active United States Fencing Association member club that competes at Southwest Section events as well as North American Cups, Junior Olympics and Summer National Championships.
Bryan Long, who is now 24 years old, eventually joined the fencing team at West Point.
"I have about 25 to 35 students from 6 to 65 years old," De Long said. "There are people who do it for fitness and wellness. People can lose a lot of weight (through) fencing because you are constantly moving and changing direction. One of my adult students lost about 13 pounds in a matter of three months."
De Long, who is originally from Santiago, Chile, was a member of the Chilean National Women's Foil Team that participated in the South American and Pan American Games.
She also served as the fencing instructor at the University of Chile and at New Mexico State. She just opened a program on Fort Bliss and will teach a class at the University of Texas at El Paso this semester.
De Long said she is happy with the way the school has progressed.
"Some of our students participate in national tournaments and have brought home several medals," she said. "The level of expertise goes up at that national level. Some of our students are even getting scholarships to some of the top schools in the country like Notre Dame, Ohio State University and New York State University."
The club travels to Houston, Dallas, San Antonio and Austin to compete.
"Those cities have huge fencing clubs," she said. "But we place really well, especially in the youth category between 7 and 14 years old."
Her youngest son, 16-year-old Quinton Long, is an E-rated fencer.
the yo
Fencing has been around for thousands of years. It began as a way of training soldiers to fight with swords and eventually became a competitive team sport that anyone can participate in.
Fencers face off on a 6-foot by 40-foot strip with one of three kinds of swords -- foil, epee and saber -- and duel for points.
"Being on that strip alone can be a little nerve-wracking but exciting at the same time," Quinton Long said. "No matter how the bout turns out, win or lose, I enjoy what I do, I love this sport."
Like Long, 15-year-old Daniel de la Reza started fencing because of his older brother.
"I would watch Gino fence and I thought it was cool," said Daniel, who is unranked. "It just looked like a lot of fun. I remember one of the first times I came to watch a practice and there where these two older guys pretending they were fighting like characters on 'Star Wars.' It's really a fun sport."
Darci Escandon, whose 14-year-old daughter, Sloane, is in her first year with the club, said fencing requires strength, speed, balance and a very sharp mind.
"My daughter loves doing things that cause her to think," she said. "She likes sports where you have to think and strategize like the game of Risk (board game). Imagine adding physical activity to the game of Risk, and that's what you have with fencing. You always have to be one step ahead of your opponent. You have to be able to tell what your opponent is going to do next."

The National Shipbuilding Procurement Strategy Secretariat has received two requests from eligible bidders to extend the bid period to September 12, 2011, for the Request for Proposals (RFP) to build large vessels for Canada.
Requests for bid extensions are not unusual or extraordinary, particularly for complex requirements, and each case is examined on its own merits.
The National Shipbuilding Procurement Strategy Deputy Ministers' Governance Committee will make the final decision regarding whether an extension will be granted. Given the current stage of the procurement process, the decision will be made as expeditiously as possible.
Canada will not respond to enquiries regarding the bid extension request until the decision is announced.
Until further notice, the RFP bid closing date remains July 7, 2011.

Touch Screens for Many Fingers
Researchers have bigger plans for multi-touch screens than the novel interface on Apple's iPhone.
When Steve Jobs demonstrated Apple's new phone at Macworld recently, the feature that elicited the most "oohs" and "aahs" from the audience was the touch-screen interface: it allowed more than one touch at a time. This "multi-touch" technology adds functions such as allowing a person to easily zoom in and out of pictures and Web pages by pinching the screen with two fingers.
But the full power of multi-touch technology might be unleashed in screens far larger than those on phones. Over the past few years, Jeff Han, consulting research scientist at New York University, has developed an inexpensive way to make large multi-touch screens accommodating 10, 20, or even more fingers. He envisions applications ranging from interactive whiteboards to touch-screen tables and digital walls–any of which could be manipulated by more than just one person. And this month, Han has unveiled Perceptive Pixel, his new company based on the technology.
"The new iPhone is too small to be a very interesting multi-touch device," says Han, who demonstrates his technology on this YouTube video. That's because multi-touch technology implies multiple users. More than one person gathered around a large touch screen "becomes interesting," he says, "because multiple users can then become collaborators." Such collaboration could take many forms, from brainstorming sessions using networked, interactive whiteboards to animation collaborations at which six hands can mould the face of a monster. Perceptive Pixel is set to ship its first wall-size touch screen this month, to an undisclosed U.S. military customer.
Various approaches to multi-touch technology have been demonstrated at engineering conferences since the 1980s. Mitsubishi Electric Research Labs developed the DiamondTouch table, which allows a group of people to sit around and collaborate on projects. Multi-touch screens "never completely went away, but they're coming back in different ways, and for certain things they're going to be really important," says Bill Buxton, principal researcher at Microsoft Research.
There are many ways to make a multi-touch screen, Han explains. Some of the early designs measured the change in electrical resistance or capacitance on a surface when fingers touched it. But these devices have limited resolution, are relatively complex, and don't easily and inexpensively scale up to large dimensions. Apple has not disclosed what multi-touch technology it's using on the iPhone.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. -- In less than six weeks after President Bush declared areas of Indiana eligible for federal disaster assistance, more than $15.5 million in grants and low-interest loans has been approved for disaster victims, say officials from the Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Indiana Department of Homeland Security (IDHS).
The deadline to apply is Tuesday, Dec. 5. For individuals who have already applied, their cases will continue to be processed, but no new telephone or online applications will be accepted after the deadline.
The following is a summary of disaster recovery activities, as of close of business Nov. 15.
A total of 5,380 Indiana residents have applied for federal disaster assistance in the three disaster designated counties - 4,498 in Lake, 851 in Vanderburgh and 31 in Warrick counties.
A total of $9,056,440 in Housing Assistance grants has been approved -- including $7,594,039 (2,694 approved claims) in Lake, $1,418,334 (524) in Vanderburgh, and $44,066 (23) in Warrick. Disaster housing assistance comes in the form of grants for temporary housing needs and for homeowners to make essential repairs.
A total of $768,387 in Other Needs Assistance (ONA) grants has been approved - including $690,451 (850 approved claims) in Lake , $76,234 (109) in Vanderburgh, and $1,700 (2) in Warrick Counties. ONA provides for uninsured or under-insured disaster-related necessary expenses and serious needs, which may include grants for medical, dental, personal property, transportation and other expenses that FEMA approves.
The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) has approved 241 low-interest disaster loans, totaling $5,747,200 (239 home and 2 businesses) - including $4,604,500 (189 approved for home loans) and $111,700 (2 approved for business loans) in Lake and $1,031,000 (50 for home) in Vanderburgh Counties. No disaster loans have been approved as yet in Warrick County .
The SBA has issued 3,770 applications to homeowners and renters and 357 to businesses, but only approximately 15 per cent of those applications have been completed and returned.
FEMA's temporary housing assistance and grants for public transportation expenses, medical and dental expenses, and funeral and burial expenses do not require individuals to apply for an SBA loan. However, applicants who receive SBA loan applications must complete and return them to SBA to be eligible for assistance that covers personal property, vehicle repair or replacement, and moving and storage expenses.
- Disaster Recovery Centers in the affected areas have served nearly 1,700 residents, providing information about disaster assistance, Internal Revenue Service (tax) issues, mental health counseling, ways to reduce damages from future storms, and assistance completing SBA disaster loan applications.
The first step in applying for disaster assistance is to contact FEMA by logging on to www.fema.gov or calling 1-800-621-FEMA (3362) or TTY 1-800-462-7585 for those with a speech or hearing impairment. Both lines are available 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily and multilingual operators are available to assist applicants. After applying, to ask questions about the status of an application or receive additional assistance, disaster victims should call the FEMA Helpline at the same toll-free numbers.

So How Is the Book Coming?
I hear the question all the time, and actually I'm really grateful to know that others are carrying this process on their heart and are anxious to read it. For those that don't know, I'm working on a new book called Finding Church: What if There Really Is Something More? I want it to help people find the realitly of Jesus' church in the world, especially for those who have grown disillusioned with the traditional forms of it that have failed to live up to Paul's incredible language about the life and power of Jesus' church in the earth. My thesis is that the church is a reality inside the new creation Jesus launched on the earth, and as long as we try to build it with old creation realities, we will only end up with the church humanity builds, not the one Jesus is building. Having spent the last twenty years tasting of the church Jesus is building all over the world, it is far more wondrous than anything humanity can replicate even with his best efforts and schemes.
To be honest, it has taken a bit longer to write than I had hoped. Some of that has to do with situations around my life that is curtailing writing time, and some of that has to do with trying to find the way to say what I want to say so that it is clear, conscise, and compelling. I've also invited others into this process and their insights, while incredibly helpful, also sent me back to the drawing board at times.
So how is it going? I've got good news and bad news there. The good news is that I pretty much finished it last week. The bad news is that I blew it up this week, on some wonderful advice I got from a former editor of mine. Hopefully that will be good news in the long run, because it will make it a better book with a better flow. So for those of you who listened to the first chapter and/or the second chapter on The God Journey, they are no longer the first and second chapter. That material will still be there, just arranged quite differently, and not all the content will be in the same chapter. So, it's a bit of a mess right now, but all the pieces are there waiting to find their place. Maybe that's a metaphor for the church itself.
So my best guess now is to try and finish it in the next couple of months and have it available after a couple of months of production. Early summer may be a best-case, and late summer more likely. I'm sorry for the delay, but I'm really excited at how it is taking shape—again!

Putting together a Presidential Library is a really, really big job
In 1939, President Roosevelt donated his personal and Presidential papers to the Federal Government, marking the beginning of the modern Presidential Library system that is part of the National Archives. Seventy-four years later, the newest Presidential Library holds more documents than FDR could have imagined.
The George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum holds more than 70 million pages of textual records, 43,000 artifacts, 200 million emails (totaling roughly 1 billion pages), and 4 million digital photographs (the largest holding of electronic records of any of our libraries).
Collecting this material, cataloging and processing it, and making it available to the public was a task that began on January 20, 2009.
As a Presidential administration nears its end, the National Archives works with the White House and the Department of Defense (DOD) to begin organizing, boxing, and moving a huge amount of Presidential materials out of various locations in Washington, DC. All records and artifacts must be out of the White House by noon on Inauguration Day.
At the same time, the National Archives locates temporary storage in the area of the future Presidential library—in this case, Lewisville, Texas. Then the National Archives and the Department of Defense begin moving the records to the temporary library … [ Read all ]

Audit: College failed to give waivers
BATON ROUGE - A state audit finds Acadiana Technical College failed to issue hardship waivers to students who cannot afford certain fees even though the waivers are required by law.
The report released Monday says the failure may have resulted in additional costs to some students.
Additionally, the report notes that the school was late in reimbursing $4,092 to the federal government and paying $514 to students related to Federal Pell grants intended to help bridge the cost of higher education for lower-income and some middle-class families.
According to the report, the school has had problems with the Pell program spanning five different audits.
In a written response to the audit, Chancellor Natalie Harder concurred with the findings and stated that the school has updated its policies to correct the problems found.

I awoke the next morning to the whistle of a wren across the river. I jumped down from my perch and landed on my hands and knees. Last night was a chilly one. The temperature dropped considerably after the moon rose to the zenith. It was very clear and I was able to stargaze before I fell into a deep sleep. Now that I'm awake, I see that the clouds have come back and so has the heat. It was an overcast day with some rain every now and then.
I walked back to the Muskie and ripped off the canvas overhead to turn into a canopy. I tied some rope to the corners and hung it above my perch. I know it would have been useful over the fire, but my warmth and dryness anytime was essential. I moved my tackle box and firewood under the canopy and waited for the next break in the rain to attempt to start another fire.
I didn't get that break, however. The day was over and it was dark before I got a chance. I knew that I needed the fire though. In a few hours, my squirrel would either be moldy, or infested with bugs. It would likely be both. I left my tree and went back to the bow of the Muskie to get more cotton from the chair. I began to rebuild a fire with the fairly moist kindling. It took longer than last time, but the sense of accomplishment felt good. I lashed two sticks together on an angle and repeated the process t create a spit for my squirrel. I took a wet stick and jabbed it down the squirrel's mouth and shoved carefully until it came out the other end. I moved the squirrel to the middle of the stick and began to rotate it over the fire. When the fire burned the fur off, I took off one of its legs to find if the meat was cooked. When I verified that it was, I took a bite of the juicy leg. It was very gamey with an almost spicy flavor. It wasn't long before I moved on to the next leg, then into the body. The squirrel was gone just as my stomach was satisfied.
I was almost asleep when I felt the most unbearable pain on my arm I looked down at where I felt the pain. On my arm was a deep gash about an inch long. To make matters worse, it was still growing longer, but there was no knife cutting it. I looked up and stared into a face. The face was that which belonged to death. It was just a skull floating around with black ribbons trailing behind it. I recoiled and jumped out of the tree. The lantern clattered to the ground but I didn't care. I ran as fast as I could away from camp. It was difficult to see and I was getting whipped with sticks, but I kept going anyway. The thing made a wail and disappeared from behind me. I slowed down, panting heavily with my hands on my knees. I decided to slowly and carefully walk back. When I got back to camp, I grabbed the lantern and climbed back into the tree. Once I was at the top, I made a small cut in the canvas about six by one inches and wrapped it around my arm. It stung like hell, but it was essential for my survival. This time, before I fell asleep, I made sure that I was alone.

|Congenital malformations: agreement between diagnostic codes in an administrative database and mothers' reports.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 20569535 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|OBJECTIVE: The validity of epidemiologic research on congenital malformations conducted using administrative databases relies heavily on the quality of diagnostic information. The goal of this study was to validate the diagnostic codes for major congenital malformations (MCMs) recorded in a medical service claims database against mother's report obtained by questionnaire. METHODS: Using the Quebec Pregnancy Registry, we mailed a questionnaire to women who gave birth to a baby with an MCM and to a random sample of mothers whose infants did not have any malformation. We reviewed each infant's database record for a diagnostic code for MCM, which we then compared with the corresponding mother's report. RESULTS: Among the 3142 mother-infant pairs there was 60% agreement regarding the presence or absence of an MCM; for 456 babies, both sources reported the presence of an MCM. For 90% of these infants the two sources of information agreed with respect to the type of malformation. CONCLUSION: Overall, mothers reported fewer infants with MCM than were recorded in the database; among those for whom both sources of information indicated the presence of an MCM, a very high proportion of diagnostic codes accorded with the mother's description of the specific type of malformation.

How about doing AIN'T MISBEHAVIN' as a midnight show?
Of course there's nothing wrong with presenting the Tony-winning smash hit at your usual 8 p.m. start or by having matinees at 2 or 3 p.m. Thousands have done so and have seen felicitous results.
But while I was watching original director Richard Maltby, Jr.'s sharp new production at the Delaware Theatre Company, I was reminded that the songs which Fats Waller (1904-1943) wrote or recorded are often ribald. They employ more double entendres than ANNIE has orphans.
Now I'm not saying that the show should be X-rated. Far from it. The three women or two men ain't even ostensibly misbehavin'. While there are as many sex songs as love songs, they're accompanied by little more than an occasional affectionate poke in the ribs or some smile-inducing huggin'.
Still, many songs imply that hedonism is on this cast's minds – or at least has been. The way that Debra Walton sings "Keepin' out of Mischief Now" shows that her character has now fallen in genuine love to the point where she'll now walk the straight and narrow. But she doesn't neglect to let us know she's already been around the block several times.
Apparently "Fats" (real name: Thomas) had not only a lusty appetite for food, but also an equally voracious one for matters of the flesh. True, he can't be named the most responsible for any naughtiness, for he didn't write the words but "only" composed the music. Nevertheless, there's no mistaking that he was attracted to sexy subject matter.
While one song is matter-of-factly titled "Find out What They Like," the line that follows is "and how they like it, and let 'em have it just that way." Believe me, when Cynthia Thomas and Kecia Lewis sing it, they aren't urging women to get store-bought gifts as presents for their men. "Get some cash for your trash" may seem to be a public service announcement, but here Kecia and Doug Eskew manage to make it sound sexual. "I'm Gonna Sit Right down and Write Myself a Letter" has a lyric that the singer will put "a lot of kisses on the bottom" – meaning at the end of the letter — but here Doug implies that he'll bestow kisses on Kecia's gluteus maximus.
Thus Maltby has his singers play into the benign bawdiness. Although one lyric goes "I don't know my elbow from my ear," here Kecia takes a few seconds' pause between "my" and "ear" to make us believe that she had prepared to cite a different part of the body that's located a couple of feet lower. And when Cynthia sings "Squeeze Me," she takes no chances that anyone might miss the point; she invitingly flutters her eyelashes with the speed of an in-heat hummingbird that's beating its wings.
What's especially wonderful about AIN'T MISBEHAVIN' is that two of its three ladies are cast with ample-sized women who are consistently characterized as sexually desirable. Neither of the show's two men seems ready to snarl "You look fat in that dress" in standard-issue male-insensitive fashion; instead, each makes moon-faced and starry-eyed looks filled with I-want-you-tonight hunger. Oh, there is a song in which Doug complains that "Your Feet's Too Big," but he makes no protest on what the lady sports from the ankles up. Even if he did, both Kecia and Cynthia have more than enough self-esteem to believe that the problem would be Doug's and Doug's alone.
Although every dramatic work is supposed to have conflict, revues are usually excused from this demand. And yet, AIN'T MISBEHAVIN' does have some friction as each woman makes no bones about being in competition with the others both for stage time and the men. There is one fewer man, after all, and, to cite a 1969 film, "Three into Two Won't Go" (well, not if they ain't misbehavin'). Whenever Kecia or Cynthia finds that Doug or Eugene Fleming is interested in the skinnier Debra, she doesn't go to pieces, feel inferior or blame herself. She instead castigates him for not treating her in the way that she rightly deserves.
On the other hand, all the women aren't above looking into the audience, catching the eye of an audience member and overtly flirting before snarling such sentiments as "Eat your heart out!"
The biggest conflict comes at the end of the first act as the company sings "The Joint Is Jumpin'." Actually, "jumpin'" is putting it mildly, for in the middle of a song, the men fight over (what else?) the women, which leads to Doug's pulling out a gun and firing it.
At least he points it to the ceiling, and none of the others is hurt. Perhaps no one in your audience will be startled, for you'll probably have the now-ubiquitous sign in your lobby alerting people that "a gunshot will be fired during this performance" (a sign that, when you think of it, always ruins the suspense of a show).
Underneath the gunshot warning you may well also warn that "Cigarettes will be smoked during this performance." Many will wish that what Eugene is said to be smoking is a mere cigarette, but "The Viper's Drag" concerns a very different substance. Be aware of this before planning a production; one never knows, do one, if some in your community might object.
However, you might get away with it if you treat the song in the wise way that Maltby does. He's instructed Eugene to blow some fancy smoke rings; Fleming does it with such aplomb that the audience finds itself distracted by the smoke-show.
Say what you will, the sequence is historically accurate. Long before the era of "sex and drugs and rock and roll," Waller lived in a world of sex and drugs and jazz. Granted, "The Viper's Drag" is the only song that alludes to drug use. But be apprised that it's there.
Have we mentioned that the show celebrates African-Americans and is performed by them? That leads to "Black and Blue," the show's penultimate sequence. It's a serious moment in which the five sing lyricist Andy Razaf's rueful observations on the racial luck of the draw: "What did I do to be so black — and blue? … I can't hide what is on my face … I'm so forlorn … My heart is torn; why was I born?" Even the hardest of hearts would have to soften after hearing this song.
Because the show ostensibly takes place in a Harlem nightclub, you won't need much of a set. A false proscenium arch with a ribbon of tiny lights placed around it will swing it. Put your six-piece band behind it, and you're all (pardon the pun) set.
Those who play in large orchestras for large musicals wind up being anonymous in that pit below the stage. But musicians in small bands in musicals as small as AIN'T MISBEHAVIN' don't suffer that fate. During the entr'acte, which follows an act in which each musician has proved himself worthy, the trombonist, trumpeter and saxophonist each gets a moment to stand and play (the bass player, of course, has been standing all along); a nice round of applause awaits each. Of course, the drummer remains seated while making the drums go bang and the cymbals clang, but he gets a solo and just as much applause as the others.
What else? Find yourself an expert spotlight operator. Here in Delaware, Cindy Adams gets program credit and deserves it for aptly illuminating each and every performer at the right place at the right time and holding steady. Compare this to a musical I saw recently where the person on the follow spot jiggled it so much that I thought, "Lucky for us that he doesn't work with plutonium. We'd all be blown to kingdom come."
When Clive Barnes reviewed A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC for The New York Times in 1973, he exclaimed "Good God! An adult musical!" Here's betting that when AIN'T MISBEHAVIN' opened, he wished he's saved the line for this hit.

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A week after a woman told police her husband had threatened to kill her, he sideswiped her car and caused a wreck that resulted in her death.
Jamey Christy was arrested Thursday. He is charged with contempt of court for failing to stay away from his wife after a domestic assault arrest, but officers say he will face more charges. His bond was set at 1 million dollars.
A Tennessee Highway Patrol spokeswoman said he sideswiped the car of his estranged wife, Elizabeth Christy.
That sent her car off the side of the road and into an embankment where it flipped and caught fire. Elizabeth Christy was ejected from the vehicle and died.
Highway Patrol Trooper Shane Moore said he will likely charge the husband with homicide or vehicular homicide.

Earlier this week, John Limbert, who was held hostage at the American Embassy in Tehran 30 years ago, began his job at the State Department as the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Iran. Limbert also served on the advisory board of the National Iranian American Council, which the Washington Times reports today is almost certainly in violation of federal lobbying regulations and whose chief, Trita Parsi, seems to be working as an unregistered foreign agent, arranging meetings for Iranian officials with members of Congress and others. Among the emails obtained by THE WEEKLY STANDARD is a thank you note from Limbert to Parsi, who was kind enough to arrange a meeting between Limbert and the Iranian ambassador to the United Nations, Javad Zarif, in early 2007. On February 26, 2007, Limbert emailed:
I wanted to thank you for arranging the meeting with Ambassador Zarif. We had a very profitable session during my recent trip to New York.
Thanks again for all your help.
When Limbert met with Zarif, he was just a private citizen, who for some unknown reason wanted to meet with the ambassador of a country that held him hostage for 444 days. Of course, Zarif is also in the news today for his illegal activities related to the Alavi Foundation, an Iranian front group that was managing more than $500 million in assets now seized by the US government. The rental income from these properties was being funneled back to an Iranian bank that the US Treasury Department says is providing support to Iran's nuclear program.
So just to be clear: Ambassador Zarif is not a good guy and he's not on our team. He's on Team Iran, he is complicit in the policies of that regime, and he does not hesitate to break the laws of this country even as he resides here under the auspices of the United Nations.
In a statement blasting Lake's Washington Times story, NIAC points to Limbert's history as a hostage and his role on the NIAC advisory board and asks "Why would Ambassador John Limbert, a former hostage imprisoned for 444 days by the government in Iran, join the advisory board of an organization that supposedly represents the interests of the very same government that imprisoned him? This claim is illogical at best and ludicrous at worst."
So why would Limbert want to meet with Zarif? It's certainly something most people would find odd -- why would a former hostage want to enjoy the company of the representative of the regime that took him hostage? The meeting was "profitable"? So if Limbert was happy to associate with Zarif, who today also happens to be at the center of "one of the biggest counterterrorism seizures in US history" per the AP, maybe it's not so illogical that he would join the advisory board of an organization that "supposedly" represents the interests of the very same government that imprisoned him? Who knows, maybe Limbert's got Stockholm syndrome.
Of course, I'm sure Parsi's defenders will not be troubled in the least by the fact that he is so close to an Iranian official, Zarif, who is brazenly violating U.S. law in a scheme to funnel money to the Iranian nuclear program. Nothing unusual or shady about that -- who doesn't have friends overseeing illegal real estate empires that are used to fund the nuclear programs of hostile, authoritarian regimes?

CHAMBERSBURG >> The founder of the Chambersburg Half Marathon, the oldest race in Chambersburg, passed away earlier this week.
Chuck Lesher was 93.
Many of the area's younger runners probably have no idea who Lesher was and what he meant to the Chambersburg running community.
John Ausherman, race director for the Tom Ausherman Memorial 5-Mile Race, says Lesher, one of the co-founders of the Chambersburg Road Runners Club, should be remembered and appreciated for his efforts in putting Chambersburg on the map as a premier running destination.
"There's no Road Runners if not for Chuck Lesher," Ausherman said. "The Chambersburg Half Marathon was his baby. It's the oldest race in Chambersburg and he was very, very involved in it, even into his 80s.
"It's kind of weird that he died four days before the race. This is the one he probably took the most pride in."
For love of the sport
In today's world, many races are created to make a quick buck.
That wasn't Lesher's style.
Ausherman said Lesher was about spreading the good word of running, convincing everyone he could to give the sport a try.
Sometimes, Ausherman said, Lesher's desire to grow the sport may have made him come across a bit rude.
"He'd ask, 'What's your name and why aren't you a Chambersburg Road Runner?'" Ausherman said. "He'd say, 'If you're not a Road Runner, you need to be.' The runners always came first for Chuck and he was always about making the race a good experience for them."
Dan Grandel, a former treasurer and board member for the Chambersburg Road Runners, called Lesher the "heart and soul" of the organization.
Grandel said Lesher introduced him to running, and he introduced Lesher to bicycling. He described Lesher as outgoing and recalled a cross-country biking trip from Chambersburg to Oregon in the mid-1980s.
"We stopped in a restaurant in Nebraska and before we left, Chuck knew half of the people in the restaurant," Grandel said. "He got a lot of people into running. And for the runners in the area, it didn't take long for them to become associated with him."
Wealth of knowledge
Ausherman said he organizes one big race per year. That is a difficult task in itself. But Lesher, he said, was on a different level.
In his prime, Lesher would organize at least four big races a year in addition to countless club and fun runs.
Lesher, who served in the Air Force, was a meteorologist, a math teacher and a bridge player, was described by Ausherman as a genius. Lesher was tireless in his passion for running and knew, from A to Z, how to put on a great race. He never left a stone unturned.
"One time he called me at 10:30 the night before a race and asked me, 'Do you have a bank?'" Ausherman said. "I said, 'What do you mean?' He asked me if I had the ability to make change in the morning. If someone handed me a 20-dollar bill, would I be able to give them change? I had not thought about that.
"Chuck had a list and he did it the right way."
Grandel said that Lesher's passing is a great loss to the Chambersburg running community.
Ausherman described Lesher as an incredible person and hopes that his story can be remembered.
"You just don't find people with that energy and work ethic," Ausherman said. "I just want to make sure people in Chambersburg recognize and appreciate what he did."

Answer: 3 cents. During the Civil War, when people were hoarding coins for their metallic value or melting them down to make ammunition, the U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing started issuing postage-stamp-size "fractional currency" in 3, 5, 10, 25, and 50 cent denominations. The practice ended in 1876.

Special to The State Journal
Senior Chris Current poured in 30 points and the Frankfort Panthers rode an improved defense to a 71-66 victory over the Grant County Braves Saturday afternoon in the Jessamine County Classic.
Frankfort improved to 9-3 while Grant County fell to 5-6.
"Chris had 19 in the second half, so he kind of took over the game a little bit," FHS coach Scott Chalk said.
Dustin Plunkett scored 26 and Robert Bounds 20 to lead the Braves.
But Chalk said his team did a good defensive job on Braves' star Tyler Jones, limiting the Miami of Ohio-signee to 14 points.
"One thing positive I can say defensively is we did limit Tyler Jones' shots," Chalk said. "He had only 14. He's a three-point shooter, and we did a good job of not letting him get good looks."

Baird Welcomes Nomination of Prime Minister in Iraq
August 11, 2014 - Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird today issued the following statement:
"Canada welcomes the news today that Iraqi president Fuad Masoum has accepted the nomination of Haider al-Abadi, who comes from the largest bloc in Parliament, as prime minister-designate. Iraqis have taken another important step toward the formation of an inclusive government.
"Iraq's constitution now requires the nominee to present a new government and national program to Iraq's parliament for approval within 30 days. Canada calls upon all of Iraq's political leaders to work together across sectarian and ethnic divides to ensure this is a swift, transparent and peaceful process. Only a unified, pluralistic and representative government can overcome the current crisis.
"Canada stands ready to support the people and Government of Iraq as they confront the ISIS [Islamic State of Iraq and Syria] insurgency. Yesterday Canada announced an additional $5-million humanitarian assistance contribution to help Iraqis affected by violence."

Join MDA Team Momentum and the Muscular Dystrophy Association's endurance event program.
Chari Schwartz chose to run her first marathon for MDA in the 2013 Bank of America Chicago Marathon.
After I finished the half marathon in Chicago 6 years ago, one of the first questions people asked me was, "Will you run a marathon now?" My response was "NO WAY!! I'm done!" But deep down inside, I knew that I was not fully satisfied.
When I started running back in the 90s, I had set a goal that I would run a marathon one day. Each year I kept putting it off, not feeling ready. So when a friend asked me this year if I would consider doing it with her, I jumped at the chance, not only to finally reach my goal of running 26.2 miles, but also to use this event as an opportunity to raise money for muscular dystrophy, a condition that has impacted my family for the last 20 years.
My mom was about 50 years old when she started feeling symptoms. It began when she was a schoolteacher, and after sitting on the floor with her pre-school students, she found that she had a hard time getting up from a sitting position on her own. Her symptoms slowly progressed to include weakness in her hips and legs, trouble with balance, and pain. She would have moments where one of her legs would just "give out" from under her, and had many scary falls, with the black and blue marks to show for them. We are all very lucky that those falls didn't lead to something more serious. Over the course of 15 years, she took test after test, saw specialist after specialist, and was misdiagnosed several times. Finally about five years ago, she took a genetic test to find that she indeed had type 2 Myotonic muscular dystrophy.
My mom is a true fighter and an inspiration to me. While she has lost most of her independence and can no longer walk unassisted, she continues to persevere no matter the challenge – crawling up stairs on her hands and knees, using her arm and back muscles to lift herself up off the couch, refusing help unless she absolutely needs it. Though she may be silently suffering, tired, or in pain, she still can't wait to make dinner for my family and entertain us when we visit her in Florida, or to take me shopping to her favorite stores, or play with my kids any chance she gets.
I am running for MDA in honor and in celebration of my mom, and I am so lucky to have so many wonderful friends and family members supporting me in this journey. During my long training runs, I am truly motivated by the idea that the money I am raising can help MDA fund research for a treatment and cure and provide needed services for my mom and others with neuromuscular diseases.

Central, Coe Tip-Off Iowa Conference Today
Posted By Sports On January 5, 2013 @ 5:57 am In Today's Local Sports | Comments Disabled
After decent success in their non-conference games, the Central men's and women's basketball teams will take to the road to open Iowa Conference play this afternoon in a match-up with conference favorite Coe College. The Dutch women didn't find the momentum they were looking for heading into today's game; falling to Monmouth on Wednesday by a final score of 81 – 48. Both the Dutch and Kohawks are 7 – 4, and each have had their problems with an inconsistent offense. The Coe men return several of their players from last year's team and are projected as the favorites to win the Iowa Conference. Head coach Craig Douma told KNIA/KRLS Sports that it will be key for his guys to get off to a quick start and not show any rust after having 20-plus days between games. Douma also said that this game will be a true measuring stick as to where they are as a team at this point in the season. Today's doubleheader will be aired live on 92.1 KRLS with Cory Houser calling the action, starting with the KNIA/KRLS pregame show at 1:45 p.m. and the women tipping off at 2:00. The Iowa Conference showdown will also be streamed live at kniakrls.com.

Wii leaps ahead of Xbox 360, PS3 in March sales
updated 04:10 pm EDT, Fri April 18, 2008
Wii Leads March NPD Sales
Nintendo's Wii console continues to be the strongest-selling of all systems a year and a half after its launch, according to March statistics from The NPD Group. The organization says that about 720,000 examples of the motion-driven Wii were sold last month, helped in part by both its lower $250 price and the launch of the first Super Smash Brothers game for the platform. The result is nearly three times the 262,000 Xbox 360s sold and a slightly larger increase again over the PlayStation 3, which was near-equal at 257,000 systems sold.
Handheld game systems also fared better than the two less successful TV-based consoles, The Nintendo DS sold nearly as many units in March as the Wii at 698,000 devices, while the more expensive but more feature-laden PSP sold 297,000 examples over the same period.
While Sony's PS3 fared the poorest of the collection, the company nonetheless touts the sales number as a major improvement and notes that it sold 98 percent more of the Blu-ray systems in March 2008 than it did the year before. Sony's sales boosts in recent months have been widely credited both to the launch of a $399 40GB model and the end to the format war between Blu-ray and HD DVD, which has encouraged more users to buy into the Sony-backed Blu-ray format for movies as well as games.
Sales numbers are expected to change radically by the end of this month, as the simultaneous launch of Grand Theft Auto 4 for the PS3 and Xbox 360 is predicted to trigger at least a minor spike in sales of the systems to gamers either trading up from older consoles or buying additional current-generation systems.

To hit on all sixes, the gang needs their daily tea fix. Crushed is also a necessity, added to at least one cup a day, plus many other foods and beverages. Queen Song would like to share her original three recipes.
The Sweet tooth
¼t Crushed + 1t black tea + 1T honey + 8oz hot milk
The Calorie conscious
¼t Crushed + 1t black tea + 2t honey + 4oz hot milk + 4oz hot water
The Purist
¼t Crushed + 1t your favorite tea + 8oz hot water
Combine Crushed and desired tea in an infuser, steep to taste, add honey, stir, and enjoy.
*Sugar in the raw or granulated sugar can be substituted for honey.
Crushed is a combination of aromatic spices that are so good, we feel like we're dealing in a racket. Get your peepers ready because each week we will be adding family pictures and recipes. We are into simple and easy, so everything we post will be just that. Our spice blend contains seven incredible ingredients, no tedious mixing and measuring required.
The pursuit for the perfect spice blend began with tea. Indian masala, a spices mixture used in beverages and/or food, claimed a place in our mob's heart. Many combinations of spices passed our kissers before Crushed was created. Imbibing at least one spiced tea a day is ritual. For ages we would individually add each spice to each cup of tea. It was time consuming and a youngster suggested making up a larger quantity to keep for convenience sake.
The use of Crushed expanded when a hoodlum mixed it into their oatmeal for breakfast. Off to the races, the blend was added to other breakfast dishes such as French toast, pancakes, cereal and Belgium waffles. Continued success won over discriminating taste buds and elitist scent hounds. The next thing you know, Crushed was showing up in all sorts of dishes, sweet and savory.
We're going big time and muscling our way into the tea and spices trade, so watch out!
Buy Crushed and try all three recipes and tell us your favorite. Better yet, experiment, find your own, and let us know about it so that we can pass it on.
Life's toiling, the water's boiling, drink more tea…
Spices include: Cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, clove, nutmeg, fennel, black pepper.

text: Sorry Neal we posted at the same time lol I completely agree with you. I just wonder if with a 35mm the number of times it's needed the additional cost involved would be worth the facility? As I say I could be wrong but if not many people did use the option and buy the other prisms, then everyone buying the F6 would be paying extra to have the option that is not needed.

Having previously swallowed the bitter pill of modernism, contemporary society, apparently having found lacking satisfaction in the acceptance of false truths, has given up the trouble of assessing propositions and seen fit to dispense with the idea of truth altogether.
The embrace of the postmodern paradigm, properly understood as it pertains to the alleged relativity of truth, is an act as impossible as erecting a house without a foundation; but considerations of consistency have not seemed to bother its adherents or in any way slowed its societal advance.

Fava beans are oval-shaped light brown beans with an earthy flavor and creamy texture. An excellent source of folate and a good source of fiber. Fava Beans can be purchased fresh or dried. When using dried beans, it is best to use beans that have been split so that the very tough skin is easier to remove and the cooking time will be faster. As with any dried bean, soaking is required to re-hydrate the beans before they are cooked.
We do know for sure that Fava Beans are low in calories and in fat, with no cholesterol. They're also high in protein, iron, and fiber, and are good sources of vitamin C, vitamin A, and potassium K and phosphorus.. They have high concentrations of L-dopa (dopamine), an amino acid that is a neurotransmitter in the brain. It contains omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acid. It is low fat, high protein and rich in dietary fiber.

An army of staff and volunteers from Glasgow Life, Glasgow City Council and the RSPBA are involved in making sure the World Pipe Band Championships is one of the best events in Scotland's cultural calendar. Last week, their efforts were celebrated at the Scottish Event Awards, in association with Event Scotland, where the Worlds won in the Best Traditional Event category.
Ian Embelton, the Chief Executive of the RSPBA, said: "The Worlds have been associated with Glasgow for more than 60 years, but with the dedication of staff, in particular, those at Glasgow Life, the event has gone from strength to strength in recent years. This year, we trialled a two-day festival of the very best of the traditional piping competition, alongside the very best of Scottish culture and cuisine. The transformation of Glasgow Green is something to behold and none of it could happen without the hard work and dedication of Glasgow Life staff."
Colin Hartley, the Head of Events at Glasgow Life, said: "We are always looking at what we can do to improve each and every event we work on - and the Worlds is a great example of where, through partnership, we can keep developing and engaging with traditional and new audiences. We have such a wealth of creative talent in this city and our events, from sport to culture and everything in between, provide an opportunity to showcase to visitors and citizens alike. This is an award not just for our Events team, but for all of our colleagues across Glasgow Life, who support us in putting on such great shows."
