Pulmonary toxicities associated with chemotherapeutic agents utilized as adjuvant therapy in patients with breast cancer are distinctly uncommon. The chemotherapy regimen of docetaxel/cyclophosphamide has a more favorable therapeutic index compared to anthracycline-based regimens due to a significantly lower incidence of heart failure and leukemia. Consequently, docetaxel/cyclophosphamide is the preferred adjuvant chemotherapy of choice in older women or in women where anthracyclines may be contraindicated. Pulmonary complications in patients with breast cancer receiving taxane-based adjuvant chemotherapy in the absence of radiation are distinctly uncommon. Here, we report the case of a patient receiving adjuvant docetaxel/cyclophosphamide who developed rapid-onset, biopsy-proven interstitial pneumonitis.
Case presentation
A 72-year-old Hispanic woman was diagnosed as having stage 3 hormone-receptor positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2/neu negative, invasive breast cancer. Due to the estimated 10-year risk of recurrence of approximately 80 percent, a decision was made to treat our patient with adjuvant chemotherapy. Due to her age and increased risk of cardiac toxicity with anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens, our patient was treated with docetaxel/cyclophosphamide chemotherapy for a total of four planned cycles. However, approximately two weeks after receiving the third cycle of chemotherapy, our patient developed rapidly progressive dyspnea, and a non-productive cough and went to the emergency room at an outside medical facility. She was found to have mild hypoxemia, and new onset of peripheral, subpleural fibrotic changes not present on pre-treatment scans. A thorascopic-guided wedge biopsy of the lung tissue revealed subacute interstitial pneumonitis. Our patient made a rapid clinical recovery after treatment with corticosteroids.
Interstitial pneumonitis is a rare complication of docetaxel/cyclophosphamide chemotherapy that carries a high mortality rate. The only way to make a definitive diagnosis is with a wedge biopsy of the lung, which should be performed when feasible. Our patient's case illustrates that no therapeutic intervention is without its intrinsic and unanticipated risks, and interstitial pneumonitis should be discussed as a potential side effect with all patients prior to administering docetaxel/cyclophosphamide chemotherapy.
One of the primary disadvantages of most cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents is their narrow therapeutic index due to off target adverse effects [1]. While the most common chemotherapy-related toxicities are typically self-limiting, others are much less common, and potentially life threatening. One of the most feared toxicities of adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer is anthracycline-induced cardiac toxicity, and therapy-induced leukemia. Lung-related toxicities with chemotherapeutic agents used in breast cancer are distinctly uncommon, however they are well known with drugs used in other solid tumors, for example, bleomycin and methotrexate [2].
Docetaxel/cyclophosphamide (TC) has been shown in a prospective randomized trial to be superior to doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide (AC) in improving overall and disease-free survival in patients with breast cancer, with a more favorable therapeutic index due to a significantly lower incidence of heart failure and leukemia [3]. TC is consequently the preferred adjuvant chemotherapy of choice in women with lymph-node negative breast cancer, and when anthracyclines are contraindicated. Pulmonary complications are not commonly associated with docetaxel or cyclophosphamide, and only a small number of cases have been reported in the literature [4-21]. Here, we present the case of a patient receiving adjuvant TC who developed rapid-onset interstitial pneumonitis, illustrating that no therapeutic intervention is without its intrinsic and unanticipated risks.
Case presentation
A 72-year-old non-smoking Hispanic woman was initially diagnosed as having a large right breast mass measuring 11×7×11cm on physical examination, and axillary adenopathy. A core biopsy of the right breast and axillary lymph nodes revealed infiltrating lobular breast carcinoma with metastasis to the axilla. The tumor was both estrogen-receptor and progesterone-receptor positive (ER+/PR+) with Allred scores of 8 and 3, respectively. Immunostains for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)/neu were negative. Aside from the breast and axillary masses, the remainder of her physical exam was unremarkable. A subsequent staging bone scan and computed tomography scan did not demonstrate any evidence of distant metastases, and she was therefore clinically staged as T3, N2 M0. She was given pre-operative endocrine therapy with exemestane (25mg) daily. Our patient tolerated exemestane well with a clinical reduction in the size of the breast mass. After approximately six months after starting exemestane, our patient underwent a right modified radical mastectomy and axillary lymph node dissection. Histological examination revealed extensive tumor (ypT3ypN3) with 17 out of 20 lymph nodes involved with metastatic disease.
Due to the estimated 10-year risk of recurrence of approximately 80 percent, a decision was made to treat our patient with adjuvant chemotherapy. Due to her age and the increased risk of cardiac toxicity with anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens, our patient was treated with TC chemotherapy (docetaxel 75mg/m2 and cyclophosphamide 600mg/m2) once every three weeks for a total of four planned cycles [3].
Our patient had no other medical problems prior to her diagnosis of breast cancer aside from gastro-esophageal reflux. Her surgical history, aside from the mastectomy and lymph node dissection, included a prior appendectomy for appendicitis and complete resection of a basal cell carcinoma from her right leg. Our patient had no known prior history of pulmonary or cardiac disease. She worked as a phlebotomist, and there were no known occupational exposures to industrial chemicals that would have given her a greater risk of developing pulmonary disease.
Our patient had no major toxicities or issues related to chemotherapy, aside from fatigue (grade 1 to 2) and nausea and emesis (grade 2) with the first two cycles. However, approximately two weeks after receiving the third cycle of chemotherapy, our patient developed rapidly progressive dyspnea, and a non-productive cough, and went to the emergency room at an outside medical facility. She was found to have mild hypoxemia. A computed tomography (CT) angiogram was performed, which was negative for evidence of a pulmonary embolus, but did reveal the new onset of peripheral, subpleural fibrotic changes not present on pre-treatment scans (Figure 1).
Figure 1. Computed tomography scans before (A), and (B) after the third cycle of docetaxel/cyclophosphamide chemotherapy .
An attempt to pursue a needle lung biopsy at the outside hospital was complicated by a pneumothorax that required chest tube placement. Our patient was then transferred to the University of Miami hospital, for a thorascopic-guided wedge biopsy. Microscopic examination of the lung tissue revealed subacute interstitial pneumonitis evolving into areas of chronicity characterized by the presence of widening of alveolar septae with mild mononuclear infiltrates, collections of eosinophils, and pneumocyte injury (Figure 2). The latter was manifested by the presence of conspicuous Mallory body-like inclusions in hyperplastic pneumocytes. Areas of honeycombing were seen in the subpleural spaces. There was no evidence of any associated malignancy. Our patient was started on corticosteroids with rapid improvement of her dyspnea. Approximately one month later after her presentation to the emergency room, she no longer required supplemental oxygen, and had minimal dyspnea with exertion. Our patient was not given any additional chemotherapy, and was then referred for post-mastectomy radiotherapy. A CT scan performed approximately three months later showed improvement of the previously seen pulmonary infiltrates (Figure 3).

Pneumocyte hyperplasia is observed (×200, hematoxylin and eosin stain). (B) Hyperplastic pneumocytes showing pink and irregular Mallory body-like inclusions (×400, hematoxylin and eosin stain).

We present the case of a woman who developed interstitial pneumonitis (IP) after the third cycle of TC chemotherapy, with no other identifiable risk factors. Using the key words 'docetaxel', 'pneumonitis' and 'interstitial' on PubMed identifies 41 papers in English published in the last 15 years, of which 17 represent reports of lung toxicity in patients receiving docetaxel: 15 specifically of pneumonitis and two reports of bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia [19,20]. In those 15 papers, there were a total of 48 cases, with more than half of the cases having other lung comorbidities and no histological confirmation of the diagnosis making the diagnosis of IP uncertain (Table 1).
Table 1. Summary of published cases in the English literature reported as of July 2012 of docetaxel-related interstitial pneumonitis
The largest published series of docetaxel-related IP, was from Japan and reported 18 different cases of interstitial pneumonitis, out of a total of 392 patients with metastatic NSCLC treated with docetaxel (60mg/m2), that is, an overall incidence of 4.6 percent [4]. However, 67 percent of the patients that developed interstitial pneumonitis had prior evidence of either chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or interstitial changes on CT scan, and the diagnosis was not confirmed by biopsy. Therefore other etiologies not related to chemotherapy, such as lymphangitic carcinomatosis, were not excluded. An exploratory analysis in this study identified a significantly increased risk of interstitial pneumonitis in patients with pre-existing radiographic evidence of emphysema (OR 4.95, P=0.016) or interstitial changes (OR 25.9, P<0.05). The authors concluded that docetaxel should not be used in patients with pre-existing interstitial changes on CT scan, however only seven of 27 of such patients developed pneumonitis, and therefore this recommendation should be viewed with some skepticism especially in patients where the overall therapeutic goal is curative and not palliative. Histopathologic descriptions due to docetaxel-related pulmonary toxicity are scant and lack details of the findings. Among the cases with histological descriptions and photomicrographs, they are limited to mentioning the non-descriptive terms of interstitial pneumonitis/fibrosis. Rare cases have shown tissue eosinophilia. Our patient showed increased numbers of eosinophils, further supporting the view of an exogenous injury such as drug toxicity as the cause of pneumonitis (Figure 2). Also, the presence of Mallory-like bodies in pneumocytes indicates that the damage at the cellular level was restricted primarily to the epithelial lining of the alveoli [22].
In our review of previously published cases of docetaxel-related interstitial pneumonitis, in most cases pneumonitis occurred after two cycles, reported as early as after the first cycle, and as late as after the ninth cycle. The overall mortality rate from drug associated interstitial fibrosis estimated from published case reports appears to be approximately 40 percent with 12 deaths in 30 cases where mortality data was available (Table 1) [15].
However, pneumonitis is a well-established toxicity of the alkylating agent cyclophosphamide [2]. The overall incidence is unknown, but has been estimated to be less than one percent of all patients who receive cyclophosphamide, with several confounding factors, including patients concomitantly receiving other drugs known to cause pneumonitis [2]. In a retrospective review from the Mayo Clinic, 35 cases in a 20-year period were found with suspected cyclophosphamide-induced interstitial pneumonitis, of which 29 were found to have other possible etiologies [21]. Of the remaining six cases, one patient had early-onset pneumonitis occurring approximately six months after initiation of cyclophosphamide, while five others developed late-onset pneumonitis, where three died and in the other two patients follow-up information was unavailable [21]. The same authors performed a retrospective review that revealed seven cases of early-onset pneumonitis and five cases of late-onset pneumonitis with a mortality rate of 29 percent in the early-onset cases, and 80 percent in the late-onset cases.
The incidence of interstitial pneumonitis in patients receiving TC chemotherapy is unknown. It is highly probable that it is a very rare complication, since thousands of patients are treated each year with both agents simultaneously, yet only a few scattered reports have emerged in the literature. Since our patient received both drugs, it is not possible to determine which agent is responsible, but the clinical, radiological and histological findings strongly support the diagnosis of drug-induced pneumonitis.
TC is commonly used as a safer alternative to anthracyclines in older patients with breast cancer, because of a more favorable toxicity profile in comparison, but our patient's case illustrates that no chemotherapy is free of risk, and that unanticipated serious complications, such as interstitial pneumonitis, can occur [3]. Fortunately, our patient made a rapid recovery and does not appear to have suffered any permanent damage. Medical oncologists should be aware that while distinctly uncommon, interstitial pneumonitis is a possible serious adverse toxicity associated with docetaxel/cyclophosphamide-based chemotherapy.
Written informed consent was obtained from the patient for publication of this case report and any accompanying images. A copy of the written consent is available for review by the Editor-in-Chief of this journal.

Built out over the Chagres River, this open-air restaurant at the Gamboa Rainforest Resort is a great place to see turtles, fish, crocodiles, and waterfowl feeding in the hyacinth-laden water. If you travel with binoculars, you'll definitely want to bring them here, so that you can watch wildlife while you wait for your lunch. A small buffet is frequently available, but the à la carte selection is usually a better deal, with choices such as peacock bass in a mustard sauce, grouper topped with an avocado sauce and cheese, or the hearty, spicy fisherman's stew. Lighter items include Caesar salad, hamburgers, and quesadillas. It isn't Panama's best food, but it's good, and the view of the forest-hemmed Chagres River populated with grebes, jacanas, turtles, and other wildlife is worth the trip out here even if you have only a cup of tea.

Clitheroe's resurgence under interim manager Lee Sculpher came to a shuddering halt at Valerie Park on Saturday with a comprehensive defeat against Prescot Cables.
There were two changes to last week's starting XI as Matty Fearon and Marcus Calvert replaced Sam Christensen and Alex Johnson respectively, with Chris Smalley switching to centre-half. Altrincham loanee Tom Davidson was named among the substitutes and made his debut from the bench in the second half.
Clitheroe made a brisk start to the game with Oliver Devenney firing in a strike which ricocheted around the Prescot box after Nat Taylor had released Marcus Calvert down the right-hand side of the penalty area. Taylor looked capable of causing the Prescot backline problems but this was largely the only effort the Blues mustered in a lacklustre opening half.
In the 8th minute Ged Kinsella issued a warning of things to come as his shot from distance clipped the post.
Prescot took the lead in the 19th minute when Michael Reid picked out Joseph Gibiliru who fired past Zack Hibbert after showing excellent skill and composure to engineer an opening for himself. The home side came close to adding a second moments later but Ashley Ruane failed to make the necessary contact with Steven Tames' dangerous low cross.
The Tigers did not have long to wait before extending their advantage as the influential Gibiliru added to his tally with an inswinging free-kick from the left which bypassed a crowded penalty area and found the bottom corner.
The half time break afforded Clitheroe some respite but the hosts continued to dictate proceedings for much of the second period. Chris Rowntree had already drilled an effort wide of the post before Tames effectively ended the match as a contest on 55 minutes as he slotted home after latching onto Ruane's flick on. This display will have done little to harm Tames' burgeoning reputation with the forward catching the eye of a number of professional clubs, most notably Sheffield Wednesday.
Prescot continued to create chances and a powerful run and shot by Kinsella forced Hibbert into a decent save. Shortly afterwards John Couch picked out Ruane who rattled the bar with a superb improvised effort before missing the target with the rebound.
Substitute James Thomas compounded Clitheroe's misery with a fourth goal after 75 minutes, rifling a free-kick from range over the wall and past the outstretched dive of Hibbert. Ruane was close to adding a fifth but blasted narrowly over after Reid had wriggled through the visitors' defence.
A subdued Clitheroe did manage a consolation with six minutes remaining to give the scoreline a degree of respectability. Connor Smith reduced the arrears with similar ingenuity to that of Gibiliru in the first half after Glodi Kuba-Kuba had been denied by Prescot keeper Stephen Longrigg after racing clear.
There is no hiding the fact that Clitheroe were handsomely beaten today with Prescot extremely good value for this comfortable win, which incidentally was their first victory at Valerie Park in 2012. The forwarding of the clocks signals the business end of the football calendar and the manager has spoken of the importance of hitting the 40 point mark before thoughts can even begin to drift towards a ninth season at this level of football. The Blues will need to put this disappointing afternoon behind them and lift themselves ahead of a crucial fixture at Shawbridge in seven days time against Ossett Albion where they will look to build on the foundations laid over the last fortnight in the wins against Salford City and Warrington Town.
Prescot Cables: Stephen Longrigg, Chris Rowntree (Freddie Potter 64), Fraser Abblett, Michael Reid, Michael Grogan, Stewart McMullan, John Couch (James Thomas 73), Joseph Gibiliru (c) (James McCulloch 73), Steven Tames, Ged Kinsella, Ashley Ruane. Subs not used: Anthony James

The skies may have been dark, but the faces of Kathleen Kamins and Kit Illingworth were glowing as they left the new senior wing of the Finley Community Center Wednesday.
The pair had just spent the afternoon drinking coffee by the fire, taking a ukulele lesson, and playing a few rounds of doubles ping pong.
"That was a ball!" said Kamins, 68, beside the statue of Peanuts characters Lucy and Linus that graces the central courtyard.
Person Senior Wing
"It's a beautiful facility," added Illingworth, 64.
The first floor of the new Person Senior Wing of the community center is now open, offering a variety of classes and activities to folks 50 years and older.
A steady stream of seniors passed through the 24,000-square-foot center's glass doors Wednesday, paying the modest $2 fee to participate in drop-in activities like scrabble, pinochle, ping pong, and ukulele practice.
"The seniors are really in heaven," said Mary Beggs, a recreation specialist who works the front desk.
Fund-raising for new wing began in 2002 and accelerated after the 2010 groundbreaking for the $2.4 million building shell.
Some considered it risky for the city to build the shell in the middle of a recession without having the funds to complete the building. But Seniors Inc., the non-profit behind the private fund-raising effort, came through with several major donors to allow completion the $8 million facility.
The largest grant of $3.5 million came from the Ernest L. & Ruth W. Finley Foundation. In recognition of the donation, the wing was subsequently named in honor of the foundation's founder, Evert Person, former publisher of The Press Democrat.

Arkansas head coach Bret Bielema motions to his team against the Auburn Tigers Saturday in Fayetteville.
- Filed Under
Following last Saturday's comparatively better-played, 35-17 loss against eighth-ranked Auburn, Arkansas Coach Bret Bielema figuratively kicked himself for waiting nine games to promote freshman Brooks Ellis to starting middle linebacker for his 3-6 Razorbacks.
"In retrospect I wish I had made that move quite a bit sooner," Bielema said postgame in Fayetteville after Ellis made six tackles, with a half sack and made the defensive calls debuting as the man in the middle. "He's a natural at that position."
By Monday, Bielema wasn't punting himself quite as far. Not because film had ...

Alex Edler, right, congratulating Kevin Bieksa for a goal, signed a six-year extension. / Darryl Dyck, AP
The Vancouver Canucks prepared for defense of their back-to-back Presidents' trophies by locking in one of their top defensemen long-term.
Alex Edler signed a six-year extension that is worth a reported $30 million. He's making a pro-rated $3.25 million this season.
The deal would make him the highest-paid Canucks defenseman.
He led the team's defensemen in goals (11), assists (38), points (49), shots (228) and ice time (23:51) last season. He also led the team with 145 blocked shots and was third with 143 hits.
Edler is 26 and if he had been unsigned by July, he would have been one of the most sought-after free-agent defensemen.
With the signing, the Canucks' top four defensmen of Edler, Kevin Bieksa, Dan Hamhuis and Jason Garrison are signed through 2015-16 or beyond.
The Canucks open the season on Saturday night against the Anaheim Ducks.

Last night, I had the great pleasure of attending the LeGaL Foundation Annual Dinner, which took place at Capitale here in New York. The mood was festive — which wasn't surprising, given the successes of both LeGaL and the broader LGBT rights movement over the past year.
Here's my account of the evening, a celebration of the Foundation's 30th anniversary and an opportunity to honor some pioneers of the gay rights movement….
Cocktails began at 6 and dinner started at 7:30. Alas, working on Gay Standard Time, I missed out on the free booze and arrived shortly before dinner started. As I made my way across the packed ballroom, I bumped into trial lawyer Gregory Antollino — who was in excellent spirits, having just won a big award on behalf of an HIV-positive man in an employment discrimination case.
I was seated at the table of Jenner & Block, a strong supporter of the Foundation (which shouldn't come as a surprise, given Jenner's status as a pro-bono all-star firm). I got to chat over the course of the evening with Paul Smith, a hero of the gay rights movement for successfully arguing Lawrence v. Texas before the Supreme Court. Smith seemed relaxed and happy, perhaps because of the recent settlement in the epic Viacom/YouTube litigation (which Smith had been scheduled to argue before the Second Circuit on Monday — a court in which he has previously prevailed on behalf of his client, Viacom).
LeGaL's president, Karl Riehl, began the proceedings by welcoming everyone (and giving a shout-out to Above the Law, one of two throughout the evening; thanks for that, Karl!). He introduced LeGaL's new executive director, Matthew Skinner, who in turn introduced Professor Arthur Leonard, one of the organization's founders. Professor Leonard recounted LeGaL's early days, when it was known as the "Bar Association for Human Rights of Greater New York" — because some of its members were not out at work, in an age of greater discrimination against LGBT individuals.
Various luminaries of the LGBT world — including Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney (D-NY), Washington Post columnist Jonathan Capehart, and the indefatigable Edith Windsor, of United States v. Windsor fame — helped give out LeGaL's Community Vision Awards. This year, the worthy honorees were as follows:
- Credit Suisse, which has done much to advance LGBT rights on Wall Street;
- Brian Ellner, executive vice president at Edelman, and a major figure in the worlds of media, government, and politics; and
- Mary Bonauto, the longtime Civil Rights Project Director at Gay & Lesbian Advocates & Defenders (GLAD), who has been described as the Thurgood Marshall of marriage equality (by none other than ATL's regining Lawyer of the Year, Paul Weiss partner Roberta Kaplan).
In accepting her award, Mary Bonauto talked about how the LGBT community is on "a quintessentially American journey," moving from exclusion to equality. She marveled at the tremendous progress on the marriage-equality front, both legal and political, in the decade or so since the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court's landmark ruling in Goodridge v. Department of Public Health (which she litigated).
Marriage, of course, is not the only issue that matters to the LGBT community. Fortunately, progress on marriage equality has been accompanied by progress in a whole host of other important areas, including employment nondiscrimination laws, hate crime laws, anti-bullying laws, and gays in the military.
The fight for marriage equality is not over. Bonauto expressed hope that the Supreme Court will hand down a national standard to end the current patchwork of state laws that govern the issue — perhaps as early as June 2015.
The LGBT community has much to celebrate, but much remains to be done. Congratulations and thanks to LeGaL, Credit Suisse, Brian Ellner, and Mary Bonauto — and good luck to them as they continue their hard work in support of justice. If you'd like to support that work, you can do so here.

Over the years, the margarita recipe has remained pretty standard: tequila, orange liqueur, citrus. Hey, some things should never be messed with, and we understand that. But Las Brisas has a cocktail that's a sweet, welcome twist on an old classic. By adding just a teensy bit of amaretto to Sauza Hornitos, triple sec and lime, the Crystal Cove Margarita (all their margs have beachy names such as Thousand Steps and Emerald Bay) goes from tart to velvety smooth. The amaretto's rich, nutty finish cuts the drink's otherwise-tangy bite, giving the beverage a deliciously subtle contrast of flavors.

Carroll University endeavors to develop skilled professional educators who integrate complex roles and dispositions in the service of diverse communities of learners. Our program fosters in candidates a commitment to the premise that all children and adolescents can learn, and we further encourage our candidates to commit themselves to supporting that learning. Using developmentally appropriate and educationally effective approaches and guided by state and national standards, our candidates create environments that prepare learners to contribute to a democratic society in an increasingly interdependent and global world.
Constructivism involves helping learners to question, interpret, and analyze information. It includes using information to strengthen learner understanding of concepts and ideas. It encourages the development of higher order thinking skills including creativity, critical thinking, and problem solving. It emphasizes the active role of learners as they build understanding and construct new knowledge from learning experiences.
Cultural Sensitivity
Cultural Sensitivity affirms that knowledge construction is filtered through a learner's culture, a fact that cannot be disregarded by an effective teacher. Culture is broadly defined to include social class, gender, ethnicity, race, religion, family background, age, language, values, experiences, and rituals that affect the prior and ongoing experiences of learners. Cultural sensitivity stresses the importance of understanding how learner differences in social and cultural background influence teaching experiences and practices.
Curricular Integration
Curricular Integration is a way to organize instruction that respects the natural, interdisciplinary learning processes of learners. Integrative teachers know that learning and experience are interrelated, and that learners do not confine their learning to one subject at a time.
Multiculturalism views learning and schooling as preparation for life in a pluralistic society. It explores and celebrates a variety of cultural perspectives. Multicultural curricula and classroom environments reflect life experiences, understandings, and backgrounds from a variety of cultures. It supports the idea that classroom experiences for all learners should include different racial, cultural, disability, socioeconomic, and gender groups.
Critical Reflection
Critical Reflection involves analysis and critical review of the learning process and of the personal experiences of both teachers and learners. Critical reflection informs and supports teaching and learning processes. It also involves having an understanding of how to effect change by identifying problems, framing solutions, and analyzing both their real and potential effects. In both learners and teachers, reflective narratives are used to demonstrate prior knowledge and experience, personal growth, and development of values.

Matt "Axe" Axelson (Ben Foster), left, Danny Dietz (Emile Hirsch) and Marcus Luttrell (Mark Wahlberg) in "Lone Survivor." Greg Peters, Universal Pictures
- Filed Under
Lone Survivor isn't your standard Christmas fare, but the story is nothing short of miraculous.
Brutal, unrelenting and ultimately moving, this true story (*** out of four, rated R, limited opening Dec. 25) of a botched Navy SEAL raid in Afghanistan can get jingoistic and is too fixated on graphic violence. Still, director Peter Berg (Friday Night Lights, Battleship) goes into terrific detail about the 2005 mission that went horribly awry, one ultimately undone by goat herders and American mercy.
Like 2001's Oscar-winning Black Hawk Down, another adaptation from a true military book, ...

Rated 5 out of 5 by fisherfrank425 from Reliable is an understatement I purchased a Contender combo back in 2004 for catfish in Texas, and then used it later for pike and salmon in Colorado. After catching many fish over the past 11 years on it, this combo is the only combo I have not had to replace since purchasing it. For being a 7' MH rod, it is fairly sensitive. The reel is durable and has never locked up, the bail has never come loose, and the drag has held up. This has truly been the best fishing investment I can say I have ever made.

Maintenance of street lights is divided between the Municipality of Anchorage Street Maintenance Section and three electric utility agencies: Chugach Electric, Municipal Light & Power, and Matanuska Electric Association.
If the street lights are controlled by a meter, they are maintained by the Street Maintenance Section (approximately 8,000 lights). If they are fed directly from a utility transformer, they are maintained by one of the three electric utility agencies listed above. Chugach Electric has approximately 4,500, Municipal Light & Power has some 3,500, and Matanuska Electric Association has 30 light poles.
Usually, the electric utility agency responsible for maintenance can be determined by the type of pole the light is mounted on. Metal poles are usually maintained by the Municipality of Anchorage, Street Maintenance Section. Lights mounted on wooden poles are usually maintained by one of the three electric utility agencies mentioned above.

BELLINGHAM, Wash. (AP) The first legal sales of recreational marijuana in Washington state have begun.
Eager customers bought pot at 8 a.m. at Bellingham's Top Shelf Cannabis, one of two stores in the city north of Seattle that started selling marijuana as soon as was allowed under state regulations.
Washington became the second state in the U.S. to allow the sale of recreational pot. Colorado began sales Jan. 1.
Washington issued its first 24 retail licenses Monday, though not all businesses planned to start selling weed on Tuesday.
State law allows the sale of up to an ounce of dried marijuana, 16 ounces of pot-infused solids, 72 ounces of pot-infused liquids or 7 grams of concentrated marijuana, like hashish, to adults over 21.

Is a Jewish farmer allowed to raise animals for non-kosher slaughter? Does it make a difference whether it is a non-kosher animal (e.g. pig), vs. a kosher animal? Does it make a difference whether the farmer expects to sell most animals for kosher slaughter, but sells a few for non-kosher slaughter, vs. when the farmer expects that most or all of the animals will be sold for non-kosher slaughter? Is the situation different for a farmhand than for the one who owns the farm?
One may not do business with food objects as food if they are biblically forbidden to eat, except Chelev (certain forbidden fats) which are specially excluded (Leviticus 7:24) from this prohibition. If one happened to acquire such foods he may sell them, but should do so immediately. (my summary of Shulchan Aruch YD 117)
Accordingly, one should not raise non-kosher animals to sell as food. One could raise kosher animals for non-kosher slaughter provided they are sold before slaughter.

Land of Carnage
this wiki
Disgaea 2: Cursed MemoriesEdit
In Disgaea 2, collecting all 16 Pirate Maps by defeating Pirates in the Item World will open access to the Land of Carnage. While in the Land Of Carnage, enemy levels are boosted by 2000%, and have an additional 200 levels added on (original level* 21+200), alongside their stats being doubled. The Land Of Carnage also lets you get rank 39 and 40 items. Furthermore, while in the Land Of Carnage, Kurtis, Axel and Fubuki are playable (However, only Kurtis is available all the time, to use Fubuki and Axel you must enter the Land of Carnage at certain times in the story). Also, they are not playable outside of the Land Of Carnage, leaving the party if the player returns to Holt Village.
Disgaea 2: Dark Hero DaysEdit
In Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days, Axel's companions from Axel Mode (Pink, Actress, Main Hero B) are also usable here however, you must first unlock Axel.
Disgaea 3: Absence of JusticeEdit
In Disgaea 3, in order to go to the Land Of Carnage, you need to go to the Item World and acquire Illegal Tickets. These can be bought in certain shops or acquired when you beat a Pirate. Once you get the Illegal Tickets, you need to talk with the X-Dimension Rep and complete 25 X-Dimension levels before Access can be granted. In this version of it, there aren't any special characters that can only be used here but there are certain Pirates that can only be fought here namely the Diez Gents Pirates, Baal Pirates and the Prinny Pirates. Rank 35 and above items can be found here.
In addition to the above mentioned level boost, if an enemy's level would go over 9999, then a bonus of 1% is added to their stats for every 20 levels above the cap. Elemental affinities are also randomized.
Disgaea 4: A Promise UnforgottenEdit
In Disgaea 4, in order to go to the Land of Carnage, you need to go to the Item World and acquire Promotionhell Tickets. These tickets can be bought in certain shops called "Scalpers" from random mystery gates. The first half of the tickets can be found in Floors 1-49 and the second half of the tickets can be found in Floors 51-99 (These tickets can be found at any time, you do not need to reach/complete Chapter 6 as previously noted to access the 2nd half of the tickets). There is a neat little trick to get more random mystery gates to appear: if your floor has a 1 on its second digit (1, 11, 21, 31, 41, ,51, 61, 71, 81, 91); that means that the floor will usually have a mystery gate, almost all the time up until about floor 80. You can keep resetting until you get the desired room you want. Also, choosing the Item Growth Route will increase mystery gate appearances. Remember, these tickets are extremely expensive. You can net large sums of cash at power leveling spots such map 9-4 or Mt. Ordeal 4 with Broker specialist.
To unlock Land of Carnage, you need to have cleared 40% of the X Dimension maps and get 6 specific ship parts (P Flonzor X: Body, Head, Legs, Left Arm, Right Arm, Wings). To acquire these ship parts, you need to either capture an enemy and torture them to reveal a random treasure location (higher enemy level or a more difficult stage = higher chances for better loot, in this case ship parts) and defeat Meowkin Pirates inside the Item World. For more information on ship parts, go to Pirate Editor. Once you acquire all the parts, talk to the Professor, located in bottom of screen, then select "Set sail ahoy!" to travel to the Land of Carnage.
|Ship Parts
|P Flonzor X Body
|Defeat Meowkin Pirates inside the item World.Floor 91+ (Higher chance in treasure route).
|P Flonzor X Head
|Capture Professor (Tier 5) (Map: X 10-1) then torture to reveal a treasure location.

|Capture Rifle Demon (Tier 2) (Map: 9-6) then torture to reveal a treasure location.

|P Flonzor X Wings
|Capture Magic Knight (Tier 5) (Map: X 10-1) then torture to reveal a treasure location.
Disgaea D2: A Brighter DarknessEdit
The Land of Carnage does not make an appearance as an unlockable world. Instead, it is an option in the Cheat Shop called LoC Mode which is unlocked after beating the game, and it turns on the Land of Carnage multipliers for all enemies. Rank 35 to 40 items can only be obtained with the Land of Carnage option enabled like previous games. In addition, the player can absorb a very small portion of enemy stats when he/she defeats an enemy in the Land of Carnage. The amount absorbed follows: HP: 0.025%, SP: 0.10%, All other stats: 0.25%. These stats carry over with Reincarnation. The max HP and SP any character can absorb is 99,999,999,999 while the max limit for other stats is 99,999,999.

Sculptures / Street Art, Toronto
11 Reviews
11 Reviews
In Toronto, it used to have this ornately decorated old restored building situated at 299 Queen Street. It was the studios of the ChumCity CityTV showcasing the CityPulse news and other TV programs. This is the place where celebrities come and go. I have to go back there one day to confirm if the TV station have moved somewhere, so I heard.
Let me spend more time and re-discover what has happened to this decor. I have seen this for a couple of times but want to share with you if it is still there. If I don't get back to you in a month or so, please email me. It could be just I did not have a chance to visit the place due to weather issue like today. There is snow storm right now. I will be back, I promise!
I just discovered this as I was walking from an interview, and thought it was worth sharing. The piece is called Community and I believe it has only been there since 2001 but it might have been 1991... something like that anyway.
It was a nice piece, and in the failing light of the evening thought I'd share it with VT folks.
I found it on Bloor St East, on the North Side, between Jarvis and Church Streets.
In Simcoe Park between Simcoe Place and the CBC Broadcast Centre is a moving memorial that is easy to miss. It is a short wall-like structure with plaques running across the top of it. It is a millenium project built by the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board. Each of the plaques describes a worker who died on the job every year between 1901 and 2000.
Although I've categorized this as Off The Beaten Path, this is very close to many of the places you may already be planning to visit during your trip to Toronto, such as the CN Tower, Metro Convention Centre and the Entertainment District.
A few years ago an artist was commissioned to paint a mural on the side of one of the buildings at Redpath Sugar on Queen's Quay. It depicts a beautiful underwater scene with whales. It is a sight for sore eyes.
It is located on Queen's Quay near Jarvis.
While we were in Toronto the Moose on the Loose street art was on the streets. I am sure the local people grew tired of them very fast, but they were very interesting and fun to locate for someone just visiting the city. They were virtually on every street corner of the city.
Pictured here is Jim posing with a leather clad moose. I will make no further comments.
On Nathan Phillips Square you'll come across this man. It's a statue of Winston churchill. I was so surprised to see him standing there - because at first I just didn't see the connection between the UK and Canada. Of course when you give it some more thought, it's not that strange after all.
During my 2007 visit I came across a newspaper article about the highest piece of Toronto art that had just been assembled. The explorer hormons awake in me and I just had to enter the construction site to be the first VT-er to capture this monster called "Rosa Nautica" by Francisco Gazitua.
The work represents a sextant and the masts of a sailing ship, payed by construction company Concord Adex, which is building condo towers in the old railway lands on either side of Spadina Avenue.
Some call it vandalism, I call it art. There are some stunning examples of graffiti located at the Keele subway station.
You can check out more of my graffiti photos in a travelogue.
If you like graffiti and street art, Rush Lane is a good place to start. It runs parallel on Spadina Avenue to Portland Street, located between Queen and Richmond Streets. There are actually more murals and graffiti in the lane north of Queen.
In Rush Lane, you can see the usual tags and whatnot, but you will also find a lot of interesting art work there. The lane also looked a bit dreary at times, mainly because it is a back alley. I felt OK wandering down there in broad daylight, except for this one bit that is connected to a parkette with some interesting characters. Its neighbour, Queen Street West, is a more funky, sort of in the process of being gentrified area, so there's that.
I posted a few pictures from Rush Lane and Bulwer Street. I think some of these are actually registered as murals and are legally allowed to stay on the walls.
Wonderful about TORONTO is the different atmosphere we get. We have Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall... on the flip side when you get dumped by someone you love, you force yourself to enjoy the sceneries that TORONTO offers... You get to meet famous people, you run to them and your life will change ...
If you walk around downtown (not the major streets, but walk between the skyscrapers), there are tonns of quite little corners with interesting statues.

Are you freelancing for money? Are you new to working from home? If so, then you know that you need to stay focused. You also know that you need to keep the money coming in since freelancing puts food on your table. The problem is that staying focused and on top of your income, isn't easy when you first branch off on your own.
Freelancing can get pretty tough. You have your own schedule. You're not confined to a desk, a boss, or any annoying co-workers. You're totally on your own. Nobody sets any deadlines for you.
There will be days where the clients are knocking your door down and the ideas are flowing. Then there will be days where your freelancing business seems like a ghost town and you can't focus or you focus on the wrong things (be honest!).
What are my biggest issues with freelancing?
I have too much energy. This sounds like a good problem to have, but I just have too much energy for one task. I'll start working on one idea or pitch, and then I'll totally switch gears. I'll randomly go to the gym during the day. I find any excuse to switch activities.
I lose focus easily. It sucks, but it's true. My focus comes and goes. I want to do everything at once. I can't just focus on one thing. I lose track of great ideas and drop projects before they're even complete.
What can you do about your freelancing struggles?
You need to get your hands on the right tools to make life easier as a freelancer. Until I started downloading/applying certain tools to my freelancing life, I was all over the map. Now I'm less all over the map.
What are tools that every single freelancer needs to make tons of money? What tools will make your life a million times easier?
A place to keep your money.
An online banking account is a must. I got setup with ING Direct as soon as I started blogging so that I would have a place for my money to go to. You can check out my piece on checking accounts over at my main blog, Studenomics. The long story short is: you want a place to keep your money with no-fees and easy access.
Once you set up your online banking account, you can focus on the next tool.
A way to get paid.
Paypal is a 100% requirement for freelancing. Most online users or people in general, are very comfortable with paying through Paypal. I actually get paid through Paypal 99% of the time. A few companies still send out checks and this forces me to go to the local bank and wait in long line ups.
The obvious knock on Paypal is the fees. They rip you off at times with the fees and it does get annoying. The problem is that there's not much that you can do about this. Well, aside from complain.
With Paypal and online banking account, you're ready to get paid!
Somewhere to keep your files.
Do you lose track of ideas, documents, or files?
Dropbox is excellent for holding on to everything. You can download the app for your laptop, smart phone, and then be connected at all times. I first learned about this program when I lost an essay on a usb stick. I hate excuses and here I was stuck with an excuse because my usb got corrupted and lost the file. It sucked.
Now I use Dropbox to sync my random thoughts, videos, pictures, and files. Trust me, as a freelancer you don't want to lose anything. Every idea lost is money gone down the drain.
Documentation to invoice clients.
Invoice forms are key when it comes to charging clients and actually getting paid. You don't want to have to spend thousands of dollars on a lawyer or on legal fees just to put forms together. You can do it all on your own now.
I reccomend Simple Invoices for this. You create your own invoice and send it when you're done the work.
A way to get attention.
An account with HARO will help you pitch to reporters about all sorts of stories. This is likely the best way to get attention and to be mentioned in press. Speaking from experience, press mentions are huge. When I was in the NY Times, it led to a huge traffic increase. This provides you with instant credibility and leads to more attention.
You can also start your own online business in the form of a blog to get attention and spread your ideas. Blogging isn't for everyone. But if you got some extra time on your hands and want to share your ideas with the world, it has never been easier to get started.
A time management tool.
Why would you want to work when you can just tag yourself in photos on Facebook all day or laugh at funny stuff on social media?
Focus and time management are extremely critical when you first start freelancing. It's nearly impossible to stay focused without a boss. It's far too tempting to go on social media and just waste time all day. You're the boss, right?
I recently started using Rescue Time. This tool is a must. They will help you figure out where you spend most of your time and even block certain sites for you. There's finally a cure for your Facebook addiction!
These are the main tools that you need to be successful with your freelancing. These tools will help you focus, get paid, and remain a freelancer for a very long time!
Did I miss out any freelancing tools?

British author Stephen Lloyd Jones is making waves with his debut novel, The String Diaries.
Our reviewer, Elizabeth Davis, hails Jones for his winning combination of "a refreshing villain and a thrilling narrative laced with the Gothic: a woman being chased by a tyrannical male of supernatural ability in uninhabited places."
Amidst a literary landscape filled to the brim with zombies, vampires and werewolves, Jones offers an incredibly haunting new menace inspired by Hungarian folklore: The hosszú életek, or "long lived" ones, can take on the appearance and mannerisms of any person at any time.
When Hannah Wilde discovers that the women in her family have been plagued by a particularly twisted hosszú életek named Jakab with an intense romantic obsession, she must rely on her ancestor's string-bound diaries for guidance and survival.
When Jakab takes on the appearances of those she loves most, will Hannah be able to make the right decision? And if it comes down to it, will she be able to run?

Sermon Notes of
Rev Dr Ivor J.W.Oakley (Strandtown
Baptist Church 29-01-1978)
Now the apostle Paul moves to his theme, which is to dominate much of the book. Having introduced himself and expressed his desire to preach the Gospel in Rome, he proudly and boldly announces that he is not ashamed of the power whereby God saves men from ruin and the curse of sin.
One of the most damning indictments of human sin in the whole of the Bible.
Men are without excuse (1:20). God has revealed himself in the created world. Although he is invisible, they can see his handiwork. God's eternal power and the Godhead are made manifest. Creation is not the fullest revelation of God, but it shows his power and his mind and intelligence. Give an atheist a good dinner and ask him if he believes there was a cook.
Despite this revelation, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful (1:21). Instead, men were filled with empty and dark thoughts. Despite pretence of wisdom, they were really fools, having turned to idolatry, worshipping a creature rather than the creator. Instead of being God-centred, they had become self-centred. The result was that grown men were so mentally perverted that they bowed before wooden and stone images of men, birds and animals. So much for their wisdom and intelligence.
The source of all sin is wrong ideas about God, wrong ideas about men, duty, and behaviour, all along the line. Therefore the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all godlessness and unrighteousness of men. (1:18).
Man's wrong relationships, and idolatry, are manifest in all sorts of vile and evil ways. These are all too common today, condoned and encouraged by government legislation. Unnatural vices, too distasteful to wax eloquent on here. Paul's own picture is perfectly restrained, because we know that in Paul's day there was unparalleled perversion and unparalleled immorality. Ancient society was riddled with unnatural vices. Fourteen out of fifteen Roman emperors were guilty of such vices. In our state today, such practices are applauded, condoned and legalised. Men and women are utterly unashamed of that which is an abomination to God.
Then a list of 21 things, including the worship of self, deliberate desire to corrupt and injure, greed, degeneracy, grudging, envy, murder, contention, deceit, character destroyers, slanderers, hating God, deliberately rejecting God, braggarts, deliberate desire to find new evil, disobedience to parents, fools, unfaithful to agreements, with only love for children and without respect for human life. After this appalling catalogue comes the final indictment. These people, though aware of judgement, deliberately do these things and take great pleasure in sinning. Encouraged, and aided and abetted by each other. The complete victory of evil over conscience. This is what happens when God is left out of men's lives, when minds are closed to his will and commands. Therefore Paul demonstrates that the whole of humanity is morally bankrupt.
We are disgusted at this terrible accusation of human life. Yet we are all tarred by the same brush. Seeds of all these abominal things are in every heart. If in certain circumstances, certain temptations, born into certain homes, under certain influences, we could have been among the worst. Our hearts themselves are quite unlimited in their terrible possibilities. John Bradford, seeing a murderer carried off to die, said "There, but for the grace of God, go I".
Do we stand outside this chapter? Do we dare to say that our hearts, under no change of circumstances, could develop the forms of evil branded here? As we know ourselves, is it not true that there lies in us indefinitely more than we can know of possible evil? The nearer we get to God, we see and realize what, but for God, we would be.
People's reaction to this idea – they confuse God's wrath with human wrath. God does not act with impatience, haste, bad temper – which is the passion of human wrath. God's wrath is the wrath of one who can never be untrue to himself. God is love. He is also light. He is a consuming fire. It is a fearful thing to fall into his hands. Cannot be watered down to mean impersonal process of cause and effect, whereby if we sin we suffer for it and have to pay for it. God's wrath is as personal and as real as God's love. His holiness responds to ungodliness and unrighteousness. Luther described this as "God's strange work". Christ gave most formidable warnings. Two ways in life, and two ends in death. Heaven is real, and so is hell.
We will never understand the real nature of salvation and understand the extent of our indebtedness to the love of God, unless we see it against the awful background of sin, guilt, wrath, punishment and finally hell.
The passage mainly refers to God's wrath at the end times. Yet God's wrath is already at work. Three times (v24, 26, 28) it says "God gave them up..". When, despite his warnings and pleadings, men insist on going their own way, God gives them up to their sins. He takes the brakes off, and lets them have their own way. They begin to reap in this life the harvest they have sown. It is a dire thought, but inmost conscience, once awake, affirms the righteousness of the thing.
C.S.Lewis wrote "The lost enjoy forever the terrible freedom they have demanded and are therefore self-enslaved. To those who object to hell, what do you want God to do? Wipe out past sins at all costs and give them a fresh start… offering every miraculous help? But he has already done so, on Calvary. To forgive them? They will not be forgiven. To leave them alone? Alas I am afraid that is what he does"
We cannot appreciate this tremendous affirmation unless we keep in mind the background of sin and wrath. Man and his need must be exposed first before the relevance and beauty of the Gospel can be seen. "The Gospel can never be proved except to a bad (awakened) conscience". With conscience sound asleep – we can discuss, condemn, applaud the Gospel, but never act on it. We need to know our sin and feel its weight, experience its condemnation and bondage before Christ becomes meaningful and desirable.
Into this dreadful and appalling situation comes the Gospel of Christ – that Christ died for men's sins and rose again. The source is the power of God himself. Here is no human advice or manmade programme for human improvement. The source is divine power. The purpose is for salvation. It delivers us from sin's curse and bondage. Forgiveness and deliverance are ours.
This Gospel is for everyone, to the Jew first and also to the Greek (1:16). There is worldwide need, and God has made worldwide provision. Salvation is for everyone at every time in every place, for every sin and under every circumstance. Idolaters, those who practice unnatural vices, murderers, crooked people, slanderers, those who disobey parents, those who do not keep their word, those with no mercy or pity, and those who aid and abet others in their sins – The Gospel is for them all.
How does it save? In place of the sinner's awful sin is Christ's perfect righteousness, put to their account. God sees them actually as righteous, perfectly righteous. He sees people in Christ. There takes place a glorious transfer of sin to the Saviour, and of righteousness to the sinner.
How is it received? What is there to pay? How good do we have to be? What achievements are necessary? It is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth (1:16), who rests on the One who made atonement and receives his grace, who has acknowledged their own inability, and Christ's ability. It requires an acknowledgement of one's own helplessness, failure, and weakness, together with an acknowledgement of his fullness, sufficiency, and power to save. It has been described as the opening of dying lips to receive water of life. Therein is the righteous ness of God revealed from faith to faith (1:17). It begins with faith, continues with faith, and ends by faith. Living a life of faith means taking Christ, holding Christ, using Christ, leaning on Christ – by faith.
No wonder Paul could say I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ (1:16). No need to blush about God's power, no need to blush about the divine dynamic rescuing men from sin, hell, transforming characters, the only answer to man's greatest problem in this world and destiny in the next. No need to be ashamed of the power that can take a man on the dunghill and place him as a prince on a throne. To have the Gospel, which is the only secret of true life in relation to past, present and future, is to be filled with courage and boldness.
Paul was using Christ's words Whosoever shall be ashamed of me and my words, of him shall the Son of Man be ashamed (Luke 9:26).
Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord (2 Timothy 1:8).
Nevertheless I am not ashamed for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day (2 Timothy 1:12).

Pope Francis: Wasting food is like stealing from the poor
Vatican City • Pope Francis on Wednesday denounced consumerism and what he called the "culture of waste" of modern economies, especially when it comes to food.
"Throwing away food is like stealing from the table of those who are poor and hungry," he said during his weekly audience in St. Peter's Square.
His words came on the day the United Nations launched an anti-food-waste campaign to mark World Environment Day.
According to data provided by the U.N.'s Food and Agriculture Organization, about 1.3 billion tons of food a third of the world's total food production are lost or wasted every year. In the United States, 30 percent of all food is thrown away each year.
"Consumerism has made us accustomed to wasting food daily and we are unable to see its real value," Francis said, comparing this attitude to the frugality of "our grandparents" who "used to make a point of not throwing away leftover food."
In his speech, the pope also warned that a "culture of waste" and consumerism have dulled the moral sense of humanity to the point that when "some homeless people die of cold on the streets, it is not news. In contrast, a 10-point drop on the stock markets of some cities, is a tragedy."
The Argentine pope has been a vocal advocate for the poor since his election to the papacy in March and has personally practiced austerity at the Vatican, living in a guesthouse rather than in the papal apartments and cutting down on elaborate vestments and liturgies.

Tanqueray and LimeOriginal Song Title:
Because of all the trouble in Long Beach California
It is hard to just be me
I still figure it out
And I stay the same, a little on the wild side all the time
Do you mind if I sing a little song for all the bad guys out there? (yeah)
So I can make a bit of money as I hang out a bit
At 2 o'clock in the morning the party is still going strong
Because my mother is not at home
I have some young ladies in the living room who are ready to have sexual intercourse
They are going to spend the night and leave in the morning
What would you like to do? My goodness
I have a log of condoms here and so do all my friends
So why don't we turn off the lights and close the door
Of course we are not in love with the ladies of the evening
So we will smoke a lot of marijuana
Everyone who is a trouble maker needs to leave, but the ladies of the evening can stay and everyone else can just go home
I am going down the street smoking some very high quality marijuana and drinking Tanqueray and lime
I am relaxed, just thinking about all my money
[verse 2]
Because I have some Tanqueray
Everybody is asking for some but does not want to pay for it
This is how it always goes
You should get your own, I paid for mine
It is all very nice when you hear me singing
I sing songs everyone likes to listen to
You can listen to the words of my song
While I go for a walk and have a little drink
Then I will play some head games with a young lady named Sadie (Sadie?)
Who used to date one of my friends (that is not nice)
I will be very smooth when I tell her very politely
That she should not try to get me sexually excited because I am not going to have sexual intercourse with her
I will just hang out with some of my friends
You nasty girl, I do not need you
[verse 3]
Later on that day
My friend Dr. Dre stopped on by with a big bottle of Tanqueray
He also had a large marijuana cigarette that was so strong it made me cough until I choked
My goodness but it was some very high quality stuff
I had to take a little break and even quit drinking
Tanqueray and marijuana; yes I am very high indeed
That doesn't mean that I cannot still sing though
Dre went to get a few young ladies from Compton
They did what I told them to do but they were not virgins
And as soon as I reach orgasm I am going to leave
Please do not get upset, girl, That is how things are
I do not fall in love with ladies of the evening, it is time for me to leave

With the 39 percent sewer rate hike recently passed by the Hamilton County Water and Wastewater Treatment Authority hitting Signal Mountain Jan. 1, residents and business owners alike must face the increase head on.
"Definitely in this economy when you are in small business, every little increase … is going to be tough. This is such a dramatic increase too," said J & S Shoes owner Jeff Price. "In today's times with the economy the way it is and people struggling, they just keep making these increases like nothing's going on. I don't understand it."
Price, a member of the Mountain Business Association, said his business didn't get slammed with the effects of the recession until 2011 and noted that it feels like sales are trying to pick up again. He added, however, that he doesn't know that anyone can prepare for an almost 40 percent increase in sewer rates.
"It's just another one of those hurdles we will try to overcome," said Price. "Being in retail … you're at the mercy of your community. [The MBA's] big theme is 'Shop local.' We are trying to tell people to keep the money on the mountain."
Two-thirds of residents in the town of Signal Mountain currently have septic tanks instead of a connection to the sewer system, according to Town Manager Honna Rogers. Officials have previously worried aloud about residents not wanting to connect to the sewer — and that was before the rate hike. If the sewer rate keep increasing, residents may wish to avoid connecting once the Signal moratorium is finally lifted. Residents perpetually on a septic system may mean continuously contaminated environments and limits to development.
"We have contaminated streams near the areas that are on septic," said Rogers. "Septic systems need ongoing maintenance and I know with developers it is much preferred to do sewer lines.
WWTA Attorney Chris Clem said the rate increase is a result of WWTA's efforts to avoid a consent decree from the Environmental Protection Agency like the one recently given to the city of Chattanooga. According to Clem, WWTA has so far done a sufficient job of keeping up its sewer repairs — but it's clear the repairs won't be enough.
"We all [surrounding cities such as Nashville, Memphis and Knoxville] have 50- to 60-year-old sewer systems. It's just time for most of these to be replaced," he explained. "The EPA wants to know that sufficient progress has been made with all three of our components [main sewer lines, private service laterals and pump and service stations]."
Clem said the repairs are extremely costly; a $10 million dollar government loan was approved a few months ago to allow WWTA to make repairs on private service laterals. This particular loan is being serviced by the $8 fee already on residents' sewer bills. But repairing the main lines throughout the area as well as upgrading pump stations could cost up to the tens of millions of dollars, according to Clem, contributing to the rise in the general sewer rate fee.
Due to the current leaks in the sewer lines, with a heavy rain local sewer flow grows up to 28 times its usual level, raising expenses to treat such a large amount of water and causing overflow into the Tennessee River, said Clem. The EPA wants the water treatment company to get that ratio down from 28:1 to 6:1 as a maximum overflow rate.
"Nationwide most sewer systems will be raising their rates indefinitely," Clem said. "If the EPA doesn't back off of their current unfunded mandates, all sewer systems will be raising rates every year or two. It would be nice if we could have more time to make these repairs."
Update on Signal's sewer moratorium
From a Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation standpoint, the moratorium is still in place and will remain in place until Signal Mountain is connected to the Moccasin Bend Wastewater Treatment Plant, according to TDEC communications representative Meg Lockhart.
So far, WWTA has taken the following measures toward lifting the moratorium:
-WWTA has obtained the easement for constructing a connector sewer line from the Signal Mountain Wastewater Treatment Plant on Suck Creek Road to a pump station at Baylor School.
-The design for that sewer line has been completed.
-Designs for modifying the existing treatment plant have been completed.
Lockhart noted that WWTA can't start the construction until it has authorization from the city of Chattanooga to connect to the city's collection system. As a consent decree was issued to the city of Chattanooga that stipulates requirements for connecting new services, Signal Mountain can't connect to Moccasin Bend until the decree is finalized and certain requirements are met, which could take up to 37 months. WWTA will then be able to develop the required data to present to the city of Chattanooga for connection approval.

Deep from the soul, blood fills our pens.
The words on paper is our focusing lens.
From our thoughts to paper the verses flow.
the reaction of others is when we will know.
A heart is touched, a memory is lit,
sometimes a laugh because of our wit.
The meanings are different for all who will read.
It's their lot in life is the thing they will see.
So the blood in our pens is not just ours.
It's the sharing of others in our writing hours.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- There's one very obvious thing about the
2011 Tennessee Volunteers: They're extremely young.
Coach Derek Dooley says that's just a description of the team
and not an excuse for failure. Tennessee has been plagued the past few seasons by player attrition from back-to-back coaching transitions, and the Vols have had their fair share of injuries too.
That's left them with just 26 upperclassmen on scholarship, compared to 27 sophomores and 26 freshmen. Still, there's a lot of talent and potential among the Vols' youngest players.
Many current sophomores saw playing time last season, though Dooley wants more consistency from them. He also expects freshmen to contribute again this season.
The Vols were picked to finish fourth in the Southeastern Conference's East Division and open Sept. 3 at home against Montana.

You've gotta give Sony some credit for finally coming clean on the whole
rootkit issue. Well, really, you don't
have to give Sony credit for a darn thing, but Sony wants to give you some stuff if you were unfortunate
enough to purchase one of their XCP coded CDs. First off
they'll ship you a DRM-free CD (just like mama used to make) to replace your current rootkit laden copy, and they'll
pay for postage both ways. But since that'll take a few weeks, they're also offering up an authorization code when you
submit for the replacement disc, allowing MP3 downloads of the album to give you something to listen to in the interim.
No word on the bitrate for these files, but we're not expecting any DRM since there isn't really a way to copy-protect
an MP3 without disabling playback in current players, and we're guessing that they really don't want to go there. For

Really enjoyed reading this topic, with some cracking shots, is the viewing area easy to find and what size lense where you guys using ont he day.
There used to be a high chain linked fence in the viewing which spoilt things a bit. I used to sit out ont the roadside just to the left or right of the runway line. I am not sure if that is allowed but seeing as it is a public road. Just don't park your car in the road. Yuo used to be able to do that but it caused traffic issues.
I don't think you can park at the end of the runway anymore. I used to go all the time in the late 80's and early 90's and park there. It was an excellent place to watch the F-111s and then F-15s.
Last time I drove that way the verge where you could park up off the road was blocked off with huge red and white barriers. Bloody American Killjoys!
The viewing area is just here,
It is signed off the A1065 Brandon Road
The other place where all the spotters usually are is here;
This is a much better place for photography but you may not be able to park here due to other spotters!
A 300mm lens should be fine for taking photos of the Eagles
Has anyone tried taking photos from the other end of the runway recently? There is a public footpath off the Eriswell to Lakenheath road that gets you quite close to the fence from which you can get excellent photos. I haven't been there for 15+ years so don't know if it is still open. Any ideas?
Yes, you can still walk up the footpath, parking is a different issue though as there is only one small lay-by here;
If you do park there you can walk up the path directly opposite and get some good photos.
Forum member DamienB has some good up to date infor on his website about spotting locations at Lakenheath;
There was a website that had some great spotting maps which you could download the pdf, I can't remember what the site is now but when I do I'll post it up
There is another pit in one of the pic's in this link, looks certain to be just a defensive position. It's in the third piccy of the second post in this link.Originally Posted by REF
