When a mass shooting occurs, conservative media rush to blame mental health, video games, a lack of armed people present, and even liberal values -- anything but the fact that the shooter was able to get a gun.
But the single proximate factor in all mass shootings, and in all gun violence really, is that it is easy for dangerous people to access high-powered firearms. Lack of access to firearms typically makes it difficult for would-be mass murderers to carry out their plans. For instance, experts say mass stabbings are extremely rare in the United States. To the contrary, 69 percent of all homicides are committed with a gun. Of 37 public mass killings since 2006, 33 involved firearms, while the Boston Marathon bombings, an incident involving a car, and two cases of arson accounted for the other four incidents.
Furthermore, academic research has linked the easy availability of firearms to homicide. According to numerous studies, "where there are more guns, both men and women are at higher risk for homicide, particularly firearm homicide." Compared to other high income nations which typically more strongly regulate the availability of firearms, the United States' gun homicide rate is 19.5 times higher, leading to an overall homicide rate that is 6.9 times higher. Research has also shown, "across developed countries, where guns are more available, there are more homicides. These results often hold even when the United States is excluded."
Following the April 2 shooting at Fort Hood that left three victims dead and 16 others wounded, conservative media have refused to acknowledge the role of easy access to firearms in shootings and have instead claimed mass shootings are caused by video games, mental health problems, the "culture war," and by a deficiency in the number of firearms carried by the general public.
National Rifle Association board member Ted Nugent wrote that opponents of gun safety laws "must learn from Rosa Parks and definitely refuse to give up our guns," citing a Connecticut law that banned assault weapons following the use of an AR-15 in the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre.
Nugent's claim in his regular column for conspiracy website WND that Parks is his "hero" because of her efforts to fight segregation came on the same day that Media Matters made available a copy of a 1990 interview where Nugent defended the apartheid, a system of racial segregation enforced in South Africa, with the claim, "All men are not created equal."
In his March 26 column, Nugent wrote, "If anyone believes that gun confiscation is not a real threat here in America or that it couldn't happen here like it did in the U.K. and Australia, just look to what is happening in Connecticut." Connecticut's new law prohibits the future purchase of assault weapons and requires current owners of assault weapons to register their guns. Despite a federal court ruling that the law is a constitutional means of regulating weapons under the Second Amendment, thousands of gun owners are reportedly refusing to register their weapons.
Nugent, who is also a spokesperson for the Outdoor Channel, went on to compare the supposed plight of gun owners to the experiences of victims of racial discrimination who fought against segregation:
In 1955, my hero, Rosa Parks, refused to give up her seat on a city bus. Good for her. In 2014, gun owners must learn from Rosa Parks and definitely refuse to give up our guns. As Rosa Parks once said, "You must never be fearful about what you are doing when it is right."
In a 1990 interview now available online for the first time, National Rifle Association board member and Outdoor Channel spokesperson Ted Nugent defended apartheid in South Africa, said that he uses racial expletives because he "hang[s] around with a lot of niggers," and described the bizarre efforts he claims to have taken to avoid military service during the Vietnam War.
Snippets from "Ted Nugent Grows Up? Older, Bolder, Cruder, Ruder -- And More Unprintable Than Ever," published in Detroit Free Press Magazine on July 15, 1990, have been floating around on the Internet for years. Media Matters requested a copy of the interview from the Detroit Public Library, which archives the Free Press, to authenticate the statements.
Nugent has recently been the subject of widespread controversy after calling President Obama a "subhuman mongrel" during an appearance at a January gun industry trade show. That comment resurfaced the next month when Republican Texas governor hopeful Greg Abbott invited Nugent to campaign with him. Abbott's decision created a firestorm of controversy around Nugent that only dissipated after he offered a disingenuous apology for his remark. Fallout continues from that controversy, as a Texas music festival recently announced it would pay Nugent not to show up for a planned performance.
The comments made by Nugent to Detroit Free Press Magazine demonstrate how his slur of Obama is par for the course for the NRA representative (all ellipses are DFP's):
From the March 23 edition of MSNBC's Up with Steve Kornacki:

Clinging to persecution fantasies that seem to grow darker each year, conservative voices continue to hype doomsday scenarios in which President Obama is scheming to confiscate firearms, socialize American medicine, silence his critics through brute political force, and wage violent class warfare. Allegedly under siege at every turn as their freedoms are stripped away, conservatives embrace an imagined status as perennial victims.
The result? Wallowing in self-pity and convinced of the dark forces moving against them, conservatives launch attack after attack, insisting they're fighting forces at home akin to Hitler's Nazi storm troops. They complain louder and louder that America has become like Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler when 6 million Jews were murdered during the Holocaust.
Nazi analogies aren't new and conservatives didn't trademark them. But the cries have become far more frequent during Obama's sixth year in office.
Four years ago, Fox News chairman Roger Ailes accused the management of National Public Radio of having "a kind of Nazi attitude" for firing commentator Juan Williams. Former Fox host Glenn Beck frequently immersed himself in offensive Hitler rhetoric during Obama's first years in office, while the then-burgeoning Tea Party movement did the same. And so did Rush Limbaugh, who obsessed over Obama-Nazi comparisons in 2009: "Adolf Hitler, like Barack Obama, also ruled by dictate."
In 2009, the Anti-Defamation League, led by Holocaust survivor Abe Foxman, documented the Tea Party's growing reliance on "Nazi comparisons" as a way to express its anti-Obama rage. Yet today the Nazi claims arrive effortlessly and on a depressingly regular basis as conservatives line up to compare this president, his allies, and this country to one of the worst chapters in civilized history.
The thoughtless rhetoric not only captures how detached Obama's critics have become from reality (not to mention the blanket insensitivity involved), but it also reveals the bizarre view conservatives have of their alleged political strife.
Fox News contributor Dr. Ben Carson recently claimed America is now "very much like Nazi Germany" in that it has a government "using its tools to intimidate the population." Carson defended the insulting comparison by suggesting American conservatives are being targeted and intimidated by the government: "Maybe if I don't say anything, I won't be audited, people won't call me a name."
Audited? Name-calling? Historical note: Those were certainly among the least painful afflictions Jews suffered during the Nazi reign of terror. "I know you're not supposed to say 'Nazi Germany,'" said Carson. "But I don't care about political correctness."

After ducking the controversy over National Rifle Association board member Ted Nugent calling President Obama a "subhuman mongrel," NRA leaders at last week's Conservative Political Action Conference tried to shield the organization from the fallout over those comments.
While some NRA supporters criticized Nugent, three NRA board members sought to downplay his actions and his connection to their organization, suggesting he isn't viewed mainly as an NRA representative or brushing the controversy off as unimportant.
Nugent issued the slur during a January interview, but the comments received new interest last month when Nugent campaigned with Texas gubernatorial candidate Greg Abbott. Following days of negative coverage for both Abbott and Nugent, including condemnations from GOP leaders, Nugent offered a half-hearted apology, though "not necessarily to the president," for his "subhuman mongrel" comment. He then attacked Obama as a lying, law-breaking racist who engages in Nazi tactics.
Former NRA president and current board member David Keene said the "subhuman mongrel" comments do not reflect on the gun-rights organization because "Ted is seen as Ted more than as an NRA board member."
Grover Norquist, another NRA board member, said the comments were "not a good idea," but added they are not bad enough to hurt the NRA's image because Nugent is viewed differently than other NRA leaders.
"He's a rock star and people know he's talking as him and he is talking outrageously," Norquist said following a CPAC "meet and greet" he hosted for fans. "If an establishment Republican said that, you'd go, 'whoa Nellie.' Rock stars and hip hop artists are cut some slack in American society."
Despite their attempts to suggest Nugent's comments don't reflect directly on the NRA, as a musician and conservative commentator, Nugent is to many the public face of the organization. He has had a longstanding relationship with the group, serving on its board of directors since 1995. In the group's 2013 board elections Nugent was second only to Fox News contributor Oliver North for most votes in favor of reelection.
Nugent is also a fixture of the NRA's annual meeting, delivering talks in 2008, 2010, 2011,2012 and 2013.
After the 2012 meeting, Nugent drew the attention of the Secret Service for saying he would be "dead or in jail" if Obama was reelected as president. An NRA memo indicated that he was paid $50,000 by the group for a "spoken presentation" in 2011. Nugent has also recorded the song "I Am The NRA," which includes the lyrics: "If you hate tyrants and dictators and are ready to give freedom a whirl/Celebrate the NRA and the shot heard round the world."
Oliver North denied knowing about the "subhuman mongrel" comments during an interview at CPAC. He accused Media Matters of trying to instigate criticism from him. Questioned at CPAC's radio row, North said, "I'm not necessarily sure how to take your word for what he said since I didn't hear it I am not going to comment about it."
National Rifle Association board member Ted Nugent is fundraising for Republican Colorado gubernatorial candidate Tom Tancredo weeks after Texas gubernatorial hopeful Greg Abbott caused a firestorm of controversy for campaigning with Nugent after the NRA figurehead made a racist comment about President Obama.
According to a March 4 article in The Colorado Independent, Nugent sent a fundraising e-mail on behalf of Tancredo that asked for donations of $25 or more to be entered into a raffle for an AR-15 assault weapon. In a letter addressed to "Real Americans," Nugent warned that "Barack Obama and his radical America-hating leftist goons are perilously close to taking away our guns and nullifying the Second Amendment." According to Nugent, "Tom Tancredo is running for Governor in one of the most anti-gun states in the union, so he urgently needs our help. That's why we're giving away a free AR-15 to a fellow gung-ho supporter." Nugent praised Tancredo for "opposing President Bush's wasteful spending spree, amnesty for illegal immigrants, and of course, insane infringements to our sacred Second Amendment rights."
Nugent also sent a fundraising email for Tancredo in December where he wrote, "[L]ike you, I'm terrified by where Barack Obama and his radical America hating leftist goons are leading this great country."
Nugent's presence on the campaign trial recently caused headaches for a different Republican gubernatorial candidate. In Texas, Greg Abbott received widespread criticism for hosting campaign events with Nugent, who is also a spokesman for the Outdoor Channel, after Nugent recently termed Obama a "subhuman mongrel." Abbott was also widely criticized for campaigning with someone who had made numerous profane and derogatory comments about women, including calling Hillary Clinton a "toxic cunt" and "worthless bitch." Even prominent members of the GOP condemned Nugent, with Arizona Sen. John McCain adding, "That kind of thing is beyond the pale, and I hope that our candidate down there learned a lesson." Nugent eventually offered a disingenuous apology -- "not necessarily to the president" -- for his "subhuman mongrel" comment and Abbott stated publicly he had no plans to hold future events with Nugent.
Nugent's fundraising comes as Tancredo -- known for his hardline stance on immigration -- recently reversed his longtime vow to never campaign in Spanish. Nugent, however, is well known for his hateful and violent rhetoric against immigrants.
Controversy surrounding Republican Texas gubernatorial hopeful Greg Abbott's decision to campaign with National Rifle Association board member and conservative columnist Ted Nugent -- after Nugent called President Obama a "subhuman mongrel" -- demonstrates how far-right media figures can damage the GOP brand.
While the Abbott campaign initially feigned ignorance of Nugent's hateful and alienating rhetoric, the "subhuman mongrel" slur received substantial media attention when it was made public in January.
As the controversy unfolded, Nugent, who is also a spokesman for the Outdoor Channel, was also widely derided for his profane and derogatory descriptions of women, leading some to point out that Abbott's campaign decision was at odds with the GOP's purported plan to provide better outreach to women and minorities.
A look back at the how the story progressed is below.
PolitiFact reports that National Rifle Association board member and Outdoor Channel spokesperson Ted Nugent exaggerated his law enforcement credentials, which included his claim that he is "a cop in Lake County, Michigan" and that he "conduct[s] federal raids with the DEA and ATF and U.S. Marshals and the FBI and Texas Rangers."
In giving Nugent's claims a "pants on fire" designation, PolitiFact said none of the agencies mentioned by Nugent confirmed his participation in raids. The Texas Rangers issued a flat denial, telling PolitiFact, "In regards to your question about the Texas Rangers, that did not occur." The ATF, the federal agency tasked with enforcing gun laws, said "[w]e are not aware of him conducting any raids with us." The U.S. Marshals confirmed that Nugent had shot footage of a ride-along in 2005 when a raid was conducted for his Spirit of the Wild TV show, but that civilian observers of raids "cannot go with us into private residences."
PolitiFact concluded, "He is not a cop in Michigan by any conventional meaning of the word. No agency said that he presently plays any role in any of their raids."
While PolitiFact only rated Nugent's claims about his law enforcement credentials that were made during a recent appearance on CNN's Erin Burnett OutFront, Nugent has also previously claimed that for decades he has received "official" training from elite military units.
Media covering the controversy over Republican Texas gubernatorial hopeful Greg Abbott's decision to campaign with inflammatory National Rifle Association board member Ted Nugent are touting a poll showing Abbott with an 11 point lead as proof that Nugent has not hurt Abbott's campaign. But data collection for the poll ended on February 17, a day before the Nugent-Abbott controversy first received widespread attention.
On February 18, the day Nugent made two campaign appearances with Abbott, the Texas Democratic Party condemned Abbott for campaigning with someone who had recently called President Obama a "subhuman mongrel." A week-long media firestorm ensued that included condemnations of Nugent from prominent GOP figures, a disingenuous apology from Nugent, and a contentious appearance by Nugent on CNN.
On February 24, University of Texas/Texas Tribune released a poll conducted between February 7 and 17 showing Abbott leading likely opponent Democrat Wendy Davis 47 percent to 36 percent. 17 percent of voters were undecided in the poll. Notably, the polling covers a period when Davis was receiving largely negative press coverage because of a right-wing media smear campaign about her biography.
Still, members of the media have erroneously used the polling to offer insights about the impact of the Nugent controversy on the Texas governor's race.
From the February 25 edition of KFTK's The Dana Show:

Just seconds after urging public officials to avoid name-calling, CNN political commentator Ben Ferguson falsely labeled Susan Rice a liar in order to inexplicably shield Ted Nugent from further scrutiny for calling President Obama a "subhuman mongrel."
Ferguson appeared on New Day Tuesday to react to NRA board member Nugent's so-called apology, first offered on Ferguson's radio show last week, and again, mockingly, on CNN Monday. During that CNN appearance, Nugent called Obama a "liar" and suggested that the president is a criminal.
After claiming that Nugent's apology was sufficient, and pleading with public officials to eschew name calling and stick to the facts, Ferguson leveled the false accusation that former UN Ambassador Susan Rice "lied" to the American people about the 2012 terrorist attacks in Benghazi. When CNN host Chris Cuomo asked whether it was appropriate for Texas gubernatorial candidate Greg Abbott to stand behind Nugent despite his unacceptable rhetoric, Ferguson invoked Benghazi and argued that Abbott's loyalty to Nugent was no different than Obama's loyalty to Susan Rice, whom he called a liar.
"You had Susan Rice that came out and lied about four Americans dying and the ambassador of the United States of America on the anniversary of 9-11, and insulted those who died and their families by giving them a fake story about protestors," Ferguson claimed. While Cuomo rejected the analogy, he agreed it was wrong to lie to the American people and that the "situation needed to be investigated."
Ferguson's claim is rooted in the right-wing hoax that the White House dispatched Rice to mislead the American people by claiming that the September 2012 attack was sparked by protests over an anti-Muslim YouTube video that was sweeping the region. But the reality is that Rice's comments were consistent with what the U.S. intelligence community said was their best assessment at the time, a position that has been supported by independent investigations.
A January report from the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence concluded that there was intelligence linking the Benghazi attacks to anger over the anti-Muslim YouTube video, consistent with what Rice said when discussing the attacks days after they occurred on several Sunday morning news shows. After a year of exhaustive investigation, New York Times reporter David Kirkpatrick reported that the protests were fueled in part by reaction to the video. Administration and agency emails that have been in the public record for the past year demonstrated that it was the intelligence community that said their best assessment at the time Rice discussed the attacks indicated that they were in reaction to a YouTube video.
But on the right, "Benghazi" has never been about preventing future tragedies, or learning the truth about what happened that night. The campaign to politicize the tragedy has created a get-out-of-jail-free card. It's the one word conservatives can always use to get out of a jam or change the conversation. Inside the bubble, truth doesn't matter. Because Benghazi.
Facing widespread denouncement for calling President Obama a "subhuman mongrel," Ted Nugent is promising to stop calling people names -- but with his promise still hanging in the air, Nugent labeled Obama a "liar" and suggested that the president is a criminal.
The NRA board member's promise came during an appearance on CNN's Erin Burnett OutFront, where Nugent attempted to mitigate the firestorm surrounding his description of Obama as a "subhuman mongrel" and his subsequent (hollow) apology, which were criticized by politicians of both parties and some in the media. Nugent was originally scheduled to discuss this firestorm with Burnett last week, but, citing an illness, he canceled the appearance -- after comparing CNN to a Nazi propagandist.
On February 24, Burnett began the interview by asking Nugent to confirm that he apologized to the president for his remark. Nugent dodged the question, instead simply saying that he was sorry for "being part of that political discourse" with "street language." The interview went downhill from there.
Nugent claimed that "the president is intentionally disassembling the greatest quality of life in the history of the world" before concluding, "the president's a bad man."
According to Nugent, there was nothing racial about his "subhuman mongrel" attack. Nugent alleged that such an idea is "crap," as there is "not a racist bone in body." (For reference, Nugent previously argued that African-Americans could fix "the black problem" if they just put their "heart and soul into being honest, law-abiding, [and] delivering excellence at every move in your life." He's also written that "I'm beginning to wonder if it would have been best had the South won the Civil War" and that "black communities across America" have a "mindless tendency to violence.")

Pugh, who came in second in the 2011 primary, says she decided to run based on a vision for a better Baltimore and conversations with community members.
Stokes, who finished second to Martin O'Malley in the 1999 primary, says he is running because the city needs honest leadership to take it in a new direction.
They join former Mayor Sheila Dixon and a handful of other candidates who have already announced bids.

FoldIt is the guild hosting this award microbadge. This microbadge is awarded to each team member for the successful completion of at least one point in the soloist or evolver puzzles. Check out the FoldIt guild and Foldit wiki page the for more info.
Foldit is an online puzzle video game about protein folding. The game is part of an experimental research project, and is developed by the University of Washington's Center for Game Science in collaboration with the UW Department of Biochemistry. The objective of the game is to fold the structure of selected proteins to the best of the player's ability, using various tools provided within the game. The highest scoring solutions are analysed by researchers, who determine whether or not there is a native structural configuration (or native state) that can be applied to the relevant proteins, in the "real world". Scientists can then use such solutions to solve "real-world" problems, by targeting and eradicating diseases, and creating biological innovations.

The arched openings in the private garden wall peek through to the side canal; head upstairs to relax on the tiled, rooftop terrace. There's no elevator, but the accommodating staff will happily assist with your luggage (a ground-level room is available, too). All guest rooms are spacious.
Calle del Traghetto, Dorsoduro 2785–2786, Venice, Veneto, 30123, Italy

LEWISTOWN, Mont. (AP) - Chelsea Clinton worked part of the summer as an intern at a Montana cattle ranch, weighing bulls and sorting breeding pairs, before being called home early following the disappearance of John F. Kennedy Jr.
The N-Bar Ranch in central Montana has an intern program for college students interested in agriculture. Chelsea had taken a course in environmental economics at Stanford University.
"She was a delight," said ranch owner Susan Allred. "She just pitched right in and worked with everyone else."
The president's daughter started in June, and plans had been for her to stay six weeks. But she was called back early to Washington by her father on July 17 - the day Kennedy's plane disappeared.
LONDON (AP) - The brain of Iris Murdoch, the British novelist and philosopher who died of Alzheimer's disease in February, has been preserved and will be used for medical research, her husband said Sunday.
John Bayley, a former English Literature professor at Oxford University who has written a book about the deterioration of his wife's brilliant mind, said she always had wanted her body to be used for medical science.
The brain was removed before Murdoch, 79, was cremated. It is preserved in formalin at Addenbrooke Hospital in Cambridge, and will be used for research there.

Arizona Cardinals
Former Cardinals GM Graves: Kolb has ability, coaching staff has to adapt to him
When the Arizona Cardinals acquired Kevin Kolb from the Philadelphia Eagles before the 2011 season, they did so hoping he would be the franchise quarterback the team lacked.
Two years into the player's Arizona career, the results have been rather underwhelming.
Fifteen games (14 starts), completed 255-of-436 pass attempts, thrown for 3,124 yards and 17 touchdowns. Kolb has tossed 11 interceptions and fumbled 10 times.
Both of Kolb's seasons with the team have been cut short due to injury, and while it's fair to question whether or not he will ever play a full season, it doesn't take a genius to know better play from the offensive line would help the passer out.
As former Cardinals GM Rod Graves told CBS, keeping Kolb healthy is not the only thing new coach Bruce Arians can to do in order to get production from the QB.
"I think that Kevin is a guy that has ability, but the coaching staff has got to be willing to adapt to what he's capable of doing," Graves said. "I think he's more of a West Coast-style type of quarterback."
Graves said if Arians can get Kolb "to an area of comfort" the team may have its answer at the position, which begs the question of why the team would trade for a QB who didn't fit their system in the first place.
But that's in the past, and for now Kolb is not only on the roster, but might be the team's best option at the position.
And if Arians wants to win with him, the trick (besides keeping him healthy) may be as simple as creating a system around his players rather than trying to get his players to fit into his system.

As we've told you, 1,618 voters cast their ballots on Monday. Tuesday, 1,666 voters headed to the polls.
County election officials say it's not common to see the second day turnout bigger than the first.
Officials also say Monday's totals were on par with first day numbers in 2008. Presidential election years like that one generally draw more people to the polls.
Early voting runs through October 29. In Brazos County, you can vote at Arena Hall, the Brazos County Administration Building, College Station Utilities' Meeting and Training Facility, Galilee Baptist Church and the Memorial Student Center on the Texas A&M campus.

Re: Jem'Hadar Strength
Also Data has no apparent power source, so he must literally create energy out of nothing, defying the law of physics.
And he's made of metals, and thus should weigh much more than a human of the same volume whose density is comparable to that of water, but does not. But if he really is the same weight as humans he shouldn't have super strength, but he does.
Gem'Hadar aren't that much stronger than strong humans. With Hirogen, it depends. If you go by how strong the writers say they are, Hirogen wins over Gem'Hadar. If you go by how they actually came off in the show, Gem'Hadar wins over Hirogen.
5 Gem'hadar vs Data, it really seems if Data is able to see them cloaked. If not they might be able to disable him with a surprise attack.

SPRING HILL, Tenn. (AP) -- Workers have begun gathering outside the General Motors plant in Spring Hill as the United Auto Workers begin a strike.
The strike began after contract negotiations between the union and automaker passed a Monday morning deadline set by the union.
Workers at the Tennessee plant were calling their colleagues to bring out water and other supplies as they prepared for a day of picketing in the unseasonably hot weather.
About half of the plant's workers were temporarily laid off earlier this year when the plant stopped producing Saturns and began retooling to make other GM products.

Metal Gear Solid series director Hideo Kojima took to Twitter to explain why the digital graphic novel based on the games are included in "Metal Gear Solid: The Legacy Collection."
On his translated tweet, Kojima wrote "Because older games like MGS1 or MGS2 got different control feeling from that of today." He concluded by saying the graphic novels were there for those who may struggle playing the earlier games and could just "watch MGS" instead. While the "Metal Gear Solid: The Legacy Collection" is aimed for longtime fans of the series, it makes sense for Kojima to accommodate for casual players interested in the package. By including the digital comics, Kojima can clue inexperienced gamers in on what they missed without dumbing down the originals and alienating purists.
Published by IDW and illustrated by Australian artist Ashley Wood, the Metal Gear Solid comics adapted the first and second game in the series from 2004 to 2007. Kris Oprisko adapted the first game in comic form with minimal changes, while Alex Game showed Solid Snake's perspective from "Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty" under his run. An interactive comic from the IDW series was made for the PSP. Wood also provided artwork for Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, which can also be seen in "Ashley Wood's Art of Metal Gear Solid."

Miranda Lambert: Blake Shelton Loves to "Decorate the House" for Christmas
For Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton, Christmas really is the most wonderful time of the year.
"It's our light at the end of the tunnel," the 29-year-old "Fastest Girl in Town" singer says in the Dec. 3 issue of Us Weekly (out now). "We can stop rushing around and just be together."
PHOTOS: Stars' family holiday traditions
So when her Voice mentor hubby, 36, asked her to duet on "Home" for his NBC special, Blake Shelton's Not So Family Christmas, Lambert was happy to oblige. "It's Blake's dream to host a holiday show," she explains. "I'm glad to be a part of it. I loved watching him sing with Reba McEntire and Kelly Clarkson. He was so comfortable with the biggest divas on the planet!"
PHOTOS: How Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton fell in love
The holidays have always been important to the "Honey Bee" singer, according to Lambert. Just like his mother, Dorothy Shackleford, Shelton loves "to decorate the house" for Christmas. "Blake likes to pick food out of a magazine for me to make. Last year it was gourmet mac 'n' cheese. It took me three hours!"
PHOTOS: Miranda Lambert's best looks of all time
With 16 successful months of marriage under her belt, Lambert is eager to spend the season with the man she loves most. "We just have fun together," she tells Us. "I thick romance and love stories are great, but at the end of the day, you've got to be friends."
Blake Shelton's Not So Family Christmas airs Monday, Dec. 3, at 10 p.m. on NBC.

[[caption-width-right:252:Noah and Son]]
[[http://holy-bibble.com Holy Bibble]] is a parody of Literature/TheBible and other ancient mythologies. Running through the books in order, it sometimes stops to examine other myths or create new ones of its own with its extensive cast of characters: mortal and immortal alike. Make sure your sense of humor is bigger than your sense of righteous indignation before reading.
As a parody, Bibble encounters tropes at every corner, sometimes even directly examining the origin of a trope, such as with CainAndAbel. Even so, Bibble does not strictly retell ancient scripture. The characters are more fleshed out than would be expected for this type of comic, as is shown by the extensive pages on the cast, places, and other details of the complex narrative. Rather than a simple gag comic, the comic attempts to tell a cohesive story hidden in the cracks of the punchlines.
The comic updates daily on the hosting site, {{ComicFury}}.
!!Provides Examples Of:
* AllMythsAreTrue - This comic meshes many god-figures into angels, demons or mortals, such as [[http://holy-bibble.com/comics/42 Lilith and Ishtar]].
* BestialityIsDepraved - "Are you ''seriously'' [[http://holy-bibble.com/comics/20/ still fucking that sheep?!"]] - Michael to Adam.
* BloodKnight - Zadkiel is one, but almost all warrior angels fit here.
* TheBully - Abel is a [[http://holy-bibble.com/comics/36 bully]] to his brother.
* CainAndAbel - [[http://holy-bibble.com/comics/69/ Literally]].
** In at least two versions of the comic, Cain actually had nothing to do with Abel's death. In a previous version, Satan killed Abel because he mistook Cain's lamenting poem about being bullied by his family for a prayer for his death, and in the current version, Lilith/Ishtar kills him after [[ItMakesSenseInContext he pukes on her.]]
* CelestialBureaucracy - [[http://holy-bibble.com/comics/158 And how]]. The angels in heaven have offices, councils, rules, etc...
* CrossoverCosmology - The comic crosses over into other mythologies.
* ContinuityReboot: At least twice so far.
* TheDevilIsALoser: Inverted. The God of the Old Testament is a senile and useless minor demon Satan created to score sex. (Or, in an older version, to provide a deity for humanity while the true God was [[HaveYouSeenMyGod largely absent from their lives.]])
* GodAndSatanAreBothJerks - Both the angels and demons are eccentric at best and possess little regard for humanity, and while neither Satan nor Elohim are ''evil'', per se, both have similar issues with being arrogant and self-centered.
* GodKartingWithBeelzebub - The angels and demons seem to have this relationship on occasion.
* GoodWingsEvilWings - The angles have white and round wings, the fallen have black and pointed wings. [[http://holy-bibble.com/comics/87 Example]].
* HeroicComedicSociopath - Michael's first and last resort in all situations is [[http://holy-bibble.com/comics/109/ murder]], but ultimately he's still more concerned with God's plan than most other characters.
* HumongousMecha - God builds the giant robot exoskeleton, [[http://holy-bibble.com/comics/81 Metatron.]]
* JerkassGods - Seeing how many of the "gods" are demons [[http://holy-bibble.com/comics/107 in disguise]]...
* MamaBear - [[http://holy-bibble.com/comics/40/ Eve]], when Lilith tries to seduce Cain.
* MistakenIdentity: The Canaanites assume Yahweh is Elohim because Sariel claimed Elohim was "older than time", and they think Yahweh looks "as old as time."
* OrderVersusChaos - Fallen Angels live in a tropical resort, the angels in a gigantic bureaucratic office.
* PlayingWithFire - Uriel loves [[http://holy-bibble.com/comics/135 burning things]]. Even ice.
* PyroManiac - Uriel only smiles when he is about to set something on fire.
* SatanIsGood: Kind of. He's kind of an arrogant, self-absorbed jerk, but he's actually a lot nicer to humans than most of the demonic or angelic cast and generally means well in his own way.
* StuffedIntoALocker - Abel [[http://holy-bibble.com/comics/37 invented the locker]] just to do this.

Science-Related Topics in School Library Media Periodicals: An Analysis of Electronic Citation Content from 1998-2004
Mardis, Marcia A., School Libraries Worldwide
Improving student achievement in science is a major thrust of current educational policy in the United States. Can US school library media specialists use articles in recommended school library media publications to approach science-related topics in collection development, collaboration, professional learning, and curriculum integration and be effective partners in achieving this educational imperative? Many school library media specialists use professional periodicals to stay current with new resources and learn role-enhancing strategies, but science topics represented a small number of the total citations of these publications. This study used citations in two major subscription periodical databases and analyzed them for selected aspects of frequency. Few citations described articles about collaboration with science teachers and curriculum involvement. Although professional reading can improve service, the findings of this study indicate that the small number of science-related citations were to articles that tended not to promote deeper involvement with science education.
Introduction and Literature Review
Engaging in professional reading by both browsing current periodicals and searching databases is a habit of mind employed by many librarians to stay current with trends and innovations in their field and to gather information about challenges they may face. Results of a survey by Weaver (2002) demonstrated that librarians rely heavily on professional reading for new sources of information about improving their practice; they used only conference attendance more frequently to gain new professional insight. Survey respondents listed browsing new periodicals as well as locating citations to published articles as means of making use of the magazines and journals of library and information services. When this broad spectrum of librarians was asked to list their preferred professional publications, three school library media periodicals ranked among the most popular. Powell, Baker, and Mika (2002), in their study of a survey of research-reading habits, reported that librarians looked on professional reading as an important task, but that they were often frustrated by theoretical rather than practical research in their field. Survey participants mentioned their desire to seek articles that contained immediately useful information presented in a straightforward, jargon-free manner.
Similarly, school library media specialists use professional literature to stay abreast of strategies and resources that support their roles in information literacy, school collaboration, leadership, and technology. According to the dominant framework for school library media practice in the United States, Information Power (American Association of School Librarians & Association for Educational Communications and Technology [AASL & AECT], 1998), the school library media specialist as a teacher should promote modes of authentic learning among students and educators so that they may acquire knowledge and skills that will enhance their contributions to school and society. As an instructional partner, the school library media specialist should become fluent in the learning community's curriculum goals, as well as seek connections between information literacy and content-related objectives. As an information specialist, the school library media specialist should be knowledgeable about both the structure and presentation of information and about the learning resources that deliver that information and should assist learners to seek and use information proactively, responsibly, and profitably. And as a program administrator, the school library media specialist should ensure adequate access to materials and services for all stakeholders. School librarians develop capacities for these roles through preservice education, professional development, and in-field reading; unfortunately, these development opportunities are not always available in all the curriculum areas school library media specialists must support. …

Fortune has preserved to us from the pen of a very intelligent woman, who writes under an assumed name, a marvelously skillful and undoubtedly truthful history of a mining community during a brief period, first of cheerful prosperity, and then of decay and disorder.
The hill leading into Rich Bar is five miles long, and as steep as you can imagine. Fancy yourself riding for this distance along the edge of a frightful precipice, where, should your mule make a misstep, you would be dashed hundreds of feet into the awful ravine below. Every one we met tried to discourage us, and said that it would be impossible for me to ride down it. They would take F. aside, much to my amusement, and tell him that he was assuming a great responsibility in allowing me to undertake such a journey. I, however, insisted upon going on. About halfway down we came to a level spot, a few feet in extent, covered with sharp slate-stones. Here the girth of my saddle, which we afterwards found to be fastened only by four tacks, gave way, and I fell over the right side, striking on my left elbow. Strange to say, I was not in the least hurt, and again my heart wept tearful thanks to God, for, had the accident happened at any other part of the hill, I must have been dashed, a piece of shapeless nothingness, into the dim valleys beneath.
F. soon mended the saddle-girth. I mounted my darling little mule, and rode triumphantly into Rich Bar at five o'clock in the evening. The Rich Barians are astonished at my courage in daring to ride down the hill. Many of the miners have told me that they dismounted several times while descending it. I, of course, feel very vain of my exploit, and glorify myself accordingly, being particularly careful, all the time, not to inform my admirers that my courage was the result of the know-nothing, fear-nothing principle; for I was certai
Quite a good series of a life of an educated woman who, along with her doctor-husband, set out to live among gold prospectors in California in 1851. The letters were addressed to her sister Molly and eventually published as a series in a magazine. Really interesting read, I liked it, hence 3/5.
