I think you'll find it's the latest expansion Wrath of the Lich King, not the Burning Crusade, which is at issue.
actually due to the very late release of WoW in China they are just at Burning Crusade right now
China has basically neutered their society from free speech on the web, they recently banned facebook, twitter and myspace after they saw how people were using online sites to provide information outside of iran during their elections. (which were rigged we all know) china cant regulate what is being said on WoW so they bann it.
They dont want people to know when they are spiking our baby food with melamine, or putting lead on toys. China has become rich off us, but they still are the armpit of the world.

Yet passing this ambitious reform on a party-line vote by questionable tactics may also lead to political disaster. Headed into a midterm election, Obama has managed to alienate many senior citizens, concerned that cuts in their Medicare will be used to finance someone else's entitlement, and many independents, whose general disgust with the political process has been reinforced. The intensity of opposition to health care reform remains higher than the intensity of support. Solid majorities of Americans believe that reform will increase their own costs and reduce the quality of their care. No amount of presidential speechmaking between now and November is likely to change those views -- particularly because the past year of presidential speechmaking actually has been counterproductive.
The immediate political judgment on Obama is likely to be harsh. The historical judgment is, by nature, uncertain. Obama can (correctly) comfort himself that he has altered the health care debate in America forever. When Republicans eventually return to power, they will attempt to modify the package through the introduction of more market-oriented elements. They will not attempt to abolish health care reform. What Republican would want to campaign on a return to the exclusion of insurance coverage because of pre-existing conditions? Obama has created legislative facts on the ground that will shape every future health care debate.
But the value of this achievement will be determined by another historical judgment. If this health care reform had passed in, say, 1994, it might have been just another burden borne by a growing economy, and later refined as the predictable, unintended consequences of the law became evident -- an economic drag, but not a disaster. Yet if the American government is headed toward a general entitlement crisis, Obama's health reform will be seen as historically irresponsible. He is adding a massive new entitlement on top of a structure of entitlements that is already precarious. The costs of this new commitment are projected to grow at about 8 percent a year -- faster than the economy or tax revenues. And this new entitlement is substantially funded by the easiest cuts in current entitlements -- money that now cannot be used to honor existing, unfunded entitlement promises.
In this historical scenario, the irony will be thick. Having seen Wall Street court disaster with highly leveraged risks and many Americans ruined by overextended borrowing, Obama's main response to the economic crisis has been to repeat the excesses of both on a grand scale.
It is possible for a president to be strong -- and badly wrong.

Bring a friend and split an amazing cheeseburger so you have plenty of room for custard.
I usually get a scoop of each of their flavors of the day. They're always good.
The burgers are the best in the state. My favorite frozen custard is the butter pecan.
Always a pleaser
Great custard!
This is the first thing I eat every time I come home to Milwaukee.
The custard here is amazing. Worth the stop up Rt 43 from Milwaukee to Green Bay.
This is the place you MUST bring people visiting from out of town. Frozen custard is a life changing experience.
cheesebugga w/ da works

These burgers are delish. First time having strawberry custard too. Much better than I expected dinner I funny like strawberry flavored things.
Great flavors & great service!
Best flavor is Red Raspberry! Definitely check the flavor forecast for the month to plan for all the days you want to go!
If you're lucky, you'll get Bienenstichkuchen...a phenomenal flavor of the day!!
Originally called The Milky Way in the 60's then purchased by Kopp's, this site was the inspiration for Arnold's on Happy Days.
No place to sit standing room only

I love their veggie burgers. Not
Burger was floppy. It was big. And tasty. But floppy. I prefer to be able to hold my burger w/o it being floppy. Frozen custard was delicious but i got mocha chip and the mocha flavor was too faint.
Heads up, the burgers are much larger than the standard burger you get elsewhere. They are also exceptionally delicious!
It was a beautiful weekend in the park
Best burgers, fries, and custard in Wisconsin
Killer grilled cheese!
Cheese Burger with the Works... Extra Butter. If you're gonna do it, do it right!

Serious Eats: Big, flat butter burgers that everyone in Milwaukee grew up w/@ the quintessential custard stand... "If there were a king of burgers in Mil, Karl Kopp would would be the front runner."
Check the Flavor Forecast to see what custard flavors are coming up!
Kopp's is probably the best thing about living in Wisconsin. Put it on your MKE bucket list!
Blue Moon shake! (or hot fudge which is bittersweet and slightly salty - perfect foil for the sweet vanilla custard)
Kopp's was awesome you can never go wrong except if your lactose intolerant...huh
The cookie that comes with a dish of custard is so delic

Thread: Is this too boring?

Is this too boring?
Hazel Elisabeth Grace.
Is it too boring? I know Elizabeth and Grace are quite filler, but Grace is my grandmother's mn, and it has lots of meaning, and Elisabeth is virtually the only MN I like with Hazel that I don't have issues with (I also like Hazel Isabella, but Isabella is much too close to my top choice for a girl, and I find Hazel Isabella quite tongue-twistery; and I like Hazel Grace, but I'm not sure what I would put after Grace...). I like that it's not so flashy, and it'll be quite timeless of a combo--I'm just worried that it might be a tad boring. Thoughts? Would you be happy to meet a little Hazel Elisabeth Grace?

Allergies Health Center
Sinusitis - Home Treatment
Home treatment may relieve symptoms of pain and pressure associated with short-term (acute) sinusitis. Home treatment may improve drainage of mucus from the sinuses and prevent the need for antibiotics.
- Drink plenty of fluids to help keep your mucus thin.
- Apply moist heat (using a hot, damp towel or gel pack) to your face for 5 to 10 minutes, several times a day.
- Breathe warm, moist air from a steamy shower, a hot bath, or a sink filled with hot water. Avoid extremely cool, dry air. Consider using a humidifier to increase the moisture in the air in your home.
- Use saltwater nasal washes(saline lavage or irrigation) to help keep the nasal passages open and wash out mucus and bacteria. You can purchase saline nose drops or sprays at a pharmacy or make your own saline solution at home. If you make saline at home, use distilled water or water that has been boiled and then cooled. People who have postnasal drip and are around age 8 and older may also find it helpful to gargle often with warm salt water. This can help prevent a sore throat.
- If you need to blow your nose, do it gently. Forceful blowing may force thick mucus back into your sinuses and block them. Keep both nostrils open when blowing your nose.
- Avoid alcohol. It causes swelling of the tissue lining the nose and sinuses.
- Try over-the-counter medicines to relieve pain or stuffy nose. Be safe with medicines. Read and follow all instructions on the label. Do not use the medicine longer than the label says.
If you have chronic sinusitis, you'll probably need to continue the above home treatment measures for a long period of time to keep your sinuses clear.

Anne Hathaway has confirmed she will star in 'Robopocalypse'.
The 'One Day' star says she will appear in the sci-fi thriller after receiving a call from director Steven Spielberg and the brunette beauty insists she will never turn down an offer to be in one of his projects.
She told Empire magazine: ''If 'Robopocalypse' happens I will be in it, and I believe it's quite real, though you never want to hang your hat on anything.
''Whenever I'm taking time off, I always joke to my team that I'm on vacation unless Steven Spielberg calls. And I was on vacation and Spielberg called. So I was like, 'OK, put my money where my mouth is'.''
Drew Goddard wrote the script based on Daniel H. Wilson's sci-fi novel, which had Spielberg so excited he agreed to direct before the book was even published this June.
The film will begin seeing humanity waking up to a robot revolution ran by a malevolent artificial intelligence known as 'Archos'.
Anne will play the lead female role alongside 'Skyfall' actor Ben Whishaw and 'Avengers Assemble' star Chris Hemsworth, who was sought after by Spielberg after making a good impression when they met.
'Robopocalypse', co-financed by DreamWorks and Fox, is scheduled to begin filming early 2013 and is slated for release on April 25, 2014.

Most everyone knows what an elevator speech is: it's a short, pithy, memorable description of a company's services. Lawyers have always built their reputations on their expertise, such that the creation of an elevator pitch should be one of the easiest things for an attorney to do; however, many lawyers still stumble over the basic question: "What do you do?"

January Lawyer of the Month: The Queen of Mean
It's time to announce the winner of January's Lawyer of the Month competition. The first month of the new year brought us new legal controversies of all varieties, from all kinds of places. In a month where some of our competitors included those involved in an alleged Biglaw ménage à trois and a lawyerly leader who allegedly made the most out-of-touch statement imaginable, the voters were swayed by someone else's alleged statements (and perhaps her beauty, as well). Let's take a look at January's Lawyer of the Month. This time, you don't even have to Google her….

Lawyer of the Month: January Reader Poll
The first month of the new year turned out to be a great one for lawyers, but as usual, we don't exactly mean that in the nicest of ways. January brought us new legal controversies of all varieties, from all kinds of places. With terroristic threats allegedly made by an associate at one Biglaw firm, […]

November Lawyer of the Month: Cheaters Never Win (Until Now)
In our November edition of the Lawyer of the Month competition, we brought you three male candidates who just didn't give a damn. We offered our readers an anti-military law professor, but he wasn't able to rock the vote. Next up, we had a family law judge who beat his daughter on camera, but even […]

Lawyer of the Month: November Reader Poll
November is typically a month where people give thanks for all of the good things in their lives. The vast majority of the scandalous lawyers featured in these pages seem to have forgotten about that small fact. They just don't give a damn. Family ties? Meh. The troops? Screw 'em. Honorific ATL titles? Totally lame. […]

A Prominent Partner Gets Out the Vote and Avoids 'Lawyer of the Month' Honors
A mere 11 votes separated the winner and the runner-up in last month's Lawyer of the Month competition. Given the closeness of the vote, maybe Laura Flippin should have focused more on voter turnout, to boost the tallies of her rivals. It seems that Ira Schacter did just that. Check this out….

October Lawyer of the Month: Drunk and Disorderly
It's time to announce the winner of October's Lawyer of the Month competition. Our readers had a motley crew of female lawyers behaving badly to choose from, and one male attorney who probably would have loved to keep company with them all. But which kind of lawyer do our readers like the best? Drunk, naked, […]

Score one for women's equality in the legal profession, even if we're out there embarrassing ourselves. Only one of our candidates is a man, but […]

This Domineering Woman Apparently Can't Take a Professional Spanking
About a month ago, we brought you the story of Alisha Smith, an assistant attorney general from New York who was suspended for allegedly moonlighting as a dominatrix. However, we now have news that our lascivious ligatrix can dish it out, but isn't exactly a fan of taking it. Although whips and chains may excite her, being on the receiving end of a professional spanking just isn't as erotic….

August Lawyer of the Month: Bow Down Before the King
While some of the candidates for August's Lawyer of the Month were bold in their displays of public idiocy, others were bold in their candid assessments of the legal profession. We thought that legal smarts were taking a substantial lead over legal stupidity. But as it turns out, the margin is much closer than we thought. In this polling cycle, just ten votes separated our Lawyer of the Month from our second-place finisher….

Re: Can't view ESRI Grid Filestimothy_hales-esristaff May 17, 2011 5:10 AM (in response to sokorny)Hey Pete,
Are you able to open grid raster from your local drive? Also have you installed the latest service pack for ArcGIS 9.3.1?
ArcGIS (Desktop, Engine, Server) 9.3.1 Service Pack 2
Does anyone else have problems opening these files in ArcMap?
Re: Can't view ESRI Grid Filessokorny May 17, 2011 5:16 PM (in response to sokorny)Hi Timothy,
The grid files are "rrd" and "aux" primary files (with associated "adf" and "xml" files in folders). I downloaded a trial version of Golden Surfer to have a look at the data, and that worked.
I have installed the Service Pack 2 and other recent updates.
I am the only one in our office with ESRI, and am thinking an uninstall and reinstall might be the best bet (at least the least time consuming now).
Re: Can't view ESRI Grid Filessokorny May 17, 2011 11:16 PM (in response to sokorny)Uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck ... :mad:
Re: Can't view ESRI Grid FilesJSwain-esristaff May 18, 2011 4:40 AM (in response to sokorny)So is the raster not able to be seen in the map, but will be in the table of contents? The spatial reference error should not prevent it from being viewed, it indicates that the spatial reference is not recognized. Can you right click on the raster in the table of contents and 'Zoom to Layer?'
If it still will not display then I recommend creating a Support call to have someone take a look at it with you.
Re: Can't view ESRI Grid Filestimothy_hales-esristaff May 18, 2011 5:01 AM (in response to sokorny)You might look into contacting Esri Support. There could be one of a number of things causing this issue. It could be that the data is corrupt, might be something with remnant files from previous version, or it could be a system setting. It is really hard to tell without really digging into it.
Re: Can't view ESRI Grid Filessokorny May 19, 2011 11:55 PM (in response to sokorny)Have talked to support center about the issue. We found out that for some reason the raster file won't read the projection file when on the server. Works find on my local machine (which isn't much use when all the data is on the server). Have had to now pass this onto our IT gurus to look at.
Thanks for help people.

Fort Carson thanks Good Neighbor
April 16, 2010
By Pfc. Andrew Ingram, 4th Inf. Div. Public Affairs Office
FORT CARSON, Colo. - The Fort Carson Community honored a Colorado Springs businessman for his contributions to the Soldiers and Families of the Mountain Post April 18.
Jay Cimino, CEO and president, Phil Long Inc. was honored as the 2009 Fort Carson Good Neighbor during an award luncheon at the Elkhorn Conference Center.
Maj. Gen. David G. Perkins, commanding general, 4th Infantry Division and Fort Carson, said Cimino's friendship with Fort Carson over the years and his dedication and generosity to the Soldiers and Families of the Mountain Post earned him the annual award.
"When we begin the search for the Good Neighbor of the Year we try to find someone that represents the heart of the community," said Perkins. "In Jay Cimino we have found that heart."
"We, as Soldiers, are going to serve, we're going to deploy, we are going to go into harm's way and we are just looking for someone to hold up the other end of the deal," said Perkins. "We are looking for someone who will help take care of our Families while we are taking care of the values of our nation."
Cimino, a former Marine, has been a prominent member of the Pikes Peak community for many than years and is involved in many charities and outreach programs with the Mountain Post and the greater Colorado area.
In his remarks Cimino asked himself what it means to be a good neighbor.
"At home, it means keep your yard neat and clean, wave to your neighbors and generally be a good guy. Mind your own business and help when you can," he answered. "However being a good neighbor to this greatest military on earth is indescribable."
Cimino said he was humbled by the American Soldiers serving their country during a time of war.
He said their dedication and sacrifices made the award too special to verbalize.
In addition to Cimino, the Mountain Post team recognized a number of other philanthropic community members for their contributions to Fort Carson. Each of these men and women were made honorary members of a Fort Carson unit.
"One of the reasons this is the most requested post in the Army is the community here in Colorado," said Perkins. "It is clear that, in the Pikes Peak Region, we are appreciated and wanted."
Cimino is the 32nd recipient of the Fort Carson Good Neighbor award which has been given to a different member of the Pikes Peak community every year since 1978.
"As long as there are people who wish to take away our freedom we will always be your good neighbor," said Cimino.

Ariel Schalit, Associated Press
JERUSALEM — Three Israeli suspects in the killing of a Palestinian teenager who was abducted and burned to death last week confessed to the crime on Monday and were re-enacting the incident for authorities, an official said, as the country's leaders raced to contain a public uproar over the slaying.
The confessions came as violence continued on Israel's volatile front with the Gaza Strip. Palestinian militants bombarded Israel with some 40 rockets and mortars, drawing Israeli airstrikes in retaliation, and at least eight Palestinian militants were killed. As Israel pressed ahead with a mobilization of forces along the Gaza border, the Hamas militant group vowed revenge, saying "the enemy will pay a tremendous price."
Army spokesman Lt. Col. Peter Lerner said Israel was "prepared for a potential deterioration" in Gaza "with potential to use military force as required."
The region has been on edge for weeks since three Israeli teenagers were kidnapped and killed in the West Bank. Last week, hours after the Israeli teens were buried, 16-year-old Mohammed Abu Khdeir was abducted from outside his home in east Jerusalem, and his charred remains were found shortly afterward in a Jerusalem forest. His death triggered days of violent protests in Arab areas of Jerusalem and northern Israel.
The Jewish suspects, all from the Jerusalem area, have not been identified, and remained in custody Monday. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because of the continuing investigation.
Israel's Shin Bet internal security agency has put a gag order on the case, allowing few details, such as the suspects' identities or backgrounds, to be published, and even blocking lawyers' access to the suspects.
"I don't even know what they look like because the (Shin Bet security service) even has an order against me receiving a picture," said Naftali Werzberger, a lawyer for one of the suspects, adding that his client was prohibited from receiving details that he is represented by a lawyer at all.
"The families are in shock," he added. "No one among the suspects has a violent past or tendency and they can't explain how we got to this point where their children were arrested as suspects for acts that are very, very serious."
Palestinians say that Abu Khdeir's death was a revenge killing in response to the abductions and killings of the three Israeli teens.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has condemned Abu Khdeir's death and tried to calm the public. On Monday, he called Abu Khdeir's father, Hussein, to express his condolences.
"I would like to express my outrage and that of the citizens of Israel over the reprehensible murder of your son," a statement quoted Netanyahu as saying.
"We acted immediately to apprehend the murderers. We will bring them to trial and they will be dealt with to the fullest extent of the law. We denounce all brutal behavior, the murder of your son is abhorrent and cannot be countenanced by any human being," he said.
Hussein Abu Khdeir, father of the slain boy, said he was not certain he spoke to Netanyahu.
"Maybe he called, I don't know," he said. "Tons of people called me this morning to apologize for what happened to my son. Some of them were crying. But I don't know if Netanyahu was one of them," he said.
The discovery Sunday that a group of Jewish men, including some minors, were suspected in the grisly death of Abu Khdeir, who was still alive when he was set on fire, set off nationwide anguish in Israel and raised questions about whether the charged atmosphere in the country had contributed to the killing.
"Shame. That is the word," wrote Sima Kadmon, a commentator in the mass daily Yediot Ahronot. "For the murder of Mohammed, there is shame. Immense shame and disgrace over the fact that such a thing happened among us, we who are so certain that it could not happen among us, that only Arabs can be so cruel."

15 hands at 14 months???
I've about given up hope of having a small enough horse to comfortably ride LOL. Oh, well, he's still my sweetie :D
Rafe: 14 month old BelgianxQH now standing at 15 hands, hips are 15.2 :shock:
Yep, that's a full horse sized halter
I was really worried he would toe out badly on the front but he has straightened up as he grew. Still does a bit but nothing compared to when he was a baby.
Anyway, that's my sad story about my poor monsterous baby :lol::lol:.
How sweet!! Such a cutie :]. What are you planning on using him for?
oh my goodness!! Thats a monster of a horse!! My limit is 15h! but then again I am a shorty, so I must draw the line somewhere! Wonder how tall he will end up being!
I am planning on him being my next ranch horse but if he gets too tall to load in the trailer with a saddle on, I may have to adjust my plans LOL.
I string tested him a few months ago and it said he should mature to 17 flat. I guess we'll see how accurate that is :D.
Holy crap! That's tall! If he doesn't work out just bring him on over to Georgia :wink: LOL
wow! What a big guy! I love the tall ones! =D
My friend had a horse that at 2 and half was 17 hands. He was a percheron cross. Its so hard to think of horses like that as just babies when they're that large! haha!
HAHA... You should talk with Indy... Finn is 15.3 at 17 months I believe. He and Fiona both string tested around 19 hands from what I recall!
God he is one hunk of a horse! Watching him grow is pretty fascinating. Makes me want my own baby.
Aww..Rafe!! *heart* I just love him. I can't believe how big he is for being so young. He looks almost adult size! He lost his baby looks so quickly!!!
My BIL's TB filly that was born on our place is about 4 ish months old and I'm guessing she's a good 13 hands already. I'm planning on taking out the tape and measure her tomorrow. She's huge compared to my QH weanlings.
He sure is pretty!:lol:

Say what you will about a populist uprising. The California recall was at least partly a backlash to everything soft and fuzzy in the culture. If only unconsciously, The People were motivated more by testosterone and car talk than by budget stats and politics.
Contrary to conventional punditry, they didn't elect Arnold Schwarzenegger, who has no credible qualifications to solve the state's problems, to send a message to career politicians. They didn't elect a Republican to send a message to Democrats
The People, whom we variously worship or hold in contempt depending on our polling needs, elected the Terminator - the biggest, meanest, toughest, take-no-prisoners son-of-a-cyborg hombre who ever strode the Earth, an Extreme Man who protects women (we're talking movies now) and children, and who, when sufficiently piqued, makes weapons out of household objects and reduces enemies to ash.
And that, as the Bond lady says, is "a real mahn" - the father-king come back (he said he'd be back, didn't he?) to rescue the culture from the tyranny of weak sisters, not to mention the rise of machines.
Not incidentally, they also elected a guy who promised to get rid of the recently tripled car tax even if means increasing the state's $8 billion debt. As Schwarzenegger accurately noted: "The public doesn't care about figures."
The public does care about cars, though you have to have lived in California (as I did in the 1980s) to fully grasp the deeper meaning of automobiles. Everyone knows the freeways are jammed and commutes are torturous, but it's more than that.
Californians love their cars - and invest in very nice ones - because they can't afford houses. If you spend much of your time in transit getting to work (it typically took me one hour to travel 10 miles, twice a day) and collapse in a small rental unit at sundown, a car is more than a ride. It's an expression of self, a second skin, a literal mobile home.
Tax it so people can't afford their portable temples anymore, and you're trespassing on holy ground.
Meanwhile, we've entered a new age of masculinity (see Bush administration), both in reaction to the feminization that has gelded American males and in appreciation of what real men do (see 9-11 heroes). The Terminator is a 3-D specimen made of steel where it counts.
This is not a post-election endorsement, by the way, just an observation that may be biased by my extensive exposure to Schwarzenegger movies, thanks to my son John Connor. Indeed. For the record, he's the fourth John Connor in our family, a lineage begun long before "The Terminator" and introduction of the character by that name.

Lent begins today! Sign up today for a Lent devotional experience.
Note, 1. Those make themselves lean, and continually unquiet, that are haughty and quarrelsome, for they are opposed to those that shall be made fat: He that is of a proud heart, that is conceited of himself and looks with a contempt upon all about him, that cannot bear either competition or contradiction, he stirs up strife, makes mischief, and creates disturbance to himself and every body else. 2. Those make themselves fat, and always easy, that live in a continual dependence upon God and his grace: He who puts his trust in the Lord, who, instead of struggling for himself, commits his cause to God, shall be made fat. He saves the money which others spend upon their pride and contentiousness; he enjoys himself, and has abundant satisfaction in his God; and thus his soul dwells at ease, and he is most likely to have plenty of outward good things. None live so easily, so pleasantly, as those who live by faith.

PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Pitt freshman DeJuan Blair, facing a difficult decision, didn't want to disappoint his family or his teammates. He was needed to serve as a pallbearer for a funeral, yet his team played a game at nearly the same time.
Blair finally made the only choice he felt he could make: Try to do both, and hope his sorrow and disappointment didn't affect his play. And they didn't.
Sam Young had 17 points and 12 rebounds, Mike Cook added 14 points and Blair made a series of game-altering plays once he entered the game, leading slow-starting Pittsburgh to a 78-52 victory over Toledo on Saturday.
The Panthers (No. 11 ESPN/USA Today, No. 14 AP) began taking control when Blair came off the bench to lead an extended run that began late in the first half with a couple of dunks, a blocked shot and several rebounds that started fast breaks.
"I was just coming straight from the funeral today and I was late," said Blair, who attended military rites for great grandfather Eugene Nelson, a Korean War veteran, shortly before gametime. "I couldn't even warm up with the rest of the team. I just tried not to think about it and just play, so I just played for him. It was difficult to play, but the coaches and the team and the fans made me feel comfortable."
Pitt won its fourth in a row by at least a 26-point margin despite falling behind the slumping Rockets by 9-2, 12-4 and 17-10. Toledo couldn't keep up its strong early shooting in which its first 15 points came on 3-pointers, losing its sixth in a row, five on the road.
Tyrone Kent scored 22 points for the Rockets (1-6), who finish a six-game road trip Tuesday at Houston.
"We came out sluggish and they came out ready to play a ranked team and it showed in the first half," Young said. "We weathered the storm and definitely came out in the second half ready to play."
Pitt is 7-0 for the sixth consecutive season, five under coach Jamie Dixon, but its schedule gets tougher with five of its next seven on the road. The Panthers have yet to play a road game.
Blair, a 6-foot-8 inside player from Pittsburgh who was the school's top recruit this season, was not in the starting lineup for the first time because of the funeral, but it hardly mattered.
"DeJuan's maturity showed. He couldn't have handled today any better than he did," Dixon said. "It was good for him to be at the funeral. He was there for his family, he was one of the pallbearers, then he was there for his teammates."
Blair received a loud ovation from the Pitt students when he ran onto the court shortly before tipoff.
"It was good to see everybody get up and clap for me. That made me feel even more confident, so I felt good coming to the game," Blair said. "I got through it."
Blair quickly made a difference, getting five points and five rebounds in 9 minutes of playing time in the first half. Pitt scored seven of the final eight points before the break to take a 34-28 lead.
Blair ended with 11 points, 11 rebounds, three steals, two blocks and two assists in 23 minutes. Despite being Pitt's tallest starter, he leads the team with 16 steals.
"Their best shot was the missed shot," Toledo coach Stan Joplin said, referring to Blair's putbacks and Pitt's 23-9 edge in offensive rebounds.
Young and Blair combined to keep Pitt's run going in the second half as Toledo -- last season's Mid-American Conference regular season champion -- was held without a field goal for the first 6 1/2 minutes of the half, allowing Pitt to seize a 46-32 lead.
Young, who has jumped his scoring average by 11 points per game this season to 18, scored down low and hit a short-range jumper for Pitt's first two baskets of the half. Blair followed with a tip-in and a rim-bending dunk followup of Levance Fields' miss.
That jam brought by far the biggest reaction of the day from the quieter-than-normal student body that sits along one side of the court.
Pitt quickly added a fast-break basket by Cook and another dunk by Young, off Fields' steal, to make it 46-32. Blair then blocked Jonathan Amos' shot as Pitt began to pull away.
The Panthers had an off shooting day, hitting 43.1 percent, but held Toledo to 34.5 percent (19-of-55), including 26.7 percent (8-of-30) in the second half. Pitt also held a 51-28 rebounding edge.

1 Kings 16:8-20New King James Version (NKJV)
Elah Reigns in Israel
8 In the twenty-sixth year of Asa king of Judah, Elah the son of Baasha became king over Israel, and reigned two years in Tirzah. 9 Now his servant Zimri, commander of half his chariots, conspired against him as he was in Tirzah drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, steward of his house in Tirzah. 10 And Zimri went in and struck him and killed him in the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned in his place.
11 Then it came to pass, when he began to reign, as soon as he was seated on his throne, that he killed all the household of Baasha; he did not leave him one male, neither of his relatives nor of his friends. 12 Thus Zimri destroyed all the household of Baasha, according to the word of the Lord, which He spoke against Baasha by Jehu the prophet, 13 for all the sins of Baasha and the sins of Elah his son, by which they had sinned and by which they had made Israel sin, in provoking the Lord God of Israel to anger with their idols.
14 Now the rest of the acts of Elah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Zimri Reigns in Israel
15 In the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, Zimri had reigned in Tirzah seven days. And the people were encamped against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines. 16 Now the people who were encamped heard it said, "Zimri has conspired and also has killed the king." So all Israel made Omri, the commander of the army, king over Israel that day in the camp. 17 Then Omri and all Israel with him went up from Gibbethon, and they besieged Tirzah. 18 And it happened, when Zimri saw that the city was taken, that he went into the citadel of the king's house and burned the king's house down upon himself with fire, and died, 19 because of the sins which he had committed in doing evil in the sight of the Lord, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he had committed to make Israel sin.
20 Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and the treason he committed, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

Your eyepiece is half the telescope, use the best -- Tele Vue" - said Jack Marling, founder of Lumicon Co. "Fast" telescopes (f/4-f/6) of all types -- refractors, reflectors, Schmidt Newtonians, Mak-Newtonians require the finest eyepieces for sharp, full field viewing. Every Tele Vue eyepiece is personally tested at f/4 by our quality control staff to ensure the sharpest full field possible. It is the nature of optics that being the best in fast scopes also always assures the best performance in "slow" scopes. While every Tele Vue eyepiece type will yield the critical center sharpness so necessary for planetary viewing and splitting double stars, observers get the added bonus of a sharp wide field and comfortable eye relief with the different design models. The Tele Vue Plössls are patented to be sharper over a larger field than any competing brands of Plössls or Orthos. Tele Vue 60° Radians, 68° Panoptics, 82° Naglers and 100° Ethos are the eyepieces of choice, along with the 50° Nagler 2mm--4mm and 3mm--6mm zoom, for full field sharpness. The finest performance requires the finest materials such as high index lanthanum and fluorite type glasses, in some cases costing up to 15x more than ordinary glass types. At Tele Vue we ask "how can we make it better", rather than "how can we make it cheaper." We think you'll agree that the views are worth it.

Expanding religion culturally
Published: Friday, November 9, 2001 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, November 8, 2001 at 11:00 p.m.
"Gloria a Dios," the man exclaims as he leans against the wall nodding to the preacher's words. His brown eyes shine from underneath his leathery skin as he concentrates on the sermon with rapt attention.
A few minutes pass, the preacher continues and then pauses. The man shifts his weight and claps his hands. "Gloria a Dios," he says again.
It is Sunday afternoon, and another Spanish service at la Iglesia Vida Nueva has begun. Like many other local churches, First United Pentecostal Church of Houma realized the need for Spanish services and offers an afternoon service in Spanish.
"A lot of them do not know any English and are looking for a place to worship," said Robert Dame, pastor of la Iglesia Vida Nueva. "The Hispanic culture is very different from American culture, and they feel free to worship in a service that they are comfortable with."
According to Census 2000 results, 1.6 percent of Terrebonne Parish's population are people of Hispanic or Latino origin.
"That's a lot of people," Dame said. "They need churches to go to that speak their language."
La Iglesia Vida Nueva began in February of 1999. Church attendance averages 30 people per Sunday. But according to Dame, attendance is not stable because most of the people in his church usually go where the work is, creating a very transient society.
"We'll have a really big crowd one week, and then the next week we'll have less than half of the usual crowd because people move on to a new job or they have to work on Sunday," he said.
Dame helps the members of his congregation with things that a normal pastor would never have to worry about. He assists them with getting car insurance and filling out job applications. Dame teaches English classes on Thursday nights, but it still takes time for the people to learn the language.
"Some things that seem so simple are very difficult when you don't really understand the language," he said.
Dame and his wife help some congregation members find places to live. As winter approaches, Dame locates heaters, extra blankets and coats for some members.
Even with their different backgrounds and cultures, the church unites under the banner of Christianity. "We're all a tight knit little family," he said. "They're all Spanish speaking but not all from the same country. We have a lot of differences in culture and food, but we all pull together."
Dora Mena Delancey, Spanish coordinator for Annunziata parish agrees with Dame that the Spanish community needs to support one another.
"The Spanish services are important because everybody really needs to come together," Delancey said. "They feel lonesome, and they come into churches to get together and join under one faith."
The Spanish service now held at Annunziata began at St. Bernadette in 1986, but has experienced difficulty acquiring a Spanish-speaking priest.
"If we had a Spanish speaking priest, that would really help us to get to the feelings of people," Delancey explained. "If we have a chance to get one, we would be really blessed."
Delancey feels that a Spanish priest would specifically help in the areas of counseling and confession. "You need someone who speaks your language for those kind of things," she added.
One of the biggest problems for the Annunziata Spanish service is informing people about the service held on Saturday nights. The services average approximately 150 people per service, and Delancey said she has found that one of the most effective ways to notify the Spanish-speaking community about the services is through word of mouth.
Annunziata works with the St. Vincent de Paul Society to provide rent money, food and clothes for parishioners of the Spanish service. "We work together and try to meet their needs," Delancey said. "We try to do whatever we can do to help them."
Delancey and others try to help the Spanish people in the community with outings like shopping and going to the hospital. "It takes a big weight off their back when they don't have to do all of the communication in English," she said.
Many Spanish-speaking people in the community have trouble finding jobs, Delancey said.
"There are not a lot of jobs for Spanish speaking people," she said. "Some women have open doors to clean houses. That's it. There's not too much out there to help them."
On Dec. 8, the Spanish congregation will hold a festival in celebration of the Lady of Guadalupe, patroness of the Americas. The celebration will include multi-cultural dancers, food and other things.
"This is a big thing for the Spanish community," Delancey said.
