'Wheeling Island Survival Act' would help W.Va. 'racinos'
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Industry-backed legislation intended to help West Virginia racetrack-casinos hard hit by competition from new casinos in three border states was introduced in the state Senate on Wednesday (SB455).
West Virginia Racing Association President John Cavacini stopped short of saying the bill is necessary for the survival of the four "racinos," but said he considers it "the Wheeling Island Survival Act."
Squeezed by competition from two Pittsburgh-area casinos to the east and by casinos in Columbus and Cleveland to the west, management of Wheeling Island announced this week it is considering eliminating table games at the casino as a cost-cutting measure.
Before the openings of the competing casinos, table games at Wheeling Island were bringing in about $2.5 million a month, Cavacini noted. Now the casino's table games revenue runs about $600,000 to $700,000 each month.
In January, Wheeling Island's table games revenue fell to $585,064, according to state Lottery Commission reports.
Cavacini said the bill would not only preserve a key source of state Lottery revenue for the long term, but also immediately help 100 to 150 Wheeling Island employees keep their jobs.
As drafted, the bill would cut the annual table games licensing fee for each casino from $2.5 million to $1 million and reduce the state tax on casinos' table game receipts from 35 percent to 25 percent.
The bill also would take $6 million annually out of the more than $100 million a year the Lottery pays into purses and breeders' funds for thoroughbred and greyhound breeders and owners, so that the $10 million of funding that goes to the Division of Senior Services for in-home care programs remains intact.
It also would allow tracks to cut live racing days to 150 days a year, and would put restrictions on how horsemen's benevolent associations at the two horse tracks can spend their portions of purse funds.
Sen. Mike Green, D-Raleigh, the lead sponsor of the bill, said he believes there is interest in the Legislature to assure that the casinos continue to provide a major source of state revenue.
"When you look at the competition across the state borders and what's happening to the bottom line," he said, "we're looking at giving them the opportunity to reassess their business plans by reducing the license fees and taxes."
Green said he expects thoroughbred and greyhound owners and breeders to oppose the bill, since they would see cuts to purse and breeders funds, but said the Legislature has to deal with the ongoing reality of declining revenue from the racetrack casinos.
"Ultimately," he said, "the bill is going to be at the forefront of what we'll have to do over the next few years."
State Lottery Director John Musgrave was traveling Wednesday and not available for comment.

A falling tree knocked out power to more than 6,000 customers in Eastern Carolina Sunday.
It happened about 10:45 a.m. at the Silverhill substation in the Pamlico County town of Grantsboro.
Tideland reports the tree damaged two circuits. The power outage affected much of Pamlico County and parts of Craven County.
As of 1:00 p.m., power had been restored to Tideland EMC customers in Pamlico County. About 2,200 customers in the Fairfield Harbour and Broad Creek Road areas of Craven County were still without electricity. Tideland crews are working on the issue. It's hoped all power will be restored within the next hour or hour and a half.

Pillow-Soft Dinner Rolls RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
4.5 17
The dough for these rolls has a nice texture and is simple to shape. The recipe came from an old church cookbook.
- 4-1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
- 2 cups warm milk (110° to 115°)
- 6 tablespoons shortening
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
- 7 to 7-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the milk, shortening, eggs, sugar, salt and 3 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
- Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes (dough will be sticky). Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 24 pieces. Shape each into a roll. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
- Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks. Yield: 2 dozen.

I love these hooks!! The handles are very comfortable! They are my favorite set of hooks to use.
February 26, 2014
Kathleenl G
I bought the entire set of Amour hooks. I am absolutely thrilled with them! They are so comfortable that I adjusted to them immediately. They are the best by far!!! My main reason for buying was I had been working on a large project with an aluminum hook and the branding and size of the hook were right where my thumb rested. My thumb got so sore I thought there had to be a better way. Amour hooks were better than just "better" - they are the BEST! I'm so glad I treated myself to these amazing hooks. I can crochet for hours, day after day with NO PAIN!

One day I got a burr on my aluminum crochet hook and purchased an Amour hook. Wow ... I loved it. It is comfortable, easy to use, just simply amazing. To date, I have purchased a total of 4 hooks in this line. I never thought I would bypass my tried & true Boye hooks, but these are phenomenal. Do your hand a favor and get one to try - that is all it will take!

By the time he was 12, Austin Sigg knew he was addicted to child pornography.
That was the year he wrote in a note to his faith-based therapist: "I have an addiction to porn, and I would like it to stop."
Instead, it worsened. Court testimony and police reports unsealed after his sentencing Tuesday chronicle Sigg's growing obsession with violent child pornography that culminated with the kidnapping, sexual assault and dismemberment of 10-year-old Jessica Ridgeway. He told a Westminster police detective that killing her was "the result of his acting out his sexual fantasy."
He said he had not realized how his problem had escalated.
"It started getting worse and worse and more violent things and, I mean ... as things got more and more violent it was such a slow progression of the step up that I wasn't even, I don't even know if I realized it was getting harder," Sigg told the detective, according to an application for police to search his phone, computer and other possessions for pornography, which he said he viewed through "any kind of visual media."
On Sigg's iPhone, detectives found sexually explicit pictures and videos of children as well as scenes of sexual bondage, rape and dismembered human remains.
Sigg, now 18, said it started off "slow and all normal and everything." But then, "it took a hold of me and it just started growing. ... after I got done seeing my Christian therapist, psychiatrist, whatever you want to call it, after that I — I thought I had a grip for a little while and then it probably lasted not even a month and then I went back to it."
His interest in mortuary science, he said, didn't help.
Sigg was first sent to therapy after his mother found child pornography on his computer in 2008.
Sigg's doctors sent his father a note in 2009 urging him to control his son's access to television and computers. They assured his parents that his addiction was "not a matter Austin alone could manage." But Sigg's defense attorneys argued that his parents ignored those pleas and were more likely to "scream and shame" him than help.
A Jefferson County judge Tuesday sentenced Sigg to life in prison, saying "evil is apparently real."

So last Sunday night we were at my parents' house for dinner and my sister asks, "Have you got the swine flu vaccines yet?" and I answered, "No, but I should probably get on that." Well, before I had time to even think about finding a location to get some of the elusive shots, my 5-year-old came home from school the next day coughing and not looking so hot. Enter the swine flu. Sadly with him we didn't get it diagnosed until it was too late for him to take Tamiflu, but when my 12-year-old daughter started having symptoms on Friday, we promptly put everyone on the drugs. My husband started feeling crumby yesterday, but the other 3 of us are doing okay and I'm praying the meds do their job. We're surviving – nothing apocalyptic – but not the funnest week we've had. So now that I'm going into week two of being a hermit, maybe I'll finally finish getting this room put together. Can you tell I'm making progress? Well, probably not (other that the stuff on the walls) but serious progress has been made. I don't know if it will ever be Better-Homes/Martha-Stewart worthy, but as long as it's organized and functional and inspirational to me and not just black hole of craft junk, I'm good.
Oh no! Two of my guys had it last May, luckily Tamiflu did it's job and the rest of us were fine. As you said, not the most fun week, but lots of fuilds and lounging around do the trick.

Your quilts look fabulous hanging! Makes for a very cheery room.
I hope your family gets to feeling better and no one else gets it.

Hope you get your room together soon. I always say when I clean, it gets worse before it gets better.LOL!
Hope all will go well with you and the flu….as far as the room….I'm likin'those wall hangings!! You don't even notice the clutter- your eye just goes to the quilts! So there….don't worry…It will get done….
Paulette
Ugh O, Ugh O…..the Flu…ugh! So sorry it has hit your home. Keep your hands washed and have them all sneeze in their shirts and then you be careful handling those shirts!!;)

On the room…..wowser…nice size!:) No worries about getting it organized, it's your special place and fixing it up is alllll fun!:)
my seven year old was diagnosed with H1N1 today. And in JC,MO they are only letting you have Tamiflu if you are high risk. So we just have to let it run its course I guess.
I am so sorry, it is going around like crazy. My girls are high risk and so we got vaccinated a few weeks ago, but they need a second dose in two more weeks, and the doctor is now out. So I really hope we don't get it. I wish you good luck… and that everyone's better by Halloween.
Too bad! I hope you all feel better really soon!
So sorry to hear that everyone is sick. I hope everyone has a quick recovery and you can come out of being a hermit soon. I am sure that you are making progress in your room. I know because that is what my rooms look like before it looks better.
Hope everyone is on the mend.
I saw Tamiflu work wonders on my nephew. One day he was down and out, the next day he was back to normal. Crazy. I hope everyone is feeling better.
My oldest daughter went to Disneyland a week ago and came home with the swine flu. Tamilflu really helped her also. From what I hear, you were lucky to get Tamiflu. In our area of St. George, you have to be in the high risk category.
I hope you are all feeling better soon.
Another thumbs up for Tamiflu. Just finished my course of it today, after being sick with who knows what for 3 weeks (I suspect a case of Strep, sinus infection and then the flu). You know you're sick when you're too exhausted to sew or surf sewing/quilting blogs. 🙂 Take care and hope you're all healthy soon!
Sorry to hear about your family being sick.I hope they recover very soon.
My son and I had the Swine flu in June. It was awful hard fo me to get rid of for me.
It sure is a good feeling to get your quilting room orgainized. I just finished doing mine Saturday. At least for a while I will know where everything is.
Hope you all will start to feel better & be over the swine flu
Hugs Janice
Blech! We had it too! All six of us were out for a little over a week. We didn't get Tamiflu so we ran the course. It wasn't horrible, but it sure wasn't fun. I'm still trying to recover the house…
I have 5 tamiflu doses for 5 people. My son got it (before I had the tamiflu) but no one else, so far. Crossing fingers.
I have a messy room like that! I think mine is worse, though. Fewer boxes, more everyday junk. The quilts cheer it up quite a bit!

Every month, thousands of refugees, asylum-seekers and migrants from Somalia and Ethiopia cross the Gulf of Aden or the Red Sea to reach Yemen, fleeing drought, poverty, conflict or persecution. And although this year's numbers are, so far, lower than in 2012 - about 62,200 in the first 10 months compared to 88,533 for the same period last year - the Gulf of Aden remains one of the world's most travelled sea routes for irregular migration (asylum-seekers and migrants). UNHCR and its local partners monitor the coast to provide assistance to the new arrivals and transport them to reception centres. Those who make it to Yemen face many challenges and risks. The government regards Somalis as prima facie refugees and automatically grants them asylum, but other nationals such as the growing number of Ethiopians can face detention. Some of the Somalis make their own way to cities like Aden, but about 50 a day arrive at Kharaz Refugee Camp, which is located in the desert in southern Yemen. Photographer Jacob Zocherman recently visited the Yemen coast where arrivals land, and the camp where many end up.
During two decades of conflict and chaos in Somalia, Mohammed Ousman stayed in Mogadishu and taught art as others fled the country. But life became impossible after Al Shabaab militants killed his brother for continuing to practise art. Four of the man's nine children were also murdered. Mohammed closed his own "Picasso Art School" and married his brother's widow, in accordance with Somali custom. But without a job, the 57-year-old struggled to support two families and eventually this cost him his first family. Mohammed decided to leave, flying to Berbera in Somaliland in late 2011 and then crossing to Aw-Barre refugee camp in Ethiopia, where he joined his second wife and her five children. UNHCR transferred Mohammed and his family to Addis Ababa on protection grounds, and in the belief that he could make a living there from his art. But he's discovering that selling paintings and drawings can be tough - he relies on UNHCR support. The following images of the artist and his family were taken by UNHCR's Kisut Gebre Egziabher.
More than 400 people attended the annual presentation in Geneva in October 1, 2012 of UNHCR's Nansen Refugee Award. This year's inspirational winner from Somalia, Hawa Aden Mohamed, was unable to attend for health reasons, but she sent a video message. In the former refugee's absence, UN High Commissioner for Refugees António Guterres presented the award and Nansen medal to her sister, Shukri Aden Mohamed.
The 63-year-old humanitarian, educator and women's rights advocate, widely known as "Mama" Hawa, was honoured for her extraordinary service - under extremely difficult conditions - on behalf of refugees and the internally displaced, mainly women and girls but also including boys.
Above all she has been recognized for her work - as founder and director of the Galkayo Education Centre for Peace and Development in Somalia's Puntland region - in helping to empower thousands of displaced Somali women and girls, many of whom are victims of rape. The centre provides secondary education as well as life skills training.
The packed event also included an address by Liberian peace activist Leymah Gbowee, co-winner of last year's Nobel Peace Prize, and a video tribute to Mama Hawa as well as performances from UNHCR Honorary Lifetime Goodwill Ambassador and classical singer, Barbara Hendricks, and up and coming Swiss musician Bastian Baker.

The Port of Los Santos, also known as LS Port, is the major Seaport for the City of Los Santos in Grand Theft Auto V . The port can be seen in the background of the Jetski scene in the first trailer for GTA V, and features a large ship with a number of cranes to the side of it. In another scene, a truck is seen leaving a container storage area of the port where a number of large cranes are also stationed. The Port of Los Santos resembles the real life Port of Los Angeles .

Earlier today, GeekWire reported that Guy Kawasaki will join the board of publishing startup, Writer.ly. Kawasaki is a Silicon Valley venture capitalist who is best known for being one of Apple's orginal employees.
As a best-selling author himself, Kawasaki believes Writer.ly is a 'great solution' for the changing publishing market. "Publishing isn't dead. It's just changing. And, as more authors self-publish their books, they will need to find editors, designers, and publicists. Writer.ly is a great solution for this need," he said.
Writer.ly is a graduate of the Seattle Founder Institute and was a finalist at the 12th Founder Showcase. Led by Abby Carter and Kelsye Nelson, the platform provides an online marketplace where writers can find jobs and post work in hopes of getting published. Since their launch in mid 2012, Writer.ly has caught the attention of media and influencers like Kawasaki who are intrigued by their approach to the publishing industry.
A big win for the Writer.ly team, Nelson remarked "We're incredibly pleased and honored that Guy has taken an interest in Writer.ly. For any writer that wants to publish, there is a way. Those who are willing to improve their craft, put effort into promotion and get help where they need it are bound for success. Guy gets it..."We are most definitely on the same page when it comes to the new publishing revolution. Getting him on board was remarkably easy."

2010 Preview: Chicago White Sox
- Wednesday, March 17, 2010 10:29 AM
- Written By: Andrew Simon
2009: 79-83, 3rd in AL Central. Pythagorean record of 80-82.
Key Additions: 3B Mark Teahen, OFs Andruw Jones and Juan Pierre, RP J.J. Putz
Key Losses: OFs Jermaine Dye and Scott Podsednik, DH Jim Thome, 2B Chris Getz, RP Octavio Dotel
2010 Projections: PECOTA – 79-83, 2nd in AL Central. CHONE – 79-83, 3rd. CAIRO – 81.8-80.2, 2nd
Pitching: 2009 – 4.21 FIP (11th in MLB), 4.35 for starters, 3.92 for relievers
2010 – A full season of Jake Peavy will provide a boost. Freddy Garcia, trying to rebuild his career, apparently is in line to be the fifth starter after posting a 3.35 FIP in nine starts late last season.
Hitting: 2009 – .325 wOBA (18th in MLB)
2010 – Starting Juan Pierre (especially in the leadoff spot) means giving away a lot of outs. Alex Rios and Carlos Quentin have a lot to prove. 23-year-old Gordon Beckham looks like a star.
Fielding: 2009 – UZR of -35.6 (27th in MLB)
2010 – Replacing Dye with Pierre will be a huge help, as even though Pierre can't throw at all, at least he can move around out there. Rios will have to man center field, a position he's played much less than right in his career. Beckham, a natural shortstop, is now at second base after playing third all of last year.
Reasons to Watch
1. Ozzie Guillen: Managers are normally pretty boring, but Guillen is the most notable exception. You just never know what the guy might say (or tweet). Of course, he can sometimes step over the line, but in general I think the game is better off for having a few loose cannons around.
2. Quentin and Rios: The Sox are counting on these two to provide some offensive firepower this season after a rough 2009. Rios hit .247/.296/.395 with Toronto and Chicago last season, while Quentin hit .236/.323/.456 while playing only 99 games due to injuries. If they repeat those types of performances, the Sox likely will be on the outside looking in at the playoffs again.
3. J.J. Putz: From year to year, you generally can rely on relief pitchers about as much as you can on Guillen being quiet. Enter Putz, whose FIP has risen three straight seasons, culminating in last year's 4.19 mark (to go with a 5.22 ERA) in 29 appearances in his first season with the Mets. But he figures to play a major role in the Sox pen this year if healthy now that Octavio Dotel is gone.
Paint By Numbers:John Danks' 14.9 percent line drive rate was the lowest of any qualified pitcher last season, helping to explain his .273 BABIP, which was ninth-lowest. Danks' line drive rates the previous two years were 19.4 percent and 21.8 percent. ... Just how much of a drain was Jermaine Dye on Chicago's outfield defense? His -20.0 UZR in right last season was the third-worst mark of any player at any position. UZR can be fickle from year to year, but this was no fluke. It was Dye's fourth straight season with a RF UZR of worse than -19, which is pretty astonishing. ... Something to keep in mind if Juan Pierre is hitting leadoff on a regular basis: The No. 1 goal in baseball is to avoid making outs, and Pierre is an out-making machine. As an every-day leadoff man, he led MLB in outs made in both 2003 and 2006. His 532 outs in '06 with the Cubs is the second-highest mark in the National League in the past 27 years.
Blog Jog: Matt Klaassen of FanGraphs tries to reconcile Alexei Ramirez' very different 2008 and 2009 seasons. ... Bruce Levine of ESPN Chicago discusses Jake Peavy's spring debut. ... Anthony Mazzuca of the Futuresox blogprovides the transcript of a conference call with Assistant GM Rick Hahn. ... Jim Margalus of Sox Machine likes the idea of letting Daniel Hudson pitch as a starter in the Minors to begin the season, rather than as a reliever in the big leagues.

The DASH diet is an approach to healthy eating that's designed to help treat or prevent high blood pressure (hypertension). The DASH diet encourages you to reduce the sodium in your diet and to eat a variety of foods rich in nutrients that help lower blood pressure and offer numerous other health benefits. DASH stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension.
Whether you are already faithful to the DASH diet or want to give it a try for the first time, you can easily make it work for you in your own home. Here's how to get started with the DASH diet.
Sticking to the DASH diet starts with the food you buy. Before you go grocery shopping:
Large displays and bargain prices may catch your eye while you're in the grocery store. To focus on foods that support the DASH diet guidelines:
You're more likely to prepare healthy dishes if you have healthy foods on hand. Try to keep these staples in your home:
Your cookware and kitchen gadgets can make it easier to follow the DASH diet. Helpful items include:
Unhealthy cooking habits can sabotage your other efforts to stick to the DASH diet. Use these tips to help reduce sodium and fat:
If you tend to cook or bake in ways that call for lots of fat and sodium, don't be afraid to modify your recipes. Experiment with spices, substitutions or recipes you wouldn't normally try. You may be pleasantly surprised by what you create — and it could be the start of new family traditions.

While some military members just got back from one deployment, another group prepares to leave for a tour.
On Wednesday, Cherry Point marines with the Marine Aircraft Group 40 put their boots back on American soil after a deployment to Afghanistan.
As Cherry Point marines settled back in, marines and sailors at Camp Lejeune packed up.
Camp Lejeune officials said around noon on Thursday, marines with the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit prepared for their deployment.
Lejeune said those with the 26th would first head to Norfolk, Virginia to board ships with the Kearsarge Amphibious Ready Group.
From Norfolk, an article in the Marine Corps Times said the marines would head toward the Navy's 5th and 6th fleet areas, which include the Middle East, Persian Gulf, and Mediterranean Sea.
No word yet on how long the 26th MEU's deployment will last.

I am a parent of Best Academy students. I have more than 20 years of experience in the financial services industry, and I am the board chair of Harvest Preparatory School. You may be aware that on Saturday, August 25 reporter Steve Brandt of the Star Tribune wrote his fifth in a series of negative articles about Eric Mahmoud and Harvest Preparatory School (Harvest Prep). The only new news in Saturday's article is that a Notice of Deficiency (Notice) was delivered from Harvest Prep's authorizer, Audubon Center of the North Woods (ACNW), to Harvest Prep's Board of Directors on Thursday, August 23, questioning the financial management of the school. I am writing to assure you that the school is well-managed, and to ensure that you have a few additional facts. The first thing you should know is that Harvest Prep went through an extensive and rigorous annual site visit by ACNW on February 12, 2012. Continue Reading →

The Mugshot Longshot is the first mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories given to protagonist Victor Vance by drug kingpins Diego and Armando Mendez from their mansion on Prawn Island, Vice City.
Victor Vance and Lance Vance were recently hit by the Mendez brothers, who attacked their businesses but failed. The Vance brothers tell the Mendez brothers that they didn't have a part in the stolen coke, despite the fact that they did steal it. After a short talk, Armando threatens to kill them, but then tells them that they can work together and the Vance's agree. Armando asks them who stole the cocaine, to which Lance lies and says that it was Jerry Martinez. Armando asks that they prove this. Vic and Lance then leave the mansion and Lance says that Martinez is turning states. Vic then takes a photo of Martinez in a VCPD Cheetah near the police station in Washington Beach. After the photo is taken, Martinez heads for the marina in Ocean Beach, and Vic follows him. Martinez and the DEA agent stop near the boat with the shipment and board it. Vic, after getting closer, takes another photo of Martinez, this time with the drugs. Vic is spotted, causing Martinez and the DEA agent to flee in the boat. With the police in pursuit, Vic goes to Lance's apartment and gets Bryan Forbes' DEA ID number and meets Lance at the Printworks. There, Lance presses the picture and ID number together, making out Martinez as an undercover cop.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Go to the Washington Beach police station
- Take a photo of Martinez and the DEA Agent before the leave to 'prove' Martinez is undercover DEA
- A good photo can be taken from the vantage point. Don't get too close or they will spot you
- Take a close up photo of Martinez
- Photo is good! Now follow their car
- Take a photo of Martinez
- A good photo can be taken from the vantage point. Don't get too close or they will spot you
- Take a close up photo of Martinez
- Photo is good! Now go to Lance's apartment to collect Bryan Forbes' DEA ID
- Forbes' DEA ID has been collected. Go to the Print Works
There is no reward for completing this mission, but Hostile Takeover for Armando Mendez and Diego Mendez is unlocked.
When you take the photo of Martinez in the boat, you will receive a four-star wanted level. Naturally, you will want to get to a Pay 'n' Spray to deal with this before moving on to the next part of the mission. Do not, however, steal the VCPD Cheetah that Martinez and the agent drove to the dock in. Although unmarked, it is considered a police vehicle and as such Pay 'n' Sprays will reject it.

On special occasions like Christmas, which are characterised by merry making and relaxation, it is common for newspaper columnists to comment on light subjects in their endeavour to compliment the season's entertainment menu and make the event as memorable as possible.
A week ago, yours ever was in the process of figuring out a mind teasing subject to comment on, come Christmas day, when Hon. Dr John Nchimbi offered him one on a silver platter, by announcing a special committee to undertake a task which serious newspapers described as " overseeing the process of establishing an official national dress."
Dr Nchimbi needs no much introduction, as he is currently Minister for Information, Youth Development, Culture and Sports.
A ruling party cadre who climbed to the party top leadership positions on the youth wing ladder, the relatively young Minister is said to be guided by the principle that where individual achievements are concerned, only the sky is a limit. It is claimed he is one of the leaders aiming at great things which this nation can ofter. This is surely a side issue.
Our focus today is on the national dress project he has embraced with zeal during the twilight days of 2011, creating an impression that working on this mission seriously is one of his New Year resolutions.
We may call it the Kusaga Committee, for the 8- person team is chaired by Mr Joseph Kusaga of the famous Clouds Entertainment Company, and is already in business, expected to present its report to the Ministry on the 28th February, 2012. Is the national dress likely to be Dr Nchimbi's new year present to the citizens of our land of apparent peace and harmony?
There are a few interesting things worth noting about the new twist on the national dress search story. First, five members of the 8- person team are either journalists or are involved in media related work.
Given that mobilisation of citizens and strategising on this cultural project would require services of people from different professional backgrounds like community workers, cultural consultants, grassroots operators, designers etc, you have those who feel there is an imbalance of some sort in the nomination of committee members, although the nominating authority may cite media power as a justification of its choice.
There is the issue of what exactly the committee is supposed to do, how to do it effectively in two months and come up with a worthwhile report which can lead us anywhere insofar as getting a consensus on national costumes for men and women is concerned. Since we have no idea about the committee's terms of reference, it is not easy to say much about how things will move on from this stage.
We are told the nation earnestly embarked on the process of searching for a national dress since 2004, if a press release issued by the Ministry is anything to go by. This is not true, as the idea can be traced to the early post- independence years, when most African countries were preoccupied with a search for cultural identity, after attaining flag independence.
A handful of countries have succeeded to come up with acceptable national dresses. Most of them, including Tanzania, still continue to chase the wild goose in the name of a national costume - the main reason being that it is not easy for citizens with different ethnic backgrounds to have consensus on such an issue.
Minister Nchimbi's latest move has, in fact, revived a public debate on the subject, with some commentators wondering whether given the cultural, political and economic challenges we have to contend with at the moment, the national dress is a priority.
Some social analysts in this school of thought further contend that the cultural area deserving utmost and urgent attention is one on national ethics, as this is where there is a crisis and a confusion of alarming proportions.
We may as well digest this observation as we happily digest our excessive Christmas special dishes and drinks. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

McALLEN, Texas (AP) - Police in South Texas say account information stolen during the Target security breach is now being divided up and sold off regionally as evidenced by the arrest of two Mexican citizens in connection to 96 fraudulent credit cards.
McAllen Police Chief Victor Rodriguez said Monday that 27-year-old Mary Carmen Garcia and 28-year-old Daniel Guardiola Dominguez, both of Monterrey, Mexico, used cards containing the account information of South Texas residents. The chief says they were used to buy tens of thousands of dollars' worth of merchandise at national retailers in the area.
The two were arrested on Sunday morning trying to re-enter the U.S. at the border.
The Target security breach is believed to have involved 40 million credit and debit card accounts and the personal information of 70 million customers.
Target says that personal information - including phone numbers and email and mailing addresses - was stolen from as many as 70 million customers in its pre-Christmas data breach. That was substantially more customers than Target had previously said were affected.
The chain also cut its fourth-quarter adjusted earnings forecast and outlook for a key sales barometer.
Target had announced in December that about 40 million credit and debit cards may have been affected by a data breach that happened between Nov. 27 and Dec. 15 - just as the holiday shopping season was getting into gear.
The retailer said Friday that the personal information stolen is not a new breach, but was discovered during its ongoing investigation.
Target Corp.'s stock fell in Friday premarket trading.

What a HARD Thanksgiving I had!!
Alot of you know my Mom passed away in August. I am a nurse in the hospital she died in. It is so hard to walk in there every shift I work, brings back so many bad memories. I had to work on her first Bday without us, and had to work Thanksgiving. I got in the elevator, there was an employee in there and asked me what floor I was going to, I told her. As I was looking in my bag for my locker key, another employee got in the elevator and asked for the 4th floor. That was the floor my Mom died on, I knew that voice, I looked up and it was the nurse that was taking care of my Mom the night she started her journey to Heaven. I felt like someone punched me in the stomach, I was about to start crying, but kept it together some how.

I am sorry things are so difficult for you. Losing your mom is hard enough in itself. But to have to continue to walk in and out of the hospital where she spent her last hours has to be devastating. Nursing has its own demands and stressors, as you know. It is really hard to put aside our personal feelings and issues to care for those who need us.
I hope and pray you will be able to somehow "do your work" in memory of your mom. Hopefully you can help give someone some good memories during their stay. Knowing as you do how important compassion is.
If things get worse for you I encourage you to consider-grief counseling. You KNOW you would recommend it for your patient/families. Nurses aren't super heroes. We hurt and cry and grieve like everyone else. Well, no that isn't true.... Sometimes we hold ourselves above things like that and do not allow for ourselves the very thing we need.
I will be saying prayers and sending you all my best wishes for comfort and peace.

Thanks, Im a pediatric nurse and since my Mom's death, I have been thinking of becoming a Hospice nurse. She fought Cancer for almost 10 years for us! Just wish she would have been on the oncology floor instead of the floor that she was transferred to from the ICU. Her nurse on the floor asked us why she had such a huge abdominal dressing. She had NO IDEA that my Mom had emergency surgery because of her colon cancer and thats why she was so sick/septic/dying!!
I am really sorry that you are going through it.
Could you speak and somebody at the hosptial to see if you could be relocated temporaly? Just to be able to get some "fresh air" for a while.
A big big hug and all my wishes that you can find peace

I am so very sorry-I can feel your pain.
I lost my Mother on November 30, 2005 and Dad on May 10, 2006.
What I've found is that Holidays are never the same, BUT I know Mom and Dad would want me to be happy.
Couldn't help but think that maybe your Mom was letting you know she is o.k. by her nurse being in the elevator!

I was an oncology nurse for 12 years, now retired. It was one of the most rewarding times of my life. Palliative and hospice care has my heart. Personal experience brings a new level of understanding and compassion to our patients and their families. It is a HARD time as you know first hand. If you seriously want to change your direction wait for at least a year. Consider grief counseling. Any patient, would be fortunate to have you as their nurse and advocate.
I continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Holidays are the worst time. I had to leave a store one day because of the music they were playing. My sister broke down over a display of M&M"s - my father's favorite candy.
You're not alone. Even though it seems like you are, there are a lot of us walking this road, and the best thing you're doing is reaching out to us.
I got a book after my mom died called The Angel Catcher, which is basically a journal with pages for memories, pictures, etc. It helped me a lot.
Having worked in Oncology, I agree with everything Dale said. My nephew is in charge of Hospice in a large VA Hospital. It takes a very special person to do that.
You are still working through your grief and anger over losing your mother. There is no time table for coping with your grief - it is different with each person. Three months is very recent and now you have to deal with the Holidays.
My father was dianosed with renal cell cancer and given two weeks to live. It was in every bone and had engulfed both kidneys by the time he finally went to the doctor. fortunately he had a third kidney that kept him alive for 9 months. He didn't qualify for chemo trials. He had a great 7 months of doing things he wanted to do, even traveling. By the time he died, it was a blessing because he was in a coma.
Until you can walk in the hospital and be glad she received wonderful care there or see the nurse who took care of her and your thought is she helped your mom so much, you aren't ready for Hospice. You can't help others until you are through the grieving process.

The system is outfitted with a 12 volt motor on each meter. Using the 20/20 SeedSense, the vDrive provides single row control without clutches, hydraulic motors and chains or cables. Another advantage of electric control is the fast response, particularly when planting curves, and its precise control with ground speed changes or with variable rate prescriptions.

The bald eagle, our national bird, was removed from the imperiled species list on the heels of its remarkable recovery. Here you can find information about the bald eagle management plan , permitting requirements, eagle biology, and bald eagle nest locations.
Public Notice:
The only financial assurance the FWC is accepting at this time for conservation measure #2 listed in the FWC Bald Eagle Management Plan on pg. 34 is a surety bond. The FWC will not be accepting any other type of bond or any letters of credit until further notice.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced a program to issue two types of permits that will be used to improve the management of bald and golden eagles under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. The two permits are designed to protect public safety and manage activities or projects that may disturb or otherwise incidentally "take" bald or golden eagles or their nests, while maintaining stable or increasing populations. Permits will only be granted when they are compatible with this goal.
For more information please visit the FWC Eagle Permitting page.
Locate an Eagle Nest: Try our new bald eagle nest locator. New features include an interactive map, address search, export functions, and printable maps. Here is the map showing what counties are being surveyed during the 2015-2016 breeding season.
Bald Eagle Management Fund Donation UpdateAccording to the FWC Bald Eagle Management Plan Guidelines the monetary contribution to the Bald Eagle Management Fund will be updated annually based on the All-Urban Consumer Price Index (CPI-U). The donation fee decreased from $35,455 to $35,000 on March 1, 2010. This is based on a decrease in the CPI-U. Please visit http://www.bls.gov/CPI/ for more information on the CPI-U.

Petition Points
If you've completed continuing education that you think should qualify for STAR points, we want to know about it. You can petition for credit on courses not previously approved by Mad Dogg Athletics, as long as the topics directly relate to your role as a certified Spinning® instructor (e.g., exercise science, biomechanics, heart rate training), and the course was taught by a qualified presenter. For each two-year certification period, you may receive no more than 6 STAR points through petition including CPR/AED and First Aid.
You can earn 0.5 STAR points for CPR/AED and 0.5 STAR points for First Aid; however, the certifications must be current and earned within that two-year certification period. Best of all, these points do not count towards your petition maximum and you don't have to pay the petition fee to earn these points. So as long as you remain current with your emergency certifications you can easily earn 1 STAR point every renewal period. Proof of certification is required.
You can petition courses online or download a STAR Point Petition Form and follow the instructions for submission. We will notify you within 2-3 weeks whether or not your petition has been approved for STAR points.

Will Strong Encryption Protect Privacy and Make Government Obsolete?
Recorded: Tuesday, April 24, 2001
Many people have wondered how technological progress will affect political, economic, and civil freedoms. With the rise of encryption software, the National Security Agency's Echelon worldwide surveillance system, and the FBI's Carnivore e-mail snooping program, this subject is no longer the exclusive domain of speculative thinkers or futurists, it is the subject of intense public-policy debate. Will privacy-enhancing technology improve faster than privacy-threatening technology? Should the government mandate privacy standards? Should it enforce contracts in cyberspace, or would private law do a better job? Economist, physicist, and legal scholar David Friedman discussed these and related questions about technological change and the case for and against government involvement.

Severus Snape's portrait
Revision as of 23:34, July 21, 2012 by ProfessorTofty (Talk | contribs)

Severus Snape's portrait is a painting that hangs in the Headmaster's office of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, this portrait depicts Professor Severus Snape.
As Headmaster of the school during the 1997–1998 school year, Severus Snape had the right to have his portrait hung posthumously in the Headmaster's office; however, since he appeared to have abandoned his post, it didn't automatically appear there prior to his death. Harry Potter revealed Snape's true intentions and motives shortly before Voldemort's death, and later ensured that the portrait found its rightful place among the school's previous Headmasters.[1].
Behind the scenes
- Snape's portrait was shown in a Saturday Night Live skit, though he was not played by Alan Rickman.[citation needed]
- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (First appearance)

I love his bright colors! It reminds me of Chicago's own "Suit Guy," Vincent Falk. He's a man who owns hundreds of colorful suits, shirts and ties and shows them off on one of the bridges over the Chicago river. He also has a wonderfully corny sense of humor; I've chatted with him before. A documentary about his life was released last year: "Vincent: a life in color"

DENVER - The Avalanche needed a bounce to go their way.
"I don't know if he [Blues goaltender Jaroslav Halak] was screened or if it was tipped but it just feels real good," David Jones said in a gasp of relief.
They got just that against St. Louis.
The forward scored with just seventeen seconds remaining in overtime to break the tie and give the Avalanche a 1-0 victory. It was an all too frequent sight, the circumstances but not necessarily the outcome.
The Avalanche have been at odds with themselves early this season. When they fail to put the put in the net, this the most prevalent scenario, goalie Semyon Varlamov holds strong as well. Colorado ranked tied-for 21st in goals per game while giving up the fourth most shots per contest. But on the occasion when their offense was rolling the defense became depressed.
Wednesday night, Varlamov held resolute for sixty-four minutes. He turned away 33 shots in the process, and gave the Avalanche the chance they needed at the end.
"That was big thing for me for sure, to get a shutout today," Varlamov said following his second shutout of the season. "[The games] against Edmonton and the last game [versus Nashville], were rough games for me. I gave up ten goals in two games so I was not happy. Then today, good things happened."
Granted, there have been goals which happened in bunches the last few games, the second year Avalanche goalie's overall play is still stifling. He faced 55 shots against Edmonton (a 6-4 loss) and just 38 shots versus Nashville (a 6-5 win).
It was another, all too common, busy night in the crease for Varlamov, but this time with the better ending.
"He's been unbelievable for us. I'm just happy we could pull it out for him. We've come up short a few times and the score hasn't dictated how well he's been playing," asserted Jones. "He's phenomenal. He just makes huge saves for us."

Colorado Springs Fire Department confirms that a fire Thursday at Red Rock Canyon Open Space was started by a model rocket. Fire investigators ruled the fire accidental.
While working to contain the fire, crews found a model rocket, confirming the reports that 911 dispatchers had received.
Drivers on the interstate Thursday afternoon saw signs advising them of a grass fire in the popular open space, stirring memories of the last time a fire started in another highly frequented recreational area--Waldo Canyon.
Fortunately, the fire never expanded beyond five acres, and was contained within a couple of hours. Still, it was a reminder about how vulnerable the drought-stricken region remains to fire, even after the blast of winter weather over the past few weeks.
Residents say the incident isn't going to scare them off of their favorite trails.
"I'm not going to stop hiking because of it," Kathy Price told 11 News. "People have to be more responsible."
Red Rocks Canyon is located off Highway 24 near Manitou Springs.
Model rocket launches are permitted under the 2009 International Fire Code (IFC), and Colorado Springs is currently not under any city fire restrictions or burn bans that would restrict launches. However, with conditions as dry as they are, CSFD urges residents to be extra vigilant with outdoor activities.
When fire restrictions or burn bans are in effect, a special permit is required for groups, clubs or organizations wanting to launch model rockets.

WOODBRIDGE, Va. (WUSA9) -- Prince William County police say they have arrested a man for shooting a 55-year-old man who was walking his dog in Woodbridge on Wednesday night.
Police say 25-year-old Aric Alexander Smith of Woodbridge is charged with first degree murder, armed robbery, and using a firearm in commission of a felony in the death of 55-year-old Gregory Lee Holley Sr.
According to police, officers responded to the 3700 block of Wertz Drive in Woodbridge on Wednesday at 9:40 p.m. for a call of shots fired. Police say witnesses reported seeing a man fleeing the area on foot and they gave officers a description. Police say off-duty Prince William County Police Lieutenant Carlos Robles was in the area and found a man fitting the description on Cardinal Drive. The lieutenant detained the man, later identified as Smith, after a brief struggle, according to officials.
Police say Holley was walking his dog when he was approached by another man. The stranger then shot Holley and took his property before fleeing. Holley was pronounced dead at the scene, according to police.
Police report that the gun used in the shooting was reported stolen on February 15th from a vehicle in Montclair.
Police say Holley and Smith don't appear to have known each other.
Smith is being held without bond, say police, and he is due in court on June 19th.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) - Few, if any, Floridians want to see Republican Mitt Romney win the state - and win big - than U.S. Rep. Connie Mack.
If President Barack Obama carries the state again, or even if Romney wins by a slim margin, it's more than likely that Mack will be out of a job.
It's why Mack, who is challenging Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson, consistently ties his campaign to Romney's, both in his stump speech and in person when Romney or running mate Rep. Paul Ryan come to Florida.
Mack planned to be with Ryan in Panama City on Saturday, tearing up his schedule to make sure he would with the vice presidential candidate in front of a large crowd in a crucial area of the state.

A Greenville pastor says she told members of her ministry to not only give to each other this Christmas, but to give to those in need.
Mary Mahone of the Truth and Life Deliverance Ministry in Greenville says Jesus told her to have a dinner for the homeless on Christmas day, and that's exactly what she did. A meal of turkey, ham, green beans, and corn was available for free Tuesday. Pastor Mahone says it was a lot of work, but it was good work in the spirit of Christmas.
"My members, I, and a few more people that donated- we wanted to create a homeless home and a loving atmosphere for them today, and that's what we did," said Mahone.
Along with the food, the ministry bought gloves, hats, and blankets for the homeless.
