The relationship between Greg Sanders and Morgan Brody is one of the newest relationships in the show. This relationship was nicknamed Morganders as well as Grody by fans.
At 73 Seconds, Greg was introduced to Morgan by Nick and Greg was slightly flirty towards Morgan but their conversation lead to an awkward pause. After meeting Morgan, Greg was suprised that Morgan is Ecklie's daughter and Nick also warned Greg not to do what he was thinking because Morgan is Ecklie's daughter.Greg also mentioned to Sara that he just met Morgan.
At Tell-Tale Hearts, It was Morgan's first case and she is still adjusting to life in Vegas. Her first task was to check for evidence of the surrounding areas as Greg was processing the inside of the crime scene. Greg also gives her the nickname Hollywood.
In Bittersweet was Morgan's and Greg's first case together alone and it was revealed that Morgan is not interested in dating a co-worker as Greg trying to look his best to impress Morgan. Greg was slightly jealous when Morgan was interested in handsome male model (played by Justin James Hughes) who is advertising chocolate.
In CSI Down Greg and Morgan were continuously flirty and he was extremely worried when a medavac helicopter which was Morgan onboard was hijacked. Greg seemed deeply concerned for Morgan's safety, more so than the rest of the team. Greg expressed his anger on the hijacker's daughter when she set her father up to trap and sent a gang after them. Even yelling "If they hurt her I swear to you!" while being held back and taken out of the room, but not before he kicks over a nearby chair.
In Crime After Crime When Greg got back from examining everyone at a party that the Host was murdered, D.B. tells him to go help Morgan on a case and meet her at a motel. He walks away with a smug smile on his face while D.B. calls back "It's a crime scene, not a date! Ya wacky kid." during which he still has a smile on his face.
In Stealing home D.B. Russell told Morgan to find the murder weapon and she can take "her boyfriend Greg" with her and leaving Morgan with a confused look on her face.
In CSI Unplugged They run into each other. When she explains that she is stressed because she cannot figure out what a white substance was and she said "Russell told me to use my head and my hands. I'm using my head, my hands, not so helpful" and he says "Maybe I have another idea for your hands." Her reaction prompts him to quickly explain himself. At the end of the episode, when she is about to put the old microscope back, he comes up to her and asks her if she's sure about that and that it might come in handy.
In Altered Stakes: Greg & Morgan @ auto body shop to ask Mr. Ben Gerard about Carl is the real hothead. The mechanic scared of him & as such a good mechanic & fix anything. Greg asked Mr. Gerard about Robert James' murdered & set him off. Morgan asked Mr. Gerard about Mr. Bowden has an access the shop after hour about a set of keys. The vehicles left overnight to have access those to get keys to fix them & keep records about 7 years ago, The vehicles left overnight last May 7, 2005.
In Dune and Gloom, Julie Finlay was talking to her boyfriend on the phone and walks in a observation room without knowing Morgan Brody was in the room leaving her with a suprised face. Finn hangs up the phone, embarrassed, and explains the situation to Morgan but Morgan says " Don't be embarrassed I'm glad someone around here has a personal life' to which Finn replies "Really Aren't you going out with Greg?" but Morgan quickly denies it. But later that episode while going around the scene Greg offers Morgan they should grab a beer and Morgan accepted the offer.
In It Was a Very Good Year, Greg is really upset about the death of a music historian, that he'd met in the past (actually, the victim was an old crush). Morgan said really beautiful things for him, for example, that he was a handsome guy and really nice (Putting her hands on his). After, she said to him that he had to move forward, and that "The best is yet to come."In Risky Business Class, Donna Hoppe says that Greg and Morgan are really cute together.She also said that "Hojem-Sanders" and "Ecklie" were both Norwegians names, so they had to be careful, because they could be "kissing cousins". They got really embarrassed.
In Exile, Greg & Morgan arrive at the scene when they're in the Dressing Room. They walk through a hallway at the crime scene thru the trash bin what they find sack. They need more light when they're close.
In Last Woman Standing, Greg shouted Morgan's name when he heard the gun shot. He runs to her side and took the gun from her trembling hand.

Burt ingested the mole poison with high Zinc. The enzymes in his stomach with mole poison creates phosphine gas and made him belch that Burt tossed himself into the trunk because his car ran out of gas when he lost his balance. The phosphine gas and made him belch from his mouth to ignited & lock himself inside & blast.
In Ghost of the Past Greg reveals to Morgan that he used to be pyschic at a young age. He believes that he inherited his ability from his Grandma Olaf. When he became a CSI, he was forced to choose between Science or being a psychic; he chose science. When Greg makes the decision to return the scene of the crime to try to find some more evidence, Morgan implies that he is crazy for believing that his ability is real. At the end, Morgan apologizes to Greg for implying that he was crazy and tells him that he did a great job in facing the killer and that he was brave considering the danger he was put in. Greg accepts the apology, only to add that it was unecessary because he understands how crazy everything sounded. Morgan offers to buy him breakfast and the two leave.
In The Devil & D.B. Russell: Greg runs into the storage to look for Morgan. When he sees a body, he thinks it's Morgan but it isn't her. Later, Ecklie & Greg run towards Morgan who lies on the ground, barely alive.
In Take the Money & Run: Greg checks on Morgan at Tangier, because she has been through a lot. Greg keeps an eye on her, offering to take care of the scene himself if she wants to leave. But Morgan is determined to work and she holds herself together until they're processing the nursery room. (A child was kidnapped.) Greg embraces Morgan when has a breakdown in front of him. Greg reminds Morgan that she's only human. She is still dealing with her own abduction and it is obvious that it'll take time before she's back to normal—or at least, a new version of normal.

Then when she was working with swing shift CSI Banks, Greg saw Morgan trying to call her and asked her if everything was ok. And Morgan tells Greg she can't get a hold of Banks, so Greg asks Morgan if she wants to do a welfare check and swing by her place. Once they get there they meet CSI Banks son, and Greg goes into protective mode to make sure Morgan is safe.
In Check In & Check Out: Morgan carries two boxes of files to Greg about motel murder scenes case. There's possessed in the same room 114 when they evidence 1) 11 weeks ago, Mark Bell, he stayed in room when his girlfriend kicked him out.

"Over the course of my public life, I have insisted, I believe correctly, that people, regardless of their position or power, take responsibility for their conduct," Spitzer, with his wife Silda by his side for the second time that week, said. "I can and will ask no less of myself. For this reason, I am resigning from the office of governor."

"In a situation like this, nothing is fast enough," Interior Secretary Mar Roxas said in Tacloban, most of which was destroyed by the storm one week ago. "The need is massive, the need is immediate, and you can't reach everyone."
Government officials have given different death tolls, both actual and estimated, as a result of the storm.
Given the scale of the disaster, and infrastructure and communications problems, this is not unusual.
The spokesman for the country's civil defense agency, Maj.
Some officials estimate that the final toll, when the missing are declared dead and remote regions reached, will be more than 10,000.
At least 600,000 people have been displaced.
Authorities are struggling to meet their immediate needs, an expected occurrence after major disasters, especially in already poor countries where local and national governments lack capacity.
The pace of the aid effort has picked up over the last 24 hours, according to reporters who have been in the region for several days. Foreign governments are dispatching food, water, medical supplies and trained staff to the region. Trucks and generators are also arriving.
But many people complain that the aid effort is inadequate.
"The government's distribution system is not enough. They are handing out small food packets to each household.
Her friend, Susan Tan, whose grocery store and warehouse were completely looted after the typhoon, is despondent but determined to carry on with her life and help others.
She's now using her empty warehouse as a center from where people can make calls on a satellite phone she got from a friend who works for local telecoms company Smart. There has been no cell phone service in the town since last Friday.
"This was my store. Now's it's a relief center and a call center," said Tan, 43. "It was ransacked by panicked .
Now, the barren blue shelves are empty. Still it is serving a purpose, with about 100 people queued up outside waiting to make calls. The free calls are limited to one minute each.
Johnny Ogriman, one of the men waiting in the line, said he has not spoken to any family members since the typhoon hit last week. "I'm trying to call my brother in Saudi Arabia. I want to let him know that we're alive, that we're safe," he said.
"Although I've been looted and bankrupt by this, I cannot refuse my friends and my town. We need to help each other," she said. "I can't just go to Cebu and sit in the mall while this place is in ruins."
Defense Secretary Voltaire Gazmin told The Associated Press that armed forces have set up communications lines and C-130 transport planes are conducting regular flights to Tacloban, the capital of Leyte.
"The biggest challenge is to be able to reach out to all the areas and overwhelm them with food and water. There are just a few more areas in Leyte and Samar that have not been reached and our hope is that we will reach all these areas today, 100 percent," he said.
In Tacloban city, the big challenge is the restoration of power, where many electric posts are down. But it may take some time because of the debris, he said.
Troops are removing bodies near the sea with the help of the Departments of Health, Public Works and Highways, he said.
Water filtration systems are also operating in Tacloban and two other towns in Leyte province, the hardest-hit area. Helicopters are dropping relief supplies, he said.
Gazmin said that looting has been brought under control and no incidents have been reported over the past two days. "Our augmentation of the police and Philippine army was able to stop the problem of lawlessness," he said.
A U.S. aircraft carrier, the USS George Washington, is moored off the coast, preparing for a major relief mission. The fleet of helicopters on board is expected to drop food and water to the worst affected areas. The aircraft carrier will set up a position off the coast of Samar Island to assess the damage and provide medical and water supplies, the 7th Fleet said in a statement.
The carrier and its strike group together bring 21 helicopters to the area, which can help reach the most inaccessible parts of the disaster zone.
The United Kingdom also is sending an aircraft carrier, the HMS Illustrious, with seven helicopters and facilities to produce fresh water, Britain's Ministry of Defense said. It said the ship is expected to reach the area about Nov. 25.
AP writers Todd Pitman in Guiuan and Jim Gomez in Manila contributed to this report.

Elkskin and Deerskin Gloves
Washable Leather?
"All of the elkskin glove models are cut and sewn on the exact same patterns so they fit similarly from model to model, but there are slight variations from glove to glove because each glove is hand made and each section of elkhide is a little different. A great way to quickly custom-fit a new pair is to fully wet-saturate on a warm day when you know you'll be riding continuously for several hours, then let them dry and conform to the shape of your hands during that ride.
Elkskin and deerskin can be safely washed using warm water and mild soap. This removes accumulated dirt, oils and stains and will help gloves last longer and feel nicer. After rinsing to remove residual soap, gloves should be gently wrung damp and allowed to dry gradually at room temperature. Do not apply direct heat when drying. They shrink slightly but will stretch to fit during wear."

[This article was posted Feb. 11, 2011. On Feb. 14, 2011, the Health Minister announced the regulations would be passed, with an exemption for beer makers.]
Like the guest who finally turns up for dinner just as you're clearing the dessert plates, Canada's breweries last month showed up to bellyache about the proposed gluten and allergen labeling regulations.
What's amazing is that Health Canada and the Prime Minister's Office didn't just send this nervy latecomer home with a foil swan.
Canada has been a pioneer in "considering" label rules that would clearly identify food allergen and gluten in sources on packaged foods. Consultations on the issue began in earnest in 1996, the same year that Atlanta hosted the Olympic Summer Games; the year a young Alanis Morissette swept the Grammys.
In the 15 intervening years, all the consulting, revising, reviewing and re-revising by the food and beverage industry, distillers, bureaucrats, allergy groups, doctors and celiac associations was supposed to have finished.
In July 2008, Tony Clement, then our Health Minister, promised the regulations to millions of Canadians who live with food allergies and celiac disease. The label regulations were finally accepted by all stakeholders in February 2010; they were good to go. And they did complete one stage of the process.
There was just a second stage left to pass. But then the regulations sat, stalled at Treasury Board. The allergy and celiac communities began lobbying again in December with an open letter to the Prime Minister and an online write-in campaign.
Just as the current Health Minister, Leona Aglukkaq wrote back promising the regulations would pass in "early 2011," the brewers came to Ottawa, guns blazing.
"It was very disheartening to receive a letter from the Health Minister reaffirming her commitment to this issue only to learn a few days later from the Prime Minister's Office that an exemption was being considered for the beer industry," said Laurie Harada, Anaphylaxis Canada's executive director.
No kidding. There was cooperation and sign-off from all the foodmakers, liquor makers, cake bakers, you name it – and now the brewers want another delay? The regulations were considered close to expiration date from neglect last winter. What will further delay do? If a spring election does occur, it will be back to the drawing board.
How do we lose this guest? Where is the foil? This party was meant to be a wrap.
In this community, we depend on clear labels for the basics of eating and drinking. We grow weary of being patient. We tire of avoiding food upon food in the grocery store because of mystery ingredients like "natural flavours," "spices" or "hydrolyzed protein" (Is HP soy? wheat? corn? milk? Answer: any of the above). We just want to know what's in our food and drink. And you know what? Even the non-allergic are beginning to demand the same.
The food allergy and celiac community remains resolved to seeing these regulations through despite the protracted battle to get the job done. What the beer companies and the prime ministerial advisers don't seem to get is this simple fact: we need those labels; they are not optional.

The Texas Rangers have completed a $10 million, one-year deal for six-time All-Star Lance Berkman to be their designated hitter.
The deal that includes a vesting option for 2014 was finalized Monday after Berkman passed a physical.
Berkman, who turns 37 next month, was limited to 32 games in St. Louis last year, when he had surgery twice on his right knee.
The switch-hitter provides the potential big bat for the middle of the lineup the Rangers were seeking after losing Josh Hamilton and catcher Mike Napoli in free agency and trading Michael Young to Philadelphia.
Berkman is a .296 career hitter with 360 home runs and 1,200 RBIs in 1,806 regular-season games, all but 214 with Houston from 1999-2010.

33 U.S. Code § 2283 - Fish and wildlife mitigation
prev | next
(a) Steps to be taken prior to or concurrently with construction
(1) In the case of any water resources project which is authorized to be constructed by the Secretary before, on, or after November 17, 1986, construction of which has not commenced as of November 17, 1986, and which necessitates the mitigation of fish and wildlife losses, including the acquisition of lands or interests in lands to mitigate losses to fish and wildlife, as a result of such project, such mitigation, including acquisition of the lands or interests—
(A) shall be undertaken or acquired before any construction of the project (other than such acquisition) commences, or
(B) shall be undertaken or acquired concurrently with lands and interests in lands for project purposes (other than mitigation of fish and wildlife losses),
whichever the Secretary determines is appropriate, except that any physical construction required for the purposes of mitigation may be undertaken concurrently with the physical construction of such project.
(b) Acquisition of lands or interests in lands for mitigation
(1) After consultation with appropriate Federal and non-Federal agencies, the Secretary is authorized to mitigate damages to fish and wildlife resulting from any water resources project under his jurisdiction, whether completed, under construction, or to be constructed. Such mitigation may include the acquisition of lands, or interests therein, except that—
(A) acquisition under this paragraph shall not be by condemnation in the case of projects completed as of November 17, 1986, or on which at least 10 percent of the physical construction on the project has been completed as of November 17, 1986; and
The Secretary, shall, under the terms of this paragraph, obligate no more than $30,000,000 in any fiscal year. With respect to any water resources project, the authority under this subsection shall not apply to measures that cost more than $7,500,000 or 10 percent of the cost of the project, whichever is greater.
(2) Whenever, after his review, the Secretary determines that such mitigation features under this subsection are likely to require condemnation under subparagraph (A) or (B) of paragraph (1) of this subsection, the Secretary shall transmit to Congress a report on such proposed modification, together with his recommendations.
(c) Allocation of mitigation costs
Costs incurred after November 17, 1986, including lands, easements, rights-of-way, and relocations, for implementation and operation, maintenance, and rehabilitation to mitigate damages to fish and wildlife shall be allocated among authorized project purposes in accordance with applicable cost allocation procedures, and shall be subject to cost sharing or reimbursement to the same extent as such other project costs are shared or reimbursed, except that when such costs are covered by contracts entered into prior to November 17, 1986, such costs shall not be recovered without the consent of the non-Federal interests or until such contracts are complied with or renegotiated.
(d) Mitigation plans as part of project proposals
(1) In general
After November 17, 1986, the Secretary shall not submit any proposal for the authorization of any water resources project to Congress in any report, and shall not select a project alternative in any report, unless such report contains
(A) a recommendation with a specific plan to mitigate for damages to ecological resources, including terrestrial and aquatic resources, and fish and wildlife losses created by such project, or
(B) a determination by the Secretary that such project will have negligible adverse impact on ecological resources and fish and wildlife without the implementation of mitigation measures. Specific mitigation plans shall ensure that impacts to bottomland hardwood forests are mitigated in-kind, and other habitat types are mitigated to not less than in-kind conditions, to the extent possible. If the Secretary determines that mitigation to in-kind conditions is not possible, the Secretary shall identify in the report the basis for that determination and the mitigation measures that will be implemented to meet the requirements of this section and the goals of section 2317 (a)(1) of this title. In carrying out this subsection, the Secretary shall consult with appropriate Federal and non-Federal agencies.
(2) Selection and design of mitigation projects
The Secretary shall select and design mitigation projects using a watershed approach to reflect contemporary understanding of the science of mitigating the adverse environmental impacts of water resources projects.
(3) Mitigation requirements
(A) In general
To mitigate losses to flood damage reduction capabilities and fish and wildlife resulting from a water resources project, the Secretary shall ensure that the mitigation plan for each water resources project complies with, at a minimum, the mitigation standards and policies established pursuant to the regulatory programs administered by the Secretary.
(B) Inclusions
A specific mitigation plan for a water resources project under paragraph (1) shall include, at a minimum—
(i) a plan for monitoring the implementation and ecological success of each mitigation measure, including the cost and duration of any monitoring, and, to the extent practicable, a designation of the entities that will be responsible for the monitoring;
(ii) the criteria for ecological success by which the mitigation will be evaluated and determined to be successful based on replacement of lost functions and values of the habitat, including hydrologic and vegetative characteristics;
(iii) for projects where mitigation will be carried out by the Secretary—
(iv) for projects where mitigation will be carried out through a third party mitigation arrangement in accordance with subsection (i)—
(v) a description of—
(II) the physical action to be undertaken to achieve the mitigation objectives within the watershed in which such losses occur and, in any case in which the mitigation will occur outside the watershed, a detailed explanation for undertaking the mitigation outside the watershed; and
(C) Responsibility for monitoring
In any case in which it is not practicable to identify in a mitigation plan for a water resources project the entity responsible for monitoring at the time of a final report of the Chief of Engineers or other final decision document for the project, such entity shall be identified in the partnership agreement entered into with the non-Federal interest under section 1962d–5b of title 42.
(4) Determination of success
(A) In general
A mitigation plan under this subsection shall be considered to be successful at the time at which the criteria under paragraph (3)(B)(ii) are achieved under the plan, as determined by monitoring under paragraph (3)(B)(i).
(B) Consultation
In determining whether a mitigation plan is successful under subparagraph (A), the Secretary shall consult annually with appropriate Federal agencies and each State in which the applicable project is located on at least the following:
(ii) The likelihood that the mitigation will achieve ecological success, as defined in the mitigation plan.
(e) First enhancement costs as Federal costs
In those cases when the Secretary, as part of any report to Congress, recommends activities to enhance fish and wildlife resources, the first costs of such enhancement shall be a Federal cost when—
(1) such enhancement provides benefits that are determined to be national, including benefits to species that are identified by the National Marine Fisheries Service as of national economic importance, species that are subject to treaties or international convention to which the United States is a party, and anadromous fish;
(2) such enhancement is designed to benefit species that have been listed as threatened or endangered by the Secretary of the Interior under the terms of the Endangered Species Act, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531, et seq.), or
When benefits of enhancement do not qualify under the preceding sentence, 25 percent of such first costs of enhancement shall be provided by non-Federal interests under a schedule of reimbursement determined by the Secretary. Not more than 80 percent of the non-Federal share of such first costs may be satisfied through in-kind contributions, including facilities, supplies, and services that are necessary to carry out the enhancement project. The non-Federal share of operation, maintenance, and rehabilitation of activities to enhance fish and wildlife resources shall be 25 percent.
(f) National benefits from enhancement measures for Atchafalaya Floodway System and Mississippi Delta Region projects
Fish and wildlife enhancement measures carried out as part of the project for Atchafalaya Floodway System, Louisiana, authorized by Public Law 99–88, and the project for Mississippi Delta Region, Louisiana, authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1965, shall be considered to provide benefits that are national for purposes of this section.

Many Kentucky fans in Louisville look forward to the annual game in Freedom Hall, sponsored by the University of Kentucky Alumni Association in Louisville. The meeting between University of Arkansas at Little Rock and Kentucky brought fans out on a chilly evening in Louisville. Darius Miller was the star of the evening as he joins 57 other Kentucky players to reach 1000 points in their Wildcat careers.
The first half left much to be desired from the Cats as UALR ran the floor and fought hard for every possession. Anthony Davis led the Cats in scoring with 22, followed by Miller with 15. Jones stepped up his game with 10 on the night, and played more aggressively than in recent match-ups.
UALR owned the first half, but Kentucky came out screaming in the second. UALR's time had come as the Cats went on a campaign to shut down UALR's shooting. Coach Cal commented on the game, "if my guys think they can play like this in our tournament(SEC) and win, they cannot. Our tournament is tough and physical"
Kentucky will begin SEC Conference play Saturday in Rupp against South Carolina at 4 pm. The meeting with the Gamecocks will set the tone for the more aggressive teams Kentucky will face on the road to a championship.

Welcome Aboard from the Commanding Officer
Thank you for signing on to our Web site. Whether you are a new shipmate with orders to the PENOBSCOT BAY, or a member of the public curious about the cutter and its missions, please take a minute to browse our pages.
In April 2009, PENOBSCOT BAY announced the debut of an extensive online Ship's History Archive. After several months of preparation, we digitized and carefully organized hundreds of megabytes of historical content, including: dozens of historical documents, including a section dedicated to the cutter's christening and commissioning; over 50 newspaper and magazine articles featuring the cutter and its operations since PENOBSCOT BAY was commissioned in 1985; archival photographs digitized from original onboard negatives; and a number of awards from the cutter's onboard historical files. The Archive is the beginning of an ongoing effort to share the PENOBSCOT BAY story and preserve the legacy left by her crew.
Complementing our efforts to document the cutter's remarkable history, we've also established a PENOBSCOT BAY "fan page" on Facebook.com to chronicle her more recent operations and accomplishments. The page features up-to-the-minute updates on PENOBSCOT BAY operations, including photo galleries, video, links to news coverage of the PENOBSCOT BAY, and regular blog-style updates from the Captain and crew. Keep up with us during ice season this year by visiting the page regularly!

Centennial 'to be a big party,' Filner says
San Diego Goodbye "Edge 2015," hello San Diego Balboa Park Centennial 2015.
Mayor Bob Filner, representatives of the production company Autonomy and members of the nonprofit Balboa Park Celebration Inc. on Tuesday revealed new plans for the 100th anniversary of the 1915 Panama-California Exposition in Balboa Park.
"It's going to be a big party in 2015, but it's going to be more than a party," said Filner at a well-attended meeting at the Old Globe Theatre. "It's going to celebrate who we are."
The "Edge 2015" brand for the celebration, unveiled last October with much fanfare, was intended to stress the celebration's theme of innovation. That theme may still be evident in some of the celebration's eventual programming — and in some of the separate programming planned by the individual institutions — but it's being downplayed in favor of a broader approach that will focus on seasonal "spectaculars," park programing and citywide programming.
The "spectaculars" include a water and light show on San Diego Bay, a televised mega-concert at the border and a "1915 gala weekend" in the park, and a surprise.
For the park programming, the organizers expect to turn the Plaza de Panama into a Celebration Plaza that could host international festivals, and rename the Spreckels Organ Pavilion the Centennial Stage, which would be the site of a series of proposed lectures (the "Centennial Forum") and other events. A "play" component of the park programming remains undetermined, as does the citywide programming and the budget for the enterprise (estimated as high as $50 million). Filner and Adam Burke of Autonomy (the L.A.-based firm contracted to produce the event), said the entire event was scalable, based on fundraising.
Nikki Clay, co-chair of Balboa Park Celebration Inc., introduced the organization's new CEO, Julie Dubick. Clay said fundraising, "now that a structure is in place," would be the priority.

Why Intelligent Design Fails
"This book is a readable and devastating scientific analysis of intelligent design creationism. ... unlike ID's proponents, these authors have done the real science that deflates the claims of intelligent design. Their work deserves the respect of everyone with a say in what is taught in public school science classes."
ASB adds its Voice for Evolution
NCSE is pleased to announce a further addition to Voices for Evolution: a statement from the Association of Southeastern Biologists, reading in part: "[S]ince neither creationism nor intelligent design is a scientific endeavor, we oppose any attempts to insert them into the science curricula of any public schools. While religion has played and continues to play a significant role in many people's lives, and in schools' curricula, we object to any attempts to insert religious dogma, such as creationism or intelligent design, into science classes.

|TRON: Uprising
Mara is a supporting character in TRON: Uprising, voiced by Mandy Moore. She is one of Beck's best friends and his co-worker at Able's garage. Mara specializes in making deadly weapons and vehicles. She has also expressed admiration for Beck's renegade program disguise, completely unaware of his true identity.
Beck's Beginning
Mara had worked at Able's garage for much of her life. She specialized in working on the deadliest vehicles and weaponry on the Grid. Then Clu's forces took control of Argon City, and Mara's friend Bodhi was derezzed before her eyes by a guard. Mara was upset but did nothing. A short time later, a new statue of Clu was destroyed by a mysterious program who, unknown to Mara, was her friend Beck in disguise. Talking about the incident with her friends at the garage, Mara expressed admiration for the program's bravery, and also commented that he looked handsome, though Zed noted in exasperation that he was wearing a mask. This was the first of what would be many clashes between them about whether the renegade was a blessing or a curse.
General Tesler began to have programs seized and forced to fight in the Games, hoping to draw the renegade out and capture him. Mara and her friend Zed were among the captured programs, and were taken by light rail toward the city's new Coliseum. En route, the train's beam supports were sabotaged, causing it to crash, and the renegade freed the trapped programs. As the prisoners fled in all directions, Mara wanted to stop and greet or thank their rescuer, but Zed took her wrist and pulled her onward.
The Renegade
Unaware of the crush that Zed had been secretly nursing for her, Mara accompanied him and several of their other coworkers to the 0001001 Club, their most frequent hangout. Zed, too embarrassed to take the initiative and ask to dance with Mara, sat alone at a table and enviously watched her dance with the others. By the time Mara rejoined him, he had been approached by a program named Perl; Mara asked him to dance, but Zed, disappointed that she had asked out of friendship, departed with Perl.
During their next workshift, Mara noticed Zed was acting strangely. She realized what was wrong when Able walked in, looking for the missing baton of his rare ENCOM-786 light cycle. Zed started to make up a story, but Mara pulled him away with an excuse, using a tracking device to help him find the stolen baton.
Together, Mara and Zed confronted Perl and her criminal gang; Perl taunted Zed, but Mara punched her, saying that nobody insulted her best friend like that. Zed grabbed the missing baton and the two sped off. They accidentally led the pursuing gang straight into Paige, who had been fighting the renegade, and in the confusion Mara and Zed escaped. Mara later reassured Zed when he complained that he'd never be worthy of a girl like Perl.
Mara was present during the start of the Argon Race, supporting Zed, who was taking part. She was also present during Tesler's speech, disapproving of the general's message even as Zed cheered for it. Beck later told Zed that Mara had informed him what happened at the race, in order to avoid revealing that he had been there himself as the renegade.
Speculating on the renegade's identity, Mara decided she hoped he actually wasn't Tron, as she liked his air of mystery; she disapproved when Zed scoffed that the program was simply afraid to show his face.
When Zed excitedly showed her his new invention, a weapon that could derezz a light cycle by hitting its light ribbon, she pointed out in dismay that the weapon wouldn't just stop the renegade but derezz him. Zed tried once again to convince her that the renegade was the bad guy and he was only trying to do the right thing by inventing a way to stop him, but she expressed her disappointment that he had fallen in with Bartik and Hopper, saying that she hadn't expected him to be like them. Nonetheless, she showed up for his first official test of the invention, and her presence influenced him to sabotage the device so that Paige's anti-renegade taskforce wouldn't use it.
The Price of Power
Mara interrupted Bartik and Hopper when they arrived at the garage to harass Zed and the other workers. When Hopper said that they were there to see that her "pretty little hands" worked as fast as possible on Tesler's new battle tank, she said that her "pretty little fists" worked much faster, and, slapping a fist into her palm, offered to demonstrate. However, Able intervened before she could finish the threat. After the two threatening programs left, Mara offered to help Zed with the light cycle they had knocked over, but Zed, embarrassed to have been seen in a bad light, brushed her off and rolled it away.
Later, she saw Beck breaking up another confrontation between Hopper and Zed by twisting Hopper's arm and throwing him to the ground. When Beck drew his disc, Mara ran forward to stop him, shocked that he had come close to seriously hurting another program. However, when she later learned that Hopper and Bartik had instigated the arrest of the garage crew by Tesler's guards, she said that if her hands were free she would derezz them.
When a fight broke out in the garage, Zed broke free during the chaos, and freed Mara as well. Mara ran to save another coworker, but Zed saw that a detached light jet was about to fall on her, and leaped to throw her clear. The fall knocked her out and left her with a wound on one arm; Zed carried her to safety and left her with Able while going back into the garage to rescue Hopper and Bartik.
After the battle, Mara used her identity disc to edit a patch over the wound on her arm, and said she wished she could have thanked Tron for saving her. Beck, however, broke in and told her it was Zed who saved her; astonished, she took Zed's hand and thanked him.
The Reward
When General Tesler offered a reward for the capture of the renegade, Mara, among the crowd gathered in the Coliseum, was grabbed in a headlock by Zed, who joked that he had the renegade right there. Mara, however, was more excited that Argon City's curfew had been temporarily canceled, and she, Beck, and Zed would be able to have a carefree night on the town, just like the old days. However, their evening at the 0001001 Club was interrupted when Pavel marched in to arrest Hopper as the renegade. Knowing that she and Zed could prove that Hopper had been present when Pavel was fighting the renegade at the garage, the two brought their information to Paige; but Tesler, predisposed to believe Pavel and offended that Mara had reached out to touch his cloak as she pleaded to be heard, sentenced Mara and Zed to die with Hopper.
The three programs were bound in the center of Argon Square, with Occupation light cycles ready to take off and tear them apart. As the ropes were slowly tightened, Zed told Mara that it would be okay, and that she should close her eyes. Mara replied that he was her best friend, but that there was something she had always wished had happened; but before she could finish, the renegade arrived in Link's new light roadster and rescued them.
Driving away with the renegade, after Zed, at Mara's instigation, booted an ungrateful Hopper out of the car, Mara expressed glee at the exciting rescue. She scolded Zed for remarking that the trouble they were in was the renegade's fault to begin with, and wished that Beck could have been there with them, saying he would have loved this. The renegade, not wishing to reveal his identity, told them to remember that Tron lived, and separated the roadster into two double-seater lightcycles. Mara drove away with Zed in the seat behind her; Zed asked her, as he had several times before, what she had intended to say in the square, but she evaded the question.
Mara's planned ring game with Zed and Beck was canceled due to sentries hogging the playing field. Later, in the garage, Zed was supposed to keep an eye on Beck but wandered off to help Mara with her work instead, nearly allowing Beck to sneak out against Able's orders.
Mara was later in the crowd at Argon Square, watching the renegade battle Tesler.
We Both Know How This Ends
Arriving at the garage before the start of her shift, Mara criticized the state in which the second shift had left their workspace. Her ruminations were interrupted by Able, who, taking a day off to complete a task, put her in charge for the shift, responding to her surprise with, "What other choice do I have?"
Mara's shift started off on a sour note when Beck and Zed came in late. They were surprised to find her in charge and agreed to back her up, but soon proceeded, along with Copper and Dash, to slack off as much as they could, brushing aside her entreaties. Things took an even worse turn when Pavel arrived with twelve tanks which had been sabotaged by the renegade, threatening the entire shift with the Games unless the tanks were repaired by the time he returned. When Mara tried to rally her coworkers to work together and thus finish sooner, Dash scoffed that there was no time and that listening to her would get them all derezzed. Overriding Mara's protests, he convinced the team to scatter and work by themselves, throwing the garage into chaos.
As the time limit approached, Mara discovered that Link had inadvertently and briefly reset the tank he was working on, and extrapolated a way to fix all of the vehicles. Beck, fearing that there wasn't enough time for the team to finish, attempted to sneak off to his locker for his renegade disguise in order to stall Pavel somehow, but Mara followed and sternly informed him that his slacking might have been okay with Able but it was not with her, and that he needed to spend more time working on not getting derezzed. Back on the floor, she called the team to attention, telling them she'd made a mistake trying to act a friend when what they needed was a leader, and saying that if they failed to fix the tanks, she would take all the responsibility herself. She then showed them Link's fix, and the team managed to implement it on all twelve tanks just in time for Pavel's deadline.
When Able returned, he told her he was pleased he hadn't made a mistake with her. Surprised, she said she'd thought he had no choice, and he clarified that that was because she'd been his first and only choice.
Mara recruited two programs, Moog and Rasket, to help her spread the message that Tron lived by tagging buildings all across Argon City with free code. When a program in a red-circuited disguise captured the masked trio, Mara stubbornly insisted that she believed Tron lived. The program then revealed himself to be the renegade, and Mara unmasked herself after her teammates did, delighted to meet her hero and immediately pledging herself to "Tron"'s cause, unaware all the time that the renegade was really Beck.
When the renegade gathered the three together to plan a raid on Tesler's ship, Mara understood immediately that she and her teammates were meant to provide a distraction while the action took place. She sought approval from the others, but they were disappointed with the lack of fun and notoriety for them in the plan. Disappointed, the renegade turned to leave, but Mara called him back, and roundly scolded the others for focusing on trivial things while the renegade was risking his life for them. She declared that whatever they did, she would be on his side, and after a moment's reflection, they agreed.
The raid went off without a hitch, but Moog and Rasket separated from Mara instead of accompanying her to the meeting place afterward, though she tried to call them back. She met the renegade alone and told him that the two had decided to tag Tesler's ship by themselves; when the renegade asked what they thought they were doing, she retorted that they hadn't been thinking and that she'd been accustomed to doing the thinking for them. The renegade told her to wait while he went in after them, but she refused, boldly citing her knowledge of her teammates and their ways and stating that he'd never find them without her. Reluctantly, he agreed to bring her along. On the light-jet ride to Tesler's ship, Mara gleefully said that she wished Zed were there to share in the experience.
Mara and the renegade discovered Rasket and Moog being tortured by Pavel, and broke the torture device to rescue them. While the renegade held Paige off, Mara tried to reopen the door of the ship, which was steadily closing, but there wasn't enough time. A recognizer loomed overhead; Moog and Rasket ran from it, but Mara snatched Rasket's free-code tool and corrupted the craft with Tron Lives graffiti, obscuring its viewscreen and causing it to crash. Worried about the renegade, she hung back as her friends bailed out of the ship, and was stunned and jolted from its platform by light copter fire. When she came to, the renegade had caught her in midair, and she put her head trustingly on his shoulder and closed her eyes again as his lightjet carried her back to the meeting point.
After her teammates quit, she turned to the renegade, renewing her commitment in determined tones, unknowingly echoing Beck's own early words to Tron -- "I'm ready for this!" -- but he brushed her off, saying curtly that she was no use to him alone. He later told Tron that it had been the only way to get her to leave; she had been the one true believer in the cause, but he, shaken by her narrow brush with death, hadn't been ready for the consequences. Tron assured him that if Mara was truly on the right path, she would still be there when Beck was ready.
Elsewhere in the city, a crowd gathered around yet another monument defaced with the "Tron Lives" code. Mara, letting her rebel mask retract under a concealing hood, observed her handiwork and smiled.
State of Mind
Mara was driving to work in a Tow Truck. She had it on auto-pilot while she was looking through new colors to turn her hair. She decided to turn it green until she sees a sign with Tron Lives written on it. she admires it until a drone drives off a bridge and causes an accident. Mara switches the truck to manual and tries to avoid the accident but the truck swerves out of control and crashes. She is taken to a hospital where she is injected with a new drug that makes her a Clu loyalist. Later, she goes to work and starts saying how she's changed and when she sees a bunch of recognizers in the sky, she admires them and calls them beautiful. Beck brushes it off and walks off while Zed worries about his friend.
Later, Zed finds her at a club, talking to Hopper and Bartik]] about going to a party with her. Zed finds out she dyed her hair orange. She tells Zed about a party that Tesler is throwing. Zed tries to get her to leave but she refuses and says that Clu will bring order to the Grid and he will reward his supporters like her. When Zed mentions the Renegade, she pins his face to the table and threatens to break his arm. She hates the Renegade now and believes that he's spreading lies about Clu. She lets go of him and leaves with Bartik and Hopper. Later, Zed finds her at the party. She's excited he came and shouts Long Live, Clu. Zed drags her away from the party and tries to talk to her. When she sees a Tron Lives sign, she takes out her identity disc and starts smashing it. Zed tries to stop her but she pushes him aside. When Zed grabs her arm, she punches him in the face, pins him to the ground, takes out her disc and gets ready to derez him. When Beck, as the Renegade, smashes Tesler's ship into a tower thats releasing the drug, Mara turns back to normal. To make sure she's back, Zed asks her about the Renegade. She says that she thinks he's doing good and walks off. At the end of the episode, she changes her hair from orange to light blue again.
- Mara does not appear in Isolated, Scars: Part I or Part 2, or The Stranger.
- Mara is one of the few Basic programs who does not seem to be named after an aspect of computing history.

The folks on a fishing boat off our coast got a rare, first-hand look at migrating whales last week.
About 20 people were onboard the Captain Stacy out of Atlantic Beach November 23 about 2:30 p.m. when they spotted the whales. The boat was about 28 miles offshore.
The captain, Maurice Davis Jr., said they spotted three whales and estimates the lengths at 40 to 50 feet. He told WITN the whale in the photo jumped at least 17 times while they watched.
According to the North Carolina Aquarium, eight of the ten "great" whales have been reported in our coastal waters. Whales are classified as great if they reach lengths of 30 feet or more.
The humpback is included in this classification. Captain Davis said it appeared that the whale in the photo was a humpback, and it feeds on fish like shad and menhaden.
Several humpbacks have been spotted off our coast over the years, in December and January as they head south to warm waters to breed or give birth or in March and April as they move northward again.

HAGERSTOWN, Md. (WUSA) - The weekend crash has shaken this community.
All day long, young people have been stopping at this makeshift memorial, trying to make sense of the sudden loss of two lives so filled with promise.
Shattered car parts still litter the ground. And friends keep adding to the memorial. Brendon's batting gloves, his sunglasses, volleyballs for Sam.
The couple was returning from the prom Saturday night in Shepardstown. Sam wanted to change. There's a bit of a rise, then a sharp curve. The car left the road here, skidded along the embankment, and then slammed into the tree. Both teens were pronounced dead at the scene.
Police say Colliflower was speeding in his Honda S 2000 sports car, but they've yet to release an estimate or how fast he was going.
The Hagerstown paper had named Colliflower the All County pitcher of the year. Kelly was a star in both volleyball and tennis, where she was the No. 1 girls' singles player for the tennis team this spring. Both were seniors on the honor roll.
At Williamsport High School, students say there was just silence and tears on this Monday after the crash. One teacher broke down crying in front of her class. And students tried and failed to make some sense of this.
Brendan's father was here on Sunday, but too shaken to talk.
A spokesman for the Washington County Schools said he is still waiting for news on funeral arrangements for the teenagers.
But it's a reminder to all of us to slow down and stay alive.

Andy Pettitte as a Cub
With the Jake Peavy deal in the rear view mirror, at least for the time being, the Cubs should go after F.A. Andy Pettitte.
Despite the fact Pettitte has hinted at retirement the past several seasons if not resigned by the Yankees, I still think an opportunity to win a championship with Chicago could lure the 37-year-old lefty back to the NL Central.
Although it seems Pettitte is often thought of as injury-prone and washed-up, it's quite the contrary.
Beginning with the 2005 season, Andy has pitched 200+ innings, made no less than 33 starts per season and registered no less than 14 wins per year.
Not to mention, he's been money during post season having recorded (14) wins in a whopping 35 post season starts.
Granted the Yanks kept Pettitte from retirement with back-to-back $16 million deals, it's reasonable to think Andy would be willing to sign with Chicago for closer to what he made with the Astros: '04 – $5.5 million, '05 – $8.5 million.
Plus, the addition of Pettitte would allow Sean Marshall to stay in the pen as a needed left-handed specialist and he would offer the rotation security for the more unpredictable Rich Harden.
On the South Side, it's an interesting decision by GM Kenny Williams to welcome back Bartolo Colon.
Since winning 21 games with the Angels in 2005, Colon's only specialty has been fighting through nagging injuries, which, has limited the 36-year-old to a meek 34 starts combined during the past three seasons and his record in that same time frame is a sub .500 (11-15).
And while I'm always in favor of adding power arms, if for no other reason than post season play, Colon's career mark during October is a paltry (1-3) with a 4.15 ERA in eight starts.
Sure, Colon will play with a non-guaranteed contract, but the early predictions that Colon will be the team's fourth starter are well, just that, too early to tell.
Worse, recent history says he'll be far from it.

Vol State Offers New Accelerated Programs for Fall Semester
Submitted on June 27, 2011 at 12:51 PM
College students want to learn at their own speed and for some that means an accelerated schedule. Volunteer State Community College is responding to that need with two new accelerated programs for the fall semester.
Vol State offers accelerated programs in what is called the Fast-Track format. Fast-Track programs are career focused. Students move through the program as a group, learning and studying together. This fall the college will add an Early Childhood Education Fast-Track program. Students will work together in accelerated coursework to earn a technical certificate and then can continue to earn an associate of applied science degree. Extra support and ease in registration are hallmarks of the Fast-Track programs. The goal is to help students get into programs easily and have success in their coursework.
The Criminal Justice Fast-Track program is also expanding this year to now include an associate of applied science (AAS) degree. The program is an accelerated version of the 60-credit-hour Criminal Justice AAS degree program. The fast-paced coursework is accomplished in seven academic sessions, running one-year. The foundation of this Fast-Track program is the Criminal Justice Technical Certificate, which has been offered for the last year. The 18-unit technical certificate focuses on law enforcement, homeland security, corrections, investigations, and the judicial system. Successful students in the technical certificate program will now be able to complete more Fast-Track coursework to receive the AAS degree. For more information on the Criminal Justice and Early Childhood Education Fast-Track programs contact the division of Social Science and Education at 615-230-3240.
Vol State has hundreds of courses coming up in the fall semester. New classes will be offered in bluegrass music theory and instruction. Fall classes start on August 27. Vol State fall class registration can be accomplished online or in-person. The fall schedule and catalog are available on the college website at www.volstate.edu . New students will need to fill out an application first. That can be done online or in-person by visiting the Office of Admissions in the Ramer Building room 173. Students with questions can also call 615-230-3688. Vol State is located at 1480 Nashville Pike in Gallatin.

Peterson Air Force Base just released more information on the suspicious packages that caused a lock-down earlier today.
The five suspicious packages found at the Eberhardt-Findley Building, home of the North American Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Northern Command, have been assessed as non-threatening. In fact, the packages contained simple office supplies once examined.
New information tonight about those 5 suspicious packages found in the NORAD-NORTHCOM headquarters building on Peterson AFB.
We brought you the information as a breaking news alert on 11 News At Noon.
KKTV 11 News reporter Karen Morfitt has been out at the base all afternoon.
At this time, officials have lifted the 500 foot safety zone that was put in to place as a precaution. The two buildings next to the NORAD-NORTHCOM headquarters have also been released from increased security.
Those precautions were put in to place Just before 10 this morning after the packages were found.
Officials also had the north gate going in to Peterson Air Force Base closed off until about one afternoon.
We're told a team of military dogs was brought in to help clear the scene of any danger and testing we know has been done on those 5 suspicious packages to help determine what's inside
"Preliminary test results of the package indicated that there is not a positive test for a nuclear, biological or chemical element contained within the package," according to a representative from the base.
About 1,500 people who work in that NORAD-NORTHCOM headquarters had to be evacuated and have not been allowed anywhere near the building since
The investigation into those packages still very active NORAD-NORTHCOM officials say none of their missions have been interrupted.
