"What I really like about Wedding Paper Divas is having the ability to customize. The finished product is simply gorgeous! I ordered the Classic Cursive shower invitation in rich red (front/back) with white writing. On the backside I asked that they print directions - a very nice touch. I kept with the basic square invitation and went with the rectangular envelope with pre-printed return address so as not to pay additional postage. It fit snug in the envelope. Fantastic service; highly recommended!"
"The quality is perfect and makes a wonderful presentation The watercolor design is elegant and warm. I am so happy with these invitations. Thank you."
"This was a very classic and simple card that was perfect for my sister-in-law. She isn't into flowers or silhouettes of the bride etc. I got it in the leaf color with the scalloped edges, which added a nice touch to the design of the card. Everyone has commented on what a nice invite it is."
"The photos do not do them justice...they were absolutely stunning! The pearlized paper finish was totally worth the extra cost for both the invitations and the envelopes. The matching stickers perfectly fit my theme with a custom saying. The designer was prompt and accommodating with special requests with regard to verbiage and design. I couldn't have been more pleased with the outcome and received many compliments on them."
"Beautiful invitation for a modern, vibrant, summer bridal shower. Bridesmaids planning an afternoon tea party theme and this invitation is simply perfect! Choosing the invitation was easy, deciding on the color was hard (all three are lovey!) This is my go to website for all event invites."

I just had a miscarriage on August 18th, and had to have a D&C to complete it on August 29th. I have to go back next week to check everything but I'm so anxious. I can't wait to get my period and start trying again. I keep reading different things though. Some things say theres no reason to wait, others say I should wait 2-3 months. I agree that if you stay positive and let nature take it's course , whatever is meant to be will be. I truly believe that you're only given as much as you can handle and that your body will carry a baby when it's ready. We'll all keep our fingers crossed for you that things remain healthy!posted 09/04/2007 by WeiserMom
I am so sorry for your lost. I also miscarried in april with twins and now I am pregnant again. I am prolly about 5 weeks and this is when things started going wrong last time.

I also had a miscarriage in June, and I am 5 weeks pregnant. We wanted to wait one more month before TTC, but that's not how it worked out. I had a doctor's appointment Monday, and they went ahead and did an u/s to check things out, because I was so worried. All is well so far, and they are doing another u/s next week to monitor my progress...so my advice is to get yourself to the doctor- it will make you feel better!posted 08/29/2007 by G8RAlexis

I just suffered a miscarriage August 18 and I pray I can be blessed with getting pregnant again very soon. I feel like it's the only thing that will ease my pain. I know I will be anxious and worried about losing the next one too, but I feel the risk is worth it. I lost my baby after 8 weeks. My heart goes out to those of you who've lost also. I wonder though, does the pain go away? Do we ever stop feeling bad? Even with a new baby? Does it lessen the pain?posted 08/27/2007 by sleepdriver

Hi. I am so sorry about your miscarriage. Congratulations on your new pregnancy. I also miscarried in June and have started TTC, my doctor told me there was no reason to wait and that the miscarriage should not effect the next pregnancy. He did however, tell me to make an appointment right away whenever I get a positive test! Best wishes for a happy and healthy pregnancy!posted 08/22/2007 by JAC22

Jason Bay Gets Holliday's Pay
Still hoping Matt Holliday doesn't re-sign with St. Louis, but Jason Bay's new 4-year deal with the Mets heavily increases the odds Holliday remains a Redbird. And that's trouble for the Cubs considering Holliday and Pujols combined for 60 HR and 190 RBI last year.
Little surprised Bay and Boston couldn't come to terms on a new deal. Bay was a good fit for the Red Sox last year, despite what anyone makes of his defense. And when you put up offensive numbers like he does, certain flaws can be overlooked, as was the case in Boston with Manny. Bay, of course, is no Manny at the dish, but he's no Manny in left field, either…he's far better, and less of a headache.

Weather conditions Thursday night hindered an investigation of a body found lying on a popular running path near a Colorado Springs elementary school.
A person found the body of a deceased man while walking on the trail behind Stetson Elementary School, near Peterson and Barnes.
Members of the Violent Crimes Homicide Unit responded to the scene just after 8 p.m., but do not believe there was anything suspicious about the man's death. However, the cold and icy conditions Thursday night hampered investigation efforts. An autopsy is currently pending.

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Sunday, March 10, 2013
GIBSON, Ga. (WRDW) -- At first, nothing seems to be missing from this church service: preacher, choir and members all sharing faith and Scripture, but there is something out of place -- the sanctuary.
Magnolia Baptist Church was hit by a tornado Tuesday night, but church members didn't let that stop them from having services on Sunday.
Pastor Michael Stewart has preached for a long time but never in a BBQ restaurant.
"We got His love and his care," said Stewart, as he perched from a mobile pulpit.
Charles Harper has been a member of the church for 61 years, and even though Sunday's service was at a place known for filling up the stomach, Harper says it was more about feeding the soul.
"It's the same thing. The people have the same feelings they get all the time," Harper said.
"I've been there my entire life," said Jennifer Landrum.
Landrum has been attending services for almost 40 years, and she says Sunday was proof that a church is more than just the building.
"I'm not used to walking in here on a Sunday morning, but when I came in and saw everyone ... and just the sermon itself just felt ... I felt the same kinship I've always felt," Landrum said.
While there maybe no steeple or roof on the church, Landrum says she is thanking God for one thing in particular.
"I was so thankful that no one was hurt," Landrum said.
It's going to take some time, money and hard work to open the doors again, but Landrum says this tragedy has taught her something.
"Fellowship comes without regards to materials thing," Landrum said.
The lesson learned here is that building doesn't make a church -- people make the church.
The church will continue cleanup efforts and determine where and when to begin building again. Church members say they need all the prayers they can get. If anyone can help with donations (materials or money), you can call the church at (706) 399-9999.

For nearly 20 years the idea of creating a 3.2 million-acre national park in the heart of Maine's northern woods has polarized communities, which depend on a forest-based economy alongside outdoor recreation tourism dollars and environmentalists who value conservation of wild places. But, with the paper industry struggling and a scaled back version of the park being proposed, the debate is being renewed. What's at stake and who's behind it? Find out in this special radio documentary.
MPBN News' Susan Sharon produced this half-hour radio documentary, which analyzes the plan put forth by philanthropist Roxanne Quimby to create a Maine Woods National Park. Park Place examines Quimby's intentions as well as the reasons behind the strong resistance and at how the woman who some still see as a "radical environmentalist" has been able to make converts of some of her most vocal critics.
The town of Millinocket is known as the Magic City because it was carved out of the woods by lumberjacks almost over night. For more than a hundred years, Millinocket and East Millinocket, affectionately known as "the town that paper made" hummed with the sounds of two paper mills that employed generations of residents and made the communities among the wealthiest in Maine.
But today, both mills are shuttered. The local unemployment rate stands at more than 20%. And residents are collectively holding their breath that a prospective new buyer, Cate Street Capital of New Hampshire will put them to work again.

"Away out here they got a name
For rain and wind and fire
The rain is Tess, the fire Joe,
And they call the wind Maria."
("They Call the Wind Maria" is from the 1951 Broadway musical comedy Paint Your Wagon, lyrics by Alan J. Lerner and music by Frederick Loewe.)
Some years ago the Pentagon used to be called "the Puzzle Palace." Then James Bamford wrote a book about the National Security Agency titled The Puzzle Palace and the term was preempted for the code-breaking entity (also known as "No Such Agency" in an earlier era). One can easily see how each connotation is distinctly apt: the NSA solves puzzles. The Pentagon is a puzzle.
One of the pieces of the current Pentagon puzzle is something called the United States Joint Forces Command. Never heard of it? Wonder what it does? Wonder no more. Here's the command's official description of its "mission and strategic goals":
The United States Joint Forces Command provides mission-ready joint-capable forces and supports the development and integration of joint, interagency, and multinational capabilities to meet the present and future operational needs of the joint force.
Clear on that? If this multisyllabic concatenation of jargon is an example of the kind of prose Bush the Lesser got from Strategic Genius Donald Rumsfeld's Pentagon, no wonder the Iraq adventure went bad.
A more sharply written product of the command is an intriguing document titled the Joint Operating Environment 2008, also known as JOE 2008. JOE is described as an "historically informed, forward-looking effort to discern most accurately the challenges we will face at the operational level of war, and to determine their inherent implications." It's a kind of road map of bad stuff that can happen military-wise through the 2030s. (You can download a pdf of the 51-page report here.)
Poor JOE 2008 got itself into an appendage wringer the moment it was released to the public last December, with this statement:
The rim of the great Asian continent is already home to five nuclear powers: China, India, Pakistan, North Korea, and Russia.
Uh-oh. Did someone say, "North Korea"? That put some nameless, faceless, but exceedingly honest bureaucrat's appendage right smack in the kimchi. See, the United States has vowed it will never accept North Korea as a nuclear power. JOE hit the fan and someone commanded the command to clarify things thusly:
The statement regarding North Korea does not reflect official U.S. government policy regarding the status of North Korea. The U.S. government has long said that we will never accept North Korea as a nuclear power. This clarification has been communicated to the embassy of the Republic of Korea.
Well, that certainly "clarifies" things. However, according to a report in The New York Times today, North Korea could have as many as six nuclear bombs. The matter thus seems to turn on what the meaning of "is" is. For more background on the Korea kerfuffle, see this Korea Times piece. But, because JOE 2008 was originally an internal document, a fair inference would seem to be that this is a case of truth colliding with diplomatic fiction.
JOE 2008 also made this sobering observation:
In terms of worst-case scenarios for the Joint Force and indeed the world, two large and important states bear consideration for a rapid and sudden collapse: Pakistan and Mexico.
The Mexican possibility may seem less likely, but the government, its politicians, police, and judicial infrastructure are all under sustained assault and pressure by criminal gangs and drug cartels. How that internal conflict turns out over the next several years will have a major impact on the stability of the Mexican state. Any descent by Mexico into chaos would demand an American response based on the serious implications for homeland security alone.
A serious impediment to growth in Latin America remains the power of criminal gangs and drug cartels to corrupt, distort, and damage the region's potential. The fact that criminal organizations and cartels are capable of building dozens of disposable submarines in the jungle and then using them to smuggle cocaine, indicates the enormous economic scale of this activity. This poses a real threat to the national security interests of the Western Hemisphere. In particular, the growing assault by the drug cartels and their thugs on the Mexican government over the past several years reminds one that an unstable Mexico could represent a homeland security problem of immense proportions to the United States.
As observed elsewhere on Fairly Civil, Mexico is indeed in an exceedingly violent existential struggle with drug trafficking organizations, largely armed by smugglers who easily acquire their military-style killing machines — including semiautomatic assault rifles, Barrett 50 caliber anti-armor sniper rifles, and "vest-busting" handguns like the FN FiveSeven — on the wide-open U.S. civilian firearms market. Latino street gangs — like the 18th Street gang and MS-13 — are increasingly involved in the traffic of both drugs and guns, as described in detail in my forthcoming book from the University of Michigan Press, No Boundaries: Transnational Latino Gangs and American Law Enforcement (Spring 2009).
A failed Pakistan is truly scary (what happens to its 50 nukes?). But a truly failed Mexico — JOE 2008 does not predict such a result, but merely observes this could happen — would put all kinds of evil right across the border.
Putting aside the sensitive and imponderable question of the likelihood of a collapse, what seems to have grabbed the attention of Mexican authorities is the JOE's reference to "an American response." Alarm bells were quite fairly raised, given the history of U.S. incursions into Mexico, particularly the ripping off of a huge chunk of Mexican territory in the name of Anglo-Saxon "Manifest Destiny" in the so-called Mexican American War. (This sordid history is also laid out in No Boundaries.) Mexican officials read the JOE 2008 report as suggesting armed U.S. intervention might be necessary. Secretary of Governance Fernando Gomez Mont tartly rejected that idea in an interview with CNN in which he declared "inadmissible" the suggestion of United States intervention.
But what could the implications of a failed Mexico be for the United States? The answer would obviously depend on the definition of failed state. (For definition go here, and for Foreign Policy Magazine's index of failed states, go here.) Among the principal attributes of a failed state are "loss of physical control of its territory or a monopoly on the legitimate use of force; erosion of legitimate authority to make collective decisions; an inability to provide reasonable public services; and the inability to interact with other states as a full member of the international community." Here are a few impacts one can extrapolate from this definition and the JOE 2008 report.
1. North-bound immigration would be increased by hordes fleeing disorder. This happened during the Mexican Revolution in the early 1900s and the wars in Central America in the 1980-1990s. It has also been reported that some Mexicans in the United States illegally are already deciding to stay here — in spite of pressure from toughened immigration enforcement — because they fear the violence in Mexico more than they fear ICE's raids.
2. The illegitimate use of force, failure to provide public services, and co-option of national decision-making would spread throughout the region and exacerbate existing economic distress. This would impel even more migrant flight. For one example of the spread of Mexican DTO violence in the region, see this CNN report from Guatemala.
3. This increased immigration would add more pressure to the challenge of Latino assimilation in the United States. The JOE 2008 report addresses this issue under the rubric of "Trends Influencing the World's Security":
By the 2030s the U.S. population will climb by more than 50 million to a total of approximately 355 million. This growth will result not only from births in current American families, but also from continued immigration, especially from Mexico and the Caribbean, which will lead to major increases in America's Hispanic population. By 2030 at least 15% of the population of every state will be Hispanic in origin, in some states reaching upwards of 50%. How effective Americans prove in assimilating these new immigrants into the nation's politics and culture will play a major role in America's prospects. In this regard, the historical ability of the United States to assimilate immigrants into its society and culture gives it a distinct advantage over most other nations, who display little willingness to incorporate immigrant populations into the mainstream of their societies.
4. Intra-Mexican violence would spread to the territory of the United States. Violence by the Mexican drug traffickers is reported to have already come to the United States (mostly in the form of internal warfare, settling unpaid debts, etc.) But first-generation ethnic groups have always stayed in touch with political developments in their home countries, and some minority of such groups has often inflicted violence on factional rivals in the United States. Moreover, the United States has often served as a home base for exiled opponents of one or another Latin American state, launching clandestine operations from U.S. soil.
5. The proximity of the United States to uncontrolled Mexican territory (no man's, or if you prefer, no woman's land) would invite the establishment of clandestine bases and training grounds by terrorist and other armed groups wishing to do violent ill to the United States or its interests in the region. JOE 2008 makes an elegant point one can relate to this possibility, which is the ability of small, informally organized, but extraordinarily violent groups to take advantage of technology:
One does not need a militia to wreak havoc. Pervasive information, combined with lower costs for many advanced technologies, has already resulted in individuals and small groups possessing increased ability to cause significant damage and slaughter. Time and distance constraints are no longer in play. Such groups employ niche technologies capable of attacking key systems and providing inexpensive countermeasures to costly systems. Because of their small size, such groups of the "super-empowered" can plan, execute, receive feedback, and modify their actions, all with considerable agility and synchronization. Their capacity to cause serious damage is out of all proportion to their size and resources.
6. The supply of illegal drugs would explode. Freed of even minimal existing enforcement restraints in Mexico, traffickers would be free to concentrate on building and strengthening their ties and conduits with Latino (and other) gangs inside the United States.

The Power of Independent Thinking
Eminent Domain: Abuse of Government Power?
Recorded: Tuesday, January 31, 2006
In June 2005, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Kelo v. New London that local governments may force property owners to sell out and to make way for private economic development, even if the property is not blighted. In response, many states have passed legislation and proposed amendments to their state constitutions to block this unprecedented government assault on the rights of property owners.

The winner of this year's Redds Miss Tanzania will not contest for 2012 Miss World title.
Miss Tanzania co-ordinator Hashim Lundenga said yesterday the queen would instead represent the country at the next year's event.
Lundenga said the move was caused by the Miss World organisers who had shifted its finals from December to August.
"Because of the Miss World calendar change, we have noticed that Miss Tanzania 2012 winner will not beat the deadline. It means that Miss World will be held before we get our winner who we always get August or September," he said, adding that Miss World contestants will be required to report in China by July.
He said the change of the was reached at a Miss World organizing committee meeting in London last year. Genevieve Mpangala represented the country at the London contest.
Lundenga said they would, therefore, stage a mini Miss Tanzania contest in May to get a queen who will represent the country at the contest set for August in China.
He said his committee would do scouting to get 10 aspirants who would vie for the final slated for May.
"This will be another chance for previous Miss Tanzania aspirants to try their luck," Lundenga added.
Meanwhile, Lundenga said Miss Tanzania 2013 agents will be named next week.
He said that they will go a special seminar in Dar es Salaam before the end of this month.
Tanzania has never performed well in the Miss World. Only Nancy Sumary won Miss World Africa in 2005.

It depends on the difference in level. I always leveled up when I managed to win against an opponent whose level is more than twice mine.
I think the experience gained for lossing should be 1/3rd of what the winner gained.

AIKEN, S.C. (WRDW) -- Aiken County Democrat Probate Judge Sue Roe would rather not run as a Democrat in the future.
On Monday night, during the Aiken Legislative Delegation meeting, she asked lawmakers to consider proposing legislation that would make the office of probate judge non-political in all counties throughout the state.
Roe, who's served as Aiken County's probate judge since 1984, faced a tough Republican challenger in November, realtor and outspoken political activist Jane Page Thompson.
"I decided early on that I was not going to allow her to demean my person dignity or the dignity of the Aiken County Probate Court," Judge Roe said of Thompson, back in November.
On Election Day, Roe drew on Democrat and Republican support. She defeated Thompson by about 7,000 votes.
On Monday, Rep. Bill Clyburn, D-Aiken, said he would support the legislation to make the office non-political.
Roe said she understands it will be a tough fight, since politics are ingrained in the system now.

African Queen Model Ship
In 1935 British author C.S. Forester released his Masterpiece The African Queen. It tells the story of two missionaries who fall in love and use the only thing they have, their boat, The African Queen, to defeat the Germans who are occupying Africa during World War I. The novel was met with such acclaim that two of the world's most famous actors, Humphrey Bogart and Katherine Hepburn made it into a movie in 1951. Like the book, The African Queen the movie had wild success in American and British box offices. The movie was so highly regarded that it led to Bogart winning the Academy Award for Best Actor, his first and only Oscar. Furthermore, the success of the movie and the famous African Queen ship, were selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry.
Ship from The African Queen Movie
Make the American classic movie, The African Queen, come alive by owing an exact replica model ship by Handcrafted Model Ships. Die hard classic movie buffs know the African Queen as the ship where the entire plot of the movie unfolds. It is where Humphrey Bogart plays weathered boat captain Charlie Allnut, and Katherine Hepburn stars as the beautiful, yet determined, missionary Rose Sayer. So loved is the African Queen Ship that the original boat still exists today and is docked in Key Largo, Florida. And furthermore, The African Queen is officially listed on the United States National Register of Historic Places. Obviously, incorporating a model ship of such historical and cinematic significance into your home collection is not an opportunity to be missed.
Creating The Best African Queen Replica
There is a reason why serious model ship collectors are consistently choosing to add the Handcrafted Model Ship (HMS) version of the African Queen to their personal collections. For starters, movie lovers and model ship enthusiasts alike have a desire for perfection. They are simply not satisfied with a toy ship that contains the words "African Queen" printed on the box. No, they demand detail and craftsmanship. The replica of The African Queen delivers on both fronts. The HMS version looks exactly as the boat from the movie does; everything from the hull shape, to the British flag flying high atop the mast of the ship. Furthermore, the boat is wooden like the real African Queen ship, and sports the African Queen name written on the starboard side of the bow. Also, to stay true to the movie and the original African Queen ship, the oxygen tanks that were used to make the ship into a torpedo and defeat the Germans are also included in the HMS African Queen Model. Needless to say, no detail was over looked, and the African Queen replica is sure to please the even the most demanding of fans.
The African Queen Boat Model Makes A Special Addition To Any Collection
No model ship collector or movie fan should be without the African Queen model ship. It brings together a timeless American classic movie with excellence in model shipbuilding that only Handcrafted Model Ships provides. As our customers already know, ordering is a cinch, and the African Queen will arrive at your door fully assembled and ready to be displayed. Order today and own a piece of cinematic and nautical history.

BOX OFFICE Based on the Bible or not, Noah was a big draw for moviegoers this past weekend, dominating the box office with a $43.7 million debut, the fourth highest of 2014. The movie was not only a coup for Paramount, but for title star Russell Crowe and director Darren Aronofsky: Noah is the highest opening ever for a Crowe-led movie and it earned more than Aronofsky's first movie movies put together!
Divergent took second, adding $25.6 million to its total, which nears the $100 million mark. Divergent actually had more staying power than similar YA movies, dropping 53% in week two versus, e.g., The Hunger Games, which dropped 62% in its second week in theaters. Muppets Most Wanted took third with $11.3 million, while Mr. Peabody & Sherman came in fourth with $9 million. Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which opens this week in the States, opened internationally to an impressive $75.2 million.
CHRONICLES The 2012 sleeper hit that deconstructed superheroes and propelled director Josh Trank to the big leagues, Chronicle, is finally getting that long-talked-about sequel. According to Deadline, Fox has hired as-yet-unproduced screenwriter Jack Stanley to pen the sequel. The 25-year-old writer is not a complete unknown, having penned two screenplays that made the Black List, the annual survey of unproduced screenplays: Sweetheart, about a female assassin attending her high school reunion that may yet be produced; and Silver, a werewolf thriller that is supposedly still making the rounds in Hollywood.
TOP GUN 2 For nearly 30 years, producer Jerry Bruckheimer has been trying — and failing — to come up with a sequel story worthy of the original Top Gun. Apparently, Tom Cruise also tried to come up with a sequel idea, but failed. Finally, original director Tony Scott came up with a story that had everyone involved excited and the plan was to go into production back in 2012. Then, tragically, Scott died and the movie was shelved. According to Bruckheimer in a recent interview with The Huffington Post, Top Gun 2 is still a "go," just as soon as Cruise's schedule frees him up to shoot the movie. We loved the original, but couldn't think of a single reason to revisit the premise until Bruckheimer spilled the plot: "The concept is, basically, are the pilots obsolete because of drones. Cruise is going to show them that they're not obsolete. They're here to stay."
PASSING THE TORCH Chris Evans will probably forever be associated with the role of Captain America, but the first time he played a superhero on the big screen he was far more goofy and fiery and far less stoic and star spangle-y. Evans has often spoken of his disappointment with the way the original Fantastic Four movies turned out — he almost turned down the Cap role because of them — but he recently admitted to The Daily News that he feels a little "precious over the role" of Johnny Storm, a.k.a. the Human Torch. Despite this, Evans had nothing but nice things to say about his successor in the role, Michael B. Jordan (Chronicle, who will portray the classic Marvel character in Josh Trank's new movie, calling him a "phenomenal" actor.
I couldn't even give that guy any advice if I wanted, that guy is so good. ... It's exciting to see what he's going to do, because I know he's going to reinvent it in a way that I could never have imagined.
Evans went on to say that he feels that he is "connected with" Jordan now because of the character and that it's "a nice feeling."
SIN CITY 2 For those of us who loved the original Sin City and how faithful director Robert Rodriguez was to visionary comic book creator Frank Miller's original comic books, the nine-year wait for the sequel-prequel has been excruciating. We finally got our first look at Sin City: A Dame to Kill For last month when the trailer debuted, and now we have a chance to check out some of the major players in a series of new stills from the movie, including Eva Green as the Dame, Jamie Chung as Miho (replacing Devon Aoki) and Dennis Haysbert as Manute (replacing the late Michael Clarke Duncan).

Birth Place: London, England, GB
Matthew Vaughn was born in Beverly Hills, CA on March 7, 1971 to actress Kathy Ceaton. For years, he was led to believe that his father was actor Robert Vaughn, star of the espionage series "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." (NBC, 1964-68). The assertion, which Robert Vaughn had always denied, was proven false decades later through legally binding paternity tests, at which time Ceaton admitted that Matthew's father was actually George De Vere Drummond, an English aristocrat. As an adult, Vaughn would later adopt the name Matthew De Vere Drummond for business purposes. Raised in the U.K. from an early age, Vaughn was educated at Stowe School in Buckingham, England.

MARIETTA, Ga. -- Authorities have identified the driver of a car that was killed Friday evening in a chain reaction crash that happened at the intersection of Cobb Parkway and Akers Mill Road.
Cobb Police Sergeant Dana Pierce said 59-year-old Warrren Thomas of Atlanta was deceased upon arrival at Wellstar Kennestone Hospital.
Investigators believe that Thomas may have experienced some type of medical distress, which caused the crash. Officers said Thomas' Chevrolet entered the intersection on a red light and was struck by a Mitsubishi Montero, which was southbound on Cobb Parkway. The Chevrolet continued in an easterly direction and was struck a second time by a Toyota Camry.
One occupant of the Toyota had very minor injuries, and the driver of the Mitsubishi was transported to a hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.
Police said the investigation of the crash continues and anyone with information about it is asked to call (770) 499-3987.

- The Print
- The Artist
William Morris (1834 – 1896), one of the principal figures of the British arts and crafts movement, was renowned for his wallpaper designs and ornate fabrics. Morris founded Morris & Company, a respected Victorian design company which produced textiles, exquisite stained glass and high-quality, painstakingly detailed tapestries. During the mid-19th century, tapestries had become lifeless, mass-produced items that Morris rejuvenated with uniqueness, creativity and character. He had a loom installed in his bedroom and taught himself to weave, so he could create the tapestries he envisioned. Creating over 150 elaborate tapestry patterns, Morris' work remains a pinnacle of technique and craftsmanship.

A hole between the two ventricles is usually also present. As a result, unoxygenated and oxygenated blood mix completely. This causes too much blood to be sent to the lungs and not enough oxygentated blood to get to the heart and the rest of the body.

Pancakes are a pain in the ass to make, but not any more with Batter Blaster. Just spray this organic pancake goo onto a hot skillet and your steamy breakfast is just a couple of minutes away, bacon not included. If you don't mind using
Cheez Whiz Easy Cheese in its spray can, this looks like just about the same concept except it's pancake slime instead of orange cheesy crud. One problem we see right away, though, is there are just eight servings per can. You know how that goes with serving numbers on packages—if it says the package will serve 8, that's only true if seven people aren't eating. For an even easier battered breakfast experience, you could just skip all this canned goodness and pop a couple of Eggos in the toaster. [Batter Blaster, via Strange New Products]

Where are we in the long and bruising fight against malaria? That is the question many of us will be asking today as we mark World Malaria Day.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) which instituted the day in 2007 as a way of keeping track of the scourge, says the world is today at a decisive juncture.
"Whether the malaria map will keep shrinking, as it has in the past decade, or be reclaimed by the malaria parasites, depends, to a great extent, on the resources that will be invested in control efforts over the next years," says the organisation.
It is about: "Sustain Gains, Save Lives: Invest in Malaria", a theme aimed at ensuring that the world maintains the tempo in the fight against the killer disease to its logical conclusion.
For the fight is directly linked to the global effort for development as WHO points out: "Sustaining malaria control efforts is an investment in development.
Continued investment in malaria control now will propel malaria-endemic countries toward near-zero deaths by 2015 and achieving the Millennium Development Goals, especially those relating to improving child survival and maternal health, eradicating extreme poverty and expanding access to education."
Not so many of us see the direct link between the current lack of development and the disease. Yet it is there amply for all to see.
You only need to calculate the time malaria afflicted people stay out of work, in hospital and the resources needed to nurse them back to health, not to mention those spent on children, school days missed, etc.
It is thus not only about saving the resources that currently go into taking care of those afflicted by the disease. It is about the potential for development that a malaria-free, healthy, productive society generates. It is about a drastic cut in aid and no doubt debt for the currently poor countries.
We must not only jealously guard the gains made in the last few years, but build further on them. According to the WHO, in Africa, malaria deaths have been cut by one third within the last decade while outside of Africa, 35 out of the 53 countries, affected by the disease have reduced cases by 50% in the same time period.
In countries where access to malaria control interventions has improved most significantly, overall child mortality rates have fallen by approximately 20%.
These are encouraging results. However they can very easily be reversed, especially for the poor countries, if there is a shift in priorities, a likely scenario as donor countries grapple with debt-related issues.
It is our expectation that despite the current economic climate, donors will see the logic of ensuring aid keeps flowing to national malaria control programmes to ensure widespread population access to life-saving and cost-effective interventions.
As per WHO call, every suspected malaria case must be tested, every confirmed case treated with a quality-assured anti-malarial medicine, and that the disease is tracked through timely and accurate surveillance systems to guide policy and operational decisions.
Only in this way can we keep the scourge on retreat and expect to reap the development benefits that come with its defeat.

When you buy a mask for your costume, you want to make sure you are getting the real deal. Too many sites sell you imitations of the items you actually want, and although you save some money, your savings are at the cost of the quality of the product. Avoid imitations and check out our amazing collection of licensed masks to enhance your outfit for your next Halloween event or theme party.

The beauty of purchasing an officially licensed product is that you know it is the real thing. After all, you can't spell "limitation" without "imitation." And when you buy imitation costumes and masks, that is all you are really doing – limiting yourself. Officially licensed outfits and accessories make you look more like the actual character in the television program, movie, or video game. What's the point of dressing up as your favorite character if you aren't going to actually look like your favorite character? If people have to keep asking you what your costume is, then you know you haven't chosen the right outfit for the occasion.
Make sure everybody knows who your favorite character is when you assume his or her identity at your next dress-up event. If your costume is realistic enough, people might not even recognize that it's you. Then you can really get into the role and act like the character until somebody figures out your secret identity. Costumes are much more fun when you can fully get into the role and adopt the personality and mannerisms of the character.

DENVER- What the Nuggets do best is what the Lakers do the worst. They run.
Denver outscored Los Angeles 33-3 in fast break points Monday night. A missed shot, turned defensive rebound into a smooth outlet pass and then in a blur they were on their way, right on past the flat-footed Lakers defense.
"They just took off," said Lakers head coach Mike D'Antoni after the Nuggets 119-108 win.
Their advantage, the tempo, put Los Angeles literally on their heels all night. Pushing the pace is a George Karl and Denver specialty especially when their biggest player on the floor is small forward Kenneth Faried. They earned easy shots, including 78 points in the paint and 16 coming by way of the free throw line.
"That team is like a track team," said Lakers guard Kobe Bryant who scored 29 points on 12-of-23 shooting.
"Anytime we play the Lakers, it's going to be a speed versus size game," said Nuggets head coach George Karl. "They were trying to play fast but I don't think they play as fast as we want to play. I thought the guys had that extra engine."
Denver was aided by the fact that the Lakers were in action the night prior.
The bipartisan crowd, nearly split in allegiances but uniform in hues of blue and yellow, quickly turned in favor of the Nuggets. A special Jack Nicholson, South Park edition, video tribute riled up the fans before tipoff. Cartman, in his signature Nuggets jersey, threw his cartoon basketball and knocked the Lakers fan out off the jumbotron.
"We had the energy on our side," Karl said.
Denver led by six points after the opening quarter and then extended the margin to thirteen by halftime. The crowd, festering with the anticipation of the "huge" victory, as guard Ty Lawson called it, exploded late in the third quarter. After Andre Iguodala's monstrous dunk to put the Nuggets up by 18 the entirety of the crowd knew the game was all but over.

A former teacher has been arrested and charged with multiple counts of sexual assault on a child.
According to the El Paso County Sheriff's Office, administrators at the Calhan School uncovered relationships between 27-year-old Amanda Rowles and two male students during the 2011-2012 school year. Rowles moved to the Denver metro area the following year.
Rowles was arrested in Aurora Thursday. She was booked in the Aurora City Jail on a $50,000 bond. The jail says she bonded out that same night.
The former teacher now faces two counts of sexual assault on a child by one in a position of trust, and two counts of sexual assault on a child/pattern of abuse. Court records indicate the victims were 17 at the time.

BioShock Infinite (Credit: 2K Games/Irrational Games)
But don't tell that to game design auteur Ken Levine and his team at Boston-based Irrational Games, because they're not really listening.
Instead, they've been working on making BioShock Infinite, releasing Tuesday for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC, as good a video game as humanly possible. For well over four years they've been at it, hoping that time and a budget of over $100 million yields a title that compares favorably to the groundbreaking 2007 shooter BioShock -- something the first sequel, the underwhelming BioShock 2 (crafted by a totally different team), couldn't quite manage.
It certainly isn't an easy task. Levine recently admitted as much, telling the New York Times that "it's getting harder to ask someone to spend $60 on something that's merely a good effort," and that it has to be "different and really special."
As it turns out, that adequately describes BioShock Infinite. Reviews are slowly rolling in, and they're as lofty as the flying city in which the game is set. Currently averaging a hefty 95 on Metacritic, it's the highest-scoring video game in ages and the early frontrunner for Game of the Year.
"Infinite is more than a new setting, story, and characters; those elements are seamlessly integrated with complex themes, a mysterious plot, and entertaining combat to create an amazing experience from beginning to end," gushes Game Informer's Joe Juba in a 10/10 review. His favorite aspect is the game's storytelling, which culminates with "one of my favorite game endings in years."
The game is set in an alternate version of 1912 in the flying city of Columbia. Players take on the role of Booker DeWitt, a former detective tasked with rescuing a teenage girl from the floating metropolis. Things quickly spiral out of control, of course, lending the game – and its world – some much needed weight. Where the original BioShock riffed on Ayn Rand's visions of Objectivism, Infinite references America's complicated relationship with racism, religion and empire-building.
"The world that Irrational has built is one of BioShock Infinite's greatest assets," asserts Polygon's Arthur Gies while doling out another perfect score, adding that the game "lives up to the promise of its legacy."
Destructoid's Jim Sterling agrees, particularly when it comes to the game's co-star, Elizabeth. Compared to the often brain-dead helper bees in most video games, she's a veritable Einstein.
"Elizabeth's uses as an ally are extensive and go toward making her more than just a stereotypical rescue prospect," he writes. "She becomes an impeccable example of how gameplay can be used to further the narrative. She is as crucial to the player as she is to the story, and both aspects of the character work together in harmonious synchronization." His score? Yet another 10/10.
A scan of other sites yields the kind of praise usually reserved for Oscar-winners. There's USA Today, ("spectacular"), The Toronto Sun ("boundlessly rewarding"), The Telegraph ("arguably peerless"), The Escapist ("breathtaking") and Joystiq ("simply cannot be missed"), to name a few. And though a handful of sites stray from such adoration, it's pretty clear that anyone with a pulse and a console or gaming PC should drop everything and give it a whirl. Shocking? Not remotely.

Designer Walter Baker, who helms a namesake line and W118 by Walter Baker, spends his weekdays working like a maniac. His weekends? Well, they're spent working out like a maniac. For reals. But his downtime's not all about the treadmill and the tennis court. "For Thanksgiving I go to my house in the south of Florida," Walter tells Rue. "I like to be by the pool when it's cold in NYC. That's what I'm thankful for: some time to relax!" As for the rest of his weekend…
I wake up at 3AM every day – the weekends are no different – at my house in NYC. After I wake up I answer the hundreds of emails I have to go through, then go to the gym at 5AM and read WWD while I'm on the treadmill. I think I'm the only guy who's reading WWD at the gym. Then I go to Battery Place Market and get a croissant, which I only have on the weekends. At home, my wife, Agnes, makes me a cappuccino in our Nespresso® machine. I'm obsessed. By 8AM I'm on the tennis court playing indoor singles for two hours.
In the afternoon I go shopping with Agnes. I like to go to Soho or the Upper East Side, always dressed head to toe in Rick Owens, black on black. I like checking out the stores to see what women are wearing and feeling out the vibe in NYC, and seeing my line in some of the best stores in NYC. Interacting with my customers is just a really awesome experience. Saturday nights I have dinner in the Village at Il Mulino. I have a standing reservation for every Saturday at 10PM for six people. It's always a good time and the food is the best.
Sunday is basically rinse and repeat. I go to the gym but don't play tennis, then watch sports in the afternoon and order in dinner.

Dr. Rajiv Shah led the efforts of nearly 10,000 staff in more than 70 countries around the world to advance USAID's mission of ending extreme poverty and promoting resilient, democratic societies.
Under Dr. Shah's leadership, USAID applied innovative technologies and engaged the private sector to solve the world's most intractable development challenges. This new model of development brings together an increasingly diverse community—from large companies to local civil society groups to communities of faith—to deliver meaningful results.
Dr. Shah led President Obama's landmark Feed the Future and Power Africa initiatives and has refocused America's global health partnerships to end preventable child death. Feed the Future, alone, has improved nutrition for 12 million children and empowered more than 7 million farmers with climate-smart tools they need to grow their way out of extreme poverty. In April 2014, USAID launched the U.S. Global Development Lab to harness the expertise of the world's brightest scientists, students, and entrepreneurs. At the same time, the newly formed Private Capital Group for Development forges a more strategic relationship between private capital and development.
Dr. Shah also managed the U.S. Government's humanitarian response to catastrophic crises around the world, from the devastating 2010 Haiti earthquake to Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines to the Ebola epidemic in West Africa.
Through an extensive set of reforms called "USAID Forward," Dr. Shah worked with the United States Congress to transform USAID into the world's premier development Agency that prioritizes public-private partnerships, innovation, and meaningful results. He currently serves on the boards of the Overseas Private Investment Corporation and the Millennium Challenge Corporation, as well as participates on the National Security Council.
Previously, Dr. Shah served as Undersecretary and Chief Scientist in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, where he created the National Institute for Food and Agriculture. Prior to joining the Obama Administration, he spent eight years at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, where he led efforts in global health, agriculture, and financial services, including the creation of the International Finance Facility for Immunization.
He is a graduate of the University of Michigan, the University of Pennsylvania Medical School, and the Wharton School of Business. He regularly appears in the media and has delivered keynote addresses before the U.S. Military Academy, the National Prayer Breakfast, and diverse audiences across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Dr. Shah was awarded the Distinguished Service Award by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. He has served as a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader, been named to Fortune's 40 Under 40, and has received multiple honorary degrees.
He lives in Washington, D.C. with his wife Shivam Mallick Shah and three children and has given up mountain climbing for family bicycle rides.
The global goal of eliminating trachoma by 2020 is a major piece in ending preventable blindness and suffering by millions throughout the world. Recently, we have seen significant progress toward the goal. From 2011 to 2013, the number of people at risk of developing Trachoma has been reduced from 314 million to 229 million. Host governments in endemic countries, donors, the World Health Organization, pharmaceutical companies, and others have shown a deep commitment to ending the neglect and eliminating trachoma.
One of the reasons veteran owned small businesses make such great partners for USAID, and for the government more broadly, is that we share a key motivation: service to country. Everything we do at USAID is done on behalf of the American people. In addition to strengthening the United States' position as a global leader, our efforts to end extreme poverty and promote resilient, democratic societies help enhance our own security and prosperity here at home.
The U.S. Government is proud to be the single largest donor on the Thai-Burma border. By supporting the technical, institutional, leadership and advocacy capacities of community organizations, USAID has helped to increase access to critical health care, education, food security and protection for displaced people in conflict-affected areas in the South East part of the country and in the border provinces and refugee camps of Thailand.
Going forward, we must continue to build on decades of U.S. leadership in global food security, and solidify our efforts to make lasting progress against hunger, poverty and malnutrition. Together, all the U.S. Government agencies and Feed the Future partners, including all of you here today, can help ensure everyone has the nutritious food they need to lead full, healthy lives.
I commend the County Government and the parents and students of Ama Primary School for your commitment to improving learning.
Last year's landmark ratification of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities demonstrated Vietnam's commitment to respecting rights, embracing the value of diversity, and promoting equal opportunities. It added a potentially important new dimension to our cooperation that is also at the core of USAID's broader strategy for development cooperation, which is the emphasis on inclusion.
Sự kiện năm ngoái Việt Nam phê chuẩn Công ước của Liên Hợp Quốc về Quyền của Người khuyết tật đã đánh dấu một bước ngoặt và thể hiện cam kết của Việt Nam về vấn đề tôn trọng các quyền, bảo vệ giá trị của sự đa dạng và thúc đẩy các cơ hội bình đẳng. Sự kiện này bổ sung một phương diện mới và quan trọng trong hợp tác của chúng ta đồng thời cũng là cốt lõi trong chiến lớn hơn của USAID về hợp tác phát triển với trọng tâm hướng vào sự hòa nhập.
With Australia, the United States has enjoyed a strong friendship and partnership for 75 years. Throughout Asia, we are proud to work with the Australians on issues of mutual interest, including
I'd like to welcome you all to USAID's regional training facility. And thanks to the Rockefeller Foundation for partnering with us on this important event. Since Jan 2014, "resilience" has been part of USAID's core mission as we look to partner to end extreme poverty. And I believe resilience is here to stay as a key analytic, programming and organizing concept for our development investments for years to come.

Imagine that fringe waving in the wind as you rock out to your favorite country songs at the Hometown Throwdown next weekend. These tops are all at Plato's Closet in Bellingham. Don't forget to pick up a fun jacket to pair it with just in case the dreaded June Gloom drops some rain on us.
There's plenty locations in our area with tons of great finds at each store. Get the most up-to-date info about Bellingham's outfits or Plato's fashion finds on Facebook. Follow them on Twitter and Instagram, too!
