Select A Dinosaur Type Below To Begin
Titanosaurus was first discovered and named in 1870 in India. What we know about this dinosaur is based on just a few fossils. It was not until 1996 that a good skull specimen was discovered by Ruben Martinez.
This skull showed that Titanosaurus had a long narrow head, with small evenly spaced teeth similar to a garden rake.
It is believed that Titanosaurus may have had a number of spike-like lumps, and a line of dragon-like spines.

Arsene Wenger's attempts to spend money have once again been thwarted after the holding midfielder opted against a move to the Gunners to continue his career in the BundesligaWolfsburg have announced on their official website that they have secured the services of Luiz Gustavo from Bayern Munich for an undisclosed fee, beating Arsenal to the signature of the Brazil international.
|Arsenal are 17/2 with bet365 to beat Aston Villa 3-0
Arsenal had a £17.2 million bid accepted for the Brazilian earlier this week, but he has elected to stay in Germany and move to the Volkswagen arena.
Gustavo had fallen out of favour in Bavaria following the arrival of Pep Guardiola, who brought in Thiago Alcantara to complete a midfield already brimming with talent.
Bastian Schweinsteiger, Javi Martinez, Toni Kroos and Xherdan Shaqiri were already vying for central roles at the Allianz Arena.
Gustavo joined Bayern from Hoffenheim in January 2011, making over 60 Bundesliga appearances for die Roten and winning the treble in 2012-13.
The Brazilian midfielder joins compatriots Naldo, Diego and Felipe Lopes at Wolfsburg.

About Me
Please read my entire profile ,thanx
I believe I am an artist not simply a photographer,as I have worked in the music and entertainment industry most of my life as a technician and designer of stage lighting for concerts and tv.I try to be very creative with using certain sets and looks along with shoot angles and only the best models to create unique art together with
I create a mood with the model being a part of
the entire scene.
My work is mainly Glamour/Lingerie, Boudoir
and Swimsuit Poster type pin up style images.
I am a true Pisces, naturally artistic and creative.
I have a passion for music,art and just being creative
I usually only shoot with models one on one and have many model tags and referances here. I do not allow anyone else on the set for a shoot.
This does require nudity,I feel I should not even have to say this,but I cannot paint over a bikini or thong,your face will not be in the images.Much like a living statue.
I prefer models do their own hair and makeup as I
prefer a more natural look.
Trade for cd photoshoot: I do limited TFCD photoshoots
,If we do a trade for cd photoshoot,you will recieve a
cd of 5 photoshop edited and resized images for your
own use ether on a cd or emiled to you within a week
of our shoot.Unless we discussed something different.
When travelling I am usually set up shooting in a nice hotel suite for boudoir lingerie and other implied or nude images
outside of course for bikini beach images
I have many references on MM I have been here
since 2005 and had a portfolio on ONE MODEL PLACE
from 2003-till Jan 2010

The Autograph Man
"You're not prepared for this. Nobody ever is," says Jim Ashworth, standing on the steps of his tiny St. Paul home. Inside, the cramped entryway bursts with wall hangings, including vintage sheet music, paintings of the racehorse Dan Patch, a life insurance form signed by Jimmy Durante, a photo signed by Amos and Andy, and an album signed by songwriter Sondra Lerche.
"Interesting guy. I met him at the [Electric] Fetus," says Ashworth, a 64-year-old retired teacher and lifelong St. Paul resident. "Over a year later I met him at the Fine Line. He looked at me and said, 'I remember you from the record store.' Mark Mallman did the same thing: 'I remember you! Taste of Minnesota!'"
He's hard to forget. Ashworth can routinely be spotted in the shadows of clubs--a balding, gray-haired man walking amongst the hipsters with a Sharpee in one hand, a record bag in the other, and a single-minded determination on his face. He has been collecting autographs since he was a teenager, when his letters to Mae West and Groucho Marx extracted signed photos. That act turned into a hobby, which is now a collection, which now numbers in the thousands.
You don't have to look hard to find memorabilia from hockey, baseball, and the Titanic, but his home is dominated by rock. His favorite band of all time is Sweet, and his favorites of the moment are the Redwalls and the Kaiser Chiefs ("not only are they very good, but they're very nice"). Stuffed alongside myriad signed artifacts by the Rolling Stones, the Who, the Doors, David Bowie, and you-name-it, are locals Flamingo, Johnny Lang, the Suicide Commandos, the Suburbs, Soul Asylum, Plastic Constellations, and his current fixation, Melodious Owl.
The house of Ashworth may be the only place on the planet where countless "To Jim"s and "your friend, Floyd Patterson" dance with the ink stains of Rivers Phoenix, Bob Dylan, Kurt Cobain, Ray and Dave Davies, Garrison Keillor, the Partridge Family, the Clash, Sammy Hagar, Lucille Ball, Joe Louis, Salvador Dali, Marc Bolan, Siouxie and the Banshees, Amelia Earhart, John Philip Sousa, Patti Smith, Sylvain Sylvain, and the Hives.
"The main thing is, if you get 'em in person, you get to know 'em a little bit and visit with them," says Ashworth, his eyes winking through wire-rim specs. His slight frame swims in a Doors T-shirt, offset by a crucifix hanging around his neck. "Even if you buy them, it's a connection with these people."
Aerosmith, Hanson, Joan Baez, the Troggs, Robert Plant, Bill Murray, the Knack, Foghat, Freddie Mercury, the Marx Brothers, Leon Durham, the Boomtown Rats, Ray Bolger, KISS, Hayley Mills, Ike Reilly, the Raveonettes, Josh Hartnett, Ruth Gordon and Bud Cort ("my favorite movie is Harold and Maude"), George Burns, Norman Rockwell, Milton Berle, Roy Rogers, Gentleman Jim Corbett, Cheap Trick, Savoy Brown, Michael Jackson, Bo Diddley, George Gershwin, Lew Alcindor, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and James Dean.
"I'm like a sponge," he says. "I just absorb. I don't sell anything. Some people who collect cars, they buy one and sell another one. But when things come here, they stay here. A lot of people don't understand why you'd want four or five albums signed by the same person, but to me, it's art. An artist can draw four or five different pictures and sign them all, but they're all different because they're different pictures."
"These are probably the most beautiful signatures I have," he says, holding two posters elegantly inscribed by Mikhail Baryshnikov. The artwork overwhelms every wall of the house, as well as the insides of kitchen cabinets, bedroom floors, and the bathroom door (Peter Frampton's Frampton's Camel). Part of why he lives alone and never married, he says, is because it would have interfered with his passion for collecting.
The end display is fine, but it is the thrill of the hunt that keeps Ashworth going. At the moment, his white whales are Richie Valens, Clark Gable, and Humphrey Bogart. He "nails" his subjects at gigs, estate sales, auctions, and book and record stores. Sometimes he tries the mail. When the Mirage club closed a few years ago, he scored signed posters by Cinderella, Danger Danger, Mr. Big, and dozens of the hair bands he knows and loves.
He likes originals. Mickey Mantle's high school basketball photo. Troubled Mets star Darryl Strawberry, on a rare one-off LP called Get Metsmerized! ("I said, 'Now I know why none of you guys were singing stars,' and [Strawbwerry] laughed.") A Harry Potter movie poster signed by J.K. Rowling. A poster signed by the entire 1980 U.S.A. Olympic hockey team.
His two biggest prizes are a note from Lewis Carroll that he procured for $2,000 and that is stashed, seemingly carelessly, under a pile of records and magazines, and Buddy Holly's 1958 New Mexico fishing license.
Ashworth also fishes. And plays bridge and attends St. Paul Saints games. But his obsession is autographs, every one of which tells a story.
Brian Wilson signed Pet Sounds with a barely legible "B W." ("I think he was on medication at the time," Ashworth says.) Joe Mauer signed a high school photo with "Go Cretin." The J. Geils Band's Peter Wolf, among others, drew on-the-spot artwork.
"I told [Motley Crue's] Nikki Sixx, 'I used to be a math teacher. I think you're the only one I know in music that has a number for a name.' He said, 'I think you're right.' Flaming Lips, that was their first album, and he [Wayne Coyne] wanted to show it around. He said, 'There were only about a thousand of 'em. I don't even have one.'
"I was on the bus with Nazareth, and the manager took my album and went in the other room and brought it back with an obviously forged signature of the lead singer. You know, why not just not do it?
"I asked Elvis Costello if he remembered playing at the Longhorn, and he said, 'I certainly do, is it still there?' I said, 'Unfortunately, no.'
"Lou Reed said nothing.
"The only time I've ever asked anyone for their autograph and they've lost their cool was when I asked John Cale to sign this"--Ashworth holds out a copy of the Velvet Underground's first album--"and he pushed it away and quit signing altogether. You'd think that 40 years or whatever would take care of any grudge or whatever.
"Remember Carol Wayne? She was the weather girl on Johnny Carson. She died in an auto accident, so that was a tough autograph." The photo, by the way, is a nude. "John Fogerty said, 'I've met you before!' I said, 'I wish, but we've never met.'
"My aunt knew [wrestler] Gorgeous George, so I got that. Ted Nugent's niece went to Como [Park High], where I used to teach, so I was able to get that. One of my former students is Jack Nicholson's caretaker out in Colorado, so I asked his mother to get me a picture. She said, 'You have to wait for the right time with Jack.' About three years later, she called and said, 'I have your picture.'
"I retired six years ago, and I'm busier than I've ever been. If you have interests, you just find things you enjoy, and you stay busy. Like yesterday, I could have spent all day chasing [Negro League star] Buck O'Neil down. If you're teaching or working somewhere, you can't do that."
As he speaks, the full-to-bursting walls of Ashworth's home press in. He may be at an age when splurging his savings and pension on autographs is his right, but he admits that he's starting to wonder what will become of it all when he's gone.
"I'm hoping to get a student or someone to come stay in the extra room and help take care of the place," he says. "I'm trying to get stuff organized. My only family is my brother, and he just hopes he goes before I do so he doesn't have to deal with it. I think he sees it as a mountain of accumulation, whereas I treasure each thing."

ACP Selects The Reporter As Finalist In National Competition
By Staff Reports
Two students who served on the staff of last year's Reporter have been selected as finalist for 2012 Associated Collegiate Press Awards.
Lazaro Gamio, a 21-year-old Electronic Media Major at New World School of the Arts, was tabbed as a finalist in the Newspaper Page One category; Manny Palou is a finalist in the House Advertisement division.
Winners will be announced in Chicago on November 3. Palou and Gamio are one of five finalists in their respective categories. The ACP received more than 500 entries for the competition.
"Associated Collegiate Press competitions are the Super Bowl of student journalism," said Gamio who also earned an honorable mention in the ACP Newspaper Page/Spread category. "It's great to make it to the finalists' round, and even if I don't win, it validates how special the work done at The Reporter is."
For Gamio, the honor is his latest accolade.This summer he interned at National Geographic as an information graphics intern.
In January, he participated in the New York Times Student Journalism Institute in Arizona after he was selected during a national search.
During his tenure at The Reporter, Gamio won seven design awards from the Florida College System Activities Association. He is responsible for creating The Reporter's entire design style during its infancy in October of 2010.
Today, Gamio is a freelance designer and a part-time online producer for The Miami Herald.
Palou, 21, was a designer for The Reporter during his tenure with the paper. In addition, he also created illustrations and made house advertisements.
Last October, Palou won a first place award in Advertising Design from the Florida College System Activities Association.
"The Reporter's strict devotion to quality and creativity allowed me to make some of my best work with them," Palou said.
Also earning honorable mention from the ACP was Donnalyn Anthony, a photographer with The Reporter, in the feature photo category.

Home Sports BAKER BASEBALL: Columbia shuts out Bulldogs, 5-0
BAKER BASEBALL: Columbia shuts out Bulldogs, 5-0
By Gerry Steele
Baker's bats were silent Tuesday in a nonleague baseball game against Columbia High School of Nampa at the Baker Sports Complex.
The Bulldogs (2-2) managed just four hits on the way to dropping a 5-0 game that finished in a steady rain.
The game also was interrupted for 10 minutes in the bottom of the third inning when the field was cleared due to lightning striking in the Virtue Flat area.
"The first part of the game I thought we played well," said Baker coach Tim Smith. "Kind of getting a feel for things.
"Then after the lightning delay we just couldn't get anything going."
The game was scoreless prior to the delay, but Columbia used a two-run home run to take a 2-0 lead in the top of the fourth.
The closest Baker came to scoring after that was in the fifth when Micah Mespelt rapped a one-out double.
The Bulldogs struck out nine times in the game, including six of the final eight outs after Mespelt's hit.
"That can't happen," Smith said.
Caleb Custer threw into the seventh inning for the Bulldogs, striking out 10.
"I thought Caleb threw well. He battled back well after giving up the home run," Smith said.
Baker has two more nonleague games this week, at Fruitland Thursday and at Emmett Saturday.
Columbia 0 0 0 2 2 0 1 — 5
Baker 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 — 0
Custer, Dixon (7) and Mespelt. LP — Custer.
Baker hits — Bachman, Plumbtree, Mespelt, Srack. Baker RBI — none.
2B — Mespelt.

Discus Feeding
Okay my discus used to eat frozen bloodworms and beefheart. So my LFS has live blackworms, and I got a couple portions. I fed them to all my tanks a couple times. Now the discus will only eat the live blackworms. I tried mixing them with the frozen food but he picks out the blackworms. It is getting to be a little to much $ to feed him only the live foods. I would like to get him to eat pellets and frozen. So what should I do?

Europe's Energy Death Wish
Arthur Herman, New York Post
The Associated Press
It's common knowledge that Europeans are dependent on Russia's state-run Gazprom for their natural-gas needs — up to 30 percent for the European Union as a whole, more for Eastern Europe. The threat of cutting off this vital supply allowed Putin to get away with annexing Crimea, cowing our NATO allies into quivering passivity in the face of naked aggression.

P.E. Central Lesson Plan: Dot Stops
Prerequisites:The students should have practiced dribbling, focusing on keeping the ball close to their feet, as well as proper trapping technique (using the sole of the foot).
Purpose of Activity:To practice control-dribbling and trapping a ball in a dynamic environment. The skill of "looking up" while dribbling can also be worked on, if desired.
Suggested Grade Level:3-5
Materials Needed:As many "poly-dots" (spots) as possible; soccer balls (one for each student); other miscellaneous obstacles (e;g; cones; boxes; bean bags; garbage cans);
Lesson Plan:Description of Idea
After you quickly explain the activity, students should begin to dribble their soccer ball around the activity area. If they can trap the ball exactly on top of a poly-dot during that time, they earn one point. After some practice, you can then give students a time limit (for example, 30 seconds). Students can be challenged to earn as many points as possible within the time limit.
Once students have demonstrated their ability to control-dribble and trap, add obstacles such as the boxes, garbage cans, etc. around the area. Now, students may still earn a point for trapping on a poly-dot, but they can also lose all their points if their ball hits an obstacle. Again, a time limit may be added for a further challenge and excitement; have students begin over at "0" each time a new limit is set.
A number of challenges can then be added to the activity, according to the students' skill levels. For example:
Have students trap the ball on a dot -- moving slightly forward of the ball -- then quickly turn so they are now dribbling from the same direction from which they just came. As students become proficient at this, the trap and turn are done almost simultaneously.
Have students pair up with a student of similar ability (you may decide to pair them up). One student "follows the leader" through the obstacled area, trying to stay as close as possible to the leader. After some practice, a pair may cooperatively earn points by trapping on a dot -- or lose them, if one of the pair's ball touches an obstacle.
Two students dribble and pass the ball to each other as they move through the obstacle-free activity area, trying to trap a ball passed to them on a poly-dot. Once you observe that students are fairly successful at this, add the obstacles for them to dribble and pass around.
You can also move students to the next "level" by having them focus on
"looking up" while dribbling. To aid in this skill, hold flash cards up while students are dribbling; see if they can read the card (or give you the answer!) while controlling their ball.
See the challenges (i.e., "applications") and "next-level" ideas (i.e., "extensions") as noted in the description above.
Assessment Ideas:
Begin to play some music. At various intervals during the song, stop the music and see how many students are able to trap their ball within 3 seconds.
Observe students' abilities to "look up" while dribbling the ball.
Using an assessment tool such as the Cue Checklist Sheet, note whether each student usually, sometime, or almost never looks up while dribbling.

Iran claims US drone capture; Navy denies loss
Wednesday, December 5, 2012
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran claimed Tuesday it had taken another prize in a growing showdown with Washington over drone surveillance, displaying a purported U.S. unmanned aircraft it said was captured intact. The U.S. Navy, however, said none of its drones in the region was missing.
The conflicting accounts could put pressure on both sides for more details on U.S. reconnaissance and Iranian counter-measures.
They also point to other questions, including how Iran could manage to snatch the Boeing-designed ScanEagle drone without noticeable damage to its light-weight, carbon-fiber body or whether the aircraft could be from another Gulf country that deploys it.
There is even the possibility the drone is authentic but was plucked from the sea after a past crash and unveiled for maximum effect amid escalating tensions over U.S. reconnaissance missions — including a Predator drone coming under fire from Iranian warplanes last month.
But unlike the larger Predator, which can carry weapons and sophisticated surveillance systems, the much smaller ScanEagle collects mostly photographic and video images using equipment with little intelligence value, experts said. One called the craft a "large seagull" with cameras.
Monitoring of Gulf air and sea traffic is considered of high importance for the U.S. military. Iran has taken steps to boost its naval and drone capabilities, unsettling Washington's Gulf Arab allies. Iran also has threatened in the past to try to block the strategic Strait of Hormuz — the route for one-fifth of the world's oil — in retaliation for Western sanctions over Tehran's nuclear program.
"We had warned American officials not to violate our airspace. We had formally protested such actions and had announced that we protect our borders," state TV quoted Foreign Minister Ali Abkar Salehi as saying.
Washington denies it has crossed into Iranian airspace, but Iran's definition of its jurisdiction could be far broader. State-run Press TV said any surveillance of Iran was considered "a violation of territory."
Asked about Iran's assertion that it had captured a U.S. drone, White House press secretary Jay Carney said "we have no evidence that the Iranian claims are true."
Cmdr. Jason Salata, a spokesman for the U.S. Navy's 5th Fleet in Bahrain, said there are no Navy drones missing in the Middle East.
"The U.S. Navy has fully accounted for all unmanned air vehicles operating in the Middle East region," said Salata. "Our operations in the Gulf are confined to internationally recognized waters and airspace."
He noted that some ScanEagles operated by the Navy "have been lost into the water" over the years, but there is no "record of that occurring most recently."
Other countries in the region, including the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait, also have ScanEagle drones in their fleets. It's used by other militaries, but not among Iran's close allies.

text: Gr 9 Up--Nothing is going to distract high school student Keira from practicing her piano. After all, it is her talent that is going to get her out of her dead-end hometown and into Julliard. So when handsome Walker starts to work at the music store Keira frequents, she tries to keep her distance. When she begins to experience hallucinations, she is afraid that she might be going crazy. Then she begins to unravel the truth. Her hallucinations are really portals into a parallel universe called Darkside. She realizes that her musical ability has life-and-death implications and that Walker is not who he seems to be. The plot is complex, but nimbly handled. The backstories of Keira's quarreling parents, her alienated BFF, and her long-dead uncle are interspersed with the tormented reality of Darkside. Thrown into the mix is the gentle development of romance between Keira and Walker. Descriptive passages are imaginative and evocative. Keira's hallucinations-Walker's moving tattoo, the solitary door in the middle of the road, dark trees growing in the living room-come across as believable but unnerving disturbances in an otherwise normal life. The dialogue rings true, particularly the easy, relaxed conversations between Keira and her best friend. The only downside is that the rising action takes a long time to unfold. Keira does not discover that the hallucinations are real until more than halfway into the story. Still, the slow beginning gives way to a crackerjack middle and end. There are hints of a sequel.--Jennifer Prince, Buncombe County Public Library, NC[Page 161]. (c) Copyright 2013. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.

Donald Sterling no longer is welcome in any NBA arena and his ownership of the Los Angeles Clippers is in jeopardy after a recording of his bizarre racist rant became public last Saturday.
Rather than apologize for his comments, however, Sterling is reportedly expressing a much different type of remorse.
He is not sorry for what he said. Apparently, he is sorry for failing to buy the silence of Vanessa Stiviano, the woman who made the recording.
"I wish I had just paid her off," Sterling said, according to DuJour.com. Sterling reportedly went on to say he's limiting his interviews to Barbara Walters and the NBA.
The episode appears to have begun after Stiviano, who has been described as Sterling's girlfriend, assistant or archivist in various reports, posted an Instagram photo of herself posing with Los Angeles Lakers great Magic Johnson. In the recording, which TMZ originally posted, Sterling admonished Stiviano for bringing "black people" to his games and told her not to "promote" her association with them.
Sterling was subsequently banned from any NBA activity or involvement for life by league commissioner Adam Silver, in addition to a $2.5 million fine.

Junior shooters get tips from Olympians at summer camp
June 29, 2009
Related Links
FORT BENNING, Ga. (Army News Service, June 29, 2009) -- For some kids, a chance to hang out with and pick the brain of a U.S. Olympian or Soldier would be the highlight of the summer. Here, 35 youngsters earned the opportunity to do both at the same time.
The U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit's International Rifle team conducted a five-day shooting camp, June 22-26, for some of the top up-and-comers in the sport from all over the country. During the event, Army shooters helped prepare the kids to take the next step in their young shooting careers.
"It's more of an advanced camp," said Sgt. George Norton, who was the camp's director. "There are a lot of camps out there for the basic level and teaching the fundamentals, but this camp is bringing them to that next step. A lot of shooters are looking for that next thing to learn, but there aren't many camps out there that will do that for them. We wanted to have a camp that will help out those kids that wanted something a little extra."
The camp was born from the numerous requests for AMU Soldiers to teach shooters from all over the country every summer, said Maj. Michael Anti, a former U.S. Olympian. With the pace of the shooting schedule and other responsibilities, the team wouldn't have time to properly train if it was running all over the country.
"We decided to do one clinic a year and open it up to the nation's best junior shooters so we can get a big group at one time," said Anti.
Entry is limited to 35 kids, who all had to earn their way into the camp, Norton said. They had to meet certain criteria to attend the camp, including gaining a qualifying rank through USA Shooting.
"We actually had to turn away a bunch of kids," Norton remarked. "We didn't want to, but we wanted to have that higher ratio."
The ratio of one coach to four shooters is one of the reasons the camp is so successful and sought after by shooters and their parents. The time devoted to each shooter by a coach is something the AMU strives for and feels most proud of.
"The low coach-to-shooter ratio is great," said Kelly Edwards, who brought his 12-year-old daughter Kaitlynn to the camp from Victoria, Texas. "They really get to ask some good questions, more advanced stuff. Besides all of the shooting questions, the coaches were telling them how to pack for a match and how to handle a finals match, things like that."
The camp starts out with a diagnostic shooting event on Monday morning, giving the coaches a starting point from where to work. From there, classroom work begins in the afternoon, preparing the shooters for the next morning's range session. They are taught the intricacies of the prone, standing, and kneeling positions, along with an array of marksmanship techniques. It culminates Friday with a finals event, copied straight from the way an Olympic-level event would run.
"The match at the end of the week is my favorite part of camp," said Kelsey Hansen, 16, from Minot, N.D., who was making her second visit to the camp. "It allows me to see my improvements."
The kids bombard the coaches with all kinds of questions, such as "What is an accurate rifle'" "What do I watch for in the wind'" or "What do you say when you get nervous to calm down'"
"The overall goal is for them to realize that they can shoot better," Norton said. "Some of them come in thinking along the lines that this is as good as I am going to get-'I can't fix this or I can't fix that'-and we want to get rid of the cant's. We want them to get to the 'I will fix this and I will fix that.' They're so young and it takes time. I mean, I've been shooting for 11 years. (Sgt. 1st Class Jason Parker) has been shooting for 20 years. A lot of the guys on the team have been in the sport for so long and we're still getting better."
The dedication, professionalism and expertise of the AMU Soldiers instill positive impressions of the Army that may help prospective candidates in their decision about their future. A junior who attended three previous camps is on his way to West Point this fall and will be a member of their shooting team.
"It's good to let them know that we are Soldiers first, but this is our job," said Norton. "You can come in and be a mechanic, an infantryman, or whatever you want, and you can still do this."
The week is not all work. The team takes the shooters bowling, to a miniature golf course, and the brand new Infantry Museum and IMAX Theater in the evenings after training. The coaches also have a friendly competition amongst each other to see who can improve their shooters the best.
"If they'll have us, we'll be back," Edwards said. "It doesn't get said enough how great these Soldiers are. I want to thank them for their great service to a great country."
The AMU trains thousands of Soldiers each year in marksmanship techniques through train-the-trainer clinics, and passing this knowledge on to possible future Soldiers, or Olympic shooters, is what it's all about.
"I just like being around the kids," said Parker, a three-time Olympian. "Some of the things we take for granted the kids don't have the knowledge to know about it yet. I really enjoy passing on my knowledge to these up-and-coming shooters."
(Michael Molinaro is the PAO for the for the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit)

A gas station in Beaufort County is limiting gas purchases to $5.00. Workers with Waters' Service Station near Terra Ceia in Beaufort County say their gas supply is so low that customers are allowed just $5.00 in gas. That's barely two gallons judging by the average gas prices in Eastern North Carolina. Workers at Waters' gas station say customers have been angry about the $5.00 limit. Waters also services Terra Ceia Christian School in Beaufort County and phoned the school to let them know about their limited supply.

The following is a transcript of the interview of King Tutankhamen and GF.
GF: Well King Tutankhamen make your self comfortable. May I please ask you a couple of questions
King tut: Thank you I have Such a kink in the neck after a couple thousand years. Of course. You may ask away.
GF: I have heard you had a slightly clubbed foot and you needed a cane to walk.Can you clear up any misinformation about your health?
King Tut: My foot was slightly clubbed. My health was not perfect. The fact that my parents were siblings may hve contributed to this.
GF: Is the curse you suposedly put on the tomb real or fake?
King Tut: There is no curse! Lord Canarvon the person who funded the exploration had gotten amosquitto bite the day before he entered and he worsened it as he shaved the next morning. My tomb had fungi spores on the wall and they burst when he entered the tomb. Also just because when Howard Carter died and his dog howled then dropped dead was just a coincedence.
GF: How come you changed your name from Tutankhaten to Tutankhamen? Why did you change worship back to Amen after your father changed it back to Aten?
King Tut: You could find the answer to that first question in the second question. I changed woship back because it is what the people wanted.I was very well liked by the people.
GF: Who/what was it that killed you? There is much controversy about your death. What do you believe the real cause was?
King Tut: I got very sick before I died. Scientists told me I had traces of melaria in my system as soon as I came back to life for today . I believe it was the melaria that killed me since medical treatment was nothing like it is now.
GF: How many years was your reign before you died? What can you tell us about egyptian life back then?
King Tut: My reign was very short ,only ten years from ages 9 to 19. Egyption life was the life for me! It had a great econemy.
GF: How long was your sleep before you were "discovered" in 1923. How many times was your tomb robbed after your burial.
King Tut: My sleep was three thousand years long. My tomb was robbed only twice. I am proud of that since many pharaohs tombs are robed many more times.
GF: Well thank you for being here: It was a great honor for me to have you here. Thank you for coming.
King Tut: Your welcome. It was nice for me too. Your furniture was very soft. I will need to get some for my tomb.

Police chief, special event fees topic Tuesday night
By: Stephanie Dumm, News Messenger Reporter
Lincoln City Council unanimously voted Tuesday night to retain Police Chief Paul Shelgren as an interim police chief, following his retirement next Wednesday. "I received a retirement letter and he plans to retire on May 2. I have been speaking to him for some time about possibly retaining his services in an interim capacity until that time when we reach fiscal sustainability and can afford bringing in a full-time police chief," Lincoln City Manager Jim Estep said at Tuesday's City Council meeting. "He has generously offered to stay on as a retired annuitant." Estep said that means Shelgren can only work 960 hours per year and may work for "six months at half time or some variation." As a retired annuitant, Estep said, Shelgren would "come at a very reduced rate" at $62,335 per year. "We won't have to pay him benefits in his interim role as a retired annuitant and he will be paid at the lowest step as opposed to his current step as police chief," Estep said. Councilman Gabriel Hydrick asked Shelgren for "a picture of what your work week might be." "I don't suspect my actual work habits to change much," Shelgren said. "I intend it to be pretty seamless." City Council also approved a resolution "calling for an election to make the position of city treasurer appointive rather than elected." City Attorney John Hobbs said the council directed city staff to look into "the possibility of the treasurer being an appointed position rather than elected." Voters will decide on Nov. 6 if they would like the city treasurer to be an elected or appointed position, according to Hobbs. If voters decide the city treasurer should remain elected, Hobbs said, residents would need to vote who they'd like to have as treasurer from available candidates. New special event permit processes and fees were also approved Tuesday by City Council. The city's recreation supervisor Kristine Pelzman said that "instead of obtaining an encroachment permit for a special event, neighborhood block party or banner," those holding events will now "obtain a newly-formed Special Event Permit, block party permit or banner permit." Starting Jan. 1, 2013, a banner permit for banners hung at First Street and Joiner Parkway would be $95; a neighborhood block party permit is $95; and there would be three levels for a special-event permit. A class-one event is a gathering of 50 to 99 people and costs $95 with a damage deposit of $250, Pelzman said. A class-two event would have more than 100 in attendance and has a fee of $125 with a $500 damage deposit, Pelzman said. A class-two event would mean an attendance of more than 1,000 participants, with a $150 fee and $750 damage deposit, Pelzman said. Alcohol sales and consumption would mean an additional $50 fee and a road closure would also be $50, according to Pelzman. Mayor Spencer Short asked if the damage deposit was "more of a cleaning deposit." "There was a case a few years ago that spray paint was painted on the streets," Pelzman said. "There have been instances where events have left excessive garbage that city staff has had to go clean up." The incident including spray paint was from the May 2010 Italian Festival. The festival's organizer addressed the council. "I'm president of Friends of Lincoln Kids and I have a grievance on the subject of paint on the street," Jeff Greenberg joked. "It was our fault because I was in charge." Greenberg said the new fees "will impact what we do." Greenberg also stressed the importance "of bringing people into Lincoln" through events like his. "It's very important that we make this a visitor-friendly city in hopes that we will net these visitors to become residents of the city," Greenberg said. "We need to have new businesses in town. They bring fees, sales tax and bring more people coming into the downtown sector." Paul Apfel, president of the new Art League of Lincoln, said he "views any increase in fees for events to be held by nonprofits with a great deal of concern." "An increase in fees could work against our best interests and the best interests of the city of Lincoln and citizens," Apfel said. Lincoln Area Chamber of Commerce Chief Executive Officer Bob Romness asked if the city's recreation department "could hold" the damage and cleaning deposit check instead of cashing it in the event that "everything is fine." "It's fine. You can hold the check," Hobbs told city staff.

HMRC scraps VAT on bitcoin
HMRC has announced it will remove the 20% VAT currently on virtual currency bitcoin, after a period of determining its tax treatment.
Bitcoin was previously treated as a voucher for tax purposes and was subject to 20% VAT, but traders in the UK protested that this was driving business away from the country.
In new guidance published this week, HMRC said it would scrap VAT on the mining (or creation) of the currency.
However, it will still be subject to corporation tax, income tax and capital gains tax.
HMRC said the guidance is provisional VAT treatment, which is pending further developments.
The move comes recently after the collapse of major bitcoin trading exchange MtGox, which shut down las...

VAT free drinks?
So if I buy drinks in a pub with bitcoins, do I get them VAT free and therefore cheaper?
No, but as they are several hundred £ each so if you are spending bitcoins (plural) at the pub you will probably get discount anyway.

January Jones is notoriously tight-lipped about the identity of her son's father. However, in explaining why she keeps her private life so closely guarded, the actress revealed to Net-a-Porter that she planned to be a single mom all along.
Speaking about refusing to reveal who 20-month-old son Xander's father is, the actress explained:
"It's just not something the public needs to know. I don't divulge my sexual preferences. There are parts of your life – no matter what your job – that should remain private. When I was starting out, other actors advised me to keep certain things close to the vest. When you become a public figure people want to know everything about you, and then [they] pick it apart – it becomes negative. When my son asks those questions, I want him to [hear it from me]. I don't want him to be able to Google it."
But when asked about her pregnancy, she added it was the "most healthy and peaceful I have ever felt," and she can't imagine parenthood any other way.
"I don't have room for anything else, so I don't know how I would have done it with a partner. I knew I would be raising my son alone. It was something I went in to knowingly, I was prepared mentally – and I was excited about it."
I'm starting to get the feeling that gossip speculation about January Jones' son's father has been wrong all along. While early reports tried to peg who the man could be (director Matthew Vaughn, Jason Sudeikis and Michael Fassbender were all named as suspects), they missed the possibility the 35-year-old may have turned to a sperm donor.
Could the Mad Men actress be among the many who've opted to become a single mom by choice? Check out which other stars have started families or added to them on their own:
In a roundabout way, I find January Jones' privacy stance commendable — but I also think refusing to talk about Xander's father is making the scrutiny on her more intense.
Famous females who choose single motherhood seem to be fairly accepted. If that's the route she took to parenthood, saying so would quickly put the speculation to an end.
What do you make of January Jones' single motherhood comments?

The Tech Labs is a highly respected online tech news and tutorial community for Web designers and developers.
Among the first points of confusion addressed in the Xbox 720 blog post is the language used by Microsoft regarding the introduction of the gaming console. According to Pinho, many non-industry insiders mistake the company's phrasing to mean one thing while it actually means another. "The blog post explains that everyone should keep in mind that a product 'unveil' is not the same thing as a product release," said Pinho. "By all indications, the new console is not expected to be released until sometime in late 2013 or later."
The post delves deep into the issues surrounding the Microsoft Xbox 720 graphical processing power, which is surely to increase dramatically, but not to the extent that is possible with the latest available GPU. A highly debated point is the possibility of new security features that prevent playback of second-hand game titles. "The post delves deeply into the specific GPUs being considered as well as the true ramifications of second-hand game lockout for gamers, Microsoft and the industry," said Pinho.
The article also deals with the area of media and storage support--both of which are tied to the potential security features debate. The inclusion of Blu-Ray disc support, Cloud storage and internal storage capacity are also discussed. Other aspects discussed that have significant impact include potential controller changes and actual release dates. "Despite the rumors on all of these possibilities, our goal was to write an article that dealt in facts more than speculation," said Pinho. "This evolving story means that readers should check back often as we update the blog." For more information, please visit http://www.thetechlabs.com/tech-news/new-xbox-720/

|Maston Releases New Album SHADOWS
February 12, 2013
Brass, woodwinds, organs and piano mix with haunting melodies and eerie guitar lines on California multi-instrumentalist Maston's upcoming LP Shadows, out via Trouble in Mind on February 12.
Pitchfork premieres the first track from Shadows, "Young Hearts" today: On "Young Hearts," he seamlessly moves from spooky organ jabs to sweet harpsichord melodies while singing an unsettling love song. Throughout the track, he's constantly altering dozens of layers-- changing volumes, textures, and overall moods to craft an erratic, unpredictable composition with a sentimental pop song at its core.
For more about Maston, find him on Facebook, BandCamp and at Trouble in Mind.

On the upside
Sarepta Therapeutics (Nasdaq: SRPT) regained compliance for Nasdaq listing by maintaining a $1 minimum closing bid price for ten consecutive business days.

On the downside
Credit Suisse analyst Michael Exstein said that J.C. Penney's (NYSE: JCP) efforts to revitalize its brand with the new branded shops within a department store concept will be challenging.
Second quarter earnings for Lufkin (Nasdaq: LUFK) fell short of analyst expectations and the oilfield services provider forecast earnings and revenue that missed analyst estimates.

The Discus Thrower and his Dream FactoryPublished on Saturday, December 15, 2012 by Gideon Ariel
My biography is now available online.
Dreams have no boundaries if you follow them. Imagination, luck, and hard work are necessary ingredients for success. But, if your mind bubbles, creates, and breathes life into dreams, then dreams can become real. The mind is the factory which forges the dreams. This is how sports and fantasy can combine to create real life. Dreams can come true if you try.

Drought: Unit Overview part of EarthLabs:Drought
Drought is an ever-present threat to all people whose lifestyles have been built on the availability of water. Across the planet, millions of humans make their homes and grow crops in areas that receive minimal amounts of precipitation. In this EarthLabs module students learn that when precipitation drops below normal, drought conditions can develop and economic, environmental, and social impacts can follow. The unit teaches students to interpret climate data to recognize the symptoms and evaluate the severity of drought. The unit raises awareness of the need to be prepared to face drought conditions that may become more common as our planet warms.

Trick-or-treating is always a blast for your children, but in October the days get shorter, so make sure the kids are prepared with the items featured in our Safety Accessories section. Here, your kids will be able to pick up items that light up, glow, and reflect in order for passing cars to see them from dozens of feet away. Spookiness and horror may be fun, but it should never be more important than nighttime safety.
Blinking Halloween Safety Light
Five Nights At Freddy's Flashlight
Glow sticks and blinking lights are two popular items that the children can hold or wear on their costumes. These accessories are ideal when your child is dressed up in a costume that is black, such as a grim reaper cloak or anything similar. Crossing the street will transform into a safe task as the kids move around the neighborhood acquiring pounds of candy to take home with them.
Several other light-up and reflective products are also available, so choose the ones that you feel work best in your neighborhood. They may be safely affixed to your children's costumes with ease and could even be utilized to improve the costume, like a radioactive miner.

The Lady Owls advanced to the semifinals and will host No. 3 seed Park University in a best-of-three series starting at 2 p.m. Tuesday.
