The Timothy Plan, a Florida investment firm which bills itself as "conservative Christian," is warning holiday-shopping parents away from what it calls the 30 "most offensive" video games.
While the usual suspects (GTA IV, Saints Row 2, Blitz the League II) make the list, there are some surprises as well, including the T-rated Bully: Scholarship Edition and World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade.
In its game rankings, the organization displays an obvious anti-gay bias. While it evaluates titles for sex and nudity, a gay/lesbian rating is also included, meaning that a game with a gay sexual encounter might get a double whammy when compared to a game where the sex is of the straight variety. This effect, for instance, pushes Fable II onto the group's most offensive list. Along that line a report prepared by the Timothy Plan contains this rather bizarre comment:
Army of Two: Homosexual Encounters: …Somewhat homo-erotic undertones between the two main characters are present.
WoW made it onto the dirty thirty, thanks to a high "addiction" rating as well as a high rating for alcohol use (curse you, Noggenfogger elixir!).
How the group determined the addiction rank is really quite unfathomable. WoW received a 3, for example, the worst possible rating, while Lord of the Rings Online got a 1 and Age of Conan a 2. In fact, all of the MMOs were tagged for addiction as well as some multiplayer games like Halo 3. A few games (The Darkness, Devil May Cry 4) were punished for "demonic" references.
Timothy Plan president Art Ally (left) comments:
Many, if not most, parents who buy their kids video games really don't know the extent of sex and violence imbedded in them. From drug use, prostitution, murder and mayhem to vulgar profanity and blasphemy these games have become a powerfully negative influence on our kids…
I believe, if parents would take a moment to look at the report we've created, their game selections would be quite different.
The group maintains a corporate "hall of shame" which includes game publishers EA, Take-Two and Microsoft. The Timothy Plan also offers to screen your portfolio to see if any of your mutual funds have investments in shameful companies.
So helpful!

WHEELING -Like most of his golfers, Don Headley has been pretty consistent in his time at Wheeling Park.
In his five years of coaching the Patriots, they've won five OVAC championships, making it the second time Park has won five straight titles since the start of the 21st century.
On Thursday, they'll try to go 6-for-6, a feat the Patriots of the early 2000s failed to accomplish.
''It means a great deal,'' Headley said. ''That's been the kid's goal. This whole thing started five years ago with a different group, but these kids want to carry on that tradition.''
They'll get the chance on Oglebay's Jones Course where the 5A tournament is set to tee off at 9:30 that morning.
Park returns last year's 5A and W.Va. AAA state medalist in junior Cole Hand as well as Dylan Wojcik, who finished third on the team in last year's tournament as a freshman.
Wojcik will be Park's No. 2 man, while freshman Kyle Wenzel and sophomore Freddie Fitzsimmons will fill in at No. 3 and No. 4, respectively.
''We're very young,'' - the Patriots have no seniors on their roster - ''but some (players) have experience,'' Headley said. ''We've been playing pretty well recently. The kids' chemistry is very, very good. They're excited.''
Despite a solid group of contenders, Headley knows it won't be easy for the Patriots.
Parkersburg South and University both have strong, experienced teams. The Wood County Patriots actually beat Park for the Three Rivers Athletic Conference championship - the first time the Ohio County Patriots haven't won the TRAC title.
South's Alex Schreckengost and the Hawks' Cale Wheeler will be Cole's top competition, as well as Brooke's Logan Lojszyk and Cambridge's Skyler Roederer.
''The kids have been practicing and getting ready for this tournament,'' Headley said. ''They're ready to defend.''
The same can be said for Madonna as coach T.J. Brancazio's Blue Dons will try to win a fifth consecutive 1A title this morning on Oglebay's Crispin Course.
The Blue Dons, who won last year by 49 strokes, have everyone back - five players were all-OVAC last year, led by senior Michael Rogers, though teammate Nick Mazur is the defending medalist. Alex Colantonia, Matthew Lyons and Thomas Gianni rounded up that group. Gianni's score was among the top five in the class, but because they take only the top 4, it wasn't counted on Madonna's total.
Meanwhile, in Class 4A, East Liverpool will look for back-to-back championships as it captured its first league title in school history last year to break St. Clairsville's two-year run as the toast of the class.
The Red Devils, though, will look to return to the top spot today on the Jones Course after they claimed the Buckeye 8 Championship behind medalist Seth Vannoy. St. Clairsville was also the only team in that tournament to have three players finish in the Top 10 with Nathan Teater sixth and Joel Giffin 10th.
Linsly will look to move up a spot from the its runner-up finish a year ago in Class 3A. The Cadets, who returned six of their top seven players from that squad and are looking to bring a title home for the first time since 2007, will be in action on Thursday on the Crispin Course, while in 2A, Wheeling Central enters the tournament today as defending champs after claiming last year's crown to make it two out of the past four years the Maroon Knights have won it.
The 2A tournament will be held in conjunction with 1A as both classes will play on the Crispin Course starting at 9:30 a.m.

Marquette Golden Eagles reached the pinnacle in 1977 when they won the National Championship. Overall, Marquette has reached the Final Four three times and won a conference regular season championship three times. The Golden Eagles has played in the NCAA Tournament over 30 times. Score with TicketCity - the place to go for Marquette Golden Eagles basketball tickets.
Check back for a preview of the 2016 Marquette Golden Eagles season.
The Golden Eagles play their home games at the BMO Harris Bradley Center, located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. When filled to capacity, the BMO Harris Bradley Center holds nearly 19,000 screaming fans. Even though Marquette have around 8,000 undergraduate students, the Golden Eagles ranked in the top 10 of attendance in consecutive seasons in the late 2000s. The Marquette Golden Eagles home bench is on the BMO Harris Bradley Center sideline in front of sections 201-202. BMO Harris Bradley Center parking information is covered in our Golden Eagles event guide.
Wisconsin Badgers
As in state opponents, it is only natural that these two teams would be rivals. With only a short drive on I-94, this match-up is often heated and intense. The last eight meetings between Marquette and Wisconsin have been decided by ten points or less which has only heightened this in-state rivalry.
Marquette has reached the Final Four three times in school history, capped off with a national championship in 1977. The Golden Eagles have appeared in the NCAA Tournament over 30 times and have won a Big East regular season title in 2013.
The doors open at BMO Harris Bradley Center 60 minutes prior to tip-off.

East Central Florida
East Central Florida
Day 1
    Mt. Dora is a fine example of small town America! There is antiquing, boating, shopping, eating, wine tasting, relaxing, and sightseeing. We made this our home for 3 nights.  We're back in central Florida. http://www.mountdora.com/
    Tremain Street Cottages are charming, functional, and reasonably priced. We have a large bedroom with sitting area; full, if tiny, kitchen; dining area/second sleeping area (pull out love seat), and bathroom with a cast iron tub! It's all decorated with a French Country style.  The owners have gone green, so if you are ecologically minded, this might be the place for you! However, the internet connection keeps disappearing! We need to keep up on the internet, so this is a big deal for us. For you, it might not be. Rates for our suite are $111 per night.  http://www.tremainstreetcottages.com/Â
    There are so many towns, springs, state parks, events, and other activities in the area, travelers could use this as a base for day trips, or spend a night or two and just explore Mt. Dora.
      There are two places in downtown Mt. Dora that offer wine tastings. One, Julianne's Coastal Cottage on 4th Avenue, is a gift shop that features local art and foods, including the Florida Orange Groves, Inc. wines we tasted. They are mostly fruity wines which we consider desert. They were flavorful and we did buy the kiwi and white sangria.   The other, Ridgeback Winery is an actual winery! The owners, Ron and Ellie Thompson named the winery for their Ridgeback dogs, which they love.  They are sweet dogs!  Ron hosted our tasting. We chose red wines. He is cordial and very knowledgeable; hence, we learned more about wine.  Ridgeback Wines are dry, and we prefer dry wines. Their wines are produced in small batches, allowing for a more flavorful beverage. We enjoyed all the wines, but especially the Nouveau Ridge, Amarone Private Reserve, and Roscoe's Port. They are moderately priced. Wine accessories, such as wine holders, glasses, etc. are available. The winery is on the corner of Third and Baker. We'll be returning! http://ridgebackwinery.com/
    There are plenty of places to eat! Among our favorites are One Flight Up, The Frosty Mug, and Mt. Dora Sushi. One Flight Up has a balcony overlooking the main street. Wines are served along with light repasts. It's moderately priced. The Frosty Mug offers "Viking†style foods, such as smoked salmon with brie on a bed of greens, drizzled with a honey mustard sauce. We each added a bowl of soup and a glass of wine. We loved it!  Total before tip was $41.   The Viking Bar upstairs is open for cocktails. Live music is often featured in both locations. Pricing is moderate. The atmosphere is fun, with Viking murals and medieval shutters on the windows. http://www.thefrostymug.com/about.htm
    Mt. Dora Sushi serves sushi, steaks, and Japanese fare. On a recent visit, we enjoyed several types of sushi, and soft shell crab tempura, served with onion and sweet potatoes.  Two glasses of wine added to the enjoyment. Pre tip tab was $ 54.   http://mtdorasushi.com/
    There are many places to shop for home accessories, gift, clothing, shoes, children, antiques, and even pet dogs. We're waiting for a shop that caters to cats, so we can shop for Tepes. Mt. Dora is a pretty town, quiet, and friendly. It's on Lake Dora, so eco-tours on the lake are offered on a daily basis.
 Events are frequent. While there, we attended the Plant and Garden Sale. Orchids, palms, native plants, fruit trees, and roses were offered, as were garden accessories. For example, wind chimes, planters, and even waterfalls were on sale. We recommend at least 1 day.
    In the nearby town of Inverness, is the charming bed and breakfast, Lake House.  Built in the  1930s, it offers soaring ceilings, period charm, lovely lake viewws, a huge stone fireplace, and lots of conversation areas, both inside and outside. The hostess, Cathy, is amiable and a fine cook. Our breakfast was delightful: lots of coffee, juice, oatmeal with spices and cream, quiche, and the surprise – chocolate cake! Her dogs, Sophie and Bear, are polite and friendly.  The grounds are spacious and quiet, just the right place to relax. http://www.thelakehouse.org/
    Leaving Mt. Dora, we headed to Orange City http://www.ci.orange-city.fl.us/
and the Clark Family Campground. http://www.clarkfamilycampground.com/  We have Wi Fi! How cool is that in a campground! And it's available at our site! That's even cooler! There is a pool, coin laundry, modern bath houses, game room and playground for the kids, mini grocery, rec room, catch and release fishing, and planned activities. Tent and RV sites can choose electric. Wildlife is welcomed, so birders, here is your destination! Cranes, owls and storks are some birds that visit. Other animals include squirrels, coons, and snakes. Kim, in the office, is very helpful and friendly. We felt very comfortable with her. Rate per night is $31, and a AAA discount is offered.
    Lake Helen and Cassadaga are two tiny villages that are worth taking the time to see. Lake Helen is on the little lake of Lake Helen. There are some very pretty houses and parks. http://www.lakehelen.com/    The Lake Helen coffee and Tea Company offers delicious light meals for a good price. We each had a Cuban Midnight Sandwich. Greg had the apple-cabbage slaw, while my side was the cucumber salad. An ice tea and lemonade were our drinks. Everything was tasty! Total bill was $15. http://www.lakehelencoffee.com/About_Us.html
Cassadaga is known as the spiritualist town. It is a 115 year old community. Classes in spirituality, healing, meditation, and other topics are offered several days of the week. Take some time to stroll down the side streets. It seems that every other house is a medium. The Hotel Cassadaga offers séances, past life experiences, healing, and classes and seminars in Native American Medicine, Palmistry and other paranormal beliefs. A café is in the hotel. The hotel and village have gift shops and book stores. Allow about 45 minutes. http://www.cassadagahotel.net/
    Back at our campsite, we cooked a tasty meal of steak, potatoes roasted in the coals, and fresh tomatoes. This campground is a good place to get off the road for one night, or to make a home base for several nights. Blue Springs, Deland, de Leon Springs, Hontoon Island, and Daytona Beach are nearby, as are golf courses, tennis courts, and flea markets.
Day 2
    The springs were calling our name, and we heeded the call. After cooking breakfast at camp – oatmeal with fresh blueberries and hot coffee, we followed the trail to De Leon Springs State Park in the town of De Leon Springs. The park is beautiful, with majestic Live Oaks draped in Spanish moss. There are copious picnic areas, a lovely butterfly garden, canoe rentals, an eco tour on the river, and a Visitor Center. The water of the springs is a constant 72 degrees F. and is clear and refreshing.  We took a quick dip, noticing the tiny shells on the bottom of the pool. The water is so clean feeling!  We checked out the source, a deep pit that gushes water!   Water birds, deer, alligators, and fish are among the animals living here. Our appetite wetted, the best solution was the Spanish Sugar Mill!  The mill operated on the Spring Garden plantation when it was at this site in the 1800s. The Mill retains the rustic ambiance, all wood and history. Outside, in the back, artifacts of the old mill wait to be discovered by new visitors.  Inside, griddles on the tables invite customers to cook their own pancakes. Maple syrup, honey, and molasses can be toppings. Blueberries, peanut butter, pecans, and chocolate chips are extra toppings. Not interested in pancakes? Soups, sandwiches, and salads are available. I made multi-grain pancakes with peanut butter, and Greg had a tuna sandwich.  Good food! The bill was $ 15.  A tiny gift shop is in the corner. Native Americans used the spring, as did European settlers later, and Seminole War and Civil War soldiers.  In an effort to lure tourists in the 19th century, a fountain of youth was constructed, remaining today, although now dry.  Camping, fishing, hiking, and birding are some on hand activities. Admission to the park is $6 per carload.  Allow an hour, at least. www.floridastateparks.org/deleonsprings
   Blue Springs was still calling, so . . . . we went for another swim. Blue Springs State Park is in Orange City, about 25 minutes from De Leon.  I snorkeled up to the head spring! The water is extremely forceful coming out, and swimming upstream was work!  I was rewarded, with turtles, fish, and deep blue algae that seemed to dance. Again, the water is clean and fresh, with a constant 72 degree temperature. The water is so clear, I felt like I could almost see all the way to the St. John's River. Both Greg and I felt so refreshed after our swim. The surroundings are more natural than De Leon, with many submerged trees, and braches hanging low over the water. Be cautious not to snag yourself on a log or branch! We saw mullet, catfish, and many water birds. A fascinating phenomenon, the clear spring water meets the dark St. John water and a defining line develops before they blend together.   The Thursby House is on the grounds. This is the first house built in the area, in the mid 1800s. The Thursby's had 10 children! As of 2000, it's on the National Register of Historic Places. It's on a midden, or Native American refuse heap. Camping, canoeing, hiking, birding, and fishing are offered. This a manatee preserve, so they are usually around in the winter months. Swimming with them is not permitted. Admission to the park is $6 a car. Give yourself at least an hour.  www.floridastateparks.org/bluespring
      Back to DeLand and Stetson University for some culture! There are art galleries, a theater, museums, and many cultural events in DeLand, the Volusia County seat. DeLand calls itself the "Athens of Florida†following the lead of Athens, Greece in valuing education and the arts. We found an Asian market, art school, and book store that back up that claim. It's a very charming little town! There is diverse eating and shopping. Chess Park was a real surprise! Tables with chess boards in a park with a waterfall! Many of the older buildings have been restored. www.deland.org  Stetson University originally was named DeLand Academy.  It was founded in 1883 and is the oldest higher education institution in Florida.  Many of the campus buildings are historic; the campus is on the National Register of Historic Places.  Allow an hour to tour the campus and town.  http://www.stetson.edu/home/    After sightseeing, we visited the Bills and Frank's Brickhouse Grill on Woodland Blvd, the main street in town. The food was delicious! We started with crab stuffed mushrooms. Greg had a full rack of baby backs with sides of baked potato and green beans; I had the smoked pork chops with sides of baked potato and applesauce. We had a glass of wine, too. Our total was $51.   http://www.discoverdaytona.com/deland/restaurants/brickhouse_grill/index.htmÂ
    The threat of Hurricane Ida, and the blustery day had us taking down our tent at the campground. We ended the day by staying at the Holiday Inn Express in Orange City for $99 per night.
      Sanford is another of the small towns in Florida that exude charm and history. Founded in 1877, it has been restored to a rather artsy little place with a brick street and historic plaques on many of the buildings. We especially enjoyed the décor of the Folk Art shop.  Rollins College was founded here. It's worth a look around. Give yourself 30 minutes. www.ci.sanford.fl.us  But wait, there's more! The Central Florida Zoo is in town. We enjoyed our visit there very much. A Herpatarium, Amphibian room, insect zoo, birds, wild cat exhibit, elephants, crocodile, and many more animals made this fun!  A zip line complex is offered now, for an additional fee.   We'll be going back to try it out!   Allow at least an hour  Admission s $10.95 per person. http://www.centralfloridazoo.org
    The springs were still calling! Our answer today was a trip to Wekiwa Springs in Apopka, not far from Sanford. A hill slopes into a pool of clear, cool water. We watched many mullet jump to the surface of the water, snatch a bug, and dive back to the bottom. The water, of course, was refreshing, although we only waded today. History is part of Wekiwa. Timucuans used the water, fished and hunted, Spaniards explored the area, and in the 1880s and 1890s this was a very popular week end haven for picnickers and those who sought the healthful waters. There is an inviting picnic area, where we had our lunch. Canoeing and kayaking are available, as are hiking, biking and camping. We saw some deer and a turtle on our walk. Allow an hour at the least. http://www.floridastateparks.org/WekiwaSprings
    We drove through some very tiny towns, including Zellwood, Mt. Plymouth (foliage capital), Lake Jem, Sorrento, and Tangerine. A huge tangerine colored cowboy boot and tangerine bus stop let us know we where there! The old post office-general store is also bright tangerine! We saw some pretty homes, interesting stores, and countryside. Our favorite, though, was Tangerine.
    Tavares is an attractive town, near Mt. Dora.   We walked downtown and liked the City Hall Building.   http://tavares.org/
 We stayed the night in the Villa Lagoon Inn, a fairly clean and comfortable, though plain and worn, motel. It was only $50 with tax. There is Wi Fi, a pool, and fishing in the lake. We had 2 queen beds. The motel is undergoing some renovations. Dinner was at O'Keefe's Irish Pub on S. Rockingham Ave in Tavares. We both enjoyed our London broil! Greg had the Irish Whisky sauce, and I had the brown sauce. They came with baked potato, and we added a salad. Service was good, and the atmosphere was comfy. Total was $50.Â
Day 4
    No breakfast at the motel, so we ran over to Kathy's Café, an unpretentious local gathering place. Greg ordered the 2 eggs, home fries, and toast. I changed the home fries to hash browns on mine.  The coffee was good! Our total bill was $9.
    On to the next adventure – exploring Leesburg. Founded by the Lee Family in 1857, it is known as the Lakefront City. There is enough to keep anybody occupied here for a day's stay, at least. We found the Venetian Gardens, a beautiful park with meandering pathways and charming bridges. There were many birds in sight, including heron, ibises, coots, geese and ducks. This was a project for the WPA in the 1930s, helping to drain some of the marshes. We saw several people fishing while there, looking for bass. Picnic spots abound. Canoe rentals are available, and a pool charges only $1 admission. A person could spend all day in the gardens, which are free. Allow at least 30 minutes. http://www.leesburgflorida.gov/history/index.aspx
    The town itself has been renovated, and boasts many shops, including antique stores. There are several places to eat. Little patches of garden are strategically placed to provide color. A tiny museum, The Leesburg Heritage Society and Historical Museum, is full of Leesburg artifacts from the past. Some items: a dime operated hobby horse; clothing from the early 1900s; old cameras and typewriters; and a telephone switchboard. Admission is free. We stopped at Sinfully Sweet Treats on Main St for lunch. Décor was eclectic, with the brick walls partially showing. Greg ate the Mexican Chicken Wrap; I had the chicken Greek salad. Toss in a bag of chips.  Everything was tasty! Our soft drinks came with free refill. Our total was $23.  Allow 30 minutes to stroll through town.
    The Bourlay Historic Nature Park was a find! Donated to the city by Buddy Bourlay, the park features his grandparent's home, a three room shotgun style house with the kitchen sink intact. The other two rooms have photographs of the family and newspaper articles about them. His great grandparents are the Lees, founders of the city. There is a pretty little butterfly garden, which I particularly enjoyed, as well as several short nature trails. We took the Chickee Trail, to the chickee with lumber benches, which had been built by Boy Scout Troop #213. Beyond was a very short boardwalk out to Lake Harris, with lovely views. All together, it was a delightful find! (A chickee is an open platform shelter with a palm thatched roof, originated by the Seminoles.) There is no admission. Allow 30 minutes.Â
    A brief drive to Lake Griffin State Park gave us the opportunity to canoe. A canal opens into the Dead River, which flows into Lake Griffin. We saw some herons and egrets and pretty water plants like water lilies and pickerel. The most exciting sight, though, was a huge alligator sunning on the bank, a few feet from our canoe! We passed him again on the way back! While in the park, we also hiked an interesting nature trail and stopped by the Mammoth Oak. It's one of the oldest in the state, having a spread of 131 feet and a height of 83 feet! It is a majestic sight! Park admission is $5. Canoe rental is $4 per hour. The ranger assured us that it is the cheapest rental in the state! Allow an hour. http://www.floridastateparks.org/lakegriffin/default.cfm
    Fruitland Park is across the street! It's another cute little town, with some charming homes, and was dressing up for Christmas. We smiled at the Furniture Barn with the steer on the roof!
  We're back to the Holiday Inn Express in Tavares for our last night on this tour. We have two queen beds and a fridge, in addition to the coffee maker, and breakfast in the morning. There is both a pool and an exercise room. Cost is $89.
    JJ Fins is a new restaurant in town. We went over because of a recommendation by the Holiday Inn manager. This is a good place! There's a beach volleyball set up, outdoor bar, and very beachy furnishings, including surf board lights. Greg fell for the Bait Box – a combination of shrimp, Alaskan crab claws, crawfish, and raw oysters on a bed of ice. He almost licked the plate he liked it so much! I went with the shrimp and crab stuffing with black beans and rice. Yum! We had wine, and it was 2 for 1. Our tab was $ 56.
Day 5
    This is the last day. We enjoyed our Holiday Inn Express breakfast, and then headed to Clermont and the Lakeridge Winery for a tour and tasting.  Our guide was Jason, an informed and entertaining host. We learned that the winery has vineyards in the panhandle, too. Jason told us that lightening is the biggest crop destroyer.  The best climate for wine is cool and dry. The hills of Clermont give good drainage for the vines.  We tasted several of the wines, finding them all exquisite. While tasting, Jason explained the Five S's: see, swirl, smell, sip, and savor the wine. He told us that each of us is an expert on wine – the wines we like and what we like to pair with them. It was a fun way to learn, and we did buy one or two bottles. There is some type of festival there each month. http://www.lakeridgewinery.com
    We wanted to explore the town of Clermont a little, since it is a historic small town.  http://clermont.govoffice.com/   It's pretty, and has a wonderful little café called Cheeser's Palace. We loved our lunch! Greg had a half tuna salad sandwich with a cup of Tomato Basil Florentine soup.  I had a bowl of the soup. He had coke, and I had tea. Classical music played softly. Georgian style paneling covered the walls. Service was prompt and friendly. The owners, Carol and Amanda are gracious.  The atmosphere was great!  We'll go back there when in the area. Soups, salads and sandwiches were creative and reasonable. Breakfast and chocolates are also available.   Carol told us she is a Certified Cheese Expert and offers cheese classes.  Our total was $19. http://www.cheeserspalace.com
    Next stop is home. It's always nice to sleep in our own bed, sit in our own chairs, have a much wider clothing selection, and be with the family, until the next trip.
    One thing we noticed was how many businesses were closed. Gas stations, restaurants, Laundromats, and motels that we thought would be open because they are important services.  It certainly is a tough economic time.
    We hope that our back roads trip has nudged you into finding at least a daycation destination or week end getaway near your home in Florida. There is so much to discover in our own backyard whatever your interests might be!

Employees, board members, physicians and CEOs from past and present gathered Saturday night, Oct. 6, to celebrate Grand River Hospital District's 50th anniversary. The event was held in the conference center at the hospital and was touted as a "gathering of old friends reminiscing the past and celebrating the future."
Guests enjoyed dinner and a short program, which featured comments about Grand River's past and its future from board president Kip Costanzo and CEO Jim Coombs. Attendees were also treated to a short documentary on the history of local health care in the area, which will be shown later this month on Rifle Cable Channel 10.

WOODBRIDGE, Va. (WUSA9) -- Prince William County police need your help locating a suspect who they say is wanted for abduction and attempted abduction.
Riaz Ahmed Noory, 22, held a 25-year-old woman at his home against her will between September 14 and 21. She told police that she attempted to leave multiple times but the suspect prevented her from doing so, officials said.
The victim told police about the abduction during an investigation into a domestic incident that she had with the suspect, officials said.
On September 25 at 1:09 a.m., police say the victim and Noory had a verbal altercation in which he tried to forcibly remove her from a home in the 1600 block of Thenia Place.
Other witnesses were able to break up the altercation, at which point the accused left the area, officials said.
Officials describe Noory as a white male, 6'0", 190 lbs with black hair and brown eyes. His last known address is in the 12700 block of Hunterbrook Drive in Woodbridge.
Anyone with information relating to the whereabouts of this week's fugitive is urged to call Crime Solvers at 703-670-3700 or 1-866-411-TIPS. You don't have to give your name, just the information. You could earn up to a $1,000 cash reward.

Today is John Lennon's 72nd birthday. By nightfall tonight, hundreds of fans will have made the pilgrimage to Central Park's Strawberry Fields in New York City for a day of remembrance, sing-alongs, and celebrations dedicated to the memory of Lennon. Strawberry Fields, a triangular patch of land dedicated to Lennon by the city of New York and named after the Beatles' 1967 hit, sits directly across the street from the Dakota, Lennon's Manhattan apartment building, where he was gunned down on December 8th, 1980 at the age 40. Today is also Lennon and Yoko Ono's son Sean Lennon's 37th birthday.
Newly released is the Yoko Ono sanctioned book, The John Lennon Letters. The John Lennon Letters was edited by noted Beatles author Hunter Davies and features letters sent by the late Beatle to lovers, friends, family, and fans from every point in his life, and culled from a collection over nearly 300 letters and postcards. Highlights include Lennon's rants to and against the press, Yoko bashers, producer George Martin, and Paul and Linda McCartney.
Out today is the Beatles' long awaited Magical Mystery Tour DVD/Blu ray reissue which is sold in a special deluxe collector's edition. The special 10-inch-by-10-inch deluxe boxed edition includes both the DVD and Blu-ray, as well as a 60-page book with background information, photographs and documentation from the production, and a faithful reproduction of the mono double seven-inch vinyl EP of the film's six then-new Beatles songs, originally issued in the UK to complement the film's 1967 release.

Why must the Zimbra iSync connector mangle the "Me" card by adding every single address and alias for the account to the address book card?
I could understand perhaps adding a single email address to the "Me" card for the account name on the Zimbra server, but really all the aliases, too? On my personal Zimbra account (outside of work) I've got something like 30 aliases that all go to my account, but I don't want them in my "Me" card. At work, some of our Zimbra users have multiple aliases as well, and most people don't take kindly to having address book entries modified.
Venting, I suppose, but I'd be much happier if the "Me" card didn't need to be modified like that.

* Fall Craft: Glitter and Mod Podge Leaves
In our house, everything is better with glitter
and when I let my kids add it to a project, they get really excited!
Fall leaves come in so many beautiful colors.
Why not make them even more beautiful with some colorful glitter?
For this project you will need:
Go exploring with your children and collect some leaves.
Press your leaves gently for a few hours or a day under a book
and some newsprint or paper to help flatten the edges.
Note: they do not have to be completely dry
and if they get too crunchy they will crumble during the next step!
Using a foam brush and working on a protected surface
(we used a scrap of cardboard)
paint one side of a leaf with a layer mod podge.
We found that if you hold the stem of the leaf
and brush on the mod podge onto the leaf gently in one direction
it is easier and doesn't tear the leaf!
Now for the fun part!
Sprinkle some glitter on your leaf, don't be afraid to use more than one color
(that's how we made our rainbow leaves!)
When working with glitter a grown up should supervise,
keep it away from small eyes and curious pets.
We like to use ours over a newspaper, cookie sheet, or...a cardboard box
(or shoe box lid) to help contain the mess.
Once the glitter leaves have dried you can paint the other side
or just display them as they are.
They look really pretty taped to a window
or hung from a garland made out of braided yarn.
To make our garland,
we braided some colorful yarn into a rope then we just tucked-in
and wove the leaf stems into the braid.
Happy Fall.
Enjoy your glittery fall leaves!

Loved this idea! Just made these with my girls for a thematic unit we were doing on the Noah and the flood story. We pretended to be the doves looking for olive leaves to bring back to Noah and ten decorated them.

A 52 year old Bristol man, Thomas Wayne Griffin, died late Wednesday night in a single car traffic crash in Liberty County.
The Florida Highway Patrol says the crash occurred just after 11:00 PM on County Road 67 three miles west of the intersection with State Road 65.
Troopers say Griffin was west-bound of CR-67 when he lost control and his car went onto the grassy shoulder and went into a counterclockwise spin, hit several large pine trees and overturned ejecting the driver.
He died a short while later. The FHP says Griffin was not wearing his seat belt.

On April 10, 1980, Humboldt County REC began day one of not having a lost time accident.
Now, over one million employee work hours later, the electric cooperative celebrated with a recognition dinner Oct. 23, honoring present and past employees for their accomplishments.
The streak has enduring during the tenure of three general managers, several board presidents and numerous employee safety directors.
Through it all, one constant has been an emphasis on safety, REC present and past officials said at the celebration.
REC General Manager Steve Long said the cooperative has built a culture of safety over the years.
"The key elements are supervision, education and training, along with work rules and proper equipment," the general manager said.
"A lot of what we do today was started back in 1980. We're still concerned about reliability, quality of service, commitment to the members and commitment to safety.
"This cooperative has always had the attitude that safety is everyone's business and everyone has taken on that responsibility," Long said.

WASHINGTON – It is still more than a decade away, but the Purple Line could change the way people travel between Montgomery and Prince George's counties.
Currently, passengers wanting to travel from Bethesda to Silver Spring need to take the Metro into downtown D.C. and then back up in Maryland. According to Purple Line Project Manager Mike Madden, the planned Purple Line could cut that travel time significantly and take passengers from Bethesda to downtown Silver Spring in nine minutes.
However, the top challenge for the project is finding the money to build the line.
"We don't have funds to complete the design (and) we don't have any funds for construction," says Madden, who warns that without money, the project could be delayed.
Currently, the Maryland Transit Administration is finishing up an environmental report. After the report is complete, the MTA will request the public's input on the 16-mile line that would run from Bethesda to New Carrolton.
The Purple Line could open by 2030.

To the editor:
By now most people realize, including its former supporters, that the so-called Affordable Care Act, otherwise known as Obama-care, is another government-run train wreck.
When will those in government acknowledge that the least effective and most expensive way to do pretty much anything is for the government to do it?
Some of you may remember when the government mandated flush toilets that would only use a gallon and a half of water per flush. Great idea � saves water, energy and protects the environment, etc. Only problem is, you have to flush two or three times in order for everything to go down.
Obama-care has some of the same traits, except by the time they get it right, if they ever do, many people will have lost their insurance or spent a lot more money getting any insurance, and fewer doctors will be available that will accept any insurance. Hospitals and clinics across the county will go belly-up.
It�s time to cut our losses and cancel the Affordable Care Act before it has a chance to completely destroy what is close to the best medical care in the world.

Tennis' Olympic Omen has already grabbed the scalps of Andy Murray, David Ferrer, and Nikolay Davydenko on the men's side and Svetlana Kuznetsova on the ladies'. You can now add Roger Federer and Serena Williams to the growing list and end all talk of a Wimbledon sequel (drats!).
Fed's quest for a first medal of any kind at the Olympics came to an abrupt end today when he was shocked by American James Blake 6-4, 7-6 (2) in the quarterfinals. James had only won a single set in their previous eight matches but came up big denying Fed another career goal and continuing the Swiss' misery this season.
I'd say Fed's US Open defense is looking pretty awful right now.
ReRe's quest for her first singles gold medal was stopped cold today by "that" Elena Dementiva. The 8-time Grand Slammer gave up a one set lead and fell to the surging Russian 3-6, 6-4, 6-3 in a match that saw a combined 122 unforced errors against 25 winners - ick.
But I guess well all know which Elena came to play today.

After this loss, there's no way he's winning USO now. Which is fine by me because I have a long list of people I would like to see win it, but his slumpy body language and shanked shots were just horrible today. He needs to go regroup somewhere.ReplyDelete
I'm biting my nails for Rafa's match now after all these upsets! I hope they don't make him play at midnight though...
i would say fed is fourth fave to take home the us open now behind rafa, nole, and murray.ReplyDelete
murray is definitely third but not sure who would be first and second. we'll see how rafa and nole play today.
We'll also see how tired they are coming back from China. I really hope Rafa and Nole seed opposite and make the final. My year would be complete. :)ReplyDelete
So sad for Federer.ReplyDelete
Venus also lost. So much for a repeat of the Wimbledon finals.ReplyDelete
Heartbroken for Roger.
I am SO upset for Fed. I really, really hope he would just pick himself up. Get a coach. Take a break. DO SOMETHING! I cringe when I imagine how the media is gonna tear him now.ReplyDelete
I would love to see Rafa against Murray that beat Djoko at Cincy. Minus the war cries Murray did at Wimby, though.

The summer of 2007 was HOT. One of the great things about Toronto summers is that they are sultry all day and all night. The temperature doesn't change at all, and so days and nights flow into each other in a way that's gorgeous and exciting. The other thing I remember is that my friend Matt got us watching How I Met Your Mother at lunchtimes. Full Story

Although baccalaureate degrees in occupational therapy are available at some institutions, the entry standard for practice in the field of occupational therapy is shifting to the master's degree. The University of Alabama does not offer a baccalaureate degree in occupational therapy but does provide programs of study appropriate for entry into master's programs. A student with such an interest may combine degree programs leading to a variety of majors and minors with entrance requirements for master's programs in occupational therapy.
An appropriate example is the master's degree program at The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB). In the UAB program, an applicant who holds a baccalaureate degree in a field other than occupational therapy must have completed an undergraduate program that includes (a) 3 semester hours of expressive arts/media (i.e., theatre, art, music, dance, photography); (b) 15 semester hours of arts and humanities electives (i.e., public speaking, English, foreign languages, or philosophy); (c) 9 semester hours of social and behavioral sciences electives (i.e., sociology, psychology, or anthropology); (d) 3 semester hours of abnormal psychology (PY 358); (e) 3 semester hours of developmental psychology (PY 352); (f) 8 semester hours of human anatomy and physiology (BSC 215 and BSC 216); (g) 3 semester hours of statistics (PY 211 or ST 260); (h) 4 semester hours of electives in chemistry, mathematics, physics, biology, or computer programming; and (i) 2 semester hours of medical terminology (BSC 201). An applicant must also have a minimum GPA of 3.0 for the last 60 hours of coursework; a minimum GPA of 3.0 in the prerequisites; and a Graduate Record Exam score of at least 500 on each section or a Miller Analogies Test score of 50. The sample curriculum below is a guide.
Students interested in the pre–occupational therapy program should contact the health professions advisor in 200 Clark Hall at (205) 348-5902 for additional information and assistance.

If there's three things we love, it's adorable animals, runway gimmicks and tiny versions of regular things. During Toronto Fashion Week, they collided at the Korhani fashion show as several models came down the runway toting precious micropiglets. Sadly, in addition to being cute, pigs are also extremely intelligent and sensitive, so carrying them down a runway to deafening Soft Cell while hundreds of people cheer is probably the most terrifying thing imaginable for them. Also, the micropig industry is fucked up. So! Here is a slideshow of the Korhani runway accompanied by ominous facts about pig keeping from this government issued pamphlet of Guidance on the Legal Obligations of Pig Keepers. Fun fact: you can't bury dead ones! More

The same entity is often referred to in a variety of ways. For example, the camera Canon 600d is also referred to as "canon rebel t3i", the celebrity Jennifer Lopez is also referred to as "jlo" and Seattle Tacoma International Airport is also referred to as "sea tac". These are known as synonyms. Without knowledge of synonyms, many applications like e-commerce search will fail to return relevant results. We leverage the data assets amassed by Bing to automatically mine such synonyms.
One of the main insights is to use Bing's query log to mine synonyms. However, simple techniques like using co-click frequencies are not adequate; we developed new features like pseudo-document similarity and context similarity. Furthermore, we leverage other data sources like web lists, web tables and certain text patterns to mine synonyms.
- We worked closely with Bing and Azure DataMarket teams to release the the Synonym API so that external developers can integrate the synonym knowledge into their applications (e.g., e-commerce search application). It is part of Bing Dev Center along with the other Bing APIs.
- We have integrated our synonym technology into Dynamics AX for Retail to power their e-commerce search functionality.
- Synonyms technology is used by Bing Sports as well to return relevant information when people search for sports teams, players, leagues, etc. For example, when users search for `tampabaybucs', they leverage our synonyms to return "information card" about Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
- Synonym technology is used to enhance product search in Bing Shopping
- Synonym technology is used by Bing Ads for matching keyword queries with advertisements

This coming Sunday evening, September 21, 2014, I will be holding my annual seminar/discussion group on graduate school. The meeting will take place in Mabee 408 from 6:00 PM to around 7:30 PM. The title of the session is: "Graduate School – Getting In, Staying In, Surviving It."
This is an informal discussion and the purpose is to inform OBU students about the process of getting admitted to graduate and professional school and what a grad student can expect to experience while there. The information discussed can apply to students in any degree field so please make plans to attend if you can. The meeting is open to all students and current juniors and seniors are especially encouraged to attend.
If you plan to attend it would be helpful if you could send me a brief email letting me know so that I can be sure to have enough copies of the handout I will distribute.

Jeanie P.E.C. Foster, 65
Jeanie Patricia Elizabeth (Scott) Foster passed on Dec. 27, 2012 after a courageous and valiant battle with declining health, which she fought with dignity and grace.
Jeanie was born on Nov. 18, 1948, the youngest of six children of the late Serena and Charles Scott. She was educated in the Baltimore City Public School System and was a proud graduate of Paul Laurence Dunbar Senior High School (Class of 1966). After graduation, she secured employment with Western Electric while attending Coppin State College. She received her bachelor's degree from Coppin State College in elementary education in 1973. In 1981, she earned a master's in education administration from Johns Hopkins University.
On Aug. 30, 1975, Jeanie was joined in holy matrimony to Edward Foster. A light illuminated their union when Tennille Foster was born. Jeanie was a loving and caring wife and mother who tirelessly worked to create a home for her family.
Jeanie was a worker bee who worked for 39 years in Baltimore City Public Schools. She started her teaching career at William Pinderhughes Elementary School. Always looking for an opportunity to grow, she became a vocational support services team member at Carver Vocational Technical High School, Edmondson-Westside Skill Center and Mergenthaler Vocational Technical High School. She was always a counselor at heart, being a confidante and mentor to countless students at Thurgood Marshall High School, Fairmount Harford High School, Harbor City, Patterson High School and Reginald Lewis High School. Jeanie worked the Summer School, Saturday School and After School programs.
Jeanie loved accessories and jewelry, which resulted in her selling jewelry. Her love of home decoration, art and collection decorative items resulted in the start of her own business, J.P. Foster Design Services.
Her greatest joy was spending time with her family and friends. Jeanie was a lot of fun, always laughing and telling amusing stories. It was especially amusing when you caught her in one of her soapbox moments and she started giving speeches and imitating her father and mother. One thing for sure, aside from being a school counselor, she was a counselor and advisor when you needed guidance in your personal life. She was there for you and never gave you a negative or critical word. Jeanie always believed and assured you that things would work out.
Jeanie was a faithful and prayerful person, who was raised with a strong Christian foundation. She was introduced to God as an early age by her mother.
Her early years were spent at Southern Baptist Church. She was an active member for many years serving as a member of the Young Adult Choir and a greeter. She joined Northwood-Appold United Methodist Church where she became a member of the United Methodist Women's Ministry. Her spiritual path was directed to Huber Memorial Church, where she enjoyed the teaching ministry of her pastor, the Rev. P.M. Smith. She especially grew from attending bible study classes at Huber. The sharing sessions of the Women of Integrity Ministry was a source of inspiration. She exuded energy and joy for life that truly reflected her personal relationship with God.
To have known Jeanie is to have touched the hands of love. The lives of many have been empowered by her courage and strength. Jeanie made an impression on all who knew her by her smile, gregarious nature, and uniquely being just herself.
Jeanie's life will forever be cherished and celebrated by: her husband of thirty-seven years, Edward Foster Jr.; the joy of her life, her daughter, Tennille Foster (Kelly); sister, Jessie Cain Wilson; brothers, Charles Scott Jr. and Randolph Scott. Her brothers, Carl Grant and Joseph Grant preceded her in death. She also leaves to cherish her memory; two sisters-in-law, Mary Jones and Shirley Woodson; one brother-in-law, Samuel Jones; one godchild, Jerome Wright; and many nieces, nephews, cousins and a host of friends.
Jeanie was a motherly influence to her husband's children, who she loved as her own, Edwina Foster, Edward A. Foster III (Anita), Narvi Foster (Kim) and Timothy Foster (Nena). Grandma Jeanie will be missed by her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Jeanie lived a full life and provided her family and friends with stories and memories to share with generations to come.

Chairman Hatch, Senator DeWine, Senator Leahy and distinguished members of the Committee, thank you for affording me this opportunity to testify at this important hearing. My name is Ron Honberg and I am Legal Director for the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill (NAMI). NAMI is the nation's leading voice on mental illness, representing individuals with mental illnesses and their families. Founded in 1979, NAMI today works to achieve equitable services and treatment for more than 15 million Americans living with severe mental illnesses. Hundreds of thousands of volunteers participate in more than one thousand local NAMI affiliates and fifty state organizations to provide education and support, combat stigma and advocate for treatment and services for people with mental illnesses of all ages.
I am also testifying on behalf of the Campaign for Mental Health Reform, a collaboration among leading mental health organizations, including the National Mental Health Association (NMHA), the Bazelon Center for Mental Health Law, the National Association of State Mental Health Program Directors (NASMHPD) and NAMI, working to advance the goals set forth in the report recently released by President Bush's New Freedom Commission on Mental Health.
The New Freedom Commission's report emphasizes what this Committee already knows - that our nation's jails and prisons have become "de-facto" psychiatric treatment facilities. In 1999, the U.S. Department of Justice released a report estimating that 16% of all inmates in our nation's jails and prisons suffer from serious mental illnesses - schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, major depression and other serious psychiatric disorders. (1) And, sheriffs and police officers throughout the country will tell you that they regularly respond to people who are experiencing psychiatric crises in their jobs.
In view of this, the lineup of impressive leaders in the criminal justice field on this panel reflects the reality that the criminal justice community has become our strongest ally - and, in some cases, the leader - behind efforts to promote better mental health treatment and programs to reduce the unnecessary criminalization of people with mental illnesses. The landmark Criminal Justice/Mental Health Consensus Project, convened by the Council of State Governments and participated in by national leaders in law enforcement, corrections, courts, and mental health, is an illustration of just how important these issues have become. (2) And, while compassion for a particularly vulnerable segment of our population is certainly evident in these efforts, the significant involvement of the criminal justice community in efforts to promote jail diversion, better treatment in facilities, and community reentry services for offenders with mental illnesses reflects something more - recognition that reducing the involvement of individuals with mental illnesses in criminal justice systems benefits not only those individuals but criminal justice systems and society as a whole.
Most individuals with mental illnesses who come into contact with law enforcement or criminal justice systems are not violent criminals. Most are charged with non-violent crimes or engaged in non-violent but bizarre behaviors that have attracted the attention of law enforcement officers. And, most of these individuals did not have access to the treatment and services they needed that very likely would have prevented their involvement with the criminal justice system.
Mental illness is the leading cause of disability in the world and in American society. (3,4) Yet sadly, fewer than half of all people with these illnesses have access to even minimally adequate treatment and services. (5) With treatment, recovery is very possible and most people with these illnesses can live productive and meaningful lives. Without treatment, the consequences are frequently horrendous - homelessness, dependence on families and/or public benefits, suicides - or involvement with criminal justice systems.
It is frankly unfair - and very poor public policy - to saddle criminal justice systems with responsibility for responding to people with mental illnesses in crisis. Police officers around the country spend many hours transporting people to hospitals - and sitting for hours in emergency rooms - only to see the same people back out in the streets again the next day engaging in the same behaviors that attracted the attention of law enforcement in the first place. The hours these officers spend in responding to people with mental illness are hours that they are unable to spend fighting crime.
Criminal justice systems and personnel are also unequipped to respond to people with serious psychiatric needs. Traditional correctional responses to individuals unable to follow the rules of the system - such as administrative segregation, solitary confinement or use of restraints - tend to exacerbate severe psychiatric symptoms. Yet, jails and prisons are not set up to provide psychiatric treatment.
In 2000, this Committee demonstrated its commitment to the cause of reducing the unnecessary criminalization of people with mental illnesses by enacting "America's Law Enforcement and Mental Health Project," a bill that authorized funding for Mental Health Courts. This bill represents the next logical step forward.
Mr. Chairman, we applaud you for scheduling a hearing to tackle this troubling problem. We are also deeply grateful to Senator DeWine for introducing legislation that provides an important approach to badly needed community reform. This legislation wisely recognizes that solutions to the problem of criminalization of people with mental illnesses will ultimately be found in communities across this country. They will be solutions that take account of the strengths and the weaknesses in the local mental health systems, the criminal and juvenile justice systems, and often other systems as well. No two communities will necessarily bring the same needs, resources, capabilities, and vision to those problems. But what the federal government can do - and what good legislation must do - is to provide support for a wide range of collaborative community programs to ensure that low-level offenders with mental illnesses avoid unnecessary detention and incarceration, and provide avenues for effective and appropriate treatment.
The Campaign is gratified by the Committee's continuing interest in addressing the needs of people with mental illnesses who come into contact with criminal justice systems. With key elements listed below in mind, we are eager to continue working with you to advance this important initiative and, once it is enacted, secure needed funding. I would like to use the remainder of my time to highlight principles of particular importance to the mental health community.
A very strong feature of S. 1194 is that grant recipients would be required to engage in comprehensive planning and develop partnerships between mental health, criminal justice and other key systems in states or communities that would receive grants. Without collaborative efforts of this kind, the most creative approaches to addressing the mental health needs of non-violent juvenile or adult offenders with mental illnesses will not succeed. The Campaign therefore applauds the sponsors of this legislation for recognizing, and proposing a framework for fostering collaborative partnerships in grantee communities.
As stated above, the growing numbers of individuals with mental illnesses in criminal justice systems frequently reflect lack of available mental health services and supports in communities. A critical component of any successful approach to jail diversion or community reentry therefore must include access to treatment and services such as medications, case management services, housing and rehabilitative services. Children and adolescents with mental disorders who come in contact with the juvenile justice system must also have access to appropriate educational services.
Many approaches have emerged around the country to divert low level, non-violent offenders with mental illnesses into treatment. Some of these are "pre-booking" programs, i.e. programs that link people with services before they ever get caught up with criminal justice or court systems. Others are "post-booking" programs, i.e. programs that link people with services after they are arrested. While both of these approaches have proven very effective, it is always best to link people with services before they are arrested or fall under the jurisdiction of the Courts.
For example, the nationally renowned Memphis Police Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) program is designed to link people with treatment in lieu of arrests. This program has been so successful that it has been replicated in scores of communities around the country. Key to the success of this program is the collaboration between the police and the mental health system. In Memphis, police receive extensive training in recognizing the signs and symptoms of mental illnesses and in crisis intervention techniques. They know how to respond to these individuals in ways that defuse rather than escalate these crises. Whenever possible (i.e. when the individual in question has not committed a serious crime), the police transport the individual to a specially designed psychiatric emergency room at a local hospital, rather than arrest and charge him/her with a crime.
The Memphis CIT program has achieved remarkable results. Research shows that this program, first implemented in 1988, has resulted in:
A wide range of models exists for responding to low-level offenders after they have been arrested. For example, Mental Health Courts have been established in more than 70 communities in the country.
As with other forms of diversion, the effectiveness of these Courts is very much dependent upon the availability of mental health services and supports. For example, many of the individuals under the jurisdiction of the Broward County (Ft. Lauderdale) Mental Health Court in Florida are homeless. The Court has struggled to link individuals with community placement options. Using her position as political leverage, the Judge who presides over the Court successfully appealed to the Florida state legislature for funding for a three year program to develop a residential treatment facility, resources for intensive case management, and independent housing options for individuals within the jurisdiction of the Court.
The Federal Government can provide important help to communities that have invested in jail diversion strategies by continuing the progress that has been made in addressing chronic homelessness. The work that Senator DeWine and Senator Bond have done in pushing HUD to develop more permanent supportive housing and President Bush's Samaritan Initiative are important steps forward.
Mental Health Courts are not the only effective means for providing court-based jail diversion services. Other approaches place less responsibility for supervision with judges and more responsibility with mental health or other systems. Programs such as CASES in New York involve collaborations between parole and probation and mental health providers to coordinate mental health treatment, substance abuse treatment, and other vital services for individuals with mental illness who violate parole for reasons related to their illnesses. (6)
The successful reintegration of individuals with mental illnesses back into communities following incarceration is frequently hampered by lack of services upon reentry. This is particularly unfortunate because lack of services is frequently what led to involvement with the criminal justice system.
S. 1194 attempts to address this crucial problem by allowing grantees to use funds "for transitional, re-entry programs for those released from any penal or correctional institution." (Sect. 4, Part HH, (b)(5)(I)(iv)). The Campaign applauds the Sponsors of this legislation for recognizing this need and making provisions for the use of grant funds to support these vital services.
We would like to emphasize two particularly important components of discharge planning and reentry services - the first is the need to initiate these services prior to discharge, the second is the importance of restoring vital income supports and medical benefits to individuals upon their discharge. Restoration of Medicaid or comparable medical benefits is particularly important so that individuals will be able to pay for medications and other important mental health services.
NAMI and the Campaign greatly appreciate this opportunity to testify on this important issue. Enactment of legislation and appropriation of funds to give those on the front lines vitally needed new tools to avert the needless criminalization of juveniles and adults with mental illnesses who are not violent criminals offer the promise of both saving lives and improving the quality of life in our communities. As the President's New Freedom Commission on Mental Health has underscored, our country can and must do a better job of helping people across the country who require treatment. With that powerful report as a call to action, this Committee has an extraordinary opportunity to help communities establish alternatives to incarceration.
We stand ready to be partners in working with the committee to move legislation to make that hope a reality.

Fake Turquoise8211; China is now making fake Turquoise! They are actually using cement, like concrete that is used to make sidewalks. They are mass producing fake Turquoise into nuggets, rock, imitation stones and who knows what else.
Previously, China was using chalk to make fake Turquoise by injecting it with color and then resins. Now, they have gone all of the way. Is this intended for costume Jewelry or will this be marked in the same manor fake Turquoise from chalk has been.
Our article also includes cheap Turquoise Jewelry, dishonest Turquoise Traders and a warning to Turquoise Jewelry buyers.
We have created a fake Turquoise educational page, take a look!

Hello everybody
I am trying to use Zimbra Desktop on Ubuntu 8.04 instead of Evolution, running on a Dell laptop with a high res screen (1920 x 1200). At this resolution the default font sizes of Zimbra are miniscule and Zimbra unusable. Could somebody please kindly explain how I can change the default font sizes (I have searched in the Forums to no avail)?
With grateful thanks.

I'm evaluating options for migrating our ZCS Network Edition 6.0.15 installation to 8.x (either ZCS NE or ZCA (Appliance)). We've got about 2.500 domains and about 20.000 mailboxes.
I know about the ZeXtras toolkit, but it doesn't work for me (login to admin console hangs/doesn't work - I'm in contact with them). Because of that, I'm looking for other options. One would be to use zmztozmig; for this, I read the Zimbra to Zimbra Migration wiki page.
It says:
Account preferences, I might understand and accept, especially seeing that we're going from Zimbra 6 to 8.Quote:
