New Editor-in-Chief
Journal of Association for Information Science and Technology (JASIST)
June 17, 2008
Dr. Blaise Cronin has been selected to be the new Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology (JASIST), effective January 1, 2009. Dr. Cronin succeeds Dr. Donald Kraft who has been editor since 1985 and has now retired from Louisiana State University. Dr. Cronin is Rudy Professor of Information Science and Dean of the School of Library and Information Science at Indiana University and has been Editor of ASIS&Ts Annual Review of Information Science and Technology since Volume 36 (2002).
Describing his vision of JASIST, Dr. Cronin said, JASIST is the preeminent journal of its kind in the world, and the enduring record of our fields intellectual focus and evolution. Under Don Krafts editorship JASIST has flourished, growing in terms of size, number of annual issues and breadth of subject coverage. The institutional, geographic and disciplinary affiliations of contributing authors are more varied than ever, reflecting the internationalizing of interest in information science and also the perceived attractiveness of JASIST as a publication outlet of first, not last, resort. In short, the maturation of our field, both scholastically and professionally, is mirrored in the pages of the journal. The challenge is to maintain a balance between the known and the novel, the canonical and the emergent; the goal is to enlarge the journals footprint, prudently and selectively, by connecting more tightly with cognate academic communities where the study of information is also a central intellectual concern.
In announcing the selection, ASIS&T President Nancy Roderer said, It is a wonderful indication of the depth and vitality of ASIS&T that we have one Award of Merit Winner as editor followed by another winner of our highest honor. ASIS&T is fortunate indeed to have two such outstanding individuals leading the profession and ASIS&T as information science becomes more and more important.
Because the Annual Review of Information Science and Technology has a very long lead time before appearing in print, Dr. Cronin will continue for the interim to edit both ARIST and JASIST until a new ARIST editor is selected.

Man, I really needed this per monitor DPI stuff two years ago. I had a Vaio Z which had a full 1080p 13" screen, about 170DPI effectively, but I frequently used it on a regular 23" 1080p external monitor. The result was that I was constantly changing the DPI setting (which meant logging out and back in) based on what monitor I was primarily working on at any one time.
I'm really, really happy this support has finally been added to Windows. Props, guys!

Martins Ferry coach Dave Bruney has been doing this a long time so he knows better than to start thinking about St. Clairsville, the Purple Riders' opponent in two weeks.
Instead the sole focus will be on Edison as Martins Ferry tries to rebound from last week's setback to Indian Creek.
Martins Ferry (5-2) sits at No. 6 in the Ohio Division IV, Region 15 rankings and nothing is assured. Points will be there for the taking in the final two weeks with St. Clairsville and Bellaire on the schedule but they will mean nothing if the Purple Riders can't take care of business this week at home.
''We always practice well,'' Bruney said. ''We are relatively young so we are excited about seeing our kids get better. They work hard. Looking ahead is never a problem for us. We never talk about the game other than the one we have coming up. It sounds cliche, but that is how we do things.''
Edison may be 1-6, but the Wildcats did show some life against St. Clairsville despite missing 12 starters. The Red Devils won, 56-27, but that is better than most teams have done against arguably the best team in the Ohio Valley.
Nolan Marcus threw for 184 yards and three touchdowns, and also ran for a score in last Friday's loss.
''They spread the field and run a difficult offense to defend,'' Bruney said. ''They can stretch you horizontally and vertically. The quarterback is a good runner and a good passer.
''We know they have had some problems and we are not close to being healthy. We expect them to give us their best.''
Bruney has been getting good quarterback play from Eric Flowers, who stepped in early in the season for an injured Tyler Strama.
The junior has thrown for 801 yards, completing 65 percent of his passes.
''Eric Flowers has done a very good job,'' Bruney said. ''When you lose a starter early on you don't know what to fully expect. We were working Eric in early, he was taking about a third of the snaps. But he has been able to step in and play above most people's expectations.
''The first thing we ask our players is to take care of their position. Then assume the leadership role and he's done that.''
When Flowers isn't throwing, he has a talented backfield led by Brandon Laughman, Marcus Sutton, and Sean McGee.
The Purple Riders defense has also been stout with two shutouts.
Edison is giving up 35.1 points per game.

Between the soft cotton against her skin to the non-restrictive stretch around her ankle and lower shin (they never cut into swollen ankles), she is a Buster Brown snob! These socks are not easy to find and when I have managed to find them elsewhere, the price is always higher. So a big thank you from me and especially from Mom! March 15, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Goldeneagle Best socks ever When I was a child my Grandmother always got me Buster Brown socks. After I was an adult, I couldn't find them because I had forgotten the name. All I remember was they were socks I loved very much. Well after I became a Diabetic and was having swelling in my feet because my knees were bone on bone. I foud that I couldn't stand socks with elastic in them, they would make my legs and feet look like the Michelin man or stay puff marshmallow man. I also noticed the elastic caused my legs to itch like crazy and my feet would get really hot with what ever they were made from, even the so called diabetic socks. Then I looked on line for country store's and found your website.so I went to it and was looking at what you had in your store. Then I asked for your catalog and when I got it I saw you had my favorite socks. So I decided that as soon as possible I was going to order them. As soon as I got them I had my husband put a pair on my feet, and I even slept with them on and not one time did my feet get hot or even made them look like I had a band around my ankles and my feet stayed not to hot or too cold. I LOVE THEM!! Like I said They are the best socks ever. And I'm not getting any other kind. March 6, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Okie Nana One and Only After developing Neuropathy I tried brand after brand of expensive diabetic socks which were all excruciatingly painful for my feet. Thankfully I tried these and found some relief. The cotton is gentle enough and the knit is smooth and small gauge which is less painful. March 6, 2016

An emerging Asian market with a special relationship to the European Union and close ties with the Middle East, Turkey's strategic geopolitical position is a place where multinational players want to be. The pharmaceutical industry is no exception.
With a growing, aging population and a young, highly skilled workforce, Turkey's demographics are also a draw. Economically, the country boasts a GDP topping more than 8 percent in 2010 and 2011 and is weathering the global economic crisis better than many of its European neighbors.
Nonetheless, major national healthcare reforms, drastic price reductions, and market access delays have made Turkey's pharmaceutical market a particularly challenging place the past few years.
But with a new budget period beginning in 2013 and signs that the government may be looking to turn a corner, the industry is preparing for the day when Turkey becomes one of the next big pharma countries.
First, the country's three social security schemes were united under the Social Security Institute (SGK). Then, in 2008, the Universal Health Insurance law was passed, aiming to make healthcare widely available. Finally, in 2010, the family practitioner system was implemented, providing low-cost care by local doctors to citizens across the country.
Ayşe Çetinel Sapmaz has been the managing director of Janssen, the pharmaceutical company of J&J, in Turkey for the past 11 years and witnessed the dramatic change in the country's healthcare system. "Access to healthcare has increased dramatically—and this is of course something that we view positively. People are no longer left waiting in queues; they have access to doctors, they have access to treatment. From a societal point of view, things are moving in the right direction," she said.
According to the SGK, expenditures on pharmaceuticals increased from TRY 7.8 billion (USD 2.3 billion) in 2004 to TRY 15.8 billion (USD 8.7 billion) in 2011.

Ultra realistic piano sound and feel meets portability.
The Yamaha P-155 digital piano offers professional quality sound with Yamaha's legendary piano touch. Whether you're practicing at home or away, performing solo or in a band you'll have top-shelf Yamaha digital piano technologies at your fingertips. This Yamaha digital piano has advanced sampling functions and the ultra-expressive Graded Hammer (GH) keyboard. Now you don't have to choose between portability and piano quality. The P-155B version has a black finish and ebony top board
Hand-crafted Pianos, High-quality Voices
To ensure the finest grand piano sound for the P-155, Yamaha went straight to the source: Yamaha's finest 9-foot concert grand, a handpicked CFIIIS. Next, a master piano technician painstakingly tuned and regulated the CFIIIS to sonic perfection. Then Yamaha applied their Pure CF Sampling technology to accurately capture every aspect of the CFIIIS sound, keeping post-processing to an absolute minimum to maintain sonic integrity throughout. The result is a truly authentic grand piano sound with powerful, dynamic bass, warm mid-range, and crystal-clear highs.
Layer upon Layer
Yamaha's Dynamic Stereo Sampling (DSS) technology employs 4-level piano samples to enhance expression. Depending on how hard you strike a note, you will hear one of four piano recordings on each and every key for an unprecedented level of dynamic range and tonal expression. Playing softly doesn't simply lower the volume; it produces the quiet recordings of piano notes. And likewise, playing more forcefully triggers separate samples at different levels.
Ascension to Detail
If you close your eyes while playing a grand piano, you'll find its sound is a bit more complicated than note-on, note-off. Yamaha has gone to great lengths to capture these sonic artifacts in the P-155. Their meticulous efforts include recording a felt damper coming to rest on a vibrating string when a note is released (Key Off Samples), or reproducing the sound of the open strings that wash over your performance when using the damper pedal (Stereo Sustain Samples and Damper Resonance).
A Touch Above
When you look inside a grand piano you'll see different-sized strings, which require different-sized hammers with require different weights. The keyboard of the P-155 uses Yamaha's GH (Graded Hammer) technology to reproduce the true feel of a grand piano keyboard action, with heavier touch in the lower keys, lighter touch in the higher keys, and subtle gradations of weight and response throughout. Thanks to the input of concert-level, professional pianists during its development, the GH keyboard features superb balance and remarkable consistency. Performing or practicing on a GH keyboard properly develops and maintains an artist's technique for making the transition between P-155 and an acoustic grand.
Perfection Made Practical
As a full-featured digital piano, the P-155 gives you all you need for practice, playing, and performance. It has an internal high-power, two-channel (12W + 12W) amplifier with high-performance speakers built in. This lets you and your audience hear the authentic sounds in their full glory. Is your audience on another continent? Share your musical ideas and masterpieces easily with others by recording your performance to any attached USB storage device (not included). Songs are stored as Standard MIDI Files (SMF) and can be emailed to and played back on any Mac or PC.

Quarterback Geno Smith and receiver Tavon Austin have a chance to make some history for the West Virginia University football program tonight, should they both be selected in the first round of the NFL Draft.
The school, which has generally succeeded in getting players into the NFL, has never had two first-round picks in the same season.
Smith figures to be the first quarterback taken, though there's no guarantee that will be in the first round the way things have shaken the past few months. The last time a quarterback wasn't selected in the first round, Michigan State's Tony Banks was the first pick in the second round of the 1996 draft. You have to go back to 1988 to find the only other time it's happened, when Ohio's State's Tom Tupa was the first quarterback taken ... in the third round.
Austin already has people predicting he'll be the league's Offensive Rookie of the Year. Most mock drafts have him going in the 13-16 range.
WVU has had nine first-round picks in its history and three since 2000 in Bruce Irvin (2012), Adam Jones (2006), and Anthony Becht (2000).
The Mountaineers came close in 1990 when Renaldo Turnbull was picked in the first round and Reggie Rembert went in the second. More recently, Jones was selected in the first round and Chris Henry fell to the third in 2006.
If you're looking for the gold standard of WVU drafts, at least among the top three rounds, that took place in 1956, when Joe Marconi was taken in the first round, Bruce Bosley went in the second round, and both Fred Wyant and Sam Huff were selected in the third round.
The most players West Virginia has had selected in one draft was eight in 1954. Since the draft was cut to seven rounds in 1994, WVU's best draft was 1999, when six players were selected.
Back to today, Smith and Austin took different paths to the draft. While no one could be sure Smith would be an NFL-type player, he had everything college coaches wanted when he signed with WVU out of Miramar High School in Florida.
Coming off a senior season in which he threw for 4,205 yards, 42 touchdowns, and five interceptions, and a career that produced numbers that dwarf any other QB in school history, scouts drool over Smith with the usual lines: His size (6-foot-2, 208), his ability to ''make all the throws,'' that he's a student of the game, and he's an intense competitor.
Austin's path was different. Though he was highly recruited, his size (5-8, 173 today) left him a bit under the radar of most NFL general managers early in his career. He arrived at WVU as a running back, but with guys like Noel Devine already in the backfield, he was moved to receiver to take advantage of his speed and hands.
There were questions near the end of his sophomore season that he might be moved back to running back but then head coach Bill Stewart said he preferred bigger back and was leaning that way. When Dana Holgorsen came aboard the next season with his high-energy passing attack, there was little question where Austin's future lay.
During the last two seasons, Austin caught 215 passes for 2,475 yards and 20 touchdowns. He added another 1,751 yards and three touchdowns on kickoff returns and found himself in the top three of total yardage in college football both seasons.
The NFL GMs took notice.
They still question his size, but they notice he never takes big hits. His speed jumps off any video and it's even more impressive live.
He's got a chance to be the highest-picked receiver in WVU history.
Not to be forgotten in all of this is fellow receiver Stedman Bailey, another player who produced the types of numbers NFL scouts love, but his size (5-10, 188) are working against him.
He's generally looked at as a third-round pick.
Either way, it has the potential to be an historic night for the Mountaineers and the draft.

|Dragon football improves to 3-0 with home blowout
|Written by Kyle Arnoldy
HHS football is off to an impressive start after putting on another one-sided show Friday, Sept. 13 at home. The Dragons quickly pulled away from Highland en route to a 42-6 victory as Holyoke stays perfect after three games.
After moving only three yards in the first three plays to open the game, Highland was forced to punt from their own 23-yard line. A short punt gave the Dragons excellent field position from Highland's 42-yard line in Holyoke's opening offensive possession.
Bradley Cumming outruns a Highland defender early
It didn't take long for HHS to establish the running game with two rushes combining for 20 yards to open the drive. A 13-yard completion by Trevor Dalton to T.J. Gertner pinned the Dragons at the 9-yard line.
After a holding penalty placed HHS just inside of the red zone, running back Bradley Cumming found space for a 19-yard dash to the end zone with just under eight minutes remaining in the first quarter. Jorge Varela sent the PAT through the uprights to give Holyoke a 7-0 edge.
A Husky fumble recovered by Wyatt Powell once again gave the Dragons favorable field position in Highland territory. The rushing attack continued as Dylan Kotch rumbled for a 12-yard gain before Saul Ramos sprinted in from 20 yards out for another Holyoke touchdown. Varela added the PAT for a 14-0 HHS lead with 5:40 left in the opening quarter.

Rob Carr to me: "The TV Series is 3 part documentary on cycling in Dublin. The main premise of the series will be to look at how a cycling culture can be developed in Dublin and what that might look like. To that end, one programme will be a kind of travelogue where we go on a journey from Dublin to Amsterdam via London by bike, ferry and train. We will follow Ciaran Fallon (the new Cycling Officer at Dublin City Council) on his journey as he meets various people involved in the cycling cultures of London and Amsterdam to see what is happening from a cycling perspective in those cities and what Dublin can learn from them. We are of course hoping you will be one of these people…
From DCTV: "As Dublin has grown wealthier we have become carcooned basing our personal and city transport system on the car†said director Barra Hamilton. "We know this isn't working – but what is the alternative and how do we get there? That's the question we set out to answer with this documentary. We spent months talking to academics and elected officials, council planners and staff, campaigners and cyclists – and through the production process of TV we've constructed a convincing case and viable plan to recast Dublin as a cyclable city.†"The Pedal Project is an ongoing debate emerging into public view in all its complexity and variety for the first time†said co-director Rob Carr. "We are inviting people to contribute to the process. From the reasons we should, and shouldn't, insist on cycling helmets to how we design our roads to create dedicated spaces for cycling while ensuring 'permeable' road systems with a mix of transport forms – The Pedal Project offeres a tool for people to use in instigating wide ranging discussion on what we want from our city."
The end result is fabulous. The Pedal Project does indeed make the case for much needed change and does so by covering all the important angles. And I think it's safe to say that in this series Dublin is interchangeable for many other cities around the world. Go watch and after you finish, don't hesitate to see the other parts: One Less Car & Two Wheeled City (those are external video links, but you can instead navigate to those parts inside the embedded player). Oh, and just fyi, the Amsterdam part starts at 13:43, but don't skip ahead, watch it in full.

Hello Cartographers,
As you suspect, I'm looking for someone willing to make a map for a game I'm making. It will be a free online not-massive-at-all multi-player role-playing game, where the players are all drow (evil dark elfs) living in caves, caverns and underground cities. The map I'm in need of is kind of a important element - it will work more or less like the world map from Fallout (1, 2, Tactics) games, players are free to move anywhere on the map, but at any time they can stop and go from the 2d map to a 3d realtime 'level' (or forced to one of those after encountering some hostile pc/npc).
The map I need would have to be quite big, 6 or 7 large caves big enough to house a village, keep or even a city, a few smaller ones, a network of tunnels connecting them and as a little bonus a small maze with square rooms and straight walls.
Basically if the word 'Underdark' means anything to You, then what I need is exactly a map of a Underdark-ish cavern complex.
I'd love to have something like Djekspeks' 'perspective' map, but I feel I could be wishing for too much for a unpaid job..
...so a top-down map is what I should be asking for, something like this:
mixed with something like this:
I don't want the map to be realistic, or rich in colour, in fact I'd rather have it in a yellow-tinted greyscale (old paper cliché) because I'll most like need to save it as a dds file (a lossy file format, that tends to drop unique colours).
Quality & Size.
2048x2048 would be the optimal size as far as pixel goes. The scale of the map could be 1pixel=1meter, so the whole map 2x2km (~1.3miles). The map should be flat - so when two corridors meet, they do it on the same height, there can't be any situations where one would go over, and the other under. Tunnels can't be too narrow - 10 pixels minimum.
Time Constraints.
As-soon-as-possible. If it could be done next week - great! If it can be done next month - still great! More then 3 moths? - not so great.
Permission to use for a single tittle is all I'm asking for. The artist will retain all the rights, the map can have a signature or a watermark (just as long as it doesn't obscure the map). CC BY-ND would be a bit of a problem - I will need to add text with names over the map, and also, the map is too big to be displayed all at once, so it will be viewed in a smaller gizmo with a fade-to-black border - that could be considered a 'derivative work'. Any other CC license is ok, even the Non Commercial - my game will be free.
If the game would ever go commercial, then I will ask for a new license and offer a fee (but let's be honest here- the chances for that are lotto-wining low).
A reply in this topic would be best, I'm new at the forum so I can't use PMs yet. You can also send me a note on deviant art (pistacja69.deviantart.com) or a mail pistacja69[insert_at_sign_here]gmail.com
Sample Layout:
I've made a layout of a cave dungeon for testing, you can use it as a base for making the final map or just to have a better understanding of what I need:

Michelle Basch, wtop.com
WASHINGTON – Several unofficial inaugural balls take place Sunday, Jan. 20 and run as late as 1, 2 or even 3 a.m.
But Metrorail won't stay open late to get those partygoers home.
Why is that?
The WTOP Answer Desk looked into it.
Metro began planning for the inauguration nearly a year ago, and has been working closely with the Presidential Inaugural Committee for months.
Metro spokesman Dan Stessel says because there aren't official inaugural events late Sunday, the Metrorail system will close at its normal time: Midnight.
Those celebrating into the wee hours will want to keep this in mind.
Stessel says Metro's hours for inauguration weekend were announced in October.
"There have been no concerns raised with us from non-official events about our hours of service," says Stessel.
On Monday, Jan. 21, Metrorail will operate for 22 hours, from 4 a.m. until 2 a.m. Tuesday.

Recently my stats and services monitor stopped working. I had checked logs but couldn't ever find anything. After troubleshooting for hours I finally just formatted the server, reinstalled Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and re downloaded Zimbra 8.0.3 again. Didn't touch anything after Ubuntu server installed, and went to installing Zimbra. Apt-get'd any dependencies that Zimbra needed during install and carried on. Install went smooth but still services and stats were broken. This time though it showed in error in the admin panel.
After googling it I noticed that it seem to be a common thing. Tried fixing permissions, regenerating ssh keys, and running zmsyslogsetup. Still nothing. I then just decided to downgrade back to 8.0.0, maybe there was something wrong with 8.0.3? Nope. Still the same problem as before. Tried everything again and still nothing. I swear I've done everything, even threw that server in a DMZ, took down its firewall, reformatting it multiple times, and sacrificed a lamb to the gods. Does anybody have any pointers or ideas on what I should do?Code:Message: system failure: Unable to read logger stats Error code: service.FAILURE Method: [unknown] Details:soap:Receiver

I've managed to get a date for Valentines Day – how did I manage that….oh yes, the online dating site. He's a music producer (The music man to you), 35 years old, curly hair, cute and very funny, actually too funny.
He decided to skip the email banter and just called me, which is better really, why would you want to have a constant ream of email chatter? If you want to know someone, move it forward and talk, voice on voice action is not that scary, it's actually a really good way to start getting to know someone.
So, the Music Man and I chatted at great length, it's been a week and we can't stop laughing. We seem pretty similar, direct, at times bossy, silly and smart. And boy can he talk!
With a week's worth of calls and no hint of really meeting I asked him if he wanted to join me on a first date for dinner. He accepted immediately, good sign I thought. I now have a date on the 14th February and will share the love fest with other romantic diners across the city.
I actually did think about inviting him around to mine and cook us dinner, but thought that wasn't really wise, he is after all still a stranger, so instead dinner for two in town somewhere.
I was speaking to Jones and JG who are both planning on having an evening in with their other halves and didn't want to go overboard, but wanted to create something special. I suggested a number of things and recommended that they try to create an evening that's grown up, understated and comfortable. I also said that the effort should be joint, and they shouldn't be expected to do everything themselves – so partners help out.
With that in mind Jones and JG, how about this as your solution to have a Valentines evening in, a recipe, decorating ideas and a couple of fun suggestions:
1. Decide what you want to cook and keep in simple. I suggest two ideas, the first is from a new recipe book that I've fallen in love with, it's called Food of the Grand Trunk Road and features recipes from rural India. The best dishes are the lamb and chick pea curry (page 9), potato curry with deep fried bread (page 58) and my ultimate favourite, gazak (a peanut and pistachio brittle on page 62). If that's too much then how about making a simple yet tasty Italian with a little help from Loyd Grossman sauces, the tomato & basil is pretty good, just add some pancetta, lots of garlic and hey pesto…see what I did there!
2. With your menu sorted make an effort with the dining table. This is not just your everyday quick meal, plus you said you want to create something special, so either get out your best crockery from the cupboard or invest in some nice dishes for a change. Brabantia do a great range, super stylish and elegant (http://www.gettogether-brabantia.com/home_en.html) plus they well made and will last for a long time. I picked a few simple white dishes, napkins and a heavyweight cutlery set and played around with my own table setting.
Light your room so that is feel warm and mellow. The best way is usually with candles. Go for a scented candle like the AromaWorks, a new range of luxury candle, which are free from both paraffin and synthetic wax, check them out on www.aroma-works.com the best ones are the Yin and Yang containing ylang ylang and patchouli, and ho leaf and nutmeg.
3. When you have enjoyed dinner you'll of course want to have dessert. I've found that the English Cheesecake Company (http://www.englishcheesecake.com) have created mini Valentines Cheesecakes, which you can share. They are deliciously rich and perfect for sharing, so you'll have no trouble there.
4. Now with dinner out of the way, you probably want to clear up and put everything in the dishwasher so you can cosy up and watch Brief Encounter, but don't you want to spend time getting closer to your loved one? Now I'm not suggesting you re-create the scene from the movie Ghost and get messy with clay, but take that idea and wash the dishes together, make it fun and romantic. You don't need to worry about your hands getting dry either as I found a bottle of Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness to keep your hands ever so soft. Plus it comes in aloe and cucumber scent, so all round kind. Have some fun with the bubbles and before you get dirt, get clean!
5. Dishes washed and hands feeling soft, time to get cosy and even closer. I think there is nothing better than watching a classic black and white romance on the big screen at home. TV is standard these days, so suggest you project your movie on to your wall and have an experience. You don't have to blow the budget and buy a brand spanking new expensive projector, but you can get hold of the Optoma DLP Pico Projector for £157.99 from Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field-keywords=DLP+Pico+Projector&x=10&y=24
It's a pocket sized, easily portable and bright enough to project on most blank walls, plus you can take it with you anywhere you go, now that's handy!
Start the movie and get snuggled up under a big chucky warm blanket. If you don't have one, get one, it's cold out there are you'll need it. I saw a really nice one from Sheridan, a luxurious Australian bed-linen brand that is stocked in Selfridges, House of Fraser and online at http://www.sheridanuk.com/. They have a great range of snuggly blankets and accessories including the Terrel 100% wool chunky knit throw.
And with every romantic cosy movie, you need a box of chocolates to share and indulge, so try this new range from www.prettyidle.com where you can get a box, which has a pull out draw of artisan chocolates, yum!
6. Now I'll leave it to you when it comes to bed time activity, but what I will say is have some fun with classic Love Heart sweets from SwizzelsMatlow – it's just a bit of fun.
7. The romance need not stop the morning after. Have breakfast with the heart-warming new bagel from New York Bakery Co. with a limited edition heart shaped bagel, available exclusively through their Facebook page www.facebook.com/newyorkbakery and make it special by serving it on a heart filled plate, something a little fun from Emma Bridgewater www.emmabridgewater.co.uk
8. To finish off make a perfect latte or cappuccino with the DeLonghi icona available at Amazon from £113 http://www.amazon.co.uk/DeLonghi-ECO310-R-Espresso-Machine-Scarlet/dp/B0029NZW4A/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1328972224&sr=8-3
Now, if that's not enough to help you create some romance at home I'm not sure what else will. Enjoy and Happy Valentines Day!
Love and Kisses from Anotherdatingdisaster / @AnotherDD

No retreat
Campaign 2008 | Conservative reaction to the GOP's defeat
"No retreat" Continued...
In the hours before and after results were in, WORLD writers around the country spoke with a variety of leading conservative political and religious minds, asking for reaction to Barack Obama's victory but also seeking answers to this question: What should conservative Christians focus on politically over the next four years?
(Editor's Note: What follows are the full comments of these conservative political and religious leaders, expanding upon what appeared in the print edition of the magazine.)
Robert George, Princeton professor of jurisprudence, specialist on constitutional law and political philosophy
"The idea that we would retreat into churches or into insular communities and abandon our responsibilities as citizens is a daft and dangerous idea. There's no way that Christian families can insulate themselves from the culture. … There's no retreating to a corner. … Culture shapes conduct. Law shapes culture.
"Of course the central human right of our domestic politics is the question of abortion and embryo destructive research and the right to life of the unborn child. There's no turning away from that. ... The second issue is the issue of marriage and family. This must remain central and we must redouble our efforts across the country at both a state and a national level to protect the institution of marriage.
"The best thing we can do to fight poverty in this country-not the only thing, but the best thing we can do-is rebuild the institution of marriage and the family.
"We need to encourage people to be citizen-statesmen, that is citizens-not professional politicians-who are prepared, often at great cost to themselves, to stand for public office. ... More people, who share our convictions, need to be willing to take up the burden of running for office. We need more activism. We need more love-inspired action in supporting the candidates who will stand for the sanctity of human life and the institution of marriage.
"We need to be more generous about contributing money to the pro-life and pro-marriage cause. ... The side that's prepared to give more is the side that wins."
Richard Land, president of the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission
"I think [Republicans] have to go back to their core principles. And I think they have to try to make a better argument. I had someone ask me the other day, 'What's going to happen if Obama wins?' And I said, 'The sun will come up in the morning, and it will go down at night.'
"Let's remember that if Jimmy Carter hadn't won over Gerald Ford, we would never have had Ronald Reagan. If Bill Clinton hadn't won, we would never have had the Contract with America and the Republican ascendancy in Congress, which led to the balanced budget that Bill Clinton takes credit for. You never know what the consequences are going to be."
Larry Schweikart, professor of History, University of Dayton, Ohio
"Conservative Christians must focus on … wealth redistribution. This is fundamentally unscriptural and unbiblical. We are commanded to give on a personal, voluntary basis, not to allow Caesar to take more than what is his. This is where the 'values voters' and the 'fiscal conservatives' can work to rebuild the Reagan coalition. Wealth confiscation is fundamentally sinful, whatever the reason for doing so. But it will require some of the conservative Christians to subordinate [the issue of] abortion … to issues that can bring us together, and which can provide a power base so that, once again, a government could take action on abortion. George Bush [signing] the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act was the final step of a program Ronald Reagan started in 1980-but it took 20 years to achieve, and it was not Reagan's first political priority.
"The first mistake [conservatives made] is a mundane, 'inside baseball' error. Namely, we were told for eight years of Karl Rove that 'If Republicans turn out, they can't lose.' … Well, that's not true. We need to realize that Republicans-hence, conservatives as a subgroup-are a minority, or close to it, in states they once dominated: Nevada, Virginia, Ohio, Missouri, and Florida. So the first thing you have to do is figure out who 'your people' are-who can you absolutely rely on to vote with you in an election.
"Second-and John McCain is a classic example of this-a conservative can never out-give a liberal. Whatever you promise, they'll promise double and not feel guilty about providing it. Conservatives need to return to the conservative message of small government, low taxes, local control, sanctity of life, and free markets. The minute John McCain came out in favor of the bailout bill, he was political toast. This is the kind of thing that plays into the 'feels your pain' answers to pollsters. Americans did not want big banks bailed out, and it becomes impossible to talk about the virtues of the free market if you don't ever allow the big shots to feel the pain of the free market when they mess up."
U.S. Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla.
"What we've had is eight years of Republicans not doing what they said they would do and consequently discouraging the heck out of everybody. It's political expediency abandoning conservative values. The party has to have a change in the people who are representing it. If it doesn't, it will die and another party will come along."
Robert Spencer, director of JihadWatch
"Conservative Christians should emphasize politically their commitment to and defense of constitutional principles, particularly as challenges to the freedom of speech and the principle of the equality of rights of all people before the law continue to increase. Muslim brotherhood-linked groups in America are certain to step up their campaign to have any examination of how Islamic jihadists use Islamic texts and teachings to justify violence and supremacism classified as 'hate speech' and criminalized. They are also certain to continue their stealth jihad campaign to win special accommodations and privileges for Muslims from American businesses, schools, and institutions, as part of their larger effort to-in the words of a brotherhood document revealed last year-eliminate and destroy Western civilization, 'so that Allah's religion is made victorious over other religions.' Christian conservatives, as among the few who generally recognize the nature and magnitude of this Islamic supremacist threat, need to be prepared to stand at the vanguard of resistance to these jihadist efforts.
"The election of Obama will bring renewed challenges to the freedom of speech, which the Organization of the Islamic Conference is already challenging at the U.N. Christian conservatives and all free citizens will need to raise awareness among Americans of what's at stake, and try to head off any attempt by the new president to build bridges with the Islamic world by enacting 'hate speech' codes that compromise this constitutional right."
Former U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum, R-Pa.
"I happen to believe that truth doesn't change because the American public decides to elect a different group of people with a different philosophy. The idea of principled conservatism and Christian conservatism is a standard that has stood the test of time and will stand the test of time. We should not walk away from policies that we know are beneficial to mankind and to America as a society because we have either poorly implemented our own philosophy or poorly communicated those philosophies.
"I don't think the things that have occurred happened in a vacuum. They occurred because we did not implement our governing philosophy and did not communicate our philosophy.
"If we did articulate those principles in a way that was persuasive, then we will be successful again, because America will try something that doesn't work and then come back to something that does.
"I think we do need to recognize that we lost our way on some things, in particular at home and in the economy, in the way we got wrapped up in the idea that government can solve problems instead of looking for ways to facilitate the private sector to do so.
"We have to look back at how we govern from the standpoint of domestic policy. We have failed on the domestic policy, particularly in not implementing our vision. From a broader perspective we have failed on the standpoint of communication.
"On social policy, to me, the policies aren't going to change. We have implemented very little. We are treading water in the culture right now, in a culture that is getting much more polluted and noxious to swim in."
Wendy Wright, president of Concerned Women for America
"Barack Obama was like a blank screen and people projected their own beliefs onto him, so I think his challenge now is how he is going to govern. Of those who voted for him, liberals saw themselves in him, moderates heard themselves in him, and some conservatives hoped that he'd believe like them. … We're going to have to fight for every pro-life protection that we have gained in the last 35 years. … We hope that he will honor the decisions of the majority of Americans when it comes to protecting marriage, especially when it comes to helping this next generation of children who deserve a mother and a father.
"We're going to need grassroots activists to be more involved than they ever have before when it comes to the issues Christians care about, especially judges. Even now, before the new president and new Congress are sworn in, people could be reaching out to their representatives, especially if they are new representatives … and congratulating them in their victories but also making very clear that we hope that they will honor the desires of the majority of Americans who overwhelmingly support regulations on abortion, protection for marriage, and judges who rule according to the Constitution and not their whims.
"The left has been unusually successful in demonizing our rising stars. We saw this most blatantly when it came to judges, when President Bush appointed really solid candidates for the federal bench and the left threw all kinds of spurious and untruthful accusations against them. We need to learn how to defend and stand up for good men and women who are in public office or would be in public office.
"The left has had a strategy of picking off rising conservative stars and not just fighting their current position or nomination but destroying the candidates' reputations, to try to keep them from future positions. And we've got to learn how to protect good people better."
Mark DeMoss, public relations executive
"I'm still amazed and somewhat disappointed at the number of evangelical voters, including many in leadership positions, who are really quite uninformed about candidates and the process. I think that's a terrible mistake to approach something this important uninformed. People will say they're for this candidate or they like this candidate, and if you ask them why, many times the best answer they can give is that they're Christian or they love the Lord or they share my values. And you ask them which values, and they don't know. We ought to be informed. And particularly in a day and age when it is so easy to get informed.
"To a large degree, [evangelicals] have not realized the importance of money in elections. … If we're serious about electing Candidate X or Candidate Y, we've got to not only speak out for these candidates and talk them up, we have to give them money. A pastor stands up and promotes a missions campaign or a new building campaign, and he asks people to give money and support it because it takes money. We stand up and say that we need to elect a candidate who will represent our values, but we don't give them money. … If Christians wanted Mike Huckabee, for example, as the Republican nominee, they should have given him money. And I think we just ignore this too often. We think our job is to talk and promote and invite candidates to our churches, but somehow we're exempt from putting money down.
"No candidate is perfect and no candidate is all bad, in my opinion. To be more specific, I would say, for religious conservatives, John McCain is not our savior and Barack Obama is not the antichrist. Too often we look at things completely black and white, and suggest that the candidate we're supporting can do no wrong, and the other candidate can do nothing right or say anything right. And that's just not true anywhere in life. I think we lose credibility when we suggest we're perfect and you're evil. I think we lose a platform for influence. I think that's a terrible mistake.
"Governing the United States of America encompasses so much more than two or three so-called social issues.
"I would emphasize a positive vision for America rather than a divisive attack on Barack Obama. I think if Obama wins it will be in large part because he ran arguably the most positive, uplifting, energetic campaign in modern history. I think evangelicals of all people ought to be able to speak the truth in love, and to be respectful and kind and courteous, and it's possible to be all those things without compromising your beliefs.
"I would really like to see evangelicals begin to or continue encouraging people of faith to look for and support candidates who share their values, whether or not they share your theology or faith. And I think we made some progress on that front this year, but I don't think we made enough. I think we still have too many evangelicals choosing candidates on the basis of their faith rather than on the basis of their values and their competence and qualifications and experience to serve.
"Evangelical Christians ought to be the thought leaders, not the flame-throwers. We ought to make compelling arguments and do it respectfully. We ought to be attractive to other people who look at us, and I don't see enough of that."
Tony Evans, senior pastor, Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship, Dallas, Texas
"Relevancy. You have to show where your belief system is relevant to the perspectives, needs, hopes, dreams of the people. Without compromising standards, you have to be relevant. Conservatives have often been too disconnected from where people really are and that showed up in the economic crisis. The masses did not feel that the conservative approach was relevant to where the average person is. It didn't relate to their kitchen table talk.
"Conservatives can often be ethereal and irrelevant. We must show how our biblical worldview is also a relevant worldview, and that it speaks to what people are dealing with here and now. That means making sure that we're giving them answers for their particular situations, not solutions so broad that they are simply 'making America a better place.' Barack Obama made people on the lower levels feel like they mattered and that their pain was worth making a big deal about. Even if his [policy ideas] weren't the best strategy, they appealed to people on a personal level.
"When Ronald Reagan asked, 'Are you better off today than you were four years ago?' it was a global question, but it required an individual answer. For most people the answer was no, therefore Reagan swept into office.
"When he first ran for president, George W. Bush's faith-based initiative was a big deal. It made the issue [of compassion] practical. Bush said, 'Let's respond to these faith-based organizations who are doing good works across the nation.' It localized the issue in terms of people helping people in need.
"Moral issues need to be heralded so that they are viewed as important. We need to lift those issues up so that they are not seen as peripheral issues, but as central to the well-being of the nation. That's a big order, and it can't be done independently of other issues, such as economic need."
Karl Zinsmeister, White House domestic policy adviser
"True Story: On my way in to after the election, I was cycling down Pennsylvania Avenue at dawn. Just as I passed the National Gallery of Art I heard a thud to my left. I looked over, and was astonished to see a big, strong red-tailed hawk, which had pounced on a rat in the bushes. Quite apart from the beauty and thrill of seeing a wild predator hunting right in the heart of Washington, I found it a very comforting symbol of how the natural order goes on-unruffled, adaptable, persistent, and permanent. Men come and go, but always there are longer-term forces that drive forward, that cannot be suppressed, that accomplish unexpected things with a motive force beyond human orchestration."
U.S. Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan.
"We've got to get back to being more of who we are rather than less. By that, I think of being both pro-life and whole-life. We really have to emphasize that all life is sacred at all stages. We have to emphasize the whole-life side-issues of poverty, prison reform, human rights, immigration-to attract people in a compassionate way. We have to go back to dealing with tough problems to show the country that we believe life is sacred and then proving that by those actions.
"We have to take our faith fully into the public square and when we're debating, it's got to be in truth and love. If that's not evident, our words either come across as tinny or empty.
"I think it will be a good soul-searching time period. I think there should be some real experimentation at the state level on our core philosophical issues. We need to be a loyal opposition.
"It really is a historic election and I'm pleased from that standpoint that the racial barrier has been broken through. I hope our policy differences don't take away from the history-making aspect of this election."
Zuhdi Jasser, founder of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy
"The conservative movement needs to recalibrate itself as to what are the ideas that we stand for and look at what has happened to our branding, because somewhere we seem to have lost the ideas of freedom and liberty. Part of what made Reagan effective was that he called a spade a spade; he called the Soviets an evil empire and had a clear policy with how we dealt with the Cold War and the ideology of communism and socialism. Now, we too often let go of the righteousness of the ideas of freedom and liberty in exchange for short-term compromise. As a result, we fall into the same dilemmas of moral equivalency as the left. Voters turn off when they realize the inconsistency there."

NEW YORK (AP) — Broadway is taking the threat of the mammoth storm seriously, with theater owners canceling all Sunday evening and Monday shows long before a drop of rain fell in Times Square.
Sundays are big days for Broadway. Many shows have both a matinee and evening performance. But forecasts called for rain late Sunday or early Monday and subway service is to be halted, so all Sunday evening performances were scrubbed, including "The Book of Mormon," Mama Mia!" ''Mary Poppins," ''The Lion King" and "Newsies."
Off-Broadway shows including "Stomp," ''Bad Jews" and "Golden Child" were also canceled.
Other shows had no evening show scheduled, including "Cyrano de Bergerac," ''Chaplin," ''Enemy of the People," ''Once," ''Jersey Boys" and "Nice Work If You Can Get It."

This report details the post-9/11 programs and agreements implemented by U.S. and European governments to identify terrorists and serious transnational criminals through the collection and processing of increasing quantities of traveler data.
The global economic downturn and rising debt levels in all European countries have put immigration at the forefront of many debates surrounding public spending. This report presents a diversity of findings with regard to European governments' responses to immigrant integration organization, financing, and programs.
This policy brief examines the legalization debate on both sides of the Atlantic and discusses policy parameters that characterize legalization programs, such as qualifications, requirements, benefits, and program design and implementation.
The enlargement of the European Union has fundamentally changed migration patterns to the United Kingdom. Since May 2004 an estimated 1.5 million workers have moved to the UK from new EU member states. This report looks at the challenges ahead as migration patterns shift across the UK.
Despite benefits of sharing commercial, government, or personal information for law enforcement and intelligence purposes, U.S. and EU officials have toiled to find a satisfactory legal framework to do so. This report describes and analyzes possible legal, privacy, and data-protection frameworks for information-sharing agreements relating to human mobility.
"Good integration" happens every day in different areas around the country, either as a unified response to a tragic event, in the private sphere, or in the successful performance of some ethnic minorities in education and employment.Yet, in some respects, communities are moving apart, pulled or sometimes pushed, by their own choices.

Fall Convocation ~ Empowerment
Oct 19, 2012
Pictured, left to right: Atty. Marion Munley, Board Chair; Dr. Bernadette Gray-Little '66, Chancellor of the University of Kansas and keynote speaker, and Sister Anne Munley, IHM, President, surrounded by Marywood's brilliant fall landscape.
Greetings…I want to express my deepest gratitude to our honored guest, Dr. Bernadette Gray-Little, who is an inspiration to us all. We thank her for sharing her wisdom and insights on empowerment and responsibility. Let's show her our appreciation with another round of applause.
Bernadette's personal and professional experiences affirm the values we hold as a university community. Our core value of empowerment is essential to the fabric of our culture as a Catholic institution of higher education—to transform the opportunities we've been given into transformative opportunities for others. For Marywood, that means enabling access to education that empowers all to achieve their full potential and to live as conscientious citizens in an interdependent world.
As I was reflecting on the theme of empowerment earlier this week, the Parable of the Talents came to mind. This is the New Testament passage in which Jesus tells the story of three servants, one entrusted with five talents, the second with two, and a third with one. In this instance, the term "talent" refers to money—but we can apply this lesson to the actual talents, gifts, and advantages with which we are blessed in life.
As the story unfolds we learn that "The servant who had received the five talents went at once and put his money to work and gained five more…So also, the one with the two talents gained two more…But the servant who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master's money."
When the master learned what his servants had done, he praised the first two for doubling the talents they'd been given, but scorned the third for simply burying her talent and doing nothing with it. There is a clear moral to this story—Take a risk; uncover the light within yourself and others; and let it shine! Each of us is expected to do as much as we can with whatever is entrusted to us.
We are all stewards of precious blessings, which go far beyond material wealth. Whatever our talent—a mind for numbers, a spirit of creativity, a heart for justice—we all have choices to make: we can bury our talents out of fear, or we can make them grow for the greater good of all.
Living an empowered life demands moving beyond fear, self-focus, or apathy to an unwavering quest to develop God-given gifts and potential wherever they are found.
Think about our heritage; in 1915, at a time when higher educational opportunities for women were meager at best, when women had not yet attained the right to vote—Marywood stood as a bright light of hope and opportunity for the daughters of coal miners. The IHM Sisters were serious from the start about establishing an institution of higher learning that would transform the dreams of eager-minded young women into deeds that would change the world.
Decades before, in 1845, two visionaries—Louis Gillet, CssR and Theresa Maxis—turned their shared dream into an extraordinary deed. They saw the need to educate young immigrants and established the IHM Congregation in frontier Michigan. The congregation they founded grew beyond their wildest expectations.
That pioneering spirit and willingness to risk all to develop God –given gifts and potential also can be traced to 18th-century Italy and St. Alphonsus Liguori—founder of the Redemptorists and a spiritual patron of this university. An immensely gifted person himself, Alphonsus lived and worked among the peasants of Scala, Italy, and saw the undeniable spark of God's Spirit in hearts eager to know the Good News. He met the poor right where they were, speaking plainly and directly, that they might understand the powerful, abundant love of their Creator and Redeemer. He wanted them to know that they were not abandoned, and that they, too, held an esteemed place at God's table.
Certainly, we live in different times and circumstances than those missionary priests, those pioneering sisters, or even those coal miners' daughters who were educated during Marywood's early days. Yet, that spirit of empowerment—letting the light shine—is woven throughout the history of our University, and it comes forward to connect to our experiences today. Here we encourage students—woman and men of all backgrounds—to discover and cultivate their talents and abilities to enhance the quality of their own lives and the lives of so many others. Every single day on this campus, I see and hear marvelous stories of empowerment brought forth from transformative engagement of Marywood faculty, staff and students. I draw inspiration from these stories and from other powerful examples of willingness to take a risk for the empowerment of others.
Last week the world drew together in shock and sorrow at the tragic shooting of Malala Yousafzai, a fourteen-year-old Pakistani girl who has become a national heroine for defending her right and the rights of other girls to education. Malala was sitting in a school van with friends waiting to go home when an assailant came up to the van, asked which student was Malala, and shot her. Now she is in critical condition in a hospital in the provincial capital. Malala was only eleven when she first stood up to the Taliban over their ban on education for girls in her home district. During a television appearance, with Taliban sympathizers in the audience, Malala, with courage far beyond her years, stated: "I don't mind if I have to sit on the floor at school. All I want is education. And I am afraid of no one." Malala is an icon of empowerment; she has a passionate desire to develop her own gifts and fierce commitment to bringing others forward with her.
Poignant examples of empowerment are not always so dramatic. Sometimes transformative change takes place when those who have had access to education pass on their skills and learning by mentoring others. I saw this in Africa last summer during a site visit for the Sisters Leadership Development Initiative (SLDI), a collaborative program that provides training in technology, leadership and finance to Sisters serving in six Sub-Saharan countries. SLDI is funded by the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation and is housed here at Marywood. Overall, in the second three-year phase of this grant, the 250 participants have passed on what they have learned to more than 2000 co-workers and community members. Such light will not be extinguished. Let it shine; let it shine; let it shine!
Many times the light of empowerment that I see is right here on our campus. A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending our annual Scholarship Dinner. This is a special event, because it brings together benefactors who believe in our mission and student scholars who benefit from their generosity.
The student speaker at this year's dinner was a Maxis-Gillet scholar, Colleen Traub '14. The Maxis-Gillet Scholarships are service-based awards, which are so named because the students who receive them are committed, just as our IHM founders were, to the empowering spirit of servant-leadership.
Colleen, a nursing student from New Hartford, Connecticut, shared with us the transformative experience of serving in Tanzania and meeting a six-year old girl from Morogoro named Katherine. She spoke of the day that she brought Katherine a special gift—a bottle of bubbles. She said:
I had loved playing with bubbles as a little girl, but I wasn't quite sure how the kids in Africa would take it. Would they understand what the bubbles were? Would they think I was crazy when I blew into a plastic wand and streams of round shimmering globes came out?…I unscrewed the cap, took out the wand, and, as Katherine quizzically watched me, I blew into the little circle of clear liquid at the top of the wand. As the stream of bubbles emerged from the circle, Katherine's eyes widened in amazement, and she laughed with the joy that only a child can have. I pointed to the magic I had made and said, "Bubbles." Katherine laughed and repeated the English word after me, "Bubbles." I could almost see the light bulb going off in Katherine's head, the connection being made between my language and hers. It really was magic.
After that magical moment, Katherine couldn't get enough of the bubbles. And while playing with those magical bubbles, I was able to teach Katherine many English words.
(During this two-week service trip)...I taught high school students English grammar, gave tender love and care to orphans there, and helped the people of the community build better lives. I was able to give so much and learn so much from the people in return. But it was Katherine who taught me the most—about friendship, connectedness, and the joy of life.
As I sat on that porch stoop with Katherine until every drop of bubble mix was gone, and as we watched the bubbles drift up into the sky, I knew my life would never be the same. I knew I was changed, because of her, because of this little bit of magic, and because of all of these experiences—in Scranton, in Africa, and right here on the Marywood campus. I would never be the same.
Never the same…even though they did not share a common language, Colleen and Katherine understood the meaning of empowerment. That simple act of blowing bubbles and watching them float away broke down barriers making room for the magic of empowerment to occur.
What Malala, Colleen, Katherine, the African Sisters, and all of us have in common is awareness that the blessing of education is that we can never be the same. The light that education shines lifts up people and breaks down barriers. Whether barriers are financial, legislative, social, religious, psychological, or physical—or even those presented by language, ethnic or cultural differences—the task of overcoming them involves recognizing and realizing potential in ourselves and others. In the process, we are all empowered, transformed, or, as Colleen put it—never the same.
The gift of true empowerment is that all things change.
In the words of Helen Schucman: …The rhythm of the world shifts into concert. What was harsh before and seemed to speak of death now sings of life, and joins the chorus to eternity.
And so, with the poet John O'Donohue, I say particularly to our students:
Awaken your spirit to adventure.
Hold nothing back; learn to find ease in risk.
Soon you will be at home in a new rhythm,
For your soul senses the world that awaits you.

Born on Nov. 10, 1971 in Birmingham, AL, Goggins was raised in Lithia Springs, GA, by his father, Walton, Sr., and his mother, Janet. Goggins was exposed to show business at an early age through his family - an aunt and uncle were both theater actors, while another aunt was a publicist for B.B. King and Phyllis Diller. In 1980, he entered and won a hog-calling competition when he was eight years old - the youngest competitor in the contest. A few years later, he and his mother were statewide champion cloggers - a form of mountain dancing - which led to opening for B.B. King at Atlanta's Fulton County Prison.

Topics such as players' off-season plans, roster moves, the Kauffman Stadium renovation progress and the upcoming baseball season are fair game, and fans who aren't able to participate in the live chat session will be able to catch up here. Transcripts from past chats, the chat sessions' guest schedule and additional information on each guest will be posted.
If you want to participate in Tuesday's chat with Dayton or any of the upcoming chats, you have to register online at royals.com. In addition to gaining access to the chat sessions, you'll also receive the latest Royals news alerts, promotions and ticket deals as a registered user.

To the editor:
Thank you for your June 17 article headlined, �House bill could alter mental aid regulation� with a subhead of �In N.C., autism treatment now requires 2 staffers.� I have worked for years to provide access to appropriate health resources for the many military families with autistic children in North Carolina, and I appreciate your effort to bring attention to this important topic.
As you reported, the N.C. House has passed a bill that would counteract current state law, which stipulates that applied behavior analysts can only practice under the direct supervision of a psychologist. This unnecessary regulation drastically decreases the number of autistic children who are able to access Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) therapy.
I join with the parents across the state � including many members of the armed services � who hope to see this bill approved by the N.C. Senate in the coming weeks.
With many military families stationed in the Third District and throughout North Carolina, ensuring that they are able to access this care is a high priority of mine as I continue my work with the Armed Services Committee in the House of Representatives.
Last year, I joined with Congressman John Larson, D-Conn., in successfully creating a one-year pilot program that would allow developmental disability treatment, including ABA therapy, to be covered under the military health program Tricare.
This year, I again joined with Congressman Larson and several other colleagues to introduce an amendment � which has been included in the House version of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 � that would permanently require Tricare to cover ABA treatment.
Again, thank you for highlighting the need for our military families to have complete access to the health resources that they require. Through the reforms taking place on the federal and state level, I believe we will soon be able to provide the high standard of care that our military personnel and their families deserve.
After the incredible sacrifices that they have made for us, I am committed to ensuring that their needs are met.

SMYRNA, Ga. -- Imagine waiting more than three years for the priceless memories of your wedding album and never getting it.
For Kristen and Chris Seals of Smyrna, that's just what happened. They got excuse after excuse but still no album.
Two weeks ago, the 11Alive Help Desk met with the Seals and got a firm commitment from the wedding photographer that he would finally deliver everything on Wednesday of this week.
The Seals waited anxiously at home for their wedding album and digital photographs, but they never appeared.
After years of extraordinary patience, they figured they'd finally get what they paid $6,000 to have.
"We both raced home from work. We've been counting down the days and it's been a long wait. We were pretty excited. It was finally going to be over," Kristen Seals said.
But despite firm promises made to the 11Alive Help Desk, the wedding photographer, John Campbell, never showed up.
"All we wanted was our pictures. That's all we wanted. That's really disappointing," Kristen Seals said. "I'm shocked. I thought he would appear. I thought this would do the trick but I guess not," We are devastated. We are devastated."
Instead of showing up, Campbell called the Seals less than an hour before he was due to arrive and left a voice mail saying his shipment containing the album did not arrive.
"We have been told time and time again for the past three-plus years that it is in the mail, that it's coming and we'll get it to you," Kristen Seals said.
The Seals called Campbell back and wanted something that would keep their wedding memories alive.
"At the very least, give us a good faith showing and bring us our digital negatives," Kristen Seals asked.
Thursday afternoon, a CD with more than 700 wedding images showed up in the Seals' mailbox, but there was still no wedding album.
The 11Alive Help Desk left multiple voicemails for Campbell, but the calls have not been returned.
