More Information
Prosecutors to seek death in trial of suspect in 2 killings
Published: Monday, November 19, 2012 at 2:16 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, November 19, 2012 at 2:16 p.m.
DAYTONA BEACH -- Prosecutors will seek the death penalty in the trial of a convicted Port Orange child rapist who is awaiting trial in the killings of two women.
Assistant State Attorney Ed Davis filed a notice of intent to seek the death penalty against James Maxwell, 44.
Maxwell was indicted earlier this year on charges of first-degree murder in the slayings of Chasity Starr and Pamela Sue Will.
Maxwell, on Nov. 9, was sentenced to three life terms by Circuit Judge R. Michael Hutcheson for kidnapping and raping a 9-year-old neighbor. He was sentenced to an additional 15 years for burglary.
Even though he has pleaded not guilty in the killings, search warrants show Maxwell admitted to Port Orange detectives that he killed Starr by strangling her in January 2011. Starr's body was found in Maxwell's backyard in June. Her skeletal remains were wrapped in a red, white and blue quilt-like bed spread, the search warrants state.
Pamela Will, meanwhile, was found in a muddy ditch next to International Trade Associates in Ormond Beach, where Maxwell once worked. Will had been missing since September 2010.
Both women were prostitutes.
Defense attorney Peyton Quarles, said he is not surprised the State Attorney's Office is asking for the death penalty for his client.
Quarles said he expected that outcome after a discussion with the State Attorney's Office concerning the murder cases "in conjunction with the sexual battery case," fell apart. Quarles declined to discuss the specifics of the conversation.
In 1988, Maxwell was also convicted of attempted murder for repeatedly stabbing a Daytona Beach prostitute in the chest. He served time in prison for that offense.
Prosecutors have said Maxwell's trial on the murder charges will be next year.

The U.S. Luge Association is teaming up with the Youth Winter Sports Alliance to host the After School Luge Program once again.
This year, however, the program will lower its minimum age requirement in order to better match similar programs in Europe. After only being available to students ages 10 to 13 in years past, eight- and nine-year-olds will also be able to participate this year.
The program, which runs on three consecutive Fridays beginning on Oct. 25, is open to all students who fall within the age limits. And, due to their proximity to the Utah Olympic Park, Ecker Hill Middle School students have the option of transportation from the school to the track.
Program director Jon Owen, a 1988 Olympian and current Western Region director for USA Luge, said the luge program provides young sliders a chance to see how much they improve over the three-week period.
"It's a multi-day program instead of just a one-day program," he said. "They get to see themselves improve as they move farther up the hill. They can see how they're learning and that gets kids more excited than a one-time thing."
Athletes will start at curve 12 of the UOP track, practicing on the last four curves before working their way up to the Tourist Start.
There are 15 spots available in the program, which Owen said will allow more one-on-one coaching and more ice time.
"We've had years where we've had as few as five or six kids," Owen said.
For a program that has produced many world-class lugers over the years, getting as many runs as possible in the two-hour span is crucial.
"A good share of my team has come in through this after-school option," he said. "It's a program that does lead somewhere. It's a fun, experiential program, but it also leads directly to ongoing training."
Getting kids excited about the sport at a young age is a way Owen hopes the United States can begin to close the gap with some European countries.
"This reminds me so much of some of the European models I've seen," he said. "They have it as an elementary school physical education option in several countries. This [after-school] model is our next-best option."
For more information about the After School Luge Program, contact Owen by calling (435) 647-3800 or email firstname.lastname@example.com to get a registration packet. The registration deadline is Oct. 11.
Program details:
Dates: Oct. 25, Nov. 1 and Nov. 8
Time: 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.
Cost: $100, which includes all equipment, coaching, track fees and membership to USA Luge

When it comes to health care, one size does not fit all.
Adolescents are thought to differ from adults living with depression because they more often experience symptoms of irritability, anger and self-criticism rather than feelings of sadness and a loss of energy commonly seen in adults.
NAMI has published What Families Need to Know about Adolescent Depression, a new edition of a guide for families seeking accurate diagnosis and wanting to know effective treatment options for teenagers experiencing depression.
The 35-page Family Guide summarizes symptoms of depression and treatment options, along with providing information about suicide prevention, healthcare and therapy.
The most common forms of therapy for adolescent depression are talk therapy, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), medication or a combination of both.
It is important that parents and children engage in dialogue to create an open and honest environment where mental health issues are discussed and treated just like any other health risk. Communication is imperative. The family guide can help the discussion.
"Untreated, depression can lead to devastating consequences for adolescents, including ongoing problems in school, at home and with friends, the loss of critical developmental years and increased risk for substance abuse, involvement with the juvenile justice system and suicide."
--What Families Need to Know about Adolescent Depression
Since 2009, physicians have been encouraged to perform general depression screenings for children aged 12 to 18. Screenings and discussions with adolescents are vital in preventing them from reaching decisions where they resort to self-harm or suicide to achieve relief from distress that can be effectively treated.
A PDF copy of the booklet can be downloaded from the NAMI website. Single and multiple copies can also be ordered through the NAMI store.
NAMI also has a Child & Adolescent Action Center that provides additional information and updates related to young people and mental illness.

Mobile home destroyed after fire in Denton
Published: Friday, March 29, 2013 at 9:32 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 29, 2013 at 9:32 a.m.
A single-wide mobile home was destroyed in the Denton community after it caught fire late Thursday evening.
Firefighters with the Denton Volunteer Fire Department were dispatched to the mobile home fire at 7:40 p.m. They arrived to find flames coming from the rear of the mobile home and smoke coming from the rest of it, said Scott Morris, assistant chief of the DVFD.
The DVFD has identified the fire victim as Dale Bean.
Firefighters had the fire under control within 5 to 7 minutes, and the home was a total loss, the assistant chief said. Morris said the home was not occupied at the time of the fire, but Bean lived there without any electricity. He said the Greater High Point-Chapter of the American Red Cross is assisting the Bean who is in his 30s.
The fire originated in the back of the house, Morris said. No injuries were reported.
Morris deferred questions regarding the cause of the fire to the Davidson County Fire Marshal's Office. Davidson County Fire Marshal Brad Needham said the cause of the fire remained under investigation Friday. He said he couldn't comment on whether foul play was suspected.
Firefighters with the South Davidson and Silver Valley volunteer fire departments assisted the DVFD.

Mac OS X and A865 - Some Tips
Hi. I just removed myself from the Ipod. I bought the Sony A865 16GB and I am very happy with it. I am using SnowLeopard 10.6.8. Sony's software is now drag and drop. I actually wanted to see if I could install it, but I was unable to(thank god). The drive will show up on your desktop, then click it and open the various files. Open your iTunes and drag your individual song files in and that's it!
NOTE: The player will mount on your desktop and probably open iPhoto as well.(really annoying!) Go into Mac Preferences---->CD/DVD and under "Insert a Picture CD, click 'Ignore'. This will prevent iPhoto from opening again.
NOTE 2: When you unmount the Sony, it will quickly mount again. When you are finished, unmount and quickly disconnect the USB from the computer when you see the Sony disappear from the desktop(about 1 second). You may see a warning message or you may not, depending on your timing, but don't worry about it. This is the only way to 'unmount' the player.
NOTE 3: If you want to sync iTunes, install the third party software 'iTunemywalkman'. I think it works on all the new Sony mp3 players as well as phones. It works well for me. Good luck!
|[Remove Advertisement]
Good tips for OSX, some additional ones I have found (again with SL X.6.8 and an A865W) which may help for those using this player with OSX:
NOTE1: If you want to avoid iTunes (like me), Clementine will talk to the A865 on OSX, provided you use the latest development versions of 1.0.1 or later (the stable 1.0.1 will crash when you plug the player in). You also currently need to make sure to use the USB Storage device when copying music across (the MTP one shows a wrong size and doesn't work currently).
NOTE2: The A865 has successfully worked with all the MP3 (CBR/VBR) and AAC (unprotected) files I have transferred so far
NOTE3: It doesn't seem to read ID3 V1.1 tags at all. Files without V2 tags always seem to show only a basic name.
NOTE4: It won't read IV3 V2.4 tags (I suspect because it has only been tested with Windows, and Windows Media Player won't either!) If you have such files, then kid3 can convert the tagging information to 2.3.0 which is detected properly.
NOTE5: It will display artwork if embedded in ID3 tags of the file itself, but seems to be picky if you have multiple images - with a single image it works, but with multiple it displays none. For those using iTunes, then your images may or may not be embedded in the files (depends on which version of iTunes encoded the file, and how you got the artwork). Again, kid3 can update the files with artwork.
Other than that, no complaints, and I really like the audio output from this PMP

Children tidy their classroom. School furniture was often made by internees from scrap pieces of wood and crates. Photo courtesy of Topaz Museum.
This year marks the 70th anniversary of Topaz, and the ground breaking for a museum, an educational effort that comes after a decade of endeavor by residents, Japanese-American internees and their descendants.
Locals led by former school teacher Jane Beckwith never want Topaz and the violation of civil rights the camp represents to be forgotten or repeated. More than 110,000 Americans were imprisoned simply for being of Japanese descent—Nisei in Japanese. The U.S. government didn't formally apologize until 1988 when Congress acknowledged that "race prejudice, war hysteria and a failure of political leadership" following the attack on Pearl Harbor led to the imprisonment of innocent Japanese-Americans.
Despite the museum board's hard work to memorialize the injustice of Topaz, many of the former internees doubt the lesson has been learned. "It's going to happen over and over again. It's the nature of man to find someone weaker and push them down. Look at Guantanamo," Saito says.

Rated 4.4 out of 5 by 5 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by tlesnik My Favorite! Love the flavor and it is a perfect treat. Daily luxuries and delight. April 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by cutiegodzilla Tastes great! My friend bought this and she's made it for me a few times, I actually really like it. I'm very picky with tea or anything of the sort, especially chai because I don't like cinnamon. My friend buys cinnamon to put in it but with mine keeps it out, she tried it once without it and still really liked it. I think she said it was basically the same. I add a little bit of milk or creamer in it because I like things that have a cream taste. I would definitely recommend this to people, I just wish it contained more so I could drink more of it! February 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by KRICKET I totally enjoy David Rio's Chai..Yummy! I enjoy David Rio's Chai as a treat or just to warm up in the winter. I have also made iced Chai, yummmo : ) May 18, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Merelia My Favorite Chai Mix I discovered this powdered chai mix while in Canada. It is the best powder mix I have ever tried. I am not fond of liquid typed because the make the frink too watery. David Rion has several flavors but I like the Tiger Spice the best. I mixes in quick and I have used it in blended drinks and hot. On a cold winter day it is perfect. December 9, 2011
Rated 2 out of 5 by Susansweatergirl A lot of other ingredients I was disappointed that there were so many other ingredients in this mixture besides the basic spices and tea. January 25, 2013

Post subject: A Gentle Reminder: Please Read
First of all, the publishers and staff of AAR are delighted that the message boards are active once again, so thank you to everyone who is keeping the discussion lively.
As we announced when we took over the site, AARs new publishers are taking a hands-off approach to message board moderation and moving threads from the "wrong" board is certainly something we don't want to do.
With that said, we would like to clarify that the Let's Talk Romance Novels board is for
posts about books
and the Potpourri is for almost every
other romance-related issue
. Additionally, Writers News is for writer promos, General Chat for topics of general interest (non-romance TV and movies, for example), and Wild Wild West for those who want to talk politics or anything else potentially controversial.
Additionally, we'd appreciate it if posters could keep the threads about individual books on the Lets Talk Romance Novels board to just one thread -- in other words, please don't start a new thread if you see one already on the board.
And one thing more: Please try to keep within the general confines of a thread topic. If a thread veers off in another direction, it's usually a good idea to start a new one to help posters involved in the original discussion and those who'd like to participate in a new one.
Once again, thanks to everyone for posting. We're glad you're here!

Hi Sandy,
I certainly agree that starting a new thread about a particular book when there already is a thread on the book is not a good idea. I have a question: is there some way (other than scrolling back through many pages) to find if a thread on a book is already on the forum? In other words, is there some type of keyword index? Like a lot of people, I have a ton of books in the TBR stack(s), and sometimes I'll pick one to read that was published a LONG time ago. Needless to say, scrolling back 10, 15, or 20 pages on the forum would be very time-consuming, and if I want to see what other people think of a particular book, that seems to be the only way to do it. Unless, of course, there IS a keyword index! (I'm a former librarian, and I used to catalog books, so I'm big on indices!) :)
Thanks in advance!

I was wondering this too, as I post about books that were published in the past. I do a search, but I don't usually go back more than a few pages so I'm sure I'm missing some old threads.
Justin managed to look superior and bored and disbelieving all at once. No mean feat for a man who'd just fallen from a tree.

At the top of the message board page is a "power" search button. Click on it and it opens where you can search titles of topics or individual posts. Very helpful. Don't bother scrolling since I discovered it...
When in doubt, read.

any of you engineer types know if a 1"-12 thread is sufficient to properly keep a rifle barrel in place?? Winchester uses 1"-16 threads. in not sure what formulas or calculations to use or how to do them if i had them. I think it would be fine. I also want to be able to account for the voids on some trunions that wont have threads.
looking for advice from guys who do this stuff for a living.
figure 65,000 psi chamber pressure and a .540 case head that will cover any likely magnum round down the road and giver a comfort zone on a normal round.
I see coarser threads on different rifles like the small ring Mauser etc, as well as smaller IDs on lever actions and other high power rifles. Id just like to get some thoughts on this before I sacrifice a trunion.
what is the name of the site that has all the home built guns and machine shop stuff???? Im drawing a blank. I know some of those guys deal in this stuff regularly.

P.A.L. is a proactive community policing effort that uses sports as a tool to promote gang resistance and awareness. Local youth are coached by area law enforcement in a competitive basketball season to build a bond that extends off the court. The Wilmington Police Department charges nothing for participation in the program and only requires kids to maintain their academics and positive attitudes at home, school and on the court.
The P.A.L. program is currently running two 10 to 12 year old seasons at the Brigade and Community Boys & Girls Clubs. There are a total of 80 youth participating at the two facilities and their all-stars will once again play against each other in the 3rd annual Wilmington Police Athletic League Crosstown Championship on April 11th.
New to P.A.L. this year is the 14 and under travel team program that is giving some of our returning youth the chance to travel around the state for multiple tournaments this spring. Finally, the Wilmington Police Department is looking to partner the Police Athletic League with DC Virgo Preparatory Academy to offer their students multiple positive athletic programs beginning in the Fall of 2013. For more information, contact WPD Officer Reece at 910.520.3852 or by e-mail at email@example.com.

Mr. Smith : Variety Mix - Substitute
Time at station:
On-air as needed since September of 2003 - at KEXP since July 2002.
Real job:
This is a real job...
I am also here at KEXP daily, working with businesses to who support the station through underwriting.
I pleaded with my mother to buy me my first 45′s at a K-mart in Lewiston Idaho: they were Helen Reddy's "Ain't No Way To Treat A Lady" and the Theme From Happy Days. The first LP I bought with my own allowance was KISS "Alive II" from some grocery store in Wenatchee. Later that year I was deeply embarrassed when my grandparents decided they'd listen to my new Queen LP - they played side-two first, leading off with the salacious "Get Down Make Love", finally remarking that SOME of the songs had nice melodies.
Somewhere along the line I found some other records I liked, and well... HERE I AM. At this particular moment (7/16/04, 3:20 PM), I wouldn't want to consider a life without the following 15 songs in the peripheral:
Gang Of 4: What We All Want
Radio National: Back Seat Queen

Over the past few months we have seen an increase in spammers on BFC. This has resulted in a number of them being caught on a daily basis thanks to those who report them. However, while we mods do appreciate the reports we have two simple things to ask of you.
1. Do not reply to an obvious spam post or thread. Simply report it by clicking the button at the top right (now at the bottom left) of the post. You have to do nothing else. Letting the spammer know you've reported him is counter-productive and there is the possibility that he'll get in a few more posts before we can ban him making clean up more difficult. You can tell if a thread has been reported already by the "red card" on the right side of the post.
2. If you do happen to respond to the spammer DO NOT QUOTE HIM!!! That's more cleanup we have to do.
So please help us help you by helping us.
The BFC Moderator Team.

About 92 percent of Israelis live in urban areas. Many modern towns and cities, blending the old and the new, are built on sites known since antiquity, among them Jerusalem, Safed, Be'er Sheva, Tiberias, and Akko. Others such as Rehovot, Hadera, Petah Tikva, and Rishon Lezion began as agricultural villages in the pre-state era and gradually evolved into major population centers. Development towns such as Karmiel and Kiryat Gat were built in the early years of the state to accommodate the rapid population growth generated by mass immigration, as well as to help distribute the population throughout the country and to promote a closely interlocked rural and urban economy by drawing industry and services to previously unpopulated areas.
Jerusalem, situated in the Judean Hills, is the capital of Israel, the seat of government and the historical, spiritual and national center of the Jewish people since King David made it the capital of his kingdom some 3,000 years ago. Sanctified by religion and tradition, by holy places and houses of worship, it is revered by Jews, Christians, and Muslims the world over.
Until 1860 Jerusalem was a walled city made up of four quarters - Jewish, Muslim, Armenian, and Christian. At that time, the Jews, who by then comprised the majority of its population, began to establish new neighborhoods outside the walls, forming the nucleus of modern Jerusalem. During three decades of British Mandate administration (1918-48), the city gradually changed from a neglected provincial town of the Ottoman Empire (1517-1917) into a flourishing metropolis, with many new residential neighborhoods, each reflecting the character of the particular group living there.
Following the Arab onslaught against the newly established State of Israel, the city was divided (1949) under Israeli and Jordanian rule, and for the next 19 years concrete walls and barbed wire sealed off one part from the other. As a result of the 1967 Six Day War, the city was reunified.
Today Israel's largest city, Jerusalem has a population of more than 760,000. At once ancient and modern, it is a city of diversity, with inhabitants representing a mixture of cultures and nationalities, of religiously observant and secular lifestyles. It is a city which preserves its past and builds for the future, with carefully restored historical sites, well-landscaped green areas, modern commercial zones, industrial parks and expanding suburbs attesting to its continuity and vitality.
Tel Aviv-Yafo, a modern city on the Mediterranean coast, is Israel's commercial and financial center as well as the focus of its cultural life. Headquartered there are most industrial organizations, the stock exchange, major newspapers, commercial centers, and publishing houses.
Tel Aviv, the first all-Jewish city in modern times, was founded in 1909 as a suburb of Jaffa (Yafo), one of the oldest urban settlements in the world. In 1934 Tel Aviv was granted municipal status, and in 1950 it was renamed Tel Aviv-Yafo, the new municipality absorbing old Jaffa. The area around the ancient port of Jaffa has been developed into an artists' colony and tourist center, with galleries, restaurants, and night clubs. Tel Aviv's "White City," a vast ensemble of buildings from the 1930s-1950s in the Modernist Movement style, has been recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage site.

Keeping your forklifts charged can be a major drain on resources. At Multi-Shifter we have a number of battery handling systems aimed at large fleets, but we also have products designed specifically for the needs of smaller forklift fleets. If your business runs only a few forklifts, let us show you how a battery handling system improves your company's operation.Safety FirstOne of the primary reasons our customers approach us is they are looking for a safer way to work with batteries. When you are handling electrically charged, acid-filled, hydrogen-producing blocks of lead, the opportunities for injury are staggering. This used to be accepted as just one of the risks of the job, but no longer.In most cases, these injuries are caused because workers are not using the right tools. Multi-Shifter battery handling systems have been designed specifically to keep workers safe from the dangers. Your employees can extract, transport and charge batteries from your forklift fleet while minimizing contact with the cells themselves. The less contact your employees have, the less chance they have of injury. An additional benefit is that safe workers are happy workers, and happy workers are productive workers.More Efficient Fleet OperationYou didn't buy forklifts just so they can sit in the warehouse plugged into a charging socket. You need them working at all hours your business is running. You wouldn't tolerate an idle worker, so why put up with idle equipment? You can swap out dead batteries for new ones, but doing that by hand takes time and during the operation that truck is not in service. For small fleets, the loss of one truck can have a huge impact on operations.Multi-Shifter battery handling systems allow you to switch batteries in a fraction of the time you could do it by hand. The drained cells can then be easily transported to a designated storage and charging area until they are ready to be placed in another vehicle.Save MoneyDo you think your company can't afford a battery handling system? Our equipment pays for itself in many ways, and you can't afford not to use the right tools for the job.When equipment is handled more safely, your company is at less risk of major injury liability expenses. Fewer injuries means less lost work time. Plus, as mentioned above, safe workers are more productive. The faster power cell changes made possible with our products means less disruption to fleet operation, allowing you to keep your business open for longer hours to generate more revenue and meet customer needs.A Multi-Shifter battery handling system is an investment in your company's operational efficiency. Contact us and let us help you choose the right equipment for your operation.

Friday Flickr Finds - "Explored" Edition
1. Plume Sails, 2. Finished Value Quilt, 3. City Green Front, 4. Old + New Quilt, 5. Picnic Whirlygiggle, 6. Denyse Schmidt inspired DS fabrics, 7. Avas Quilt, 8. Skipping Squares Quilt, 9. Weekend Assignment, 10. Arcadia charm bracelets, 11. crazy {9} quilt, 12. fruit pastilles
Each day, Flickr lists its 500 most "interesting" photos in the Explore section. It's amazing how often pictures of quilts pop up on that list. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to find out which photos have been Explored, even among your own contacts. So I thought it would be nice to start a Flickr group specifically for explored quilts.
Is Flickr's top-secret formula for determining a photo's "interestingness" valid? That's debatable. Two of my best quilts (in my opinion) didn't make it into Explore, while one photo that I considered a throwaway actually did. The whole thing can be a little mysterious. But you have to admit, there's some serious pretty up there in the mosaic.
So please go join the Explored Quilts Flickr group! And if you have photos of quilts that have been explored, please add them to the group. To find out which of your photos have been explored, go to http://flickr-explorer.com/ and type in your Flickr screen name.

Fun idea to start an Explored group - I totally agree about the "inerestingness" algorithm, or whatever it is - I suspect it has a thing for orange, given that the two photos I've had explore'd were both totally out of my comfort zone and very orange. Thank you for that eye candy - you've reminded me that I want to make a values quilt this year!! I totally love the one in your mosaic! :)

I'm always curious about the quilts that are explored vs. ones that aren't. I checked, just because I was curious. One of my favorite quilts I made this year was explored twice, a month apart. I think one of the pictures of it was "in progress" on my back deck... and most likely a picture i took with my iphone. Funny, funny. Luckily, its a quilt I love. Happy Friday.

What a great idea! Thanks for including my quilt.
Their definition of "interestingness" is ummm... interesting. There are a lot of theories out there but I have never seen one seem completely right.

ZF-6263: Bug in Zend_Mail subject in case of special charachters (ZF-2559 not fixed)
The following strings:
"Bekræftigelse af reservation med Goopoint Online Appointments den 16-04-2009 kl. 09:00." and "Bekræftigelse af reservation med Fullxml.dk den 24-04-2009 kl. 09:00."
Are set as the subject by Zend_Mail::setSubject();
When the e-mail is sent, they come out with unwanted extra spaces (after 09: and Fullxml.):
"Bekræftigelse af reservation med Goopoint Online Appointments den 16-04-2009 kl. 09: 00." and "Bekræftigelse af reservation med Fullxml. dk den 24-04-2009 kl. 09:00."
If the special character 'æ' is changed in 'a' then the spaces are gone. Hope this can be fixed.
This issue needs more informations.
For example, encoding of your string. it is ISO-8859-1 ? I do not know what language you use. use or not setHeaderEncoding() .
Dear Satoru Yoshida,
Here the answers to your questions:
The encoding is standard (ISO-8859-1) The language is Danish (but why is that important, it is about the character string I think) setHeaderEncoding isn't used, see the php code below:
This is the code when the problem occurs:<?php require_once('Zend/Mail.php'); $mail = new Zend_Mail(); $mail->setSubject('Bekræftigelse af reservation med Goopoint Online Appointments den 16-04-2009 kl. 09:00.'); $mail->setBodyText('Test'); $mail->addTo('email@example.com'); $mail->send(); ?>
Committed Fix to trunk.
Changed Zend_Mime::encodeQuotedPrintableHeader() again to only break at spaces. This is the only possible way to ensure in every setup that headers are displayed correctly in many different mail-clients when they are broken into several lines.
If problems occur with too long headers, because no spaces occur please use Base64 Encoding, which does not suffer from this problems.

FHP: NSB man ejected from vehicle, killed on I-4
Published: Monday, January 28, 2013 at 8:12 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, January 28, 2013 at 10:03 p.m.
A New Smyrna Beach man was killed Monday morning on Interstate 4 after he lost control of his vehicle and was thrown from the car, the Florida Highway Patrol said.
Joseph Wall, 26, lost control as he headed west on the interstate near Daytona Beach, said FHP Sgt. Kim Montes.
Wall, a probation officer who works for a company that contracts with Osceola County, was ejected from the 2002 Chevy sport utility vehicle and died at the scene just before 7 a.m., troopers said. He was not wearing a seat belt.
A statement by Montes says "court documents were spilled onto the roadway and have since been collected by officials."
Montes called the documents "court sensitive" but did not know what they were.
The crash remained under investigation.

Love us some Cut Chemist. "Outro (Revisited)" comes after the chemist was released from jail and reflected on his "strong urge to run." The adrenaline pumping track instantly grabs you with an addictive guitar riff and an exceptional vocal delivery from LA based rapper (and our pal) Blackbird. Basically, this song rules life.
Our plan? Playing it over and over and waving our hair around in a fury like we're in the baddest rock band of all time. You can join us by streaming the track on RollingStone.com.
The track is the first single from Die Cut (A Stable Sound).

I will be at the Sacramento Freethought Festival next week, Saturday, 6 October (2012). I will be selling and signing my books all day at a table, and participating in the Authors Q&A (which runs from 10:40 to 11:20). Come say hi. And buy some books! It'll help me bring home some income. I will also be attending the special reception the night before (Friday, 5 October).
The festival has become increasingly awesome the last few years, so there's lots to browse and watch and hear, with speakers and music and many authors and other vendors. This year it's at the Ben Ali Shrine Center from 10am to 7pm. Admission is free (so is parking), but if you register you get a shot at a door prize–and for a small donation, reserved seating for the main stage. There is an Events Schedule and lots of useful links and info at the event website if you want to know more or just explore. There are several cool speakers this year. Check it out.
The fundraising reception the night before is pretty awesome, too. If you want to attend that and drink and gladhand with various local and national celebrities, you can purchase a reservation that will help fund the event (all the details are on their Fundraising Reception page). You can also help keep the event going year after year by donating money, becoming an official sponsor, or volunteering (see their Support page for more; volunteers get a special dinner the Thursday before). You can also host a table if you have a product or organization or cause you want to promote.

Charity events are abundant in L.A., but this gathering, hosted by Lysa and Grant Heslov at the Pritzker estate, was one for the books—with 100 percent of the afternoon's proceeds (a cool $330,000) benefiting the nonprofit Children Mending Hearts. Partygoers indulged in generous, guilt-free shopping, while Quincy Jones and Jade Iovine were honored for their philanthropic endeavors. Making fashionable appearances alongside star stylist Brad Goreski and his longtime partner, Gary Janetti, were fellow tastemaker Tara Swennen and her fedora-donning daughter, Jordan. Hearts melted.

The first time I made this it came out fine and was a hit with my husband and a friend who likes Mexican but wouldn't necessarily eat vegetarian or healthy. The next time, I didn't have enough corn tortillas and since I live in Aqaba, Jordan, that meant I was unable to buy more anywhere in town. I substituted some whole wheat tortillas, bigger than my corn tortillas so I had to guess on the amount but figuring the idea was to make complete layers with both kinds. Following the cooking directions and other ingredients exactly, I ended up with a very soupy casserole. I think it was the substitution so I put some more WW tortillas on top to absorb the sauce but the casserole was still not the same texture. Lesson learned: don't substitute for the corn tortillas and buy some up in Amman this week!
Chilaquiles Casserole
From EatingWell: June/July 2006
Our version of this enchilada-style chilaquiles casserole is packed with nutritious beans and vegetables. Canned prepared enchilada sauce has great flavor and keeps the prep time quick. It can vary in heat level so find one that suits your taste. If you want to eliminate the heat altogether, try a green enchilada sauce (which is often milder than red) or substitute two 8-ounce cans of plain tomato sauce.
162 Reviews for Chilaquiles Casserole
What a delicious way to get those beans in! And so quick to make. It's a keeper! Great with sour cream.
This is fabulous, and fun to make with family. I add shredded cooked chicken for my husband. It just adds a little more substance to it. I prefer it without...but it's good either way.
I made this a week ago and froze the left-overs, thinking I'd eat them over the course of the next few weeks. After one week it's all gone. The only changes I made were adding a bit less onion, and adding some cilantro and cinnamon, about a half teaspoon each.
We added green peppers, which we sauteed along with the onions, and we used fresh corn cut from the cob. The added peppers added interest and the fresh corn popped in our mouths. We made the enchilada sauce with cocoa, which even with extra chili pepper, was bland, so we added some adobo sauce that we got in the Latino section of our supermarket and was laying about in the freezer, left over from another recipe. The added adobo sauce, with its peppers, really added interest to the enchlada sauce. With these additions, the Chilaquiles casserole was really good.

Then I completed that degree in 1967 at age 26 with a one-year old; I was told I looked younger than the undergraduates and should wait a decade. After working in human needs programs and earning doctoral credits, I was virtually offered a position until the Dean discovered I had children: "We wouldn't want those babies to become motherless if you had an accident on the way to class."
After two decades, san husbands, I used government severance pay to complete doctoral credits and watch my middle daughter. Letters to department heads resulted in a last-minute interview when a teacher was promoted. I taught sociology, psychology, and communications as a community college adjunct (paid per course), using my policy experience for real-world examples. Then I tried a dozen colleges and universities around the Washington Beltway until I became the poster child for adjuncts (cover page of Community College Week).
To keep my five children housed, I'd taken out my federal retirement of $37,000 and kept earning under Social Security, which now pays $800+ a month. Retirement without paid work is not an option. Instead, I've continued to tutor, edit papers, evaluate proposals, advise students and parents, and teach classes, where I can help people thrive. Luckily, I still look "too young" and am more flexible than most of my young students (despite health problems).
Currently, I'm teaching as an adjunct at the Loudoun campus of Northern Virginia Community College, which supplements our pay with special projects and honors us with awards My week is filled with writing, professional presentations, and advocacy work. When I meet again with women who have not contributed, or who retired to not work, we marvel in the apparent differences in our ages. In my eighth decade, I'm still finding out what I want to do "when I grow up."

I'm not a fan of "hot" candies, nor am I a fan of Twizzlers. So by all logic, I should have avoided this new variety of Twizzlers at all costs. Yet, I found myself intrigued by them. No, I can't explain it, but something about them called to me like the sirens from the shelf. I was helpless and could only comply to their evil candy wishes.
You can smell their spiciness right away which is a very sweet, warm, cinnamon aroma. I'm reminded of red hots or atomic fireballs. The Twizzlers are the pull 'n peel variety, meaning they're not the standard ribbed licorice tube, but instead a rope of twisted laces of licorice. The color is very dark, a deep crimson. It's also extremely soft and pliable, I was expecting them to have a more plastic like consistency.
Peeling off the first strand was quite fun as these beauties really prefer to remain stuck together. I popped a piece in my mouth and to my surprise, I liked it. And this comes from a gal who hates "hot" candies, so please understand the magic that is happening here. The cinnamon flavor is vivid and strong, but it's just enough to register as "hot" but decides to play nice and instead of burning your mouth out, it levels off with a subtle sweetness. The texture is the best part, it's wonderfully soft and chewy, but not sticky. I found myself pulling and peeling another lace off the rope before I realized what I was doing.
The bag of these won't last long, I assure you. The biggest surprise of all, I found a Twizzler product I actually like. Hershey's finally found a way to take my main complaint of Twizzler's typical "lack of intense" flavor to work in it's favor. And that's what Twizzler's Fire does. Yum!

Great Stay!!!

Had a good time at the Staybridge suites off NE Loop 410 in San Antonio, Loved the breakfast in the morning and very friendly staff. Best part is all the good restaurants were in walking distance and so was the mall.
Lots of room

Meet NASA astronaut Nicole Passonno Stott, who left for space—where she will live for four months, working at the International Space Station—on August 25. Our paths crossed when she asked NASA if MORE could supply her with an electronic version that she could read up there—an idea that was so cool we said yes right away, then got Stott to become our first interplanetary blogger. Now 3, 2, 1 . . . read!
August 22, 2009
We're wrapping up our week of quarantine and looking forward to launch in a couple days. In preparation for our scheduled launch time of 1:35 in the morning on August 25, we have been sleep shifting—with a pretty tough sleep shift going to bed at 7 am and getting up at 3 pm. Most of our time in quarantine is spent organizing our procedures and support materials for the flight, exercising, and thankfully having the chance to relax a little before launch. Today, as a crew, we had the opportunity to spend a couple hours at the beach that's on the property near the space center. It was a beautiful day.
A few of my crewmates were running on the beach and came across an amazing sight—about 50 baby turtles had just hatched and were making their way to the ocean. They stood back and watched as all of the little turtles made their way quickly down the beach and toward the water. On their way back they noticed one small turtle alone in the sand and on its back. The rest of us were just a short way down the beach, so they called us to come to down and see the turtle.
Our time at the beach gave us a very special gift – finding a little turtle on the beach that we could help find its way to the water. We all were smiling big as we watched the little turtle swimming out and through the waves. It made me think about how there have already been a lot of little things in preparation for this flight that have meant a lot to me. Sometimes it's the little things that mean the most (so I guess they really are the big things—like getting back in touch with old friends, the last hug with my family before going into quarantine, and unexpected things like encounters with a little turtle on the beach.
August 19, 2009
At 46 years old, I'm a mother, I'm a wife, and I'm a NASA astronaut who's about to make her first space flight. I'm writing this blog to try and share some of my experiences preparing for the flight and then once on orbit I hope there will be some surprising things to share with you about living and working in space.
Like so many things in life, this job has proven for me that time really does fly when you're having fun. It was a "mere" 9 years ago that I received the exciting news that I had been selected as a member of the NASA Astronaut Class of 2000. I found myself very fortunately with 16 other people that would make up the eighteenth group of NASA astronauts.
Flying in space is most certainly the goal of any astronaut, but what you have to accept is that no matter how quickly you get assigned to your first space flight you are ultimately going to spend the majority of your time as an astronaut working here on the planet. Fortunately, the work and training is all very cool, and has been filled with challenges and opportunities to experience things that I'm pretty certain wouldn't have been possible for me otherwise.
The past 9 years have been fun and the time has flown by. Along the way my husband and I have been blessed with a beautiful son, I have visited places around the world that I never imagined I would ever have the chance to see, and we have made some lifelong friends. And now, to top it off, I'm going to have the amazing opportunity to fly in space—launching this summer on the Space Shuttle Discovery mission STS-128, living and working for 4 months as a crewmember onboard the International Space Station (ISS), and then returning to Earth on the Space Shuttle Atlantis mission STS-129.
Look for our interview with Stott in our September issue, on newsstands since August 25.

Rated 4.8 out of 5 by 4 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by N Love this table! We use this in our contemporary breakfast room. Looks sleek but with lots of character. So far so good! June 10, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by OOH Momma LOVE THIS TABLE This table is stunning. Funny thing is another high end store has a similar table but was much more expensive. The quality and price was just unbeatable! I agree with the other reviewer...we weren't crazy about the chairs that were sold with this table. We also purchased the bench but added two wicker arm chairs for the end and then purchased two parsons chairs. WE LOVE IT! As far as the table top goes..so far so good. I am curious to see how it wears with my two kids, both under the age of 8, but....as the previous reviewer wrote...we purchased the table at such a good price turning the top into a chalk board is a great idea! This table is also VERY HEAVY but one of the easiest pieces we have put together. We have received a ton of compliments on the table. We are very happy with our choice! April 22, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Artsy Mama Really makes a statement! We LOVE the look of this table, it was extremely easy to assemble, but you will definitely need plenty of help to get this home and inside (it is HEAVY!!!). We mixed and matched the seating - the Brooklyn style chairs didn't look too appealing to me (the wash looked funny on many that were assembled in the store). We opted instead for one Brooklyn bench, two Provence chairs, and three of the wicker Kooboo chairs. Plenty of seating now! Because of the rustic wash the mix & match looks fantastic!!! We even got a Campaign bookshelf for our extra dishes, sort of like an open hutch. The dining room looks great and I can't believe the deal we got on everything. Just the [@] table we were considering buying before finding this Brooklyn collection was more expensive than the entire set we got! I'm interested in seeing how the tabletop will wear, but if the finish does come off I think I'm going to paint the top with grey chalkboard paint for my son or dinner guest to color on! Very very happy to have this table in my home!!! April 3, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by profsteph Beautiful table with sensitive surface We've had this table for over a month now, and it's one of my favorite pieces of furniture. A few observations: It is very sturdy. I hosted Thanksgiving this year, and a few times my guests bumped the table. The table didn't wobble a bit. The bench goes very nicely with it, and has a smooth finish to the top (no slivers, no trouble cleaning it). I would consider my style "contemporary farmhouse" and the table is a perfect match. The instructions for the table say to use a placemat when writing or eating on the table. Because of the beautiful gray cover, I didn't want to cover it up with placemats or a table cloth, but it is true that it scratches easily. We have three kids--one a toddler--and in one week they managed to put a few scratches on the top, two of which left a small discoloration (I know the company says the table is dyed all the way through, but I think a few places on the table must not be). Even I put a small scratch on the table when I left a stack of stapled papers on it--yep, the staples left a tiny scratch. Because I love the style of the table, rather than give up on it, we bought a huge piece of glass to sit on top of the table (recommended to us by a salesperson at World Market). Even spending a couple hundred dollars on glass still made this table less expensive than one at a competing retailer. Obviously, this changes the look somewhat because it makes the top glossy rather than matte, but I'm very happy I did this. Plus, having a glass top allows for me to put papers under the glass and let my kids draw on it with dry erase markers. Easy clean up. So, overall, the top is not super-durable, but it's still a gorgeous table and now that we have it protected, I expect it will last a long time. November 25, 2012

Wilmarie Dominguez' son, Nicholas, 12, was born with cerebral palsy, epilepsy and hypertonia. He cannot speak, see or stand.
Yet, Ms. Dominguez says, "he has given me a lot of strength."
But this strength was not enough to combat her landlord's threats to evict them. She sought help from Catholic Charities.
Thanks to Catholic Charities' successful intervention, she can continue caring for Nicholas in their home, pureeing his food so that he can swallow it, changing his diapers and pushing him in his wheelchair to his myriad of medical appointments.
In her world, "there's no me," she says. "There's just him."

Want to study the best case for and against the historicity of Jesus? Want to pick my brain about that for a whole month? CFI has asked me to teach another online course on that very subject this July (that's right, just three weeks from now) entitled Did Jesus Exist? Navigating the Debate. You can read about and register for this course at the CFI Institute website. Tuition varies from $30 to $70 depending on your status. You will also need a copy of my book Proving History (so if you don't already have one you should buy one now or as soon as you register, since Amazon shipping can take a week, unless you pay more for faster delivery). Unfortunately Prometheus still hasn't come out with any electronic versions of the book yet (that's still in production apparently). But Amazon is selling the hard cover at a cut rate price (I still get the same royalty so it doesn't affect me).
In this one-month online course I will help you examine the methods of historians, their relationship to the leading theories about the historical Jesus, and the available evidence both for and against his existence, and teach you how best to evaluate arguments on either side (including how to check facts, spot fallacies, and avoid bad arguments).
Week 1: The methods of historians and how to tell good history from bad.
Week 2: The evidence for the historicity of Jesus and its context and value.
Week 3: The most credible theories of the evidence (supporting historicity and not).
Week 4: The best criticisms and responses to those theories.
I have taught online courses for the CFI Institute before, on Naturalism and the Origins of Christianity. The process is basically this: on your own time you complete the assigned readings each week (which will include not just assignments from the course text but also special materials, such as articles, lectures or videos, provided for free through the online course interface), answer each week's assignment question in an online forum, and ask any questions you want in that forum by starting new threads there, then we move on to the next week's topic. Everyone's behavior is expected to be professional and in the service of learning.
Obviously with only one month, and one week per topic, we won't be able to get into thorough detail on everything, but you can get a lot of questions answered and learn a lot about how to approach this debate more informedly afterward. I will also be providing students a short precis of the argument I will make in my next book On the Historicity of Jesus Christ (in the third week of the course), which we can discuss the merits of over the last two weeks of the course.

Let's say somebody (OK, me) wanted to pamper herself but felt hesitant to rob a bank. One lower-risk alternative: searching online for sites that offer discount coupons. Groupon is the big kahuna, but the other sites work basically the same way: Choose your city (in my case, New York), category (beauty! escapes!), find a deal and click to prepay. My first stop was, natch, Groupon. Immediately, up popped an offerfor half-price admission to the Museum of Sex. I passed (not the type of pampering I had in mind); ditto thecolonic for 68 percent off. Next up:
Btreated.com offers last-minute deals on luxury treatments; I purchased a $150 next-day facial for $90. One disappointment: Clarins facialist Nicole gave me a creamy, swirly massage rather than a dig-in-and-get-those-blackheads overhaul. Nonetheless, my blackheads and I left feeling relaxed.
Sparahrah.com promised"90 minutes of delightful decadence" in Setai Spa's "Tour of Asia," a $285 value for $199. Before starting, I also had access to the spa's gym and an aromatherapy session in which I was the only client. At least I think I was the only one. The room was so steamed up, I couldn't have seen a marching band. My "Asia" tour included a Vietnam mud bath, Japanese bamboo body scrub, Calcutta poultices and Thai massage. Korea was also in there somewhere. Only once was I lost in translation: When handed a sponge-shaped dumpling, I used it to exfoliate. Apparently it was a dumpling-shaped dessert, and I was supposed to eat it.
Yipit.com is the Travelocity of daily online deals, an aggregation site with more than 800 sources, including Groupon.It led me to AtHomeStars .com, where you can "instantly book services offered by local stars." I chose a $35 wine-and-chocolate-tasting event, corralling my friend Diane to join me. Our local star, Suzy Mae, an adorable former restaurant hostess with a Southern accent, was younger than a good wine. Although we were the only two in the class (being her first online-coupon clients), she opened four high-end bottles, at which point we told her to rethink her business plan. Buzzed from the wine, we later grew even more protective, advising Suzy Mae that her online offer to show up at private homes might be a bad idea.
Kgbdeals.com flashed a $99 chance to drive a Lamborghini at 100 mph, but I'm not an insured driver (a requirement). So how about pursuing a self-improvement fantasy? I headed off to a two-hour boot camp at American Bartenders School with my $29 coupon (value: $70) from Livingsocial.com. In a class of 19, I was the only student taking notes. And the only one over age 25. I now know that the cooler, collins and chimney are all served in the same type of glass; peppermint schnapps is 100 proof; and a scooper left in the ice is a $500 health-department fine. I can also mix a mean martini.
Goldstar.com offers deals on entertainment like con-certs, theater and the swing class I chose at Zack's Dance Loft (value: $67; cost:
$32). I no sooner arrived than Zack announced we'd be tangoing instead. About 20 of us mowed through several bottles of Argentine wine and platters of cheese before Zack had us happily stepping and sliding.

The Boddie Recording Company (located at 12202 Union Avenue), run by Thomas and Louise Boddie, was Cleveland's first African-American owned and operated recording studio, recording a wide range of genres ranging from gospel, soul, and rhythm & blues, to rock, bluegrass, and country. Harvey Hall, best known as the leader of Harvey and the Phenomenals, recorded three singles at Boddie including "Soul & Sunshine" (Da-Wood, 1971).
In 2011, archival record label Numero Group released the box set Boddie Recording Company: Cleveland, Ohio, which contained 58 tracks on three CDs (or 65 tracks on five LPs) representing the best of the Boddies' in-house Soul Kitchen, Luau, and Bounty labels.

Rated 4 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Yeehaw Tricky to assemble, but worth it! Pros: Looks great, is sturdy, and provides generous storage space Cons: Assembly required power tools to correct the gross misalignment of holes for pegs. The black wood finish is worn off in some places, revealing bright RED colored wood underneath. The finished bench seats two people, but the wood is hard so it's not very comfortable. The addition of cushions would improve this. August 26, 2014

The Spirit of Christmas
About This Show
- Summary
South Park follows a large cast of characters in Colorado, and all around the universe beyond their quiet little whitebread mountain town that the show is named after.
Stan Marsh is a Catholic boy that attends church every now and then, has a girlfriend named Wendy, and his father (Randy) is a scientist... In fact, he's the only scientist in South Park. Sharon is his loving, complex mother, and he has a greedy, mean-spirited sister that's going through puberty. Don't forget about grandpa, who always wants to die, and his radical right-wing gun-toting uncle, Jimbo.
Kyle Broflovski is a devote Jewish boy that comes from a stereotypical yet caring Jewish family, where his mother (Sheila) tries to decide for every child's parents, and his lawyer father, Gerald, who loves money almost as much as his adopted Canadian son, Ike, who is Kyle's toddler sibling.
Eric Cartman is possibly the most notorious character in town, barking religious insults at Kyle, whom he claims to despise. His mother, who is all actuality is his father with a sex change operation, bakes him tons of sweets and other things to keep him nice and plump, so that he can appear as non-offensive as possible.
The rest of the colorful cast, ranging from Jesus Christ to Chef (the R&B-crooning cafeteria cook) to Kenny (the kid that dies in every episode), helps make South Park the weirdest place to live... at least in the States.

The Global White Lion Protection Trust (WLT)
A leader in community-based conservation.
The White Lion Trust is a registered NPO/Public Benefit Organisation, situated in a Protected Area of nearly 4,400 acres of endemic bushveld, acquired by the White Lion Trust, where 3 prides of White Lions have been integrated with wild golden lions and reintroduced to their natural system in a carefully-phased scientific reintroduction program. Since commercial trophy hunting of lions takes place on our borders, this Protected Area is electrified with hi-spec predator-proof fencing to provide a safe environment for the critically endangered White Lions to roam freely in their ancestral heritage lands. Founded in 2002 by Linda Tucker, after nearly 10 years of intensive research on both the cultural and conservation importance of the unique White Lions in this region, the White Lion Trust has a strong track record over 2 decades of creating mutual benefits for Lions, Land, and People.
The White lions
A global heritage, which occurred in one place only on earth.
Endemic to the Timbavati and Kruger regions at the epicentre of the UNESCO-declared Kruger-to-Canyons Biosphere (K2C), the White Lions are a genetic rarity of Panthera leo. Their conservation significance within this wildlife ecosystem is matched by their iconic cultural value in local Tsonga and Sepedi communities, supported by other indigenous authorities around the globe. Today, however, after 6 decades of forcible removals from their endemic habitat, most White Lions are held captive in zoos and circuses worldwide. They may be commercially hunted in their wild habitat, and worse: speed-bred to be killed as victims of the notorious 'Canned Hunting' industry. Tragically, there are 100s of White Lions in captivity; but less than 13 in the wilds of their endemic habitat.
Our Mission
Creating a LionHearted World for Lions, Land and People
Over 2 decades, the White Lion Trust has implemented a multi-level strategy, which celebrates culture, advances social learning, uplifts the local living economy, and revives the biodiversity and dignity of human life and wildlife. This Lionhearted Leadership Model is inspiring 'revival beyond mere survival': restoring health and prosperity to the human world, and abundance to the natural kingdom. By saving the White Lions – supreme indicators of Natural Order – we are saving the whole of nature, including ourselves.
In the wake of the tragic unlawful killing of Cecil the Lion, the White Lion Trust is appealing to all our supporters to take positive action.
LionHearted Call to Action – How you can help.
The White Lion Trust partners with PAL
We're proud to be partnering with PAL (Protecting African Lions) who are donating ALL the proceeds from their iconic bracelets to the White Lions.
