Department Chair: Elaine Rutherford
Faculty: Lisa Cotton, Dennis Frandrup OSB, James Hendershot, Samuel Johnson, David Paul Lange OSB, Elaine Rutherford, Andrea Shaker, Lisa Stanley, Robert Wilde
The art department educates both art majors and non-majors in the theory, practice and history of art. This education involves the understanding of historical development of art in contemporary and past cultures, understanding the critical process used to assess art forms, understanding the meaning and evolution of art theories, understanding the basic concepts related to the structure of forms and understanding the technical aspects of art. This education is intended to prepare students for careers or further education in art. For the non-major, this education provides a preliminary understanding of art forms, the creative process and a beginning ability to employ critical analysis.
The department's studios, located on both campuses, provide facilities for drawing, design, painting, ceramics, printmaking, sculpture, jewelry, computer art and photography. The Benedicta Arts Center Galleries and Saint John's Art Galleries schedule diverse exhibitions of artwork throughout the year. Special areas are available for exhibition of student work. Visiting artists, speakers, artists-in-residence, field trips and workshops supplement the students' experience of the art world.
Student learning and progress is assessed by means of critiques and portfolio reviews. Each course within the department has a strong component that addresses the critique process. Students learn how to interact with one another and the instructor to determine their strengths, weaknesses and how they might achieve better results in their work. At the conclusion of each semester's work, a final critique is held with the instructor and student to assess the student's progress.
Portfolio reviews are made to determine the student's readiness to enter the major and/or to assess the student's growth within her/his course of studies.
The art department offers a concentration in studio art, and minors in art history and art education.
Concentration in Studio Art (42 credits)
The studio art major allows students to combine a liberal education with preparation for graduate school or entry into careers as exhibiting artists, designers, elementary or secondary school teachers and other art-related fields. Students successfully completing the programs are academically prepared to apply for graduate study in studio art. They may plan careers as exhibiting artists, art teachers in secondary or elementary schools, or professionals in various art-related fields.

'Eastbound' arrives in Port City
Published: Monday, April 8, 2013 at 4:19 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, April 8, 2013 at 4:19 p.m.
Wilmington | HBO's "Eastbound and Down" opened offices on Monday at Wilmington's EUE/Screen Gems Studios, so it looks like Southeastern North Carolina's favorite foul-mouthed ball player will soon be back in the region.
The series, which wrapped season three with its lead character, Kenny Powers (Danny McBride), riding off into the sunset, will pick up after the arrogant hero's disappearance, according to Collider.com. The entertainment website, which interviewed McBride during his recent WonderCon appearance, reported that the fourth season will likely be the last for the screwball comedy.
"Eastbound" began filming in Southeastern North Carolina in 2008. Seasons two and three were filmed in Puerto Rico, Wilmington and Myrtle Beach.
Season four is expected to kick off filming in the region in early May.

An elegant Halloween (or Thanksgiving!!) (31 photos)
Sign In or Register Now
Here is the concept. I decorate my home for fall. I add "touches" of design to make it "Halloween" and then they come down at the end of October and I add "touches" of design to make it more Thanksgiving. When I host a party….I always start by looking at what I have around my home to decorate with so that I don't have to buy and store a ton of party supplies that are used just for that day……..and that's where this idea came from!!!
I designed a party that would use the "decorations" I already had in my home, then show how you can use the same party supplies and decor to host a Halloween Party and the REUSE & RECYCLE the items used or left over {…other than the food served….that's gross} to host a lovely Thanksgiving Dinner!!
First up is Halloween – I LOVE this traditional feel used for Halloween…which is rather untraditional!! A brown and cream Halloween blends perfectly into so many homes of my friends and family….and orange and black just don't always…so there you have it! The Halloween table featured a Halloween Sign, Halloween Cupcake toppers, and rhinestone spiders and web stickers on the pumpkins.
White pumpkins carry through both holidays seamlessly! I used paper doilies and paper pumpkin cut outs to create very effective and inexpensive table runners!
When you move on to Thanksgiving….use it all again! This time, simply switch out the sign with the Thanksgiving Sign (Free Download at the bottom of the page), Thanksgiving Circles (another Free Download at the bottom of the page), and the Thanksgiving invite (comes with the Halloween invite for only $5 in the Etsy Shop!)
Thanksgiving in my absolute, hands down, favorite Holiday and if we end up traveling, you better be sure I will be packing up these pumpkins so I can use this design where ever we are! Here is the Thanksgiving table!!
And of course a staple at every party around this house….a KIDS TABLE! This is a kids table that can work for either party! With a sweet creamer dish to hold crayons, and white pumpkin cut outs to color on, the kids are sure to have fun waiting for the sweets to be served!
I hope you enjoyed the inspiration shoot and I really HOPE you enjoy the free printable Signs and Circles to use in the upcoming Holidays!!!! I have such happiness in my heart just thinking of the season ahead with family and friends!

The Utah Attorney General's Office on Wednesday morning arrested a former Park City Police Department sergeant on charges that he embezzled upward of $65,000 over a five-year span from the department and two fraternal police organizations.
Robert Lucking, 50, faces five felony charges between three criminal cases brought against him on Tuesday. The charges include theft and a count of failing to keep or pay public money. The most serious are second-degree felonies, punishable by a prison sentence of between one and 15 years and a $10,000 fine upon conviction. In one of the cases, he is accused of stealing a handgun from the evidence room of the Police Department.
The Summit County Attorney's Office said he was arrested at his place of work in Salt Lake. He was being held at the Summit County Jail on Wednesday morning. A statement from the Summit County Attorney's Office said bail on the individual cases is set at either $5,000 or $10,000, cash only.
Lucking retired from the Police Department in late 2012 amid the investigation into the missing money. He was hired in 2002 and promoted to sergeant in 2006.
"It's always disheartening to see members of the law enforcement profession charged with crimes of dishonesty because we put so much trust in them," said Matthew Bates, the Summit County prosecutor who filed the charges against Lucking.
Bates said the Lucking is accused of embezzling money from the Park City lodge of the Fraternal Order of Police, the Fraternal Order of Police lodge in Layton and the Park City Police Department itself.
Most of the money -- approximately $60,000 -- was taken from the Fraternal Order of Police lodge in Park City, Bates said. The money was taken between 2007 and 2012, he said. Lucking once was the president of the Park City lodge.
The Summit County Attorney's Office said in its statement Lucking "became the target of several embezzlement-related criminal investigations after a routine audit conducted by the Park City Police Department."
The Police Department determined that crimes may have been committed and referred the probe to the attorney general, the statement said.
Police Chief Wade Carpenter said he is disappointed.
"There's a level of professionalism and trust that's expected by the community," he said.
Carpenter said the Police Department immediately addressed the issues raised in the cases against Lucking by contacting an outside law enforcement agency to investigate.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's Library and Archives Author Series will welcome biographer Peter Carlin for a live interview on Tuesday, December 4 at 7 p.m. Dr. Lauren Onkey, vice president of education and public programs, will interview Carlin about his work and acclaimed biography, BRUCE, which highlights the life and music of 1999 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductee Bruce Springsteen. This event will take place in the Library Reading Room of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's Library and Archives (2809 Woodland Avenue, Cleveland). After the interview, Carlin will answer questions from the audience and participate in a book signing.
This event is free with a reservation. Seating is limited. Reservations can be made through the Rock Hall website at https://tickets.rockhall.com or at the Rock Hall Box Office. Rock Hall Members can RSVP starting at 10 a.m. on Monday, November 19. General public can RSVP starting at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, November 20.
The Rock Hall's Author Series brings journalists, critics and scholars to the Library and Archives for free readings and discussion sessions. Authors of both new books and classic texts will be invited on a regular basis.
BRUCE, a sweeping portrait by acclaimed music writer Peter Ames Carlin, is the first biography in 25 years to be written with the full cooperation of Springsteen himself. Unprecedented access to the artist, his family, his friends, and bandmates past and present—including Clarence Clemons in his final major interview—adds vivid, intimate detail and context to a groundbreaking picture of one of America's greatest musicians. (November 6, 2012; Touchstone; $28 Hardcover; 978-1-4391-9182-8)
For more than four decades, Bruce Springsteen has voiced the hopes, triumphs, and heartaches of working class America through a remarkable career that has yielded twenty Grammy Awards, more than 120 million albums sold, two Golden Globes and an Academy Award. Carlin's biography encompasses the breadth of Springsteen's life and music, following the Elvis-loving grade-schooler with a rented guitar as he grows into a scruffy young bandleader, then rockets into orbit with the critical and commercial hit Born to Run, the keystone of a musical legacy that would reflect and shape the culture—right up to Bruce's current sold-out tour and #1 album, Wrecking Ball.
Peter Carlin is the New York Times bestselling author of Catch a Wave: The Rise, Fall & Redemption of the Beach Boys' Brian Wilson and Paul McCartney: A Life. He has been a senior writer for People and a television critic for the Oregonian newspaper. Carlin lives with his family in Portland, Oregon.
The Library and Archives is at 2809 Woodland Avenue in Cleveland, Ohio. The facility is at the corner of Woodland Avenue and East 30th Street, in a shared building with the Tommy LiPuma Center for Creative Arts of Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C). This is approximately two miles southeast of the Museum. Metered parking spaces are available on the street in front of the building or around the block. From there, walk in the building's main entrance, enter the lobby, and the entrance to the Library and Archives will be immediately on the right. There is also a Visitor Parking area in Lot 6 of the parking garage. These spaces should be paid for at meter stations located nearby. From the garage, enter the building's back entrance, take the elevator on the left to the first floor, enter the lobby, and look for the entrance to the Library and Archives on the left.

Boards and members behaving badly
I was talking to a group of owners in a condominium complex that disagree with the board on many issues. One of them said that in most cases, when one of them asks a valid question, or submits a records request, the board responds by sending an e-mail to all unit owners publishing the name and unit number of the person looking for the information. They felt the board was painting them in a bad light with the other owners, even though they certainly had the right to the information. They asked me whether it was legal for the board to notify owners of our questions or records inspections.
I told them there was nothing in the Florida Condominium Act that prevented the Board of Directors from distributing this information. But, just because it's probably legal, that does not make it right.
Like a bad marriage, there are always two sides to the story and in most cases three or more sides to the same story.
Under Florida condominium law, the board is vested with significant power. With that power comes responsibility. Unit owners are granted a list of rights by statute that they are entitled to exercise, including the right to inspect the association's official records. In my opinion, a board that attempts to scorn those who legitimately exercise those rights is behaving badly, though probably not acting illegally.
That said, there are certainly owners who are not well suited for condominium ownership and take out their frustrations on the board through incessant, and usually unproductive, interactions with the association. I have seen situations where such individuals are single-handedly responsible for the majority of an association's legal budget, as well as cases where an association cannot keep a manager because no one wants to deal with this owner. In those cases, I would argue that there is a legitimate basis for communicating the facts of the matter in a professional and neutral manner.

ZF-7114: Module name missing from actions in zend_tool created module controllers
When an action is created in a module using zend_tool, the module name isn't prefixed to the action in the controller.
The command, "zf.sh create controller index index-action-included=1 admin," creates an IndexController in the application/modules/admin/controllers directory, with an action named "IndexAction" instead of "Admin_IndexAction".

If you've been on campus the last few days; teams practicing, students arriving and the Pride of Arizona working on its routine well after the sun goes down; you know it's that time again. It's the start of a new year, which means football season is right around the corner.
Last year, we were in the midst of upgrading Arizona Stadium and our football facilities, which we know presented some challenges on gameday, but with the opening of the LSFF, the construction is complete and traffic flow should be much more manageable during the 2013 campaign. Pregame activities will be the same as in year's past with tailgating on the mall and Wildcat Walk when the team arrives two hours prior to kickoff, but you'll notice some differences as you make your way into Arizona Stadium.
The stadium has an upgraded navigation pattern thanks to the construction and new amenities that should make for an improved gameday experience. You'll notice new entry points along the west side of the stadium that should increase traffic flow in and around the stadium. Elevators and stair wells in the northwest and northeast sections, which feed onto the concourse, make getting to and from your seat a much easier process.
Most prominently featured is the new north end zone lower-bowl seating and LSFF club seating, complete with concessions and restrooms, and the introduction of the luxurious Sands Club. Not only does the new addition beautify the stadium as a whole, but it now connects the east and west sides offering increased traffic flow.
Pay special attention when navigating the stadium as we again pay tribute to the state's copper-mining history. The new northeast and northwest stairwells are copper-colored, which complement the copper elements on the south-side face of Arizona Stadium and the perimeter of the McKale Center. Another less visible tribute, but one with immense importance, is the addition of a copper-colored Bear Down stitched into the interior of our jerseys, located under the back collar.
As kickoff approaches, you'll need to retrain your eyes as the team prepares to take the field. Instead of the customary entrance from the northwest corner of the stadium, the Wildcats will now hit the fresh, new FieldTurf from their entrance centered behind the north goal posts.
From there, the environment and energy comes from a combination of the play on the field and the emotion in the stands. Take advantage of the new additions and help us make Arizona Stadium one of the best atmospheres in college football.
See you Friday.

Full disclosure: I stumbled into the marketing and communications assistant role at Catholic Theological Union by accident. And I couldn't be more thrilled about it.
After receiving a master's degree in journalism from Northwestern, yet realizing the last thing I wanted to become was a full-time reporter, I applied to a wide variety of jobs from office manager at a boutique investment firm to community engagement officer at Chicago Public Schools.
Meanwhile, unbeknownst to me, a hiring manager forwarded my resume to CTU.
I'll admit, I was hesitant at first to throw my hat into the ring at a Catholic institution, because I was born and raised a practicing Buddhist! Especially in the field of communications, I thought, maybe they want someone with more intimate… or, really, any knowledge of Catholicism!
Ryan Hoffman quickly put my doubts to rest during my first interview. "What really matters to us is to have a diverse community of people who share an interest in asking the big questions," he said. "What or who is God? What is our purpose in life? How can we live the most meaningful life?"
WOW! My life has always been based on the big questions, albeit not in a Catholic context, so the idea of gaining valuable professional experience within an interfaith setting was intriguing.
I reflected on a dialogue between Ricardo Díez-Hochleitner, a practicing Catholic and past president of the Club of Rome, and a Buddhist peace advocate, Daisaku Ikeda, about the need for interreligious understanding in the 21st century and beyond.
"For me, it has always been most important not only to be tolerant towards other beliefs and cultures, but also, and even more important, to respect everyone who acts honestly and consistently in line with their background and aims," Díez-Hochleitner said. "I try to learn from others to enrich my spirit and intellect, while contributing somehow to their well-being, advancement and happiness."
The aim to create a global society, respectful of differences, is what I experience every day at CTU. I am surrounded by people who share my desire for peace and understanding in the world, just through a different lens of faith. At CTU, I am daily learning from others to enrich my spirit and intellect, as Díez-Hochleitner said, and I truly hope to be contributing to CTU's well-being, advancement, and happiness, as well.

|Academic All-American
MOSCOW, Idaho – University of Idaho women's cross country/track and field athlete Hannah Kiser was recognized on Thursday as a Capital One Academic All-America honoree for the first time in her career.
Kiser, a sophomore distance runner from Wenatchee, Wash., was named to the Academic All-America Second Team in her first year of eligibility for the honor. She has a 4.0 cumulative grade-point average as a double-major in Molecular Biology and Biotechnology.
"This really means a lot to me," Kiser said. "Before I was an athlete, I was always very academic-oriented and I think working hard in school transfers over to athletics, so being able to succeed at both is very, very important to me. I'm very honored to receive this award."
Kiser is in Moscow this summer as an IDeA Network of Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE) fellow, taking part in undergraduate research in chemistry. She plans to attend pharmacy school and work in medical research after her time at Idaho.
She is the fifth Vandal track and field athlete to earn the honor since 2008 and the first since thrower James Rogan and fellow distance runner Allix Potratz-Lee were both Second Team honorees in 2010. Kiser was the only sophomore selected to either the men's or women's Academic All-America team in 2012.
"Hannah's athletic accomplishments speak for themselves and these recent academic honors show how impressive she really is as a student-athlete," Idaho director of track and field/cross country Wayne Phipps said on Thursday. "She strives for excellence in every way and it's just amazing to see."
The honor is Kiser earned Second-Team All-America honors from the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) during the indoor season after finishing 13th in the 3000m at the NCAA Indoor Championships.
Kiser also broke the Idaho school record and the Western Athletic Conference all-time and championship meet records in the 3000m, became the first Vandal woman to sweep the mile and 3000m titles at a single conference championship meet and helped Idaho's distance medley relay take the WAC title in meet-record fashion.
In the 2011 cross country season, Kiser set school course records in nearly every outing and led Idaho to its second-consecutive WAC team title. She finished 18th at the NCAA West Region Championships to earn USTFCCCA All-Region honors and earn Idaho's first NCAA Cross Country Championships bid since 2004.
She is a six-time WAC champion and an eight-time First-Team All-WAC honoree between cross country, indoor track and outdoor track. Kiser is undefeated in her track and field career against WAC competition and is just the second woman at Idaho history to be an NCAA qualifier in cross country and both indoor and outdoor track and field.
In addition to her athletic accolades, Kiser is also a five-time WAC All-Academic honoree and a 2012 USTFCCCA Division I All-Academic Team honoree for cross country. She was voted a Capital One First-Team Academic All-District honoree earlier in the year.
"Hannah is a shining example of what it means to be a student-athlete," Idaho director of athletics Rob Spear said on Thursday. "Her athletic and academic accomplishments set a tremendous example for all of our student-athletes."
Kiser is the second Vandal sophomore to earn Academic All-America status, as women's basketball player Alyssa Charlston was chosen to the Academic All-America Third Team earlier this year. Vandal student-athletes have been honored 24 times as Academic All-Americans since 1970.
Academic All-Americans are selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). Sports information directors in eight national districts vote on the All-District teams. First-Team All-District honorees advance to the national ballot. To be eligible for the honor, student-athletes must have reached sophomore status, both academically and athletically, and hold a minimum 3.30 cumulative GPA.

Whitney Tassie, curator of modern and contemporary art
The Utah Museum of Fine Arts bills itself as the "state museum" of, and Utah's primary connection with, global art. It's quite a mission, but the argument was strengthened this summer when the 60-year-old institution confirmed its commitment to contemporary art with the appointment of Whitney Tassie as curator of modern and contemporary art.
"We feel the role of contemporary art is especially important to university art museums," says UMFA Executive Director Gretchen Dietrich. "The museum is about connecting people to more than art, to all kinds of ideas. Contemporary art is a wonderful way to join the conversation on world issues."
Tassie comes from Chicago, where she was director of the Monique Meloche Gallery for seven years and co-founded the Gallery Weekend Chicago that annually focuses on contemporary art. Before that she was a curatorial assistant at the Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art in Ithaca, N.Y.
Appointing Tassie proves the UMFA's commitment to the direction set over the last five years by former Chief Curator Jill Dawsey, who left Utah for the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego.
Tassie confronts head-on Salt Lake's nagging complex about being a cultural backwater. "It's not entirely untrue," she says of Utah's isolation, but adds, "More and more, we are seeing this trend of mid-sized cities building significant contemporary art collections. You can feel it's a growing contemporary art community here. That's not something you feel in many places in the country."
The UMFA has more than 18,000 works of art in its collection, ranging from Egyptian artifacts to Utah landscapes to Warhols. But it wasn't until the last five years that it began emphasizing cutting-edge contemporary art—an in-your-face genre that includes performance art, video installations and digital works. The UMFA's Salt series twice a year brings in emerging artists from around the globe for a major exhibition. But the museum has no intention of cutting back on its exhibitions of Western art, landscape and other genres, Dietrich says. "Contemporary art helps us see old historic art with new eyes."

Tiger Volleyball Completes Ivy Weekend Sweep With 3-0 Win Over Cornell
Head coach Sabrina King believed in the promise of her young volleyball team heading into the weekend, and the Tigers rewarded that confidence with their best weekend of the Ivy League season. Princeton completed a sweep of its New York rivals with a 3-0 win over Cornell Saturday evening.
Freshman Cara Mattaliano was the Ivy League Rookie of the Week the last time Princeton played both Cornell and Columbia, and she'll be a top candidate for the honor again this weekend. After a brilliant effort Friday night against Columbia, the freshman outside recorded a team-best 19 kills and added six digs in the victory.
The Princeton offense was highly efficient against Cornell, recording 47 kills with only 14 errors and hit .355 in the three-set win. Sophomore Kendall Peterkin had 12 kills and hit .579, while junior middle Nicole Kincade had eight kills, three blocks and hit .500 during the match.
Princeton held off Cornell in a tough first set, claiming it with a kill from Kincade and an attack error for the 27-25 win. Princeton held a two-point edge at 23-21 in the second and finished it with a service error and a service ace from freshman Lauren Miller, who paced the offense with 42 assists. The Tigers carried that momentum through the third set for a 25-13 win.
Princeton will look to build on its two-match win streak when it heads north next weekend for matchups with both Harvard and Dartmouth.

On September 29, the Church celebrates the Feast of the Archangels Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael. Gabriel was the angel who told Mary she would carry the Son of God in her womb. Mary was confused and frightened by this, but Gabriel's message was, "Do not be afraid."
Such is Gabriel's message today to every pregnant mother. "Do not be afraid" to welcome new life, even when it upsets your plans, changes the direction of your life, and requires you to mature in unexpected ways. Do not be afraid if you feel unprepared, or others tell you that you are not ready. If God creates a life in the womb, it's because He is making you ready, and has plans from all eternity for that child and for you.

ZF-4977: SubmitButton labels aren't getting rendered
I upgraded to the release version of 1.7.0 after using the 1.7.0 RC and noticed a bug right away. SubmitButton labels weren't getting rendered.
It seems that something has changed in the way SubmitButtons are handled internally and the SubmitButton view helper needs to be updated. From the perspective of the SubmitButton view helper, the label is now stored in the $attribs['content'] field, not the $params['label'] field nor $value.
I made a change to line 54 in Zend/Dojo/View/Helper/SubmitButton.php that fixes the issue
$params['label'] = array_key_exists('content', $attribs) ? $attribs['content'] : $value;
The array_key_exists test is probably unnecessary since I noticed $attribs['content'] contains the name of the button if there is no label, but I like to pad my code for unforseen errors & future changes :)
Fixed in trunk in r12691, and merged to 1.7 release branch in r12692.
Just want to note...
Using the form element, you have the following workaround available until you are able to upgrade:
$element->setDijitParam("label", );
// or, at creation
$form->addElement('SubmitButton', 'submit', array(
'label' => ,
'dijitParams' => array('label' => ),
In the view helper, specify a label parameter in the dijitParams argument:
$view->submitButton('submit', 'Label', array('label' => 'Label'));
If you specify both, your code will continue to work in the future as well.

Know Your Knees
Submitted by Amy Thompson on
Acupuncture & Common Knee Injuries
by Christina Roy L.Ac, MSOM
How many times have you heard: "I tore my meniscus...blew out my ACL...tore my MCL." What exactly do these terms mean for our knee's health & proper athletic functioning?
MCL / Medial Collateral Ligament
Located on medial side of the knee joint
Controls inner or medial movement of knee; keeps it from collapsing inwardly
Often injured by a hit on outer knee (soccer, football) or skiing
LCL / Lateral Collateral Ligament
On the lateral side of the knee joint
Stabilizes the lateral knee
Often injured by a hit to the inner knee (rugby, football, etc)
ACL / Anterior Collateral Ligament
Located deep within the knee joint
Stabilizes the lower leg by not allowing it to slide forward/anteriorly or to rotate in relation to the Femur
Commonly injured while changing direction or stopping quickly at a run; improper planting or landing of a jump; direct frontal hit to the knee, etc. These are found often in mogul skiing, snowboarding, basketball, tennis, soccer, football, & skateboarding.
The meniscus is a rubbery, C-shaped disc that cushions your knee & helps by distributing your weight across the knee.
Injuries often come while the knee is bent while twisting or turning quickly, but can often happen in very simple domestic chores.
Many times multiple tissues may be injured simultaneously & require medical intervention.
If these ligaments are sprained or stretched they can be treated with Acupuncture & RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation). Typically the ligament will be "bookended" or surrounded on 2 sides by acupuncture needles. While utilizing electrical stimulation, an electric current "flows through or bathes" the ligament, causing a decrease local inflammation & encouraging fresh nutrient rich blood to the area to heal & repair. Tendons & ligaments have minimal blood supply which is why it takes so much longer to heal than injuries to muscle or bone.
If the ligaments are torn then they will probably need surgical intervention to reattach them or even remove tissue, as with the Meniscus. During rehab the same Acupuncture / Electrical Stimulation technique is used along side of PT to maintain optimal blood flow & minimize inflammation. This can benefit the patient in 2 dynamic ways: first by increasing the speed of the recovery; but more importantly, improving the quality of the actual repair & functionality of the knee.

'Candyman' actor lends hand to fundraiser
Published: Thursday, May 2, 2013 at 11:37 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, May 2, 2013 at 11:37 a.m.
Tony Todd, who has played an intimidating figure in scores of TV and film roles, has a soft spot for theater and original works.
Who: Actor Tony Todd
Event 1: Autograph signing with Tony Todd ("Candyman") and Jane McNeill ("The Walking Dead"), 11 a.m.-5 p.m. May 4 at the Browncoat Pub and Theatre, 111 Grace St., Wilmington. $20
Event 2: Dinner with Tony Todd, 7 p.m. May 4 at The Basics, 319 N. Front St., Wilmington. $50
Event 3: Karaoke party with Tony Todd, 10:30 p.m. May 4 at the Browncoat Pub and Theatre, 111 Grace St., Wilmington. $20 in advance, $25 at the door (includes raffle and draft beer)
Details: Call 341-0001 to make reservations. www.BrowncoatTheatre.com
This weekend, the 6-foot-5 actor most recognized from his title role in the 1992 film "Candyman" will be in Wilmington to help raise money for the nonprofit Browncoat Pub and Theatre.
The Browncoat, a 50-seat theater in downtown Wilmington, offers emerging artists an opportunity to present new works to a live audience. The money raised from Todd's appearances will help fund the second half of Browncoat's theater season.
Richard Davis, proprietor of the Browncoat, acknowledges that his company runs on a tight budget.
"I've been called a cheapskate many, many times," Davis said. "Sometimes with a smile, sometimes without a smile."
In operation for six years, the Browncoat is still building sets with lumber from the first show, he said.
Todd has no connection to the Browncoat beyond his passion for grassroots theater and creativity. He does have a connection to Wilmington, though. He played Grange in 1994 movie "The Crow," a film that was a box office success but is possibly best known for the accidental death of actor Brandon Lee during filming. Lee was on the cusp of stardom when he was shot with a real bullet instead of a blank.
"He was full of life, always had a smile on his face," Todd said.
Todd was not on set when Lee died. During their months on set, they spent plenty of down time shooting pool at a local pool hall, Todd said. Those are some of the fond memories of Wilmington that Todd retains.
"I have some great memories," said Todd, whose mother is from Charlotte. "Beautiful people, great food."
The Browncoat fundraiser includes three events – an autograph signing, a dinner, and a karaoke after-party. Todd will graciously sign autographs, and he'll be a charming dinner guest. He will not, however, be the star of the karaoke party, he said.
He was once asked to star on stage in "Man of La Mancha" and spent 48 hours working with a voice coach, but didn't do the show.
"I love music, but carrying a note to the completion of a bridge is not my forte," Todd said. "I have a voice like a frog stepped on by a buffalo."
It's that kind of humor and humility that makes the Candyman so approachable.
"I have an easy time disarming people," said Todd, whose mother used "The Andy Griffith Show" to teach him lessons in behavior and morality.
Todd is squeezing his Wilmington weekend into a busy schedule that includes 12 productions that are in various stages of pre-production, filming or post-production. And that doesn't include his role as Gus Rogan on the long-running soap opera "The Young and the Restless."

- 1/2 teaspoon light corn syrup
- 4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped

Yield: 3 dozen.
Reviews for Truffle Eggs
"Has anyone figured out how to tweak the food color addition? It got confusing with the "white chocolate" issue. I think the problem was the "white candy coating discs" were referred to as chocolate. Is that what the problem is? I'm still wondering.Also, has anyone tried this with chocolate cookie crumbs (like Oreos) instead of coffee granules? I think that's what I will try after there is clarification/editing the food coloring issue. Thanks All!CJ2"
"Tastes delcious, however very runny and took longer than an hour to freeze."
"oh and if you freeze the chocolate it holds up better when you dip it. I didn't even bother with the fridge. I just stuck it in the freezer and it worked great."
"If you increase the chocolate to 6oz and increase the hazelnut spread by 1/2 to 1 oz it sets up better. I also added a little bit of peanut butter and a hand full of crushed granola. It gives a good flavor and consistency. Also, with the candy coating you can find the blue candy melts from Wilton. (I get mine at JoAnns) or you can use gel or liquid coloring. If you want to use the bars and it gets clumpy, try microwaving on a lower power and add some shortening. It makes it smoother and it will give run off a little easier."
"It's a tasty recipe, but I don't know what you need to do for the smooth candy finish in the picture. If the candy coating is too hot, it melts the filling; but if you let it cool the outer coating is thick and uneven."

Halloween is just around the corner, and that means lots of Halloween candy! I love this time of year, as Halloween, as with any candy lover knows, is the best holiday. I've tried hard to find new and exciting Halloween candy to review for the blog, but most of what I've seen has been a re-hash from last year. *sigh* What's a candy blogger to do? Well, thankfully, Peeps has given me something new to review. Behold, the Peeps Milk Chocolate Covered marshmallow Pumpkin!
The pumpkins have a wonderfully festive package. Great use of Halloween colors and shapes and showing the Chocolate Peep pumpkin in all of it's glory. What cool is that when I take the peep out it's shaped just liked the image of the front of the package. You don't see that often.
A pumpkin shaped marshmallow, flat on the back side, with triangular nose and eyes. The milk chocolate smells milky and sweet, and is the real thing according to the ingredients.
My first bite was similar to the chocolate covered Easter Peep back in the spring. I was surprised to find that the interior marshmallow was not the same as the marshmallow used in peeps. It lacks that signature sugar crust we love so much, along with the fact that it's bright orange, unlike traditional Peep's pristine white interior.
These are festive and fun so if you're in the mood for a chocolate covered marshmallow, this is a good bed. If you want a good chocolate covered Peep tho, I recommend you getting a package of the pumpkin ones and hand dipping them at home.

Commission for Global Road Safety
- Date submitted: 28 Oct 2011
- Stakeholder type: Major Group
- Name: Commission for Global Road Safety
- Submission Document: Download
Full SubmissionSafer Roads at Rio+ 20 A submission to the UN Conference on Sustainable Development Summary: Road traffic crashes kill an estimated 1.3 million people a year and injure between 20-50 million more. More than ninety per cent of casualties occur in middle-income and low-income countries; The United Nations has launched the ?Decade of Action for Road Safety 2011-2020?, describing road injury as "major public health problem with a broad range of social and economic consequences which, if unaddressed, may affect the sustainable development of countries and hinder progress towards the Millennium Development Goals"; There is growing recognition that improving road safety can also contribute to achieving the MDGs, particularly in relation to child mortality, access to healthcare (on safe roads), and universal access to education (a million children are killed or seriously injured each year in road crashes, the majority as pedestrians). Unicef has urged that action to prevent injuries in the second decade of a child?s life should become ?a major international health objective?; Addressing road safety will also help to achieve environmental objectives, including action on climate change, particularly through providing a safer road system for users of non-motorised transport, such as pedestrians and cyclists, the most vulnerable road users. Providing safe facilities for non-motorised transport, and encouraging affordable and safe public transport, can reduce demand for modal shift to the car. According to the UN Environment Programme, such policies can make ?a large, lasting impact?on fuel use, congestion, air quality and CO2 emissions? It is also one of the most cost-effective actions for saving hundreds of thousands of lives?; Many developing country governments, and large institutions like the World Bank, are beginning to recognise the need to prioritise road safety in the context of a sustainable transport system. But progress is slow. The gap between an institution acknowledging the issue and achieving sustained action can be bridged if road safety is included within the framework of a major international sustainability conference; The priorities agreed at international fora like Rio+20 set the global agenda and issues that are absent from the agenda are subsequently neglected and under-funded. This is why it is so important that action to improve road safety and promote sustainable modes of transport is included in the agenda and outcomes of the Rio+20 Conference. Safer Roads at Rio + 20 1. The Commission for Global Road Safety is an independent body under the Chairmanship of Lord Robertson of Port Ellen and patronage of HRH Prince Michael of Kent. It was established in 2006 by the FIA Foundation (a UK registered charity) to promote action to reverse the rising tide of road traffic injury and fatality in developing countries. Its ?Make Roads Safe? reports published in 2006 and 2009 called for the first ever global Ministerial Conference, which was subsequently held in Moscow in November 2009, and proposed that the UN mandate a Decade of Action for Road Safety, a proposal which was subsequently approved by the UN General Assembly in March 2010. Amongst the recommendations in the Commission?s third ?Make Roads Safe? report, published in 2011, we call on the international community to recognise road traffic injuries as a sustainability challenge in the context of the Rio+20 Conference and discussions on a post-Millennium Development Goals framework. 2. We welcome Rio+20 as an important opportunity to identify the major sustainability challenges facing the world and to contribute to the design of a post-MDG framework that will meet the needs of developing nations in the second and third decades of the 21st Century. We strongly believe that global road traffic death and injury, and the wider but related issue of safe and sustainable transportation policy, must be recognised as sustainability challenges at the Rio+20 Conference. We urge and encourage the secretariat, member nations and participants to include reference to safe and sustainable road mobility in the ?Outcomes Document? of the Conference. 3. Road safety is perhaps not one of the more obvious subjects for consideration at Rio. Yet the absence of road safety from the agenda of the 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg, and the consequent neglect of the issue in international development fora, has arguably contributed to the growing toll of death and disability on the world?s roads. According to the World Health Organization road crashes kill an estimated 1,300,000 people each year and injure between 20 - 50 million more. The vast majority ? more than ninety per cent - of these casualties are occurring in middle-income and low-income countries where road safety awareness and the capacity to tackle the problem is low, and where both traffic levels and road casualties are rising rapidly (Global Status Report on Road Safety, WHO, 2009). 4. Despite the absence of road safety from the mainstream sustainable development agenda there is now a global mandate for action to reduce global road traffic injuries. UN General Assembly Resolution A/RES/64/255 has established the UN Decade of Action for Road Safety 2011-2020 with a goal to ?stabilise and reduce? road deaths by 2020. Our Commission estimates that if this ambitious goal can be achieved up to 5 million lives and 50 million serious injuries could be prevented over the course of the Decade (?Make Roads Safe: A Decade of Action for Road Safety?, Commission for Global Road Safety, 2009). 5. In its Resolution proclaiming the Decade of Action for Road Safety, the United Nations General Assembly described road traffic injuries as a "major public health problem with a broad range of social and economic consequences which, if unaddressed, may affect the sustainable development of countries and hinder progress towards the Millennium Development Goals". According to leading development experts and international agencies, the impacts of failure to address road safety can go beyond the immediate toll of death and disability to undermine policies on poverty alleviation, child survival and development, and climate change. 6. For example, the Special Adviser to the United Nations on the Millennium Development Goals, Professor Jeffrey Sachs, has recently described road crashes as ?a crucial part of the overall effort? to improve the environment and quality of life in developing countries. In an interview conducted for our Make Roads Safe campaign, Prof. Sachs explained that, in his view, ?the Millennium Development Goals are a broad framework and road safety has to be part of that. When there is so much death, when there is so much injury, when there is so much of a burden on poor communities, alleviating that is part of the overall strategy of fighting poverty, fighting the deaths of children, helping communities to be safe. And so this is part of the Millennium Development Goal effort? (www.makeroadssafe.org). 7. In a report for our Commission, Dr Kevin Watkins, a former development adviser to Oxfam, the UN Development Programme and UNESCO, estimates that, based on a simple calculation of the relationship between GDP growth and poverty reduction, the economic costs associated with road traffic crashes (at least US$100 billion a year in for developing countries) are keeping between 12 ? 72 million people in poverty. Dr Watkins describes road crashes as ?holding back progress towards the international development targets on a global scale?, citing the impact of road injuries on children ? 260,000 of whom are killed and at least 1 million seriously injured each year - and the burden on health services of dealing with road traffic injuries as having a serious impact on delivery of MDG goals 2, for universal primary education, and 4, 5 & , covering child and maternal mortality and public health (The Missing Link: Road Traffic Injuries & the Millennium Development Goals, Watkins, K; 2010). 8. Dr. Watkins? analysis is echoed in the 2011 ?State of the World?s Children? report from the UN Children?s Fund. In the report, which focuses on adolescence, Unicef argues that older children have been neglected as a health priority. ?Lasting change in the lives of children and young people?can only be achieved and sustained by complementing investment in the first decade of life with greater attention and resources applied in the second?, the report concludes. Injury, and in particular road injury, is identified as an area that needs to be addressed. ?Injuries are a growing concern in public health in relation to younger children and adolescents alike. They are the leading cause of death among adolescents aged 10-19?many of these deaths are related to road traffic accidents?, the authors acknowledge. ?Fatalities from injuries among adolescents are highest among the poor?(B)ecause the rate of urbanisation is most rapid in the poorest regions of sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia ? which are also the areas with the greatest share of adolescents in the population ? averting injuries in the second decade of life must become a major international health objective? (State of the World?s Children Report 2011, Unicef). 9. Importantly, in the context of Rio+20, there is growing evidence and recognition that addressing road safety will also help to achieve environmental objectives. In urban areas managing vehicle speed to provide safe and accessible streets for non-motorised transport users, combined with road design measures that protect and encourage walking and cycling (such as pavements, safe crossing points and bicycle lanes), will both reduce casualties amongst ?vulnerable road users? and support greener modes of transport, reducing modal shift to motorised vehicles. Dr Watkins, the author of a major 2008 ?Human Development Report? on climate change for the UNDP, also highlights that transport policy ?can play a central role in combating climate change not just by creating fuel-efficiency incentives and supporting the development of low carbon fuels, but also by supporting the development of safe public transport and creating the conditions for safe non-motorised transport. When safe sidewalks and cycle lanes are available, people are far more likely to undertake trips by walking or cycling?, (The Missing Link: Road Traffic Injuries & the Millennium Development Goals, Watkins, K; 2010). 10. The UN Environment Programme is also urging a change in emphasis in transport planning in developing nations to support and protect non-motorised mobility and to encourage safe and affordable public transport (low income families in developing countries can currently spend up to 25% of their income on public transport), citing the benefits for a range of environmental objectives. UNEP points out that ?cities with a better modal mix between cars, public transport, walking and cycling have lower energy use per capita. By incorporating non-motorised transport facilities in the transport grid, a large, lasting impact can be made on fuel use, congestion, air quality and CO2 emissions?. Furthermore, UNEP argues that ?designating road space for pedestrians and cyclists in proportion to the demand for non-motorised transport is crucial. It is also one of the most cost-effective actions for saving hundreds of thousands of lives. For example, the top two countermeasures for improving safety in Nairobi, Kenya, recommended by the International Road Assessment Programme (iRAP) are pedestrian crossings and sidewalks?, (?Share the Road: Invest in Walking & Cycling?, UN Environment Programme and FIA Foundation, 2011). 11. Despite the projections of significant increases in car use ? with global vehicle ownership doubling in the next ten years, entirely in developing countries - the majority of people in low-income countries or in the significant low-income segments of the population in middle-income countries are unlikely to ever own a car. Yet it is these people who are overwhelmingly affected by road traffic crashes and other consequences of road traffic, including poor air quality (which is estimated to contribute to 800,000 deaths a year). Designing safe transportation, urban planning and land use policies that meet the commuting, social and healthcare needs of this ?green majority? is a pre-requisite for building the ?green economy? of the future and for achieving social justice. 12. This is also increasingly recognised by the World Bank, the largest development agency making transportation loans to developing countries. In its current transport strategy (Safe, Clean, Affordable?transport for development, World Bank, 2008) the Bank highlights the importance of transport policy for achieving many of the Millennium Development Goals, and warns that in ?a world with rising levels of greenhouse gases, poor road safety, and the all too frequent spread of communicable diseases along international routes, transport must be looked at anew?. In particular, the World Bank warns that neglect of road safety must end, urging that ?safety can be made integral to the design and management of the road transport system, just as it is in the management of other transport modes, aviation in particular. However, this concept is not yet accepted in many countries, despite the high economic and human costs of road crashes?. 13. Yet it is a concept that is only now beginning to be adopted in the World Bank?s own country programmes, and the loans of other multilateral development banks (MDBs). Road projects worth hundreds of millions of dollars are still being approved and implemented with totally inadequate safeguard policies relating to injury prevention. Road safety measures are often presented to client countries as an additional project cost, overlooking the long term benefits and financial returns on investment that will flow from reduced levels of road injury. By treating road safety as a ?luxury upgrade? rather than a core ingredient, client countries are discouraged from opting for safe road design. 14. In our 2006 report our Commission highlighted these failings and called on the World Bank to establish a joint taskforce to mainstream road safety assessment into their road infrastructure investments. In response the World Bank?s Global Road Safety Facility did establish such a working group and together with the other MDBs agreed a Joint Statement on ?A Shared Approach to Managing Road Safety? just prior to the First Global Ministerial Conference on Road Safety, hosted by the Russian Federation in Moscow in 2009. The Joint Statement commits the MDBs to ?ensure that safety is integrated in all phases of planning, design, construction, appraisal, operation and maintenance of road infrastructure?particularly to improve safe access and protection for vulnerable road users who represent a significant proportion of the people served by the projects we finance?. Launching the MDB?s Road Safety Initiative, in April 2011, World Bank President Robert Zoellick warned that ?unless well-targeted measures are taken, there will be an escalating death toll on the roads in poor countries, which would be a terrible tragedy?. 15. The Rio+20 Conference can play a critical role in encouraging such action. As we have shown above, there is now a wide recognition that road traffic injuries are a public health and sustainable development challenge that needs to be addressed, and that doing so will benefit the wider agendas of tackling climate change and working towards the Millennium Development Goals. Yet, despite this growing consensus, road safety and wider issues of sustainable mobility remain on the margins of public policy, lacking vocal advocates within government aid agencies and major institutions and consequently denied the resources needed to assist developing nations to improve their institutional capacity, Skills and policies. 16. It is our view that this gap between the growing acknowledgement of the issue and achieving sustained action can be bridged if, for the first time, road safety is included within the framework of a major international sustainability conference. Identifying road traffic injury as a new challenge at the Rio+20 Conference will be invaluable in raising the profile of the issue and helping to institutionalise road safety programmes within middle-income and low-income governments and organisations like the World Bank. As we have seen in the powerful response to climate change and environmental protection following the first Rio summit in 1992, and in the united focus on achieving the Millennium Development Goals that was the major outcome of the Johannesburg Summit in 2002, the priorities agreed at these international fora do set the global agenda and issues that are absent from the agenda are subsequently neglected and under-funded. 17. Until road safety can be integrated into the mainstream of sustainability policy, millions of people will be condemned to unnecessary and preventable violent, painful deaths, or lives blighted by severe disability. This is why it is so important that action to improve road safety and promote sustainable modes of transport is included in the agenda and outcomes of the Rio+20 Conference.

LONDON (AP) — Five Royal Marines have been charged with murder over a death in Afghanistan last year, Britain's Ministry of Defense said Sunday. They are the first British troops to be charged with murder in Afghanistan since deployments began in 2001.
The five are among nine marines arrested — seven on Thursday and two in the last 48 hours. Four have been released without charge.
Officials have said the incident involved an "engagement with an insurgent" in Helmand province, where the majority of Britain's 9,500 troops in Afghanistan are deployed. They say no civilians were involved.
The Ministry of Defense said the cases had been referred to the Service Prosecuting Authority, which oversees military trials. The ministry said the suspects, who have not been named, were in custody.
The brigade believed to be involved in the incident, 3 Commando, was in the thick of the fighting with Taliban insurgents during its deployment last year to Helmand, which lies in Afghanistan's south.
British troops operate under rules of engagement, largely derived from the Geneva Convention, that dictate under what circumstances they are allowed to open fire.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by ladybugwest Fabulous in a Napa setting I ordered this in the 40" x 40" size. It's filling a wall in a wine country, cottage and it's quite dazzling in it's appropriateness. The colors are as shown on the website. The art is hanging on a HGTV SW blue wall and it looks great - but would look just as brilliant against white one of the colors depicted. The artist has created a fabulous piece of art that's beautiful as well as affordable! It doesn't get any better than that! March 24, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by sammie2 fun, colorful This is one of my favorite pieces to look at. It is fun, vibrant, and stirs up nostalgia for places you've traveled to and the experiences you had there. I am looking forward to purchasing another print by this artist in the near future. February 3, 2013
