Scholars Discuss Israel, Iran and the Bomb
SIS's International Politics program and the AU Center for Israel Studies co-sponsored the forum discussion "Israel, Iran and the Bomb" on Nov. 12.
The panel was moderated by Dean James Goldgeier. Participating experts included Trita Parsi, president of the National Iranian American Council; Natan Sachs, foreign policy fellow at The Brookings Institution's Saban Center for Middle East Policy; Michael Singh, managing director of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy; and SIS Professor Sharon Weiner.
Most experts agree that Iran is in the beginning phases of nuclear capability. "U.S. intelligence officials are confident that Iran has no nuclear weapons program," said Parsi. "The regime has failed people – it could be more advanced and free than it currently is. Political repression has held them back."
In response to Goldgeier's inquiry about how worried everyone should be about Iran, Weiner explained that nuclear energy and weapons programs are very similar in the first stages. "It all comes down to intent," she said.
While countries can only speculate as to the state of Iran's nuclear capabilities, Sachs said, "there's no doubt that a nuclear Iran would be terrible for the world and for Israel."
Parsi said that a nuclear Iran would, ironically, weaken the country's advantage. "If Iran builds a weapon, there is a risk of regional proliferation. Then Iran would lose its strategic advantage and strategic parity would occur."
Still, Singh said, Iran is a long way from having a functional nuclear weapon, which reduces the chance that President Barack Obama will decide to strike the country.
"Iran must weaponize the fuel and have a missile – a way to deliver it," Singh said. "Iran's challenge is – how do they get from where they are now to a weapon without provoking a strike? We don't want to take a position unless we absolutely have to. The U.S. and Israel want to avoid strikes if possible."

Introduction to Psychodrama: Engaging Right and Left Hemispheres of the Brain
6 CEUs
$125 (see Registration Information for discount information)
Recent research and development in neuroscience shows that action oriented therapeutic modalities that engage both the right and left hemispheres of brain function provide the most effective healing and growth in clients. Psychodrama is the use of action techniques used to explore an individual's affect, behavior, cognition and spirituality. Psychodramatic interventions are strength-based and designed to encounter people where they are, whatever their functioning level. Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to: 1) use basic psychodramatic action method skills for individual and group assessment, intervention and evaluation; 2) comprehend psychodramatic theory and basic techniques used to increase spontaneity and creativity; and 3) use the psychodramatic format of warm-up, enactment and sharing. Diversity is integral to all aspects of psychodramatic process. The warm up, situations and enactments, and the processing of enactments all come from workshop participants. The purpose of the role-reversal technique is to expand tolerance for diversity. This workshop will be primarily interactive with a didactic component. Psychodrama may be used to practice new behaviors, to gain insight or integration, and to facilitate catharsis. This training is appropriate for all levels of practitioners in direct practice, group, and individual therapy settings, as well as administrators, supervisors and trainers.
Deborah Karner, MSS, LSW, is a D&A and mental health therapist and psychodramatist currently working with co-occurring clients at Crozer Recovery Center in Chester PA. Deborah has been using psychodrama in various settings for the past ten years.
David Moran, CAC, LCSW, CP, TEP, is President of the American Association of Group Psychotherapy and Psychodrama. David is a certified Trainer, Educator and Practitioner of psychodrama. He is Director of the Crozer Chester Medical Center Substance Abuse Programs
Introduction to Motivational Interviewing
6 CEUs
$125 (see Registration Information for discount information)
Motivational Interviewing is an evidence-based and person-centered counseling technique for eliciting and supporting behavioral change. As our systems of care become increasingly Recovery oriented, practitioners need tools for eliciting individuals' involvement in planning and implementing their own Recovery strategies. Motivational Interviewing is one such tool. As a client-centered and -driven technique, Motivational Interviewing is in some ways inherently inclusive of diverse cultures and belief systems. Teaching examples include discussion of counselor biases and the potential impact of these on the behavioral change process. Using a combination of lecture, discussion, role play and video examples, this seminar provides participants with some of the building blocks of Motivational Interviewing for use in their service practice. Upon completion of this course, participants have: 1) learned Stages of Change and interventions appropriate at each stage; (2) become familiar with the spirit and core principles of Motivational Interviewing; (3) use of at least three component techniques of Motivational Interviewing; (4) learned specific strategies for responding to resistance. This seminar is appropriate for all levels of post-master's degreed practitioners in clinical settings such as case management, health care, homeless services, corrections, and other direct services.
Karen Escovitz, MSS, is a training specialist and project coordinator at BHTEN (Behavioral Health Training and Education Network). She has provided training and technical assistance in evidence-based practices and recovery-oriented services to providers and other stakeholders in behavioral health and supported employment for the past 15 years

Penn State Holds Off Tiger Volleyball Rally, Returns To EIVA Championship
The fight was there, but it was not enough. Playing without starting middle Will Siroky, Princeton could not end Penn State's dominance in the EIVA postseason and fell 3-0 to conclude its 2013 season.
Top-seeded Penn State advanced to the EIVA final with a 25-20, 25-17, 25-23 victory over fourth-seeded Princeton. While the Nittany Lions will compete for their 15th straight EIVA championship, Princeton ended its season with a 13-10 record.
The Tigers did not go down without a fight, though. Trailing 2-0 and 17-13 in the third set, Princeton ran off six straight points, including three straight on kills by EIVA points leader Pat Schwagler. A triple block by Schwagler, Cody Kessel and Brad Howard gave Princeton a 19-17 advantage, but Penn State pushed back with three straight points.
"I was proud of the fight we showed tonight, but Penn State earned the win," head coach Sam Shweisky said. "Our guys are hurting right now, but I know the character in this program, and we will come back stronger from this moment."
The teams would side out until Aaron Russell gave Penn State a 24-23 lead with his final of 21 kills. Russell, who hit .704 for the match and added 12 digs, finished the match with a service ace to send Penn State to a Saturday night final against Harvard, which knocked off second-seeded George Mason in a five-set thriller.
Princeton was led by Schwagler, who had 10 kills without an error and hit .500 for the match. Both Kessel and freshman outside Devin Stearns were both effective as well; Stearns had eight kills without an error (.381), while Kessel had six kills and hit .357. Senior Michael Dye, in his final collegiate match, added four kills.
Junior setter Davis Waddell had 28 assists and helped Princeton hit .342, but offense wasn't the issue for Princeton. The Tigers had no answer for the duo of Russell (21-2-27-.704) and Nick Goodell (14-2-28-.429), who combined to record more kills (35) than the entire Princeton squad (32).

There are two ways to install a scanner in this version of Windows. The method you choose depends on whether you want to connect the scanner directly to your computer (called a local scanner), or use a scanner that's shared on a network.
Most scanners sold today connect to your computer with a universal serial bus (USB) cable. But don't plug it in yet! Some scanners require you to install driver software before connecting the USB cable, so always follow the setup instructions that came with your device.
If your USB scanner didn't come with specific setup instructions, plug it in to your computer and Windows should automatically install it. If it's an older model, you might have to install it manually. For instructions, see Working with the Scanner and Camera Installation wizard.
Network scanners are typically found in the workplace. Before you begin, it's helpful to know the scanner model and manufacturer name.
Open Network by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type network, and then, under Network and Sharing Center, click View network computers and devices.
Locate the scanner, right-click it, and then click Install.
Follow the instructions to finish adding the scanner.
This procedure works only with network scanners that support the Microsoft Scan Service (WS-Scan) protocol. For more information, check the information that came with the device or contact your system administrator for help.

Retiring Numbers & Twins HOF '12
Two comments on "Twins Legacy" happenings upcoming in 2012…
1. Tom Kelly's #10 will be retired by the Twins:
Though many of my fellow Twins fans don't agree with this decision, I have no problem with #10 being "taken off the books" in honor of Kelly. Why, then, should a manager with a losing record be given such an honor?
Well, first of all, he just happened to preside over the worst talent drought (1993-2000) in franchise history, when the team gave him (financially-speaking) absolutely no chance to win. Thus, all those losing seasons seriously tarnished his record.
When I think of TK, though, I think of the stability and (more importantly) respectability he brought to the Twins' organization. There was no "Twins way" (pitching, defense, fundamentals, etc.) before Mr. Kelly took the reigns. Both during and since his tenure, however, the Twins have developed into a model baseball organization from the bottom up (with a few hiccups along the way, of course).
Thus, I am happy to see TK given the ultimate honor in the Twins organization.
2. Camilo Pascual was voted into the Twins Hall of Fame (seen here in Senators dress)…
Camilo spent all but the tail end of his career with the Senators/Twins. His curveball is compared to Bert Blyleven's by old-timers, he racked up impressive strikeout totals for his day, and (during his prime) routinely completed half of the games he started.
Camilo also had that " ace" persona about him, where he was the guy you wanted to have the ball in the big games.
I never got to see Camilo pitch, obviously, but I've "heard/read" enough to convince me that he belongs in the Twins' HOF.

Hematopoiesis is an important biological process in which small numbers of self-renewing hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) generate large numbers of mature blood cells of multiple distinct lineages. This orderly process is regulated by signal transduction cascades mediated by cytokines and their receptors, and requires appropriate balance of cell proliferation, differentiation, adhesion, migration, survival and death. Abnormal regulation of this process can cause myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or leukemia. Understanding the signaling pathways that regulate the normal hematopoiesis, and determining how these signaling pathways are deranged in diseases is important for the rational development of new therapies for blood diseases.
Many hematopoietic signaling pathways are controlled by protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) and protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). JAK2, a member of the Janus family of non-receptor PTKs, is activated in response to a variety of cytokines. A Somatic mutation (V617F) in JAK2 has been found in a majority of patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) including 95% cases of polycythemia vera (PV) and 50-60% cases of essential thrombocythemia (ET) and primary myelofibrosis (PMF). The long-term goals of my laboratory are to elucidate the role of the JAK/STAT pathway in normal hematopoiesis and hematologic diseases. We are using molecular and cell biology, genetic and biochemical approaches to accomplish these goals. We have generated tissue-specific knock-out and knock-in mice models to define the role of the JAK/STAT pathway in the maintenance and function of hematopoietic stem cells and in the pathogenesis of myeloid neoplasms/leukemias. We are also using these mice models to test novel therapies for myeloid neoplasms/leukemias.

When master of ceremonies and actor Leslie Jordan hit the stage in a wig doing his best Caroline Rhea impersonation, you knew it was going to be a fun night. When he recounted his story of being permanently tossed out of the Village Station, he had the crowd laughing uproariously. Followed by the keynote speaker, actress Meredith Baxter, and honorees Geoffrey Henning (accepting a Media Award for JCPenney), fruit-of-Cher's-womb Chaz Bono and, last but not least, community activist Lucilo Peña, dinner was a veritable who's who of community makers and shakers. Plus, we could listen to Jordan tell "back in the day" stories all day. Photography by Maria Olivas and Doc Strange

June 10, 2013, 7:00 p.m.
At Location: Stockton City Council Chambers, 425 N. El Dorado Street Stockton, CA 95202
Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) is requesting in its 2014 General Rate Case (GRC), a total increase of $1.282 billion in annual revenue for gas and electric service, effective January 1, 2014.
PG&E's proposal would increase the monthly electric bill for typical residential customers using 550 kilowatt hours per month by $4.61— or 5.2 percent—from $89.36 to $93.97. The monthly gas bill for typical residential gas customers using 37 therms per month would increase by $7.06 or—15.3 percent—from $46.13 to $53.18.
Information about this GRC is outlined in this notice. Also included is the Public Participation Hearing (PPH) schedule which identifies the dates, times, and locations of the hearings.
The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) will hold a series of PPHs in May and June 2013 at various locations throughout PG&E's service area. At each location, customer service representatives from PG&E and consumer affairs representatives from the CPUC will be present to assist with individual customer billing and service concerns. These hearings will be your opportunity to express your views. The PPHs will be facilitated by an Administrative Law Judge and oral comments will be accepted from the public. The CPUC will consider public comments and include them as part of the formal record in the GRC proceeding.
All locations are wheelchair accessible. If you need a language interpreter or need a device to help you better hear the proceedings, please contact the CPUC's Public Advisor's Office (PAO) at the address listed below at least five days in advance of the hearing date (contact information for the CPUC's PAO below).
On November 15, 2012, PG&E filed its 2014 GRC application (A.12-11-009) with the CPUC. Every three years, PG&E is required to file a GRC in which the CPUC sets annual revenue levels. PG&E will use this revenue to generate electricity, to purchase gas and electricity and to distribute electricity and gas to PG&E's customers. PG&E sent a notice of this application to all customers, beginning in December 2012.
During the first phase of the GRC (GRC Phase I), the CPUC will determine the total amount of money PG&E may collect in rates. In the second phase of the GRC (GRC Phase II), the CPUC will determine how the total amount of money will be allocated among different classes of customers and how customer rates will be designed (that is, how much it will cost customers to buy gas and electricity). The GRC Phase II application will be filed in April 2013. Once it is filed, PG&E will send out a summary of that application in a separate bill insert.
The proposed increase consists of the following:
• An increase in electric revenues of $796 million over the currently authorized level for 2014. The increase is made up of the costs of (1) delivering electricity to PG&E's customers ($587 million); and (2) operating and maintaining PG&E's power plants ($209 million). This increase does not include the cost of electricity procured for PG&E's customers or the cost of fuel used in generating electricity by PG&E, which are recovered in a separate proceeding; and
• An increase in gas revenues of $486 million over the currently authorized level for 2014. The increase does not include gas procured for PG&E's customers, which is recovered in a separate proceeding.
The CPUC's PAO will be present at all meetings to provide assistance. If you would like more information on how to participate at these hearings, or if you would like to submit written comments about PG&E's 2014 GRC Phase I application, please call or write the PAO at the address shown below. When writing, include the application number as a reference.

E-mail: email@example.com
On April 18, 2013, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) filed the application in the second phase of our 2014 General Rate Case (GRC Phase II) with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). In this application, we are requesting approval from the CPUC to allocate our approved revenue—that is, the amount that the CPUC has authorized for PG&E to collect in rates to operate our utility business—across different customer classes and to design electric rates for these classes. We are proposing this in order to better align our rates with the costs of providing electric service to our customers, and to simplify rates to make them easier to understand.
Will Rates Increase as a Result of this Application?
Approval of this application will decrease rates for some customers and increase rates for others. Our GRC Phase II application does not propose any increases in annual revenues, but rather seeks to distribute our approved revenue across different customer groups. The actual rate increases or decreases will depend on the CPUC's final decision in this application, and will go into effect as early as mid-2014.
Rate and Bill Impacts for Bundled Customers
Most of our customers are bundled customers meaning that we provide electricity (generation), transmission and distribution service. The table below shows the proposed allocation of revenue (the total dollars collected through rates from our customers) and the percentage change, by customer group.
The table below shows the projected impact on monthly bills for bundled customers on the standard residential rate (E-1) who live in the climate zone labeled as Baseline Territory X. The projected impact for customers taking service on the California Alternate Rates for Energy (CARE) Program is also listed below.
Rate and Bill Impacts for DA/CCA Customers
Direct Access (DA) and Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) customers receive only transmission and distribution service from PG&E but purchase electricity (generation) from other suppliers. We charge DA/CCA customers the same distribution and Public Purpose Program (PPP) rates as we do bundled customers. The projected electric rate changes for DA/CCA customers by customer group are illustrated in the table below.
Departing Load (DL) customers do not receive generation, transmission or distribution from PG&E but will be affected by our application because they are required to pay the PPP rate. We charge DL customers the same PPP rate as we do bundled and DA/CCA customers. Total DL revenue will be reduced because of a reduction in PPP rates by about $2.6 million or 6.1 percent.
If you have questions regarding the GRC Phase II application or for more details, please contact PG&E at 1-800-743-5000. For TDD/TTY (speech-hearing impaired), call 1-800-652-4712.

A copy of PG&E's 2014 GRC Phase II application and exhibits is also available for review at the CPUC, 505 Van Ness Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94102, Monday–Friday, 8 a.m.–noon. A copy of the application (without exhibits) is available on the CPUC's website at www.cpuc.ca.gov/puc
The CPUC's Division of Ratepayer Advocates (DRA) will review this application. The DRA is an independent arm of the CPUC, created by the Legislature, to represent the interests of utility customers throughout the state and obtain the lowest possible rate for service consistent with safe and reliable service levels. DRA has a multi-disciplinary staff with expertise in economics, finance, accounting, engineering and rate design. The DRA's views do not necessarily reflect those of the CPUC. Other parties of record, such as those representing various customer groups, will also participate.
Evidentiary Hearings
The CPUC will schedule Evidentiary Hearings (EHs) for the GRC Phase II, where parties of record present their proposals in testimony and are subject to cross-examination before the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ). These hearings are open to the public, but only those who are formal parties of record can present evidence or cross-examine witnesses during EHs. Members of the public may attend, but are not allowed to participate in the hearings, Public Participation hearings are already being held in Phase I of PG&E's GRC (A.12-11-009). Notification of those public participation hearings was already sent to you either by a separate mailing or included as a bill insert in your monthly bill. Customers may also submit written comments to the CPUC at the address listed on the back. All such correspondence to the CPUC should reference PG&E's 2014 GRC Phase II Application (A.13-04-012).
After considering all proposals and evidence presented during the hearing process, the ALJ will issue a draft decision. When the CPUC acts on the application, it may adopt all or part of PG&E's request, amend or modify it, or deny the application. The CPUC's final decision may be different from the ALJ's draft decision.

|Track and field shines at UW Invitational
SEATTLE - It's becoming a redundant storyline for the Idaho track and field team, but the men's pole vault record fell again and Vandal athletes put up impressive numbers against solid competition at the Washington Invitational on Saturday.
Senior Lucas Pope, who just last week became the first indoor vaulter in Idaho history to clear 17 feet, achieved the feat again, then went a little higher for good measure. Pope won the competition by clearing 5.37m (17-5.5) on his second attempt.
Sophomore Jeremy Klas also broke into the 17-foot club on Saturday, as he cleared a career-best 5.22m (17-1.5) and tied for second place in the competition. That mark makes him the second NCAA provisional qualifier for the men's team this year, along with Pope.
A pair of international Vandals - both German - got things done for Idaho on the track. Junior Paul Dittmer won the men's 60m hurdles with a time of 7.97, while sophomore Markus Geiger ran a career-best 14:48.51 in the men's 5,000m to finish fourth overall and second among collegiate runners.
Junior Eugenio Mannucci put together the WAC's top men's shot put performance to date, as he launched the shot 17.39m (57-0.75) and finished fifth. That throw is the best in the conference by a little more than a foot.
Senior K.C. Dahlgren took sixth in the women's pole vault, as she cleared 3.87m (12-8.25), while senior Beau Whitney threw the men's 35-pound weight 17.84m (58-6.5) and also took sixth. On the track, senior Sam Michener ran a 6.90 preliminary time, then ran a 6.94 in the final round for a fifth-place finish in the 60m dash.
Five Idaho athletes competed in the multi-event portion of the meet and all of them did so for the second straight week. Seniors Darcy Collins and Lindsey Goodman and sophomore Ellen Rouse competed in the five-event women's pentathlon, while junior Andrew Blaser and sophomore Ryan Bowen competed in the seven-event men's heptathlon.
Collins took seventh overall with a score of 3,341, while Goodman was 11th (3,263) and Rouse was 13th (3,206). On the men's side, Blaser took 10th with a score of 4,873, while Bowen did not finish.
Idaho's teams will be in action again on Friday and Saturday in their first home meets of the year. First up will be the 35th Annual Vandal Indoor on Friday evening, followed by the Runner's Soul Open Saturday morning.

ZF-8222: isDispatchable does not formatClassName for class_exists - neccessary for when prefixDefaultModule is true
{quote} class Zend_Controller_Dispatcher_Standard { public function isDispatchable(Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract $request) { $className = $this->getControllerClass($request); if (!$className) { return false; }
if (class_exists($className, false)) {
return true;
When prefixDefaultModule is true, $className needs to be formatted via formatClassName otherwise the module name is not prefixed and so the class will not exist - which for example when forwarding to another action causes Zend_Loader::isReadable to always be executed.
Alternative code {quote} class Zend_Controller_Dispatcher_Standard { public function isDispatchable(Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract $request) { $className = $this->getControllerClass($request); if (!$className) { return false; }
$class = $this->getParam('prefixDefaultModule')
? ucfirst($this->formatClassName($this->_curModule, $className))
: $className;
if (class_exists($class, false)) {
return true;
I can definitely confirm this issue.
One way to illustrate the problem is to set prefixDefaultModule to true and simply define a controller class for your default module somewhere (prefix it with the module name since we've set prefixDefaultModule) and give it a default action. Make sure you put the controller file somewhere not typical (so it cannot be autoloaded), and just require_once() it in yourself. Then try requesting that controller, and you'll get a invalid controller exception.
Also, Devosc's fix works great to mitigate this issue, without any adverse effects either.
See the attached patch which includes a fix, as well as a unit test with assertions to prove the issue. Patch is in GIT format, so you may have to use git-apply. Also, it is relative from /framework/standard/trunk.
Also, note that my patch is not the same fix as devosc has proposed. Upon looking closer, his fix does not completely solve the underlying issue, as his will only solve the issue for the default module, but any other modules will still experience the issue. The unit test I wrote above illustrates this, as simply running formatClassName() if the prefixDefaultModule parameter is true will not pass the test. You have to also say "or if the requested module is not the default module", since all controllers for non-default modules must have a prefix.
Perhaps a more accurate title for this issue might be: "isDispatchable does not formatClassName for class_exists - necessary for when prefixDefaultModule is true OR the request is for a non-default module"
Patch reviewed and applied to trunk and 1.10 release branch -- thanks!

Thanks to Cam Spiers (who has produced an interesting selection of free javascript Bayesian Calculators), I have updated my own Bayesian Calculator page using the most basic of those. This might be updated again in coming months. Right now it only allows running calculations with two-digit probabilities from .01 to .99 (or 1% and 99%), so you can't use it for odds outside that range (for example, you can't see what happens when the prior is 1 in 1,000 or 1 in 1,000,000 or when a consequent is even closer to 100% than 99%). But future versions of the page might have those features.
For people new to the whole idea of Bayes' Theorem and Bayesian reasoning, you should first check out my talk at Skepticon last year: Bayes' Theorem: Lust for Glory! For a more thorough treatment (using historical reasoning as a running example), which is also aimed as much as possible at lay readers, there is now of course my book: Proving History: Bayes's Theorem and the Quest for the Historical Jesus.

ZF-12186: Zend_Text_MultiByte::strPad() Warning on Input Longer Than Pad Length
Zend_Text_MultiByte::strPad() gives a warning when pad_length is negative or less than input string. Results in a warning "str_repeat(): Second argument has to be greater than or equal to 0" and returns the input string.
Return value is as expected but should not give a warning.
From str_pad() doc page: "If the value of pad_length is negative, less than, or equal to the length of the input string, no padding takes place."

Rated 5 out of 5 by MommyMD Great Quality I love it! This is really well made, sturdy and still very beautiful. The coloring is really rich and estate-like. I would highly recommend this item. May 27, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by lvsquality Great bronze house number sign! I looked online for a wonderful house-number plaque; and Frontgate had the best looking ones. Although all of them are pretty, the design of this one went well with our newly remodeled house. It looks exactly like the photograph; perhaps even better in person. The bronze toned finish looks fabulous. It's easy to see from our street. Very elegant, very classy, very satisfied! Don't hesitate to order! June 14, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by hoytgirl Lovely Plaque! This plaque is very elegant, and just the size and color I imagined! The only reason I didn't give it a five-star is that while the two digit number on the first row is very easy to read, (most important!) the eleven letter street name is not as clear in this color choice, probably because of the number of letters. It was easy to assemble and seems sturdy, and we're very happy with our purchase. January 7, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Chucky3906 Exactly what I ordered Love the sign, it looks great and durable. Wish they offered sign with number and lettering on both sides. May 29, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by LNRW So disappointed This is a street sign I have ordered before and loved. However, the current one arrived with the bottom screw holes far to close to the trim to be able to attach the legs as intended. Returning it would be costly due to it's weight and inconvenient because I needed it. Very disappointing. It makes me reconsider purchases for a home we have just purchased. May 8, 2015

Paul Simon has evangelized on the street and in prisons, jails, drug centers, youth organizations, hospitals, retirement centers and in Mexico. Since 1984, he has served as pastor of The Upper Room Fellowship in La Junta, with the able help of his wife, Gloria. For the past 25 years, they have been affiliated with Open Bible Churches, which recently presented him with a plaque commemorating his service. The presentation was made at the National Open Bible Convention in Colorado Springs. The Simons first started their ministry in 1976. They held services in their home from 1976 through 1983. Their attendance was up to 137, so in 1984, the Simons bought the old original Mennonite Church at 722 Santa Fe Ave. "They wanted the church to go to a hispanic congregation," said Simon. "Our congregation is mostly hispanic, but very few speak Spanish any more. We just have services in English." The Upper Room Fellowship joined with the Open Bible Churches in 1988. Paul and Gloria Simon have been married for 53 years. Gloria helps with the worship services and plays the guitar. The church has three musical groups, and she is in two of them. The other group features keyboard. Simon also serves at a Lathrop Youth Camp near Walsenburg and goes to Bent County Correctional Facility every third Sunday. He was named Volunteer of the Year in 2012 at the Bent County Correctional Facility. He also received the Pete Spackman Award for his prison work. The couple has been in the ministry for 37 years. They are elected to serve their church ever five years, but this year he asked for only three years because they may decide to retire. This is the Upper Room Fellowship schedule: Sunday 9:30 Bible Study 10:30 Worship Service; 11 a.m. Sermon Tuesday 7 p.m. Bible Study.

Reviews for Makeover Chocolate Mint Layer Cake
"The cake is good. Added more mint extract to filling and icing. Used different icing, cause is a little strange."
"This cake was delicious and pleased my daughter who doesn't like most chocolate desserts, but likes chocolate mint. I found it difficult to frost the sides with the mint filling. Maybe I would not spread the filling to the edges next time. I also didn't have enough frosting to cover the sides. I thought it was pretty to be able to see the mint layer and didn't want to add calories, so I left it."
"Delicious - one of the easiest layer cakes ive ever made."
"I didn't have any mint, so I made this with orange extract. The combination of chocolate and orange was a huge hit with my family. I thought the frosting was delicious and the perfect consistency and amount. This was delicious!"
"It may have been the extract I used but I ended up adding creme de menthe to add more flavor to the filling. Everything else was great!"

Rated 5 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Christy11 Glad to get my hands on it I saw this quilt in my local World Market store and felt it looked perfect for a summer quilt. I love that it is cotton because I have decided polyester is too warm for me. When I came in during a sale the quilts were all gone which led me to think they were being discontinued. BUMMER. I found the shams on sale and used my %10 coupon - nice deal. I then found the quilt on line and got, it after shipping and all for less than it was originally in the store. The quilt arrived soon and was in brand new wrapped condition and looks gorgeous. It will beautifully compliment my bedroom. Not sure of the "comfort" factor yet as I won't be using it till the weather gets warmer, but I think it will be great! April 4, 2013

billgrr, do you get paid for your position of angst against this one former president? Hope it's worth it for you.
Cuts are OK, as long as they're across the board for every gov't dept. And the cuts will have to be approved by Congress, just like many liberals have told us before, while castigating the House of Representatives. We'll just see if any of these proposed "cuts" make it.
Now what I really don't like is that a "cut" in DC speak is only a reduction in an automatic budget increase. In my household, a "cut" means a budget item has to disappear, because there are no more funds to accommodate the program any longer. Automatic budget increases? Get real.

Taxing the rich will not be enough to balance our budgets (that's if the U.S. had a budget - none in the last 4 years) without performance audits and cutting govt. waste. There will be a tipping point in our society when class warfare of rich vs. poor will limit motivations and investment. Look to France's 75% tax on the rich as a poster child of what not to do: the very well off are beginning to feel used and abused and are moving out of the country. States, counties and cities are closer to bankruptcy and many are in the process because of mismanagement and overspending. Rainy day funds are a thing of the past and the population wants more and more from the government. 47 million of our people are on food stamps, 14 million are on disability and personal income levels are down for the last 8 years. Inflation is rising and this week the government wants to use a new method to rank inflation to further limit increases in Social Security checks to the elderly. And this is before Oba

Randy and I met in our forties, so the first wife got the full head of hair. By the time I showed up, his crop was on the drop. Not that he noticed. Randy's an optimist, a scalp-is-half-full kinda guy. I couldn't bring myself to say, "Hey, buddy, we're losing ground here," or recommend that it was time to bust out the Norelco (given my beloved's long face and high forehead, I felt as if I'd be having sex with Homer Simpson)
So I'd casually point out men with thick manes, saying things like "I bet that guy uses Rogaine. I hear it really works." For more than a year, my comments fell on deaf ears and thinning scalp. Until the day Randy came home from his barber and said, "Sharky suggested I use Rogaine. I think I'll do that.
Huh? What? That's all it took? One lousy mano-a-mano moment? But Sharky, bless his snipping soul, spoke up just in time. Sex with Homer is on hold. Maybe I can get Sharky to work on Randy's sandal collection next.

According to veteran head coach Chris Arno, it's been some seven years since the Lady Reds brought home a trophy from a cross country meet.
That all changed Saturday morning at sun-splashed Fleming Field at the inaugural Shadyside Cross Country Invitational, which included a demanding course that ran through Hillview Park.

The Lady Big Reds flexed their youthful muscle by packing all five of their scoring runners into the top 12 overall en route to a total of 23 points, which was nine fewer than runner-up Shadyside.
"It's early in the season, but we put in a good summer (of training) and I am really proud of their efforts today," Arno said. "This is a good group of girls. We worked hard up front and our entire top seven ran well."
Leading the way for the Lady Big Reds was talented freshman Taylor Stoner, who was running in just her second varsity meet.
Stoner toured the grounds around Fleming Field in a solid 22:02, which was 42 seconds ahead of teammate and runner-up Shaye Beckett.
"It was a pretty rough race," Stoner said. "I've been having some problems with my knees, and they were hurting, but you just have to fight through it."
Stoner assumed control just a mile into the race. She took the lead and basically never looked back.
"The course was tough," Stoner admitted. "The hills were very steep and it's long because it repeats itself. I feel really good about winning. I'm just going to keep trying to get better."
Along with Stoner and Beckett, the balance of the Lady Big Reds' scoring came from junior Danielle Stoner (fourth, 22:56), Rilie Purtiman (sixth, 23:56) and Dallas Messenger (12th, 26:34).
"It's a long, grueling season, but we're hoping to remain consistent and keep improving," Arno said. "We hope to stay injury free. We use these meets as building steps for the meets down the road, which we really key on. There are a lot of good teams and programs in the OVAC, so it's going to be an enjoyable season."
The Lady Tigers, who are also extremely young, put forth a solid effort en route to the runner-up trophy.
Madison Miller led the Orange attack with a bronze-medal finish in a time of 22:49. McKayla Kinemond was fifth overall in 23:17. Frosh Alexa Coggins was seventh in 24:07, while Ashley Visnic finished ninth in 25:47 and Logen Johnson rounded out the top 10 with a time of 26:09.
"I thought the meet went really well," said Shadyside head coach and meet director Stu Rynkievich. "We couldn't have asked for a better day weather-wise and we heard a lot of positive comments. We knew the course was going to be challenging, but everyone just fought through it and kept their heads up. We're definitely going to make this (meet) an annual event."
On the boys' side, Indian Creek ran away with the team title, posting a low score of 19 points. Harrison Central finished a distant second with 63 tallies.
Redskins' sophomore Allen Kaster won the championship with a time of 19:08, while teammate Kyle Weaver was second in 19:34 and Tyler Gaydosh was third in 19:34.
Barnesville's Mason Moore was fourth overall in 19:36, while Shadyside's Josh Kahl was fifth in 19:46.
Bellaire's Luc Messenger was seventh (20:43), Harrison Central's Rod Cowans was ninth (21:18) and Buckeye Local's Ryan Lewton was 10th (21:26).
