BTN School Days: Illinois Fighting Illini
When it comes to the 2011-12 athletic year for Illinois, many people will remember it for all of the transition. Football coach Ron Zook, men's basketball coach Bruce Weber and women's basketball coach Jolette Law all coached their last games and gave way to Tim Beckman, John Groce and Matt Bollant, respectively. But it also was a successful year, one highlighted by the men's gymnastics team's 10th NCAA title and first since 1989. The coach of the team, Justin Spring, 29, became the youngest gymanstics coach to win the national crown.

Why Invest in R&D?
By marchamilton on Dec 02, 2008
Today's supercomputers like the Sun Constellation System at TACC play a critical role in supporting basic research that will lead to future advances across a wide range of fields. Here is a great five minute video on the importance of R&D to the US military, although the technologies certainly all have had great impact on civilian life as well.

"We're not going to live forever" is an all too common mantra for parents of children who have autism. Sadly, it is not an original thought, but one that is multiplying every eleven minutes, as another child is diagnosed with this complex and often devastating disorder.
A glimpse at the next ten years forecasts a half a million adults who will be in need of housing and community support. Currently, seventy per cent of children with autism, still live with their parents. What does happen when their parents are no longer capable of supporting them?
Autism Speaks has made its mission, to change the conversation, implore society to join in the efforts, be proactive, and spawn creative partnerships that will change the future for individuals living with autism. It is with this in mind that Autism Speaks recently released a short film that exemplifies the vital need for services, while covering the span of the autism spectrum disability.
Experts in the field, point out that the United States devotes a significant amount of dollars into educating children who have autism, but systematically pull the plug when the child reaches twenty one. It is not a conscious effort to be cruel, it is a fiscal plug. The funding stops, just when it is most needed. Vincent Strully, Jr. Founder and CEO of The New England Center for Autism points out that when that plug is pulled, "we see regression in all kinds of areas". He fervently believes investing in individuals while they are young and serve them on a minimal basis, is much less expensive than serving them later years in custodial care. The cost for society would be greater.
There is no one- size –fits- all program or a perfect plan. Investigation is tedious, and frightening. However, the collective cry that parents share is articulated: "if he could just find a place to live that's safe"…." I have been contemplating what happens when the school bus stops coming, almost from the day it arrived"…."
Given dwindling government resources and so few options, the time to act is now. Patrick Dollard, president and CEO of The Center for Discovery cuts to the chase when he states "there are still a lot of people who put their hands over their head ….it's not coming it's not coming……it's here!". The time to act is now.
Various programs are sprouting around the country to foster independence for young adults. It will prove fruitful in the long run, for the massive cost to society. John Maltby, Director of Communications for the Westchester Institute for Human Development aptly states that there is "good evidence that the more that people are integrated into the community..employed in typical settings...the better the outcome for the taxpayer".
Listen to the young adults in this video. Hear them. Individuals from the BCUW/Madeline Partnership, WJCS POINT Program and The Center for Discovery dispel the myth that people with autism cannot socialize.
The time to act is now. It is an alarm for society to wake up, take notice, and be part of the solution.

Among the new movies that were released Friday, Feb. 28 are a dramedy about a young woman who works at a sex shop, a romantic comedy centered around the National Air Sex Championships and a thriller that takes place 30,000 feet above the ground.
Emma Roberts plays a naive college graduate who believes that she is destined to be a great poet and begrudgingly accepts a job at a sex shop while she pursues a mentorship with a reclusive writer (John Cusack). (R - 97 minutes)
At one point during "Adult World," the new dramedy's characters complain about the hardships of a 20-something-year-old - the awkward age of an individual who can no longer be considered a kid but is not quite ready to enter into adulthood. The triviality of the grievance is a great example of the entire flick's callow outlook. That is to say that while there are scenes of momentary amusement throughout the movie, it is mostly an exercise in petty whining from characters who would never have even the slightest chance of surviving in the real world. As a result, you absolutely refuse to root for any of them - especially star Emma Roberts - to succeed. (Thumbs Down!)
Michael Stahl-David plays a brokenhearted man who flies to Austin for the weekend in hopes of "accidentally" running into his ex-girlfriend (Ashley Bell) only to arrive to find their best friends (Zach Cregger and Sara Paxton) in the middle of their own vicious breakup. (NR - 91 minutes)
Perhaps writer/director Bryan Poyser recognized that the "love" part of "Love & Air Sex" was a bit too conventional and therefore decided to spice things up with the "air sex" part. However, as it turns out, conventional is a whole lot better than tasteless. Granted, the concept of Air Sex World Championships may sound amusing but, if this real sporting event (if you can call it that) is anything like it is portrayed in this motion picture, it is far more moronic than anything. And the good part of this romantic comedy - the conventional yet really relatable part - suffers as a result. (Thumbs Down!)
Liam Neeson plays an air marshal who springs into action during a transatlantic flight after receiving a series of text messages that put his fellow passengers at risk unless the airline transfers $150 million into an off-shore account. (PG-13 - 110 minutes)
"Non-Stop" is an incredibly intense motion picture. However, as far as thrillers that take place 30,000 feet above the ground go, it flies fairly low. That is to say that while the new Liam Neeson-led actioner gets the job done it does not quite reach the heights of, say, "Red Eye," "Flightplan" or "Turbulence." That is because after a spectacularly suspenseful first half, the flick loses a little of its credibility with a few plot holes before eventually throwing all caution to the wind and becoming absolutely ludicrous. Granted, this yields fun and excitement, but it does not exactly jive with the movie's otherwise somber message about how our skies may not be as secure as some would lead us to believe. (Thumbs Up!)

Just yesterday shocking news came out about the arrest of a mom from "Cheer Perfection" being arrested on rape charges. On Jan. 15, TMZ reported that now a male coach from the show has been picked up on drug charges.
Ronald Dunlap is the co-owner of Cheer Time Revolution. Late last night he was arrested for marijuana possession and possession of drug paraphernalia. Another coach Ryan Dahl was with him, but has never been seen on the show before. He was also arrested at the scene.
When the police officer found them, they did admit to smoking the weed. Ronald Dunlap has already been released from jail and Ryan Dahl is still in custody at this time. Both are on suspension from the gym because they have a no drugs policy there. This is all really shocking after the arrest of Andrea Clevenger yesterday on charges of rape.
Do you think that "Cheer Perfection" will continue to air on TLC after all of this scandal? Sound off in the comments below. Please like my Facebook for the latest in entertainment news.

College Hockey:ECAC Hockey picks: Week 15
Last week: 6-2-1
Overall: 62-64-22
The league's one-two combo of Quinnipiac and Princeton have the weekend off, so now's a good time for the rest of the ECAC to start taking advantage of those games in hand. All start times are 7 p.m. unless noted. I'll be in Providence for Dartmouth and Brown tomorrow, so follow along on Twitter: @NateOwen41.
Friday, Jan. 18
Colgate at Rensselaer
Friday marks the first conference game for the Raiders since a 5-4 win over Clarkson on Dec. 1. Colgate has played just four games in that span – sweeps of the University of Massachusetts and Sacred Heart – and enters on a five game winning streak. This is also RPI's first annual Autism Awareness Game. Read more about it here. Colgate wins
Cornell at Union
Both the Big Red and Dutchmen have been atop the ECAC in recent years, but the pair enter Friday's game a combined one game over .500 in league play. It's Union's first home game since Dec. 1, although as Dutchmen head coach Rick Bennett said earlier this week, being at home doesn't always mean everything, citing Union's 4-1 loss to Merrimack way back in the season opener. Union wins
Dartmouth at Brown
Big Green head coach Bob Gaudet can probably relate to what the Bears are going through, as it was only a year ago that Dartmouth was hit hard by injuries. It's Brown's turn this year, as the Bears have had a number of players out of the lineup, especially on defense. Dartmouth wins
Harvard at Yale, 7:30 p.m., NBC Sports Network
One of the nation's oldest rivalries hits the national stage on NBC Sports Network. Yale is coming off its first North Country sweep since 2003-04, while Harvard's only win over its last eight games was last week's wild 6-5 overtime victory against Boston University. Yale wins
Saturday, Jan. 19
Harvard at Brown, 4 p.m.
Both of these shorthanded teams have struggled to score goals lately (with the exception of the aforementioned Harvard win against BU). I'll take the Crimson.Harvard wins
Colgate at Union
Special teams should be the focal point in this one. Both Union's (first in nation) and Colgate's (12th) power plays have been clicking lately. But the Dutchmen's penalty kill has been better thus far, and that should be the difference. Union wins
Dartmouth at Yale
The Big Green snapped a lengthy skid against the Bulldogs with a victory earlier in the year, but I think Yale takes this one at home. Yale wins
St. Lawrence at Clarkson
This is the last regular season matchup between these travel partners and North Country rivals. The Golden Knights are just 2-5 over their last seven games, with both those wins coming against the Saints in December. SLU hasn't exactly been on fire lately either; the Saints are 2-1 over their last three, but had lost five in a row prior to that. Saints win
Cornell at Rensselaer
These teams return to ECAC play after facing a stretch of tough non-conference opponents. RPI was the first league team to take a point for Quinnipiac this season, and the Engineers handed Yale a 6-1 loss at Ingalls last month. Still, I think Cornell gets it done here. Cornell wins

By Mark Miller
The last Grateful Dead concert, July 9, 1995 at Soldier's Field in Chicago was a rather mediocre finale, even by diminished 1990's Grateful Dead standards. Jerry Garcia was clearly at the end; only singing six songs, his playing was inconsistent at best.
Still, most in attendance witnessed a positive final glimpse of Jerry, standing on the stage catwalks with his band mates as they watched post-show fireworks that marked the end of tour. Later dubbed "the tour from hell," it was a month-long disaster that saw Deadheads struck by lighting, ticketless fans bum rushing a Deer Creek show and Garcia himself receiving death threats from Christian extremists blaming him for leading young people into drug use instead of Jesus.
Though nobody knew it at the time, that July 9 concert was the end of the Grateful Dead. Exactly one month later, Jerome John Garcia would inhabit flesh no more.
August 9, 2005 marks the 10th anniversary of Garcia's death. If Jerry were still alive, he would've just turned 63 (his birthday being August 1), maybe onstage with the Dead or his own Jerry Garcia Band, or perhaps jamming in a smoky room in Marin with David Grisman on mandolin.
While the Grateful Dead were more than Jerry Garcia, Jerry Garcia was certainly more than the Grateful Dead; even that amazing band could not contain all his musical expressions.
Dennis McNally, Grateful Dead publicist, historian and author of the Dead biography A Long Strange Trip, opins: "I think Jerry is one of the great American musicians in terms of the range of material he covered. I teased Jerry that he had a job as a professor of musicology when he gave up performing."
Garcia died of heart failure on that early Wednesday morning in summer 1995 in a Marin rehab center, though it was cigarettes and cheeseburgers that did him in more than any illicit drugs.
When he expired Garcia was a shell of his former self, never fully recovering from a diabetic coma suffered in 1986. But from the mid-'60s through the mid-'80s Garcia was one of the most innovative guitarists in all of rock, even if he didn't receive the mainstream press attention of Hendrix, Page and Clapton.
Blair Jackson, author of Garcia: An American Life says: "I found Jerry to be the John Coltrane of the guitar in his breadth of playing. He didn't have the technical ability of Eric Clapton, but he tried more styles than any other rock guitarist."
The irony of the Dead's "stadium success" of the late '80s was that the Dead were 10 years past their peak when the majority of their fan base got on the bus.
David Gans, host of The Grateful Dead Hour notes, "The Grateful Dead were winding down, with declining interest, energy and inspiration. As the income rose, the commitment to creativity declined."
But for those fortunate Deadheads who boarded that bus to never-ever land during their Acid Test origins of the '60s through jamming in front of the Egyptian Pyramids in the '70s, they were witness to something special indeed.
"In his prime, Jerry was an absolutely unique and irresistible musician," Gans adds. "He played with such subtlety and grace."
In the wake of Jerry's passing, the field opened up for the plethora of "jam-bands" that emerged in the mid- and late '90s. If the jam-band scene as a whole prospered in the wake of Jerry's death, the same can't quite be said of the surviving members of the Grateful Dead. Though they reunited as both The Other Ones and "The Dead" (the 2003 incarnation that eschewed "Grateful" in memory of Jerry), the various surviving members have shifted from project to project since Garcia's demise, always in flux.
Perhaps the disunity displayed by the surviving members was meant to be. It undoubtedly underscores Garcia's position of Grateful Dead leader, whether he wanted it or not. McNally agreed: "Jerry refused to lead, but he led by force of personality. He was what brought them together and held them together, even in the last five years of the Grateful Dead."
"The methodology of decision making changed after Jerry died," Jackson asserts. "It was no longer a consensus, but done by voting, which made things contentious."
Jerry wasn't perfect, he wasn't God, and he certainly wouldn't qualify as the "ultimate Deadhead," given his refusal to play '60s gems like "St. Stephen" and "Mountains of the Moon" thousands of Deadheads longed for. McNally attributed it to lack of practice, but Jackson contends Jerry felt those songs didn't resonate with him as the earthier, less psychedelic Workingman's Dead and American Beauty material did.
When it comes to affixing a legacy on Jerry, opinions also diverge.
McNally: "Jerry's greatest legacy is the way Bob [Weir] listened to him and learned how to treat his band Ratdog."
Gans: "Jerry would be the first to say he wasn't the greatest guitarist. But like the best of musicians, he created a universe of his own."
Jackson: "Everyone who had Jerry as the central part of their lives have been looking for something to give them a flash of his personality, stage presence and the way he played. It leaves me empty every time I've looked for that."
A 1974 version of "Dark Star" plays in the background: it's the ultimate Grateful Dead song from their peak year of onstage spontaneity, and Jerry's guitar soars like a streaking fireball comet hurtling through the cosmos one moment, yet calls out like a wounded bird searching for its nest in the next. That Jerry could travel in and out of both worlds of power and grace so effortlessly, so naturally, is testament to a heritage that will always have something more to offer the listener. And what more could you ask from any musician?

Tam-Tara Deepcroft
Dungeon Overview
Tam-Tara Deepcroft is the second instanced dungeons players will discover in Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn. The dungeon is situated in the Central Shroud area, south of Gridania. It is a dungeon designed for four players all over level 16. For your first trip to TTD you must be on the proper step of the level 15 City Quest, Fire in the Gloom. This step sends you to Gridania to meet with Mama Mioune at the Adventurer's Guild. She will direct you to Tam Tara Deepcroft.
TTD is largely a direct instance, but it does feature a few side rooms. Some of these have treasure chests. The dungeon has a ninety minute timer to complete. This leaves plenty of time to complete the dungeon, so you should consider grabbing some of these extra chests. TTD is designed for parties in the 16-19 range and will level sync players over 19th down to 19th level.
Most fights involve two or three NPC's and boss type encounters involve dealing with adds that spawn midway through the fight. The dungeon also features a few roaming NPC's, so you will occasionally get added mobs midway through a hallway fight.
Finding Tam-Tara Deepcroft
TTD is southwest of the Bentbranch Meadows in the Central Shroud. You only need one player to reach the TTD zone-in, but the remainder of the party needs to be in the Central Shroud.
Tam-Tara Deepcroft Objectives
Your Duty Log for Tam Tara Deepcroft provides you with four objectives. The first three objectives involve breaking barriers, finding rosaries and destroying orbs. The final objective involves defeating Galvanth the Dominator at the end of the dungeon.
You will find Cultist Rosary located in a side room of the dungeon. The Rosary room is guarded by several Mena undead. The Varlet category of undead casting class monsters, most likely Thaumaturgists. In general, I prefer to focus the party on the Varlet and then shift to the lancers.
You will also find a pair of barriers in the dungeon. Right clicking on these barriers drops them and opens up the encounter behind the barrier. Once this is done, gather your party and prepare for a mini-boss fight!
Behind each of the barriers, you will find a Priest and a few Gravedigger Imps. Focus on the Priest and then the Imps, these fellows all drop rather quickly. However, they were only a distraction.
The real mini-boss is summoned once this pack of creatures is defeated. A Void Soulcounter will spawn and attack the party. These are reasonably easy mini-boss fights, however you get no rest between the pack and this mini-boss. So, it's important for the tank to be ready to quickly pickup aggro. Also, it's a good idea to save some MP near the end of the Gravedigger fight so that you have enough to get a Flash off at the start of the Soulcounter fight.
After defeating the Soulcounter, you can destroy the Orbs he protected. Additionally, your party will get a treasure chest to loot. Destroying the final pair of Orbs leads you to a rather neat cutscene in which a bridge raises up, allowing you to approach and engage Galvanth, the boss of the instance!
Galvanth the Dominator
Galvanth is the final boss of Tam Tara Deepcroft. This is a fairly lengthy fight, lower level groups may need several minutes to complete this encounter. The fight features multiple stages, each with adds. Throughout the encounter, Galvanth chain casts Water spells on his primary target. Additionally, Galvanth casts a point blank area of effect (PBAOE) mind trap spell which adds a paralysis effect to all caught in it. When you see the big red circle, get out of it!
Melee DPS won't suffer too much from the Mind Trap, but characters with long induction (or cast bars) will find a number of their attacks interrupted. Best to stay at long range and engage him if you are concerned about the Mind Trap.
Galvanth summons adds at three intervals in the fight. It is unclear whether these intervals occur at the 75/50/25 health stages or whether they are timed. We have progressed through this dungeon with different levels and group compositions with varying kill speed. During these runs, it appears that it follows 75/50/25, but that may be slightly off.
During the first add phase, Galvanth summons a single Imp. This arises on the outside of the battle platform on one of the alcoves. As with other imps, this one is a ranged attacker. He simply stays put and fires away. The tank should move Galvanth over and everyone should kill the imp and then return to Galvanth.
During the second add phase, Galvanth summons a single Imp along with a small pack of dungeon trash mobs (skeletons and mitelings). We typically have the tank Flash the pack mobs and hold them, while the DPS kills the Imp. Following the kill of the Imp, take out the trash mobs and return to Galvanth.
The third add phase is the make or break phase. In this phase, two imps and a pack of trash spawn. It is important to get both imps down as quickly as possible or your healers will have trouble. The imps will not move and you can not Flash aggro both of them. Thus, the healer will eventually have more threat on one Imp than the tank can manage. Imp damage also interrupts heals, making this a potentially lethal problem for your team. As before, we have the tank Flash the pack of mobs and then attempt to engage one Imp while your DPS works down the second Imp.
Finishing Tam Tara Deepcroft
If this was your first trip to TTD, you will want to make your way back to Gridania and visit Mama Mioune at the adventurer's guild. This will advance your city quest to the third dungeon at Ul'dah. Take a moment to thank your party, congratulate them on items won. If you will be continuing on right then, it's polite to see if others on your team want to join you at Copperbell Mines in Ul'dah.

2012 All-Pac-12 Football Team
2012 Celebration Of Husky Football Information
In addition to Trufant and Seferian-Jenkins, 10 Huskies earned honorable mention: linebacker Travis Feeney, safety Justin Glenn, defensive end Andrew Hudson, safety Sean Parker, tailback Bishop Sankey, center Drew Schaefer, defensive tackle Danny Shelton, safety Shaq Thompson, linebacker John Timu and wide receiver Kasen Williams.
The All-Pac-12 team is voted on by the conference coaches.
Trufant, a senior from Tacoma, Wash., capped his outstanding career by making the first team. A four-year starter at cornerback, he was a key factor in the Huskies' marked improvement in pass defense that current has them ranked 17th in the nation. Trufant, who was credited with 34 tackles in 2012, has started 46 games in his UW career.
Seferian-Jenkins, a sophomore from Fox Island, Wash., is one of three finalists for the John Mackey Award, given annually to the nation's top tight end. He currently shares the national lead for receptions by a tight end with 63, a UW single-season record, and has also broken the school records for career receptions, yards and touchdowns by a tight end. This season, he has 789 receiving yards and six TDs.
USC receiver Marqise Lee was named the conference's offensive player of the year while Arizona State's Will Sutton earned the defensive honor. Oregon's Marcus Mariota and USC's Leonard Williams were the freshman offensive and defensive players of the year, respectively, while Stanford's David Shaw earned the coach of the year.

The city will hold a public meeting on Thursday as another step in the development of a neighborhood plan for the Southside area. The meeting will be held at the MLK Community Center, located at 401 South 8th Street.
A neighborhood plan for the Southside is being developed to help guide future development of the area. Community input is a vital part of the planning process and residents are encouraged to participate. Several meetings and focus groups have already been held to gather input.
As the city rapidly approaches build-out, it becomes increasingly important to proactively prepare for the development of remaining vacant land, infill development, and redevelopment of existing areas. Development of small-area neighborhood plans help build consensus and a shared vision for the future of a community, which leads to clear expectations for residents, property owners, and developers alike.
The Southside area is facing increasing redevelopment pressures in light of the success of development downtown and an increased demand for urban mixed use living, working, and retail/commercial space. The development of this plan by the city is an effort to help guide development proactively in tandem with the redevelopment already underway in the northern downtown area.
The Southside plan area includes the Dry Pond, Bottom, and Lake Forest neighborhoods. The plan area is bounded by the river to the west, 17th Street to the east, Market Street to the north, and Greenfield Lake to the south.
View a map of the study area. (May take a few moments to load).
Visit the city's Planning Division page for more details about the meeting, including highlights from the past three meetings.

Minutemen and Crimson will meet for the 25th time
Nov. 12, 2012
• The Massachusetts men's basketball team will open the 2012 season against Harvard as part of the 2012 ESPN College Hoops Tip-Off Marathon event.• This is the 104th season of UMass Basketball. UMass has an all-time record of 1,186-1,059 (.537) in 2,245 games. UMass is 439-301 (.593) in conference games, including a 275-281 in Atlantic 10 play. The Minutemen have claimed 15 regular-season conference championships and five tournament titles.
FOUR STARTERS, 9 LETTERMAN BACK FROM 25-WIN SQUAD• UMass welcomes back four starters, including its top four scorers and nine of its top 10 rebounders from last season's team that went 25-12 and reached the NIT Final Four. Led by All-America candidate Chaz Williams at the point guard spot, the Minutemen will look to continue their up-tempo offensive style and full-court pressure defense in head coach Derek Kellogg's (64-65) fifth year at his alma mater.• UMass returns the following percentages in 2012-13: Scoring 89.3 pct.; Rebounding 83.2 pct.; Assists 94.7 pct.; Steals 91.7 pct.; Blocks 76.7 pct.; Minutes 85.4 pct.• Williams (16.9 ppg, 6.2 apg, 4.4 rpg), a first team NABC all-district and all-conference selection, was one of just three players in Division I last year to average at least 16.0 points, 6.0 assists and 4.0 rebounds per game. The others were Tim Frazier of Penn State and Nate Wolters of South Dakota State.• UMass recorded a school-record 326 steals last season (8.8 spg, 7th in NCAA) which aided in its 76.6 possessions per game, ranking the Minutemen second nationally behind Seattle's 77.2.
UMASS' MARATHON GAME NUGGETS• Tuesday's 10 a.m. tipoff with Harvard is the sixth game of the 2012 ESPN College Hoops Marathon where the network shows 24-consecutive hours of games across the country.• The Minutemen participated in the initial event in 2008 when they played at Memphis in a game that began at midnight EST as the first contest of 14.• The day will be a showcase for the Atlantic 10 Conference as five teams will be among four of the games. Temple will play at Kent State in the game following UMass, while league newcomer Butler will travel to Xavier in a non-conference game at 4 p.m. VCU will also host Wichita State at 7 p.m.
SERIES HISTORY WITH HARVARD• UMass and Harvard will be meeting for the 25th time as the Minutemen hold a 14-10 series lead. UMass won the most recent match-up, 98-63, in Springfield on Dec. 27, 1991.• Derek Kellogg played 15 minutes as a true freshman in 1991, scoring two points and handing out four assists. Lou Roe had 15 points and six rebounds in the contest.• The Crimson won the initial contest, 25-21, on Jan. 26, 1921.• The teams met at least once every year from 1971-82, with the Minutemen holding a 10-4 edge during that time.• Alex Eldridge collected a school-record eight steals in the Minutemen's 73-66 road win on Nov. 30, 1977. • UMass's 67-44 win on Feb. 2, 1980 snapped a 29-game losing skid - the longest in program history.• The schools both participated in last season's inaugural Battle 4 Atlantis in the Bahamas but did not meet in the bracket.
WELCOMING THE WORLDWIDE LEADER• ESPN's visit to Amherst will be the first in two seasons, dating back to Jan. 30, 2010 when the Charlotte game was carried on ESPNU. The last ESPN/ESPN2 broadcast from the Mullins Center, which turns 20 this season, was a year earlier for the Minutemen's victory over Temple on Jan. 19, 2009.• ESPN will return to Amherst on Feb. 3, 2013 to broadcast the UMass-Saint Joseph's contest.• UMass will play its first four games on the ESPN family of networks. On Thursday, it will open play in the Puerto Rico Tip-Off on ESPNU, with subsuquent games on ESPN2, ESPNU or ESPN3. The Minutemen's final four games of last season were played before national audiences as a part of ESPN's NIT coverage.• UMass has a special relationship with ESPN as the network has televised some memorable games in the past 20 years. They aired the final "Rage in the Cage" on Jan. 29, 1993 against Louisiana-Lafayette (then SW Louisiana) and the first game in the Mullins Center on Feb. 4, 1993, an overtime win over West Virginia.
WILLIAMS, RILEY PACE UMASS IN 87-82 EXHIBITION WIN• Chaz Williams had 24 points and 11 assists while Freddie Riley added six 3-point field goals to lead Massachusetts to a 87-82 exhibition victory over American International at the Mullins Center on Saturday.• UMass shot 48 percent from the floor and was 12-of-24 from outside as four Minutemen scored in double figures. Terrell Vinson had 11 points and seven boards with Maxie Esho providing 11, three and four assists. Sampson Carter came off the bench to collect seven points, five rebounds and three assists.• UMass assisted on 22 of its 31 field goals, including 11 of its 12 triples.• AIC, which lost at UConn by 15 two days earlier, was led by Ricky Hudson's 20 points, along with David Campbell's 17 points and 10 rebounds. The Yellow Jackets shot 47 percent on the day and made 11 3-pointers.• The Minutemen converted 12 Yellow Jacket turnovers into 16 points but yielded 17 second-chance points.
UMASS SELECTED FIFTH IN A-10 PRESEASON POLL• UMass was selected fifth in the preseason Atlantic 10 Poll in a vote by media and coaches. Saint Joseph's was picked to win the league followed by Saint Louis, VCU, Temple and UMass. The Hawks had 11 first place votes, while the Billikens had 10 votes. Temple, UMass and Butler all had two first place votes in the poll.• Junior Chaz Williams was named to the preseason First Team. Williams had a banner campaign in 2011-12 in leading UMass to the NIT Semifinals. The Brooklyn native was named to the All-Atlantic 10 First Team, the A-10 All-Championship Team and the NABC All-District 4 First Team.• Among national publications, Athlon picked the Minutemen to finish fourth and make a return trip to the NIT. They also tabbed Chaz Williams as the Preseason Player of the Year and one of the top 10 Floor Leaders in the nation. Lindy's had UMass seventh but listed it as a team folks may want as an A-10 sleeper team. Williams was bestowed the honor of being the Most Entertaining player in the league.
UMASS AMONG TOP 3-POINT SHOOTING TEAMS IN 2011-12• UMass averaged 8.1 3-point field goals per game a year ago, which ranked first in the Atlantic 10 and 31st nationally. The Minutemen made 288 triples to rank second all-time in school history.• UMass was one of just four schools in Division I with four players who made at least 50 treys. The others were Florida, Iowa State and Youngstown State.
MULLINS CENTER TURNS 20 IN 2012-13• UMass is entering its 20th season of play at the William D. Mullins Memorial Center and has posted an all-time record of 192-75 (.719). The Minutemen also own a 103-49 (.676) all-time record in regular-season Atlantic 10 Conference games at the Mullins Center, and a 4-2 mark in Atlantic 10 Tournament contests. The first game was played on Feb. 4, 1993 as UMass defeated West Virginia 64-59 in overtime.• UMass was dominant at home last season, posting a 15-1 record in Amherst, which included a 14-1 record at the Mullins Center (1-0 at historic Curry Hicks Cage) and a renewed home-court advantage with the student-based Mullins Militia. UMass averaged 4,359 fans in 15 dates last season. Those numbers got increasingly higher as the season evolved to 5,411 for eight A-10 home games and 6,614 for the last five regular-season home dates. The Minutemen saw four crowds of more than 6,200 in the final six games, with a season-high 8,399 in the victory over Saint Louis.
2012-13 SCHEDULE ONE OF THE STRONGEST UNDER KELLOGG• The 2012-13 UMass schedule has the potential to be one of the strongest since Derek Kellogg took over prior to the 2008-09 season. The ledger has 12 games against teams that participated in the postseason last year (7 NCAA, 4 NIT, 1 CBI), with the potential of as many as 14 based on the Puerto Rico Tip-Off bracket. Eight of the 14 home games fall on Saturdays with one Sunday contest.• The schedule currently features 14 games against schools that finished 2011-12 in the top 100 of the RPI.• UMass will look to improve upon it's 2-6 A-10 record away from Amherst, but will do so against one of the tougher slates. The Minutemen will travel to Charlotte, Fordham, La Salle, Rhode Island, St. Bonaventure, Saint Louis, VCU and Xavier in 2012-13. That group, which includes VCU's 8-1 CAA home record, combined to go 44-21.
UMASS A POPULAR TV CHOICE IN 2012-13• UMass is scheduled to appear on television 11 times this season with nine current match-ups slated for national broadcasts. That marks the most regular-season showings since the 1997-98 year.
UMASS POSTSEASON HSISTORY• UMass has an all-time postseason record of 24-21 in 18 combined appearances in both the NCAA and NIT tournaments. The Minutemen have made eight NCAA Tourney showings, with the last in 1998. The first came in 1962 before a string of seven-consecutive from 1992-98 in which it ran its all-time record to 11-8 with an Elite Eight showing in 1995 and the only Final Four appearance in A-10 history in 1996. Last season the Minutemen collected their 11th NIT appearance and ran their record to 13-13, which included Final Fours in 1991 (fourth), 2008 (runner-up) and 2012 (tied-third).
ATLANTIC 10 CONFERENCE• The A-10 ranked seventh among all conferences in the final RPI in 2011-12. The league boasted eight Top 100 teams, third among all leagues behind only the Big East and Big 10. The eight teams matched the SEC and was more than the ACC, Big 12, Pac-12 and Mountain West.
A-10 IN THE NCAA TOURNAMENT• For the fifth year in a row, the Atlantic 10 Conference earned at least three bids into the NCAA Tournament while it marked the 27th time in the league's 35-year history that the conference received multiple bids to participate in the national tournament. The A-10 also received multiple at-large bids for the fifth year in a row and 18th time overall. Over the last six years, the league has had 12 at-large selections – the seventh most among Division I conferences - behind only the Big East (42), Big Ten (29), ACC (26), Big 12 (26), SEC (23) and the Pac-10 (22). In fact, the A-10 is one of eight conferences to receive at least one at-large selection over each of the last six seasons.
UP NEXT: PUERTO RICO TIP-OFF• Tuesday evening UMass will fly to San Juan to take part in the 2012 Puerto Rico Tip-Off, which will be held Nov. 15-18 at the Coliseo Ruben Rodriguez in Bayamon. Joining UMass in the field are Akron, UNC Asheville, NC State, Oklahoma State, Penn State, Providence and Tennessee. The Minutemen are one of four teams in the field that finished the 2011-12 season with a top-100 RPI, and all eight teams finished in the top 160. NC State and UNC Asheville each made the NCAA Tournament a year ago, while Akron and Tennessee joined the Minutemen in the NIT.• UMass will be making its second-ever appearance in an event in Puerto Rico, having previously participated in the 1999 Puerto Rico Holiday Classic in Bayamon. The Minutemen have an all-time record of 77-67 in regular-season tournaments, including a 7-6 record in Kellogg's four years at the helm. Atlantic 10 schools are 9-6 all-time in the previous five years of the event.• Former Minutemen stars Edgar and Giddel Padilla (1993-97) came to UMass from their hometown of Toa Alta, Puerto Rico, located 30 minutes west of San Juan on the northern side of the island, while Carmelo Travieso (1993-97) was born in the San Juan suburb of Rio Piedras before moving to Boston at age 11.• The UMass swimming & diving teams have made training trips to P.R. each of the past four years. The teams spend 10 days in early January training in San Juan before returning to Amherst for the final two months of their seasons. The association with the U.S. territory goes back to the mid 1980s when current men's swimming & diving coach Russ Yarworth coached the UMass water polo team. Yarworth would routinely recruit the island with the majority of the Minutemen roster being comprised of member of the Puerto Rican National Team. To bring the story full circle, the pool that the current teams train at is one of the pool used by the Puerto Rico national Water Polo team.

JWC TO ISABELLA CARLYLE ; 3 August 1857; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18570803-JWC-IC-01; CL 33: 7-8
Auchtertool—Kircaldy / Monday [3 August 1857]
My dear Isabella
Many thanks for your kind note; it was brought from Kircaldy yesterday by the Precentor, and the letters were sent back by him, when he had done his little job of singing; before I was told or had time to write an answer.
Dont vex your kind hearts about not being able to ask me to Scotsbrig. I am not up to scouring the Country and visiting here there and every where, as I did last year— I could not have gone into Dumfrieshire, without staying some time at Mrs Russells, who has been pressing me to come there, ever since I got about after my long confinement. And I should have had to stop at Dumfries, and stop at the Gill1—wet day or dry,—and all that tashing—2 about—that "toiling myself" as our old Betty3 calls it—would have knocked me up at present body and soul— So I had made up my mind to stay still as much as possible in one quarter of the Country— Indeed if I could have done it without mortally offending my Aunts and my Cousins I would have spent my whole time at Sunny Bank— However I am going back there for another week or so of my "native air" before I return to Chelsea— If I were there own Child these dear old women couldn't be kinder to me than they are—and their quiet and regular way of life is just suited to an Invalid—as I am afraid I must still call myself— Here there is too much ado about nothing and, the hours are too fashionable for me— Whether owing to that or not I cant tell; but I have been more unwell than I was at SunnyBank and as this journey to Scotland is not one of pleasure, or of idleness, or of restlessness; but wholly and solely with a view to getting a little stronger, and more able to carry on life at home. the fact that I am not so well is reason enough for shortening my stay—next week I mean to be at Haddington again.
Mr C seems to be getting on pretty well by himself— If I had not been sure that Ann could and would keep him right in material respects I couldnt have made up my mind to leave him there— He is very considerate anyhow in making no complaints in his letters.
My kindest regards to dear Jamie— I should like to have had a sight of his honest face—and a drive in the old gig with him, could it have been managed but it couldnt—had my room been lying ever so vacant, I couldnt have faced in my present state of nerves—all that tashing about— I will send you a line when I get home, to tell you how far my journey has been worth the pains and cost—
Yours affectionately / Jane W Carlyle

College Hockey:Engineers Shut Down Black Knights
Just 12 Shots For Army In Six-Goal Rensselaer Win
TROY, N.Y. — Rensselaer scored two goals in each of the three periods and got 12 saves from Nathan Marsters to defeat Army, 6-0, in a nonleague game before a crowd of 4,117 at the Houston Field House.
The Engineers opened the scoring when freshman Tommy Green tallied his first career goal on a two-on-one with sophomore Chris Hussey at 13:40 of the first period. Green started the play at center ice when he chipped it to Hussey, who carried the puck down the right side before sending a cross-ice pass to Green.
Sophomore Kirk MacDonald doubled Rensselaer's lead at 17:12 when he tallied on a rebound with the Engineers enjoying a power play.
RPI junior Cody Wojdyla made it 3-0 when he slipped a shot under Army netminder Brad Roberts with the Engineers shorthanded. Wojdyla's goal, assisted by Conrad Barnes, came at 9:21 of the second.
Another Rensselaer shorthander, this time by defenseman Brad Farynuk, made the score 4-0 in favor of the home team with just over four minutes to play. Farynuk collected a rebound of a Kevin Croxton shot and beat Roberts for his first of the season. Matt McNeely also assisted.
Rensselaer added two more goals in the third period for the 6-0 final. Green notched his second of the game on assists by Hussey and Wojdyla at 9:17 and defenseman Blake Pickett scored his first of the season just 47 seconds later. Pickett, who tallied from the bottom of the left faceoff circle, was assisted by C.J. Hanafin and freshman defenseman Ryan Swanson.
"We started out and played okay in the first, got stronger in the second and played real well in the third period. We got stronger as the game went along," said Engineer head coach Dan Fridgen. "Our forwards did a good job of creating offense and creating some space and our defense did a good job of moving the puck and making smart plays, and Nate was strong in the net tonight.
"We just kept rolling four lines and everyone was going and that's a great situation to be in. I was happy because everybody was getting time."
Marsters, a senior, stopped six shots in the first period, four in the second and two in the third for the shutout, his second over Army. Roberts had 18 saves in two periods before being replaced by Treye Kettwick, who made 14 stops.
RPI, which shut out the Black Knights for the third time in a row, improves to 1-2-1. Army falls to 2-1-0.
The Engineers will be on the road next Saturday night when they play at Merrimack in a nonleague game in North Andover, Mass., beginning at 7 p.m. Army will travel to Bentley for an Atlantic Hockey game next Saturday afternoon at 3 p.m.

Yesterday was the tenth anniversary of the death of President Ronald Reagan. He died on June 5, 2004, the eve of the 60th anniversary of the D-Day invasion and the 20th anniversary of his speech at Normandy remembering "the boys of Pointe du Hoc."
Earlier this year, Craig Shirley, author of Reagan's Revolution: The Untold Story of the Campaign That Started It All and of Rendezvous with Destiny: Ronald Reagan and the Campaign That Changed America, came to Charlottesville to speak at the Virginia Festival of the Book.
In an interview that weekend with the Charlottesville Libertarian Examiner, Shirley noted how Reagan viewed libertarianism as intrinsic to conservatism and often defined himself as a libertarian.
'Heart and soul'
Reagan, he explained, gave an interview to Reason magazine in 1975, in which "he said that libertarianism is the fundamental basis for American conservatism."
That interview, conducted by Reason's founding editor Manuel Klausner, appeared in the magazine's July 1975 issue. In it, Reagan said that "if you analyze it I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism... The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom and this is a pretty general description also of what libertarianism is."
Shirley pointed out that, "for a time, [Reagan] referred to himself publicly as a 'libertarian conservative.' I have interviews with him on CBS in which he referred to himself as a 'libertarian conservative.'"
Reagan, Shirley explained, "was not libertine but he was very much of the opinion, following Locke, Paine, and Jefferson, that [limited government] was about the individual and the privacy and the rights and the dignity of the individual. He said that many, many times in his political career."
Anti-gay Briggs Amendment
As an example of Reagan's libertarianism, Shirley recalled the then-future president's opposition to the Briggs Amendment in California, a 1978 voter initiative that would have banned gay men and lesbians from teaching in government schools.
John Briggs, he explained, was a California state senator in California. Briggs "had seen the political success that Anita Bryant had done in Dade County" with her campaign to end the local anti-discrimination ordinance that protected gay workers. "Her political star began to rise as she was taking on the gay rights movement," he said, noting that "Briggs had higher aspirations; he wanted to run for governor of California."
Briggs, he explained, "came up with an idea that would prohibit either those who championed a homosexual lifestyle or those who were gay and were out from being public school teachers. This deeply offended Ronald Reagan. You could say it was because of his libertarianism, or because of his upbringing, because of his mother's [influence] about allowing people to live and let live, or because of his cosmopolitan lifestyle that he was aware of during his days in Hollywood. He may have been informed by all three experiences but he was against it and he campaigned against it."
The November 1978 referendum was defeated by a 14-point margin and afterwards, Shirley recalled, Briggs had a press conference where he "was asked by a reporter, why did it lose?"
Briggs replied: "Ronald Reagan. Reagan campaigned against it, and that was it."
Shirley's recollections are confirmed in an article by James Duke Mason on June 5 in The Advocate, an LGBT magazine.
"Believe it or not," Mason wrote, "Reagan was one of the first major politicians in history to come out for gay rights. Just a year before he announced his candidacy for president, he came out forcefully" against the Briggs Amendment.
Not only did Reagan "have no political incentive to do it, but it could've been a huge catastrophe. In speaking out against the initiative, Reagan used language that was way ahead of its time; he argued that 'prevailing scientific opinion is that an individual's sexuality is determined at a very early age and that a child's teachers do not really influence this.' Some dismiss his support as too last-minute to have made a difference. But as his biographer Lou Cannon once put it, Reagan knew the risks but 'chose to state his convictions.'"
Briggs himself blamed Reagan for his amendment's defeat. Could he have equally blamed Reagan's core libertarianism?

Border Control
March/April 2010 Foreign Policy
After Israel normalized relations with its neighbor Jordan in 1994, University of Haifa biologist Uri Shanas studied how the fauna on either side of the border differed. He found that rodents in Israel were much more cautious than their counterparts in Jordan — a distinction Shanas attributes to Israel's more modern agricultural development.

It's the scariest time of year: Zombies, monsters, ghosts – and – the resurrection of the ever-expanding collection of Halloween costumes that has been hiding in the darkest corner of your home for the past 11 months!
The pirate's eye patch is all tangled up with the Mardi Gras beads, the cowboy hat is smashed beneath Superwoman's boots, there's a fake mustache stuck to the tutu, vampire blood on the Pope's robe, and one of Strawberry Shortcake's stockings appears to have sprouted a leg and hopped away.
How can you avoid such costume catastrophes next Hallows Eve? Organize that muddled nightmare into a savvy system fit for a king (or queen)!
Here's the secret: Organize according to your costume style.
Ask yourself: Are you a pre-packaged disguise doter or more of a piece-by-piece outfit originator?
1. Complete/pre-packaged costumes:
If your costume collection is a compilation of several complete disguises, separate each costume and its accessories from the others and label all of the contents so you can easily access the costume you're looking for without hunting down each piece of it next year. For example: Witch Costume (hat, dress, nose, wig)
Small costumes and accessories can be stored in Ziploc bags and shoe boxes, and bulkier disguises can be placed in shopping bags or moving boxes.
2. DIY odds and ends:
If you whip up a new and original costume composed of random odds and ends each year, take a different organizational approach by creating a collection of each type of garment, rather than costume themes.
Try separating tops, bottoms, headwear, footwear and accessories into their own bins or boxes, and labeling them accordingly. This way, you'll be able to let your creative juices flow as freely as a vampire's dinner next time you're looking to trick or treat.
Organizing for the Whole Family:
Does your costume collection include gender-specific or kids' costumes?
A great way to simply the family selection is to separate his, hers, and children's disguises and add a fourth category for costumes and accessories that can be worn by everyone. Now your whole family will be able to see their options for next year's costumes, as well as share the wealth of articles such as masks, wigs and other accessories.
I hope these tips help you and yours disguise yourselves in style and simplicity for many years to come – Happy Halloween!

Back in my undergrad days, I had a part time job teaching on weekends. During the one hour lunch break, the three other instructors and I would traipse down York Road to Yamato Sushi. I've long since left that job, but I still go to Yamato.
Just off of Aylesbury Avenue in the shopping center, the unassuming eatery is home to warm, welcoming people and delicious, high quality sushi. The interior is tastefully decorated with beautiful porcelain geisha dolls, bamboo, orchids and soft watercolor paintings. It's a BYOB establishment and they don't charge a corking fee (so bring your own sake kiddies!).
Yamato offers a variety of appetizers and teriyakis, pad thai and chicken dishes for the non-sushi-lovers in your life. They also have lunch specials, and for a very reasonable price (between $6.95 and $13.95), your generously portioned entree comes with miso soup. My favorite is the shrimp tempura with California roll. For a measly ten bucks, you get miso soup and a bento box with shrimp tempura, California roll, rice and a small salad.
Of course, the main attraction is the beautiful, fresh sushi. They have more combination platters than you could shake a stick at. Or you could do what I do, order individual rolls a la carte. Their nigiri rolls - a rice ball with sashimi on top - include octopus, bean curd, salmon, mackerel, shrimp, red snapper, tuna and unagi (eel), to scratch the surface. I prefer maki rolls, which have the rice on the outside and the tasty fillings inside. Their maki selection includes cucumber, avocado, shittake mushroom, tuna, salmon, California, shrimp tempura, Rainbow roll and yellowtail scallion. Veggie rolls, by the way, are light, delicious, and refreshing when paired with a fish roll. Then, of course, there are the specialty rolls. These feature a variety of Yamato's signature fresh fish and veggies combined with spices and sauces for a delicious sushi experience.
Each sushi roll is beautifully plated and includes six to eight pieces per sushi roll. It may not seem like much, but that's a lot of sushi, and this is some filling food! There's plenty of pickled ginger and wasabi to go around, and the staff is prompt and friendly to answer questions or refill your beverage.
Don't think that because it's a sushi joint they forgot dessert! They offer mango sticky rice (complete with fresh mango), green tea and red bean ice cream, as well as their mochi counterparts. Mochi ice cream is a small ball of ice cream that has been wrapped inside a delicate rice flour dough and frozen. They're almost too cute to eat!
Next time you're craving sushi or you're wandering the Timonium area and hunger, strikes, give Yamato a try. You'll be back for more, I promise you.

The Best Campgrounds in Ohio
It's easy to find a great RV spot in Ohio. Lakes, rivers, forests, and convenient locations offer variety and opportunities for exploration. Here's a look at a few of the top RV campgrounds in the Buckeye State that can appeal to a broad range of camping styles.
Indian Lake State Park
Set near 5,000 acre Indian Lake, this multi-use facility is great for families. Fishing, boating, hiking, biking, and exploring this 800 acre park will keep everyone happy with plenty of activities.
Shawnee State Park
At over 1,000 acres, it's a huge facility with lots of amenities. Located in the Appalachian foothills, the scenery is gorgeous. Two small lakes, a golf course, indoor swimming facility, and extensive hiking trails are just some of the opportunities for fun.
Cedarbrook Campground
Although there is RV camping within walking distance of the King's Island theme park near Cincinnati, Cedarbrook is a little more secluded. Still just eight miles away from the park in Lebanon, it's close, yet seems far away. The park has a full calendar of events in season to compliment the theme park experience.
Mohican State Park
Another large park at over 1,000 acres, this place is incredibly beautiful. Set near the Mohican River and Clear Fork Gorge, exploring the wild areas is the focus. That said, there are plenty of amenities as well. Volleyball, basketball, biking and kayaking are some of the attractions.
American Wilderness Campground and Event Center
It's the closest camping area to Cleveland and it has something for everyone. More attuned to a luxury experience than remote camping, it's a nice spot for those not wanting to get too far afield. There is a banquet hall available for your special events.
Lieth Run Recreation Area
Located about 20 minutes north of Marietta in the Wayne National Forest, the campground and recreation area appeal to RV campers hoping to spend some time relaxing. Just steps from the Ohio River, there is also much to do for those seeking an activity-filled vacation.
Scenic Hills RV Park
This one is a great choice for campers wanting to visit Amish areas. Located just outside Berlin in the heart of Amish Country, it's the perfect base for exploring the surrounding area. Large sites will accommodate big RVs and free WiFi is available.
Lock 30 Woodlands
A big plus here is that the facility is opened year round and has a heated clubhouse. If you are looking to get away outside of the main camping season, you can't go wrong here. It offers seclusion in a scenic environment that is just minutes away from town in Lisbon.

Dr. Al-Assaf leads Saudi delegation to G-20 meeting in Washington
April 19, 2013
Minister of Finance Dr. Ibrahim bin Abdulaziz Al-Assaf is leading the Saudi delegation to the Group of 20 (G-20) meeting in Washington, D.C., which began yesterday. He is accompanied by Governor of the Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency (SAMA) Dr. Fahd bin Abdullah Al-Mubarak and Deputy President and Managing Director of the Saudi Development Fund (SDF) Yusuf Al-Bassam.
In a joint statement released today, the G-20 Finance Ministers and central bank chiefs stressed the importance of maintaining stability in the world economy. They reiterated the commitment of advanced countries to develop fiscal policies to ensure the sustainability of their budgets before the next G-20 summit in September. The officials pledged to exert greater efforts to support the slow global recovery and vowed not to use their currencies to gain unfair trade advantages.
Dr. Al-Assaf also led the delegation to the spring meeting of the World Bank (WB) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in Washington yesterday. The gathering, attended by representatives from governments, banks, private businesses, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and the media, featured seminars and press conferences focused on the global economy, international development, and the world's financial markets.

On Friday, Dec. 21, 2012 at 9:30 a.m. church bells rang 26 times and America observed a moment of silence for the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting.
The entire world has been affected by this unspeakable act visited upon tiny, helpless, innocent children and their protectors.
The two burning questions in our minds and hearts are "Why?" and "What can we do to stop this from happening again?"
This Friday and Saturday would be great days to make your dinner plans as pick-up orders or home delivery from local restaurants. The temperature is going to plunge and it's a great night of entertainment and bargains that begins early at 6 p.m.
It's Kiwanis Charity Auction time and if you haven't seen it or heard about it then you haven't been paying attention. Kiwanis Charity Auction information has been on local cable television, local radio and the list of auction items have filled a page of this week's Grant County News and Express.
The first week of the 2013 Regular Session of the General Assembly is now complete. The legislature is now recessed for three weeks to give members time to organize, review bills, and draft others. We will reconvene February 5 for the remaining 26 days of session.
Where did respect
for others go?
I would like to commend Deborah Lucas Angel for her recent column "What a waste!". She was right on the money concerning laziness of shoppers. As an employee of Wal-Mart, I see this everyday. When we find items from the freezer or coolers, we are required by the state to throw these items away. We also throw away any item that the customer leaves at the checkout aisle because they do not want them and do not feel it is their place to put them back where they got them.
The second time around, things are always a little bit easier.
And, when it comes to potty training, that is the best news possible.
When my oldest son finally mastered using the toilet life just got a little bit easier.
We did not have to spend ungodly amounts of money on diapers anymore.
Our house did not constantly smell like a garbage dump. (Although the bathroom tended to have a pee smell when his aim wasn't the best at first.)
It's not the "fiscal cliff" that is so bothersome about the fiasco of the last few months. No, it is the audacity and arrogance of our elected officials that were "battling it out" to "try" to come up with an appropriate plan.
Yeah, right.
No one would give. Republicans and Democrats were only separated by their platforms. Our supposedly austere "leaders" were laughing out loud at suggestions from their opposition; sneering at proposals from the other side.
We often ask our readers to submit items to us.
In the past we've asked people to share their favorite holiday memory or the best Christmas gift they've ever received.
We enjoy hearing from our readers and believe that readers like to read about other readers' lives, interests and hobbies.
FRANKFORT - With the holiday season behind us, the General Assembly returned to Frankfort to prepare to deal with several crucial issues facing our Commonwealth.
The first task of the 2013 legislative session was to elect leadership for the respective caucuses, receive committee assignments and essentially get our footing as we get ready for the work ahead of us. It's also a time of transition for me and the other new members in the House as we prepare for the first legislative session.

Firstly, congratulations to your engagement, and a wonderful and fun journey to finding your dream wedding dress! I am selling a sample Maggie Sottero, "Helena", wedding dress that I have never worn before. It is practically brand new condition (the exterior is so new you do not need to dry clean) with no alterations so you can custom to your specifications from the original gown! The dress is in Ivory color and size 10.
The dress has the well known Maggie Sottero corset and I have to admit Maggie does the corset more beautiful than a lot of designers- much more classier. Additionally, since it has a beautiful corset backing, you do not have to worry about fitting into your dress on your most important day because a corset backing allows you to adjust even after alterations. It is a one shoulder with a sweetheart neckline (best of both worlds!), an asymmetrical waist with boning on the inside (perfect to help keep everything in place and make you look skinny!!), and has the most dreamiest train ever. You will feel like the most beautiful bride. The material is mainly Taffeta, however there is beading on one side of the chest and well placed on the sides and back of the dress. Having the beading on the side of the dress is great because your guests can see the side and back beading details as you walk down the aisle.
Original cost of dress was $1400. Local buyers can pick up. Comes with a protected garment bag.
I can email estimated measurements (bust, waist, hips) and more pictures if you are interested.

Raising a family is a difficult task for anyone. Imagine having to do it at 19 years old. That's what happened to Chipola College student Lawanda Peterson. She became head of her household when her mother passed away of breast cancer.
The oldest of seven children, Lawanda's been the primary caregiver for her six brothers and sisters for almost a year. Now, she's getting the chance to tell her story.
On Wednesday she's heading to New York to be on the Montel Williams Show. She and two of her brothers and sisters will be featured on the segment "amazing families.
"I don't think God would have did it without a reason, and I don't think he puts more on me than I can bear. It's been pretty hard, but I know it's made me stronger and made me feel like I'm able to do what I'm doing," says Peterson.
Lawanda is a freshman at Chipola College. She plans to get a degree in nursing and eventually become a registered nurse.

You posted this question in the wrong section. If you really believe in numerology then you are already on the path your numbers say you should be on. All you need to do is believe in yourself.

In a future not too far from today, the beginning of the new Disney produced Star Wars era will officially debut with a new animated series Star Wars Rebels airing next fall on Disney XD. Star Wars fans will be excited to learn the new animated series will take place between Episodes III and IV, covering the events leading up to the original film and the birth of the Rebel Alliance.
Entertainment Weekly is the first news source to provide a new image of the upcoming animated series. Front and center is the show's new villain, the Inquisitor, an assassin of the Emperor assigned to hunt down any remaining Jedi, and next to him are two very familiar soldiers dressed in white armor. Not to be confused with Clone Troopers from the prequels, but Star Wars Rebels will feature the return of classic Stormtroopers from the original trilogy. Since the new animated series takes place before Episode IV: A New Hope, fans might be lucky enough to see the return of many beloved characters: C3-P0, R2-D2, Darth Vader, Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Chewbacca, etc. . .
It's too early to make any major Star Wars story/character appearance predictions. However, the debut of a new Star Wars animated series is appropriate timing with Episode VII schedule to be released in 2015.

Any traveler who doesn't have friends or family in New York City will empathize with how hard it is
to find an affordable hotel in New York City. Aside from Hosteling International in the Upper West
Side, it is unlikely that one can find a place to stay for under one hundred dollars a night in
Manhattan. Even if anyone can afford to spend that much money on a hotel, he may end up with
a creepy closet for a room.
Don't overlook the other boroughs though. NY Moore Hostel, for example, is in Williamsburg,
what's now known as a trendy area in Brooklyn. Even with rooms that place three or more
people, they are huge! Each room has lockers for each person so its a safe hostel. There are
clean bathrooms for each room. There is a big common area where people can watch tv,
socialize, and use the wireless internet. The staff is beyond friendly. They go above and beyond
to make sure everyone has a great stay at their hostel and they are good with providing travel
tips to tourists.
Most American hostels don't have the European home away from home feel to them like in
European hostels. But for some reason, visitors to this particular hostel can easily meet other
travelers right away. People are eager to introduce themselves and make friends as they do in
The surrounding area is decent as well. It is considered "up and coming", but in the past two years, there have been improvements in the area. There are several bars within walking distance on Flushing and Bushwick Avenue as well as some of the side streets. In fact, there is a tiki bar right down the street from the hostel on Moore Street which has amazing outdoor seating. There are ethnic restaurants all around, but one in particular is Note Thai, which is a Thai takeaway place that serves home cooked Thai food. The people are friendly from the moment customers walk in to the minute they leave, and the food is good too. There is only two small tables so it would be best to take it back to the hostel and eat it in the comfortable living room.
So whether traveling to New York City or a newcomer who's looking for an apartment, NY Moore
Hostel provides the best atmosphere and best value for money of most any hostel or hotel in
New York City.
