David Silverman—known as the "Ultimate Ancient Egypt Insider"—is the noted Egyptologist from the University of Pennsylvania who also served as a curator during the 1970s Tutankhamun tour.
While in Houston for the opening of Tutankhamun: The Golden King and the Great Pharaohs at the MFAH in October 2011, he answered questions during a live chat on Facebook and Twitter.
Q) What piece from the King Tut collection is your favorite, and why?
A) Two answers! First, from the non-Tut pieces: the cube/block statue of Hetep, because it is unique for its time; led to a new form of statuary; and is the closest the Egyptians come to abstract art. Also, the colossal statue of Tut [slideshow image #2], because it is the largest figure we have [over 9 feet tall] and the one with the most color still remaining.
Q) What is the most valuable piece in the exhibition?
A) That depends on what you mean by valuable! They're all priceless. Lots of gold, unique statues, important historical pieces. These works of art are not replaceable.
Q) You've been involved with King Tut since the 1970s. What has changed in past few decades?
A) Technologies, first of all. The ability to present info in a variety of different ways. For example: video labels, video text panels and murals, and contexts for each part of the exhibition to help relate the art objects to their original environment. Plus, all of the scientific info made available because of advanced medical technologies. And, oddly, the ticketing systems! Now, instead of waiting in long lines, people can buy online.
Q) What is one thing you wish you knew about King Tut? A piece of the puzzle that hasn't been solved yet . . .
A) We have come so close to unraveling the genealogy of the king, it would be great now to identify for certain the name of the mummy now named as the father of Tutankhamun.
Q) Tut was so young when his father died. What were their ages at the time?
A) Tut's father died at about age 40, when Tut was about 7 or 8 years old.
Q) How do historians think Tut died?
A) We rely now on scientific evidence. Information from CT scans, X-rays, and blood studies tells us that it wasn't murder or foul play. Probably complications coming from the fracture to his left leg that happened shortly before his death at age 19.
Q) King Tut's original name was Tutankhaten. Even if his father's legacy was not welcome, why was changing his name so important?
A) His original birth name, Tutankhaten, refers to the Aten, the disk of the sun, which was the focus of his father's revolutionary religion. Once the decision had been made to return to the traditional religion of many gods, the focus on the chief god Amon was reestablished; so, the young king adjusted his birth name to reflect his devotion to this god and changed his name to Tutankhamon. This action is the reverse of that of his father: He had changed his original birth name from Amen-hotep to Akhen-aten.
Q) Why no mask in this presentation? Can the mask not leave Egypt anymore?
A) After the last Tut exhibition ended its course in the early 1980s of the last century, it was decided that the gold mask—an iconic piece—would not travel again.
Q) Thank you for bringing a piece of my home in Egypt to my other home here in Houston. What is the most unique item in the exhibition?
A) Many artifacts in the exhibition have unique properties. For example, the majority of them are unique in that they have not traveled to the United States before, and all of the Tut pieces are unique in that they were part of the largest amount of royal burial equipment ever found. Of that material, the Shabti figure is one of the largest ever found.
Tut's golden sandals [slideshow image #3 above] are unparalleled. Tut's chair is the smallest royal throne ever found; his bed was the only type used for royalty ever found. The figure of the god Sened is the only one found in the New Kingdom. In regard to the other artifacts, the statue of Hetep is unique for the reasons given in the next answer, and the same for the colossal figure of Tut [image #2]. The sarcophagus for a royal cat is unparalleled. The terra-cotta head of Amenhotep III is the only one of that type ever discovered.
Q) Why do you think that King Tut's tomb has been the only one discovered whose artifacts had not been plundered like the rest?
A) First, his tomb was not the only tomb discovered with many of its items almost intact. Several tombs at Tanis in the Delta belonging to rulers of the 21st to 22nd Dynasty were also found in almost pristine condition. They, however, were from a later period, not in the Valley of the Kings, and contained fewer objects.
Tut's tomb probably survived due to several factors: It was not the one originally meant for his burial; it was located in an area not generally used for pharaohs of his time period; his name (and those of his father and successor) were removed from the later king lists (so memory of them would cease to exist); and over time, natural occurrences such as torrential rainstorms, mudslides, and later building of workmen's huts over the tomb obscured the location.
Q) With all the unrest in Egypt, how can the Tut collection be secure there? It would be a shame for all the artifacts to be lost forever to vandals or black market.
A) Good question! At this point the security police are in good control of all the museums in Egypt.
Q) I know that Zahi Hawass [author of the exhibition catalogue] is very protective of the ancient Egyptian artifacts and is their protector. How does he feel about these wonderful artifacts touring outside Egypt?
A) As the exhibition has traveled throughout its course, every care has been taken (and continues to be taken) to ensure that the artifacts receive the best treatment to preserve them. All of the Egyptian people feel that these artifacts and all of those from ancient Egypt are part of the legacy of the ancient Egyptians to the world.
Q) Thank you for bringing the King Tut exhibition to Houston. Were there pieces that you just didn't have room for? How did you decide what pieces to use?
A) Every curator would like to exhibit as much as possible! Space is one of the limiting factors; ease of transport is another; condition of the piece is another; and its relevance to the other artifacts counts as well. The amount of space we have at each of the institutions determines how much we can exhibit; the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities makes decisions on what can travel; and the artifacts need to conform to the story line of the exhibition.
Q) How do you feel about King Tut's role as a pop-culture phenomenon? Can you believe the Steve Martin song from the 1970s is still so well known? He even did a new bluegrass version last year!
A) I can believe it, because ancient Egypt itself is a pop-culture phenomenon. Witness the original Mummy movie in 1932—only a decade after the discovery of Tut's tomb—and the many sequels that have followed, into the 21st century.
Q) What about the legendary Curse of King Tut?
A) Real curses did exist, but the King Tut curse is indeed the stuff of legend. In reality, the curse was made up—primarily to sell newspapers!

Thanks to properties like the Twilight franchise it has spawned an attempt to bring every popular book series to life. Some like The Hunger Games have been successful, but others not so much. The latest, Divergent looks to capture that same magic and bring their trilogy to the big screen. The film sports a decent cast including Shailene Woodley, Theo James, Kate Winslet, Miles Teller, Jai Courtney, Zoe Kravitz, Ray Stevenson, Maggie Q, Ashley Judd, and Mekhi Phifer, but can it jump off the pages and onto the big screen to capture the fans appeal or will the book be closed before the final chapter?
Divergent follows a futuristic dystopia where society is divided into five factions that each represent a different virtue, where teenagers have to decide if they want to stay in their faction or switch to another for the rest of their lives. When a young girl makes a choice that surprises everyone she and her fellow faction-members have to live through a highly competitive initiation process to live out the choice they have made. But she has a secret that she is Divergent, which means she doesn't fit into any one group. As she discovers a growing conflict that threatens to unravel her seemingly perfect society, this secret might help her save the people she loves or it might destroy her. As with most of the films in this genre this one follows a pretty generic formula without ever really bringing too much new to the genre. The story is decent enough to keep you engaged and while does have some of the love story element, manages to keep it under wraps a bit as opposed to forcing it on you at nauseum. Most of the cast do a fine job with their roles most notably Jai Courtney playing the tough drill sergeant of sorts for the group. He is probably the only character in the movie that is really cool, but still never really gets to do much other than yell at people. Shailene Woodley does and ok job, but really just seems to be phoning it in and never really sells the overall role.
There is plenty of action here but most of it takes place within them training as a part of this new faction. Essentially that is all that the majority of this film is, just one long training session to build up to a somewhat rushed finale. During this time most of it works fine enough with the exception of the fight sequences that are just horrible. Thankfully later in the film they get a bit better, but never really get as strong as they should be considering the characters. There are some obvious attempts at some originality here in the story, but loses some of its steam with the more clichéd moments that felt like a cop out. There are some aspect that don't make some sense in related to characters suddenly getting out of something that others could not or changing sides suddenly, but not enough to completely ruin the film.
Much like the many others of its kind this film is geared towards the fans of the books and the younger fans, who in turn will likely love it. The run time is way too long than it needed to be and does get a bit slow in parts, but will no doubt be another fan favorite. There is word that they are already in the process of developing the next book in the series Insurgent to a feature film so it will be interesting to see how this one does. Luckily this one ends with an open end, but not so much of a straight cliffhanger so if not it won't feel as incomplete as some others have.

Can we use the Airstream to camp in?
We only hire for corporate and promotional use, but we can recommend some Airstream rentals for camping, get in touch and we will send you their details.
Can we collect it from you?
For insurance and safety we will always deliver to you.
What are the costs?
We prepare all quotes individually but the basic costs to consider are the daily/weekly etc hire fee (it costs less per day the longer you have it) and the charge for delivery and collection. We are very competitive with other Airstream hirers (we think we offer the most value for money, but we would say that huh?!) and there are no hidden costs, all costs are given to you with the quote so you know up front what you are paying for and when.
When do we pay you?
We ask for a deposit with the confirmation of hire, this is usually 25% of the hire charge plus estimated transport costs. The balance is due either before or at the event unless we have made other arrangements with you.
Are you insured for our event?
Yes, we carry public liability insurance and we are happy to send proof of this with confirmation of hire.
Will you set up the Airstream for us?
Yes, for one-day hires we usually stay with the trailer the whole day so that we can help you and make sure there are no problems. We deliver it in good time to have it set up for your event and we do not pack up and take it away until the event has finished.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on your event. We are able to run on our battery and gas supply for most things but obviously if you are hosting a party where you will need the kettle boiled every 10 minutes we will probably need a hook-up. This can be a general extension lead from the nearest source or failing that we can bring a generator if your event permits (think of noise and smells etc…)

On this day in 1984, the action thriller Red Dawn, starring Patrick Swayze, opens in theaters as the first movie to be released with a PG-13 rating.
The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA), which oversees the movie rating system, had announced the new PG-13 category in July of that same year.
Founded in 1922 as a trade group for the American film industry, the MPAA introduced its first-ever movie rating system in November 1968. The system came in response to groups who wanted better guidelines for parents to determine whether or not a movie's content and themes were child-appropriate.
The initial rating categories were G (appropriate for audiences of all ages), M (for mature audiences, but all ages admitted), R (anyone under 16 not admitted without an accompanying adult) and X (no one under 17 admitted). The M category was eventually changed to PG (parental guidance suggested) and on July 1, 1984, the PG-13 category was added to indicate film content with a "higher level of intensity" than PG, according to the MPAA.
So why did Red Dawn rate a PG-13? Simply for its violence. Called "a Republican wet dream manifested into a surrealistic Orwellian nightmare," upon its release Red Dawn was considered the most violent film by the Guinness Book of Records with a rate of 134 acts of violence per hour, or 2.23 per minute.
Despite this, Red Dawn was the 20th highest grossing film of 1984, opening in 1,822 theatres and taking in $8,230,381 on its first weekend. Its box office gross was $38,376,497. National Review Online has named the film #15 in its list of "The Best Conservative Movies.
Starting in 1990, the X rating was changed to NC-17 (anyone 17 and under not admitted) because it was believed that "X" had come to connote hardcore pornography.
1898 – Jack (John Joseph) Haley (actor: The Wizard of Oz, Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm, Alexander's Ragtime Band; died June 6, 1979)
1902 – Norma Shearer (Academy Award-winning actress: The Divorcee [1929-30]; The Barretts of Wimpole Street, Private Lives, Romeo and Juliet; died June 12, 1983)
1913 – Noah Beery Jr. (actor: The Rockford Files, Walking Tall, Seven Faces of Dr. Lao, The Bastard, Fastest Gun Alive, Million Dollar Kid; died Nov 1, 1994)
1914 – Jeff Corey (actor: Color of Night, Conan the Destroyer, Sinatra, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Beneath the Planet of the Apes, The Boston Strangler; died Aug 16, 2002)
1923 – Rhonda Fleming (Marilyn Louis) (actress: Stage Door, The Best of Broadway, Little Egypt, Inferno; operates cancer clinic for women)
1960 – Antonio Banderas (Jos' Antonio Dom'nguez Banderas) (actor: Too Much, Never Talk to Strangers, Assassins, Interview with the Vampire, Philadelphia, Against of the Wind, Law of Desire, Labyrinth of Passion, Los Tarantos, The Mask of Zorro; fashion model: Ralph Lauren, Gucci)
1965 – Claudia Christian (actress: Babylon 5, Dallas, The Calendar Girl Murders, A Wing and a Prayer, The Substitute 3: Winner Takes All, Atlantis: The Lost Empire)
1972 – Angie Harmon (actress: Law & Order, Baywatch Nights, Lawn Dogs, Batman Beyond)

TC TO THOMAS STORY SPEDDING; 25 August 1846; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18460825-TC-TSS-01; CL 21:28-29.
Scotsbrig, Ecclefechan 25 Augt, 1846—
Dear Spedding,
I am here, for a week past or more; with little chance of going farther north; with a tendency rather towards Ireland, and so southward again. There is a kind of half-promise attracting me towards Dublin for a few days; promise which I failed to perform on my way hitherward; which my poor conscience, rather than any hope or other allurement, urges that I ought to endeavour after on my return. My indolence is at present beyond measure; indeed my sufferings from all kinds of travel are such as to inspire a very natural horror at locomotion; a wish, gradually becoming the one wish which swallows all others, To be allowed to lie still. Which wish, I do surely believe, is on the way of being gratified by and by!
Daily I see Skiddaw and the Mountains in unusual clearness; daily I am reminded of your old friendliness to me. Had I the wings of a dove1— But I have no wings; no tolerance for coach-drivers and noisy inns! I sit wishing I could make you a little visit; not much hoping it: I write at any rate to give myself a chance.
Pray tell me if you are at home; how you are off for room; at what hour your Coach leaves Carlisle; what conveyances you have on the Liverpool side,—it is there I could take Dublin by Steam, and perhaps get home by Cork and Bristol. Pray let me hear.— I left my Wife with her friends in Lancashire: I think she hardly meditates coming farther north, but will return shortly to Chelsea with one of her lady Cousins for companion. She was far from well; but seems to be recovering a little since we parted.
Adieu. I ought for many reasons to be the most silent of men. Daily this world and its ways become the more unutterable to me; daily my own small share in it the more Sphinx-like, unfit for the dialects of these days. If the Baconian Philosopher is with you, remember me;2 to Mrs. Spedding at any rate who is sure to be with you.3
Yours ever truly /
T. Carlyle

The focus of my bike work up to this point and in this edition has been on the machine itself. Being just another face in the crowd among thousands of other admirers however this can be a challenge. Lighting is determined by the weather, location and a steady stream of onlookers passing by make it very difficult to capture images with no people in them.
In this edition I attempted to emphasize and intermingle the amazing elements of Florida, a mantra or blending of sorts, based on my inspirations of both nature and art in steel. I often use quotes when displaying images but in this edition decided to let the images speak for themselves.
All of these images are available in print, in any format on online at:

The bids are in and today the Tennessee Department of Transportation identified the apparent lowest bidders on the state's second round of infrastructure projects funded through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
This morning, TDOT officials opened bids from contractors across the state vying to construct 119 projects in 64 Tennessee counties to be funded through the Recovery Act. Bids were immediately posted on the TDOT Web site under Information for Contractors, Bid Lettings, May 8.
the bids included three projects in Rutherford County.
"We are excited to take this next big step toward putting the Recovery Act funds to work in Tennessee," TDOT Commissioner Gerald Nicely said. "Today, our construction engineers will begin carefully reviewing all apparent low bids for accuracy and compliance with departmental guidelines. These 119 Recovery Act projects will mean thousands of Tennesseans will be employed to rebuild our state's vital infrastructure."
Commissioner Nicely has up to 30 days to award contracts for the projects. Once contracts are in place work orders will be issued to the contractors and pre-construction meetings will be set for each project. The public will be able to access information on contract awards by visiting the TDOT web site and clicking Information for Contractors, Bid Lettings, May 8, Contract Awards.
In all, 77 resurfacing projects, 34 bridge projects and 8 other projects funded by the Recovery Act were included in the May 8 letting. The 119 projects include work in 64 counties including 31 projects in TDOT's Region One, 28 projects in Region Two, 28 projects in Region Three, and 32 projects in Region Four (click on links for maps of region). Contracts for some bridge and resurfacing work include multiple projects.

Charlie Haden & Pat Metheny: He's Gone Away
He's Gone Away
Pat Metheny (guitar) and Charlie Haden (bass)
Beyond the Missouri Sky (Verve 314 537 130)
Pat Metheny (guitar), Charlie Haden (bass).
Traditional. Arranged by Charlie Haden and Pat Metheny.
Recorded: New York, 1996
Rating: 93/100 (learn more)
Both Haden and Metheny have mixed it up with Ornette, but don't let that fool you. They both have a traditional side, as shown by this delicately constructed version of an Appalachian folk song. You won't find many jazz tracks more understated or heartfelt than this one. The tempo hovers at the point where strict time almost falls into rubato. No guitarist is better than Metheny at these plaintive, yearning melodies. In a modern era when most guitarists try to make their name with speed and fire, his ability to cut to the essence of a song is worth more than a passel of flashy licks.

Magazine of the painting blogosphere.
David John posts an excerpt from an interview with Arne Glimcher where Glimcher recalls his final conversation with painter Agnes Martin.
Glimcher remarks: "I was there at the end of her life and she said 'go down to the studio, there are three paintings. Hanging on the wall is the one I want to keep, I want you to destroy the other two.' So I went down to the studio. The two paintings she wanted me to destroy were magnificent – absolutely perfect. The one on the wall was a very stormy painting, unlike anything that she had made since the 60s. I certainly didn't want to destroy those two spectacular paintings but I did. I sliced them to ribbons and put them in the trash. When I came back. She said, 'did you do it?' I said, 'I did it.' And that was that. Our last conversation."

Vt. senators push for Saturday mail
Sen. Bernard Sanders, I-Vt., and Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., were part of a group of U.S. senators to introduce a bill Wednesday to preserve Saturday mail delivery.
The measure may provide the Postal Service with new options to make money by permitting services such as notarizing documents, issuing hunting and fishing licenses, and allowing beer and wine shipments, Sanders said.
The legislation, which was simultaneously introduced in the U.S. House by Rep. Peter DeFazio, D-Ore., would also prevent mail-sorting centers and rural post offices from shutting down.
A commission of successful small business and labor representatives would be created to recommend other directions the U.S. Postal Service could pursue to remain relevant in an age of electronic mail.
Sanders said the Senate bill also seeks to repeal a 2006 law that mandated the post office pre-fund 75 years of future health care benefits for retirees over 10 years.MORE IN This Just In

Deos et Mortabilus
Janus felt strong. Stronger than he had felt for years. Even the conversations with his predecessors didn't give him the satisfaction and the feeling of strength he felt now. In his earlier talks with his predecessor he had asked whether a Cusgard is allowed to delve into the rather interesting magical techniques the mortals called the Dark arts.
After all, it was Janus' plight and reason of existence. Learn about mortals and aid them in their struggles. And above all: Let there be peace between them. It felt only logical and natural to Janus that this so-called Dark arts would be a essential piece of his service. How could he understand the mortals and their visions without viewing the darker side of their knowledge? Certainly he would be allowed to learn more about it?
Yet there was a piece of him that didn't feel quite easy with this idea. He wouldn't be the first Cusgard to fall to the seductions of the mortal worlds and it's inhabitants untroubled life, without the pressure of being a divine being who is tasked with the existence of mortal life.
So Janus meditated for a long time and spoke with the man who had been Cusgard before him. They had talked for a long time, and though his predecessor did have some doubts about the Dark arts he allowed Janus to learn them. He did gave a advice: Don't delve too deep in mortal myths and mystiques. The ancient Elves did so, and now they live as cursed beings in the Twisted Realms.
But for Janus, that conversation was long ago. The advice was useless according to him. Now that he had finally found a way to make peace. Maybe even forever...

Award-winning Christian fiction author Janette Oke and her daughter, Laurel Oke Logan have teamed up to create a set of characters any reader of inspirational fiction will enjoy. A special companion story to the Hallmark Channel's "When Calls the Heart" television series, "Where Courage Calls" is the story of Beth Thatcher, a young woman more comfortable in Toronto society who accepts a teaching position on the prairie in West Canada. Fans of historical Christian fiction will enjoy meeting the residents of Coal Valley and seeing how God works in the lives of each member of the novel.
Never having watched the television series on Hallmark which was inspired by Oke's novels, this reader had no way to compare the story of Beth Thatcher, Molly, the school children, nor those involved with the mining operation in the small town to those depicted onscreen. However, the book stands alone with its own merits and watching the television series is not necessary to know and relate to the characters.
Beth Thatcher is convinced that she must go to the primitive western part of Canada to teach school children and no amount of disapproval and discouragement on her mother's part is going to stop her. With the support of her father, Beth embarks on a journey that will not only introduce her to a world she has never experienced, but one in which she is not only teacher, but student as well. From the moment she steps into Coal Valley and sees the down-trodden expressions on the mining widows' faces, the condition many of the children live in and the lack of supplies she must educate the children with, her education begins. The story is similar to the one told by Catherine Marshall in "Christie." Young, privileged woman comes to help the less-fortunate and discovers that she receives much more than she gives.
There are several story threads that keep the novel moving and infuse the situations with a sense of realism. The mining camp where workers are mostly Italian, the need for Beth to find a way to help the community who lost many of their men in a mine explosion without them feeling like it's charity and a childhood friend Beth's who has joined the Royal Canadian Mounted Police all add to the authenticity of the main story. While this isn't a book filled with high suspense and overly dramatic situations, it is one that will leave the reader feeling like their time was well spent. It will also remind readers that God has all in control and that His plan really is the best one.
"Where Courage Calls is published by Bethany House and is available everywhere Christian fiction books are sold.
The Christian Fiction Examiner received a free copy of this book from the publisher.

I bought a Cisco Aironet AIR-AP1231G-A-K9 off of ebay and am having issues with it.
The first and most alarming issue is the cycling of the status lights. I read the manual and it does not show that as a possible state.
Here is a video of the status lights -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubuBkHCuwWg
It does pull an IP address via DHCP on my Sonicwall, but is unreachable via web browser. I pinned out my own console cable, and nothing comes up over the console when done in accordance with the manual.
I tested the power supply and it is making 47.8vdc, and makes 47.8vdc when under load (connected to the Aironet).
It doesn't appear to be broadcasting an SSID, but of course if it is, it would be easy to miss since I don't know what it is (used unit).
Bad unit?
Thanks for your time.

FRESNO, Calif.- Coming off a four-game road trip, the Fresno State women's basketball team opened up a five-game home stand Thursday night with an 82-28 victory over San Diego Christian at the Save Mart Center.
"We told our team that we were going to need to come out and be really aggressive and just get some home mojo going," head coach Raegan Pebley said. "We're home in December a long time and we need to get this started off right."
The 28 points the Bulldogs allowed on Thursday are the fewest by any Mountain West team this season and the fewest allowed by a Bulldog team since Dec. 9, 2008 in a 68-29 victory over Cal State Northridge.
"I was pretty happy with how our team played," Pebley said. "We asked our team not to play to the scoreboard the whole night and to really just play to our potential."
The Bulldogs (4-3) held the Hawks (5-1) to just 22.4 percent shooting while forcing them to turn the ball over 28 times. Fresno State had 17 steals with Raven Fox leading the nine Bulldogs who recorded a steal, as she had four on the night.
Fresno State shot 45.3 percent and saw 11 different players score on the night. Moriah Faulk scored a game-high 13 points off the bench while Alex Furr and Emilie Volk both pitched in with a dozen points.
The 'Dogs out-rebounded SDC 51-27 and scored 25 second-chance points off of 23 offensive rebounds.
Fresno State opened up a 17-0 lead in the first seven minutes of the game, as San Diego Christian missed its first seven shots and the Bulldogs forced six turnovers before the Hawks put any points up on the board.
Jacinta Vandenberg, who finished the game with eight points and eight rebounds, scored six of Fresno State's first 11 points in the game.
After seven-straight points from Robin Draper, which included a 3-pointer from the wing, Fresno State stretched its lead out to 29-2 with 4:30 left in the first half.
The Bulldogs closed out the half by allowing SDC to score only nine points, reminiscent of last season when the Bulldogs held five opponents to under 20 first-half points. The Hawks were just 4-of-24 from the field in the first half with 13 turnovers.
Fresno State hit only four of its first 14 shots to open the second half, but SDC was 2-of-12 in that time.
Volek, who finished with a season-high in points, got the Bulldog offense going with eight points in a four-minute span thanks in part to a pair of 3-pointres. Her second three at 8:18 put Fresno State on top 60-19.
Game No. 2 of the five-game home stand is on Sunday when the Bulldogs host Santa Clara at 2 p.m. in the Save Mart Center.
"Catch the Wave" - ESPN2 790 AM is the home of the Fresno State women's basketball team.

The Sundance Channel has taken some vital steps forward into original programming with The Writer's Room and last year's Emmy and Golden Globe winning miniseries Top of the Lake. But in their first venture into an original series, Ray McKinnon's Rectify, now in the middle of it's second season, they've ventured into their boldest territory yet.
Twenty years ago, Daniel Holden was wrongly convicted of first-degree murder in a Paulie, Georgia and sentenced to death row. After spending more of his life on death row than he did free, his verdict was set aside, and he has been released pending a new trial. His family may be and those involved in the appeal may be the only the people in the entire town who are glad that he is free, and their degree of happiness is decidedly mixed. Amantha, his younger sister (a dark performance by Abigail Spencer) is a vessel of rage against the system, the town, and her own frustrations. She has begun a relationship with Jon Stern, a man with The Innocence Project who was crucial in seeing Daniel's sentence overturned. His mother (J. Smith-Cameron) has been trying to be compassionate and loving--- a hard sell since her first husband died while Daniel was in prison. And his stepfather, Ted and brother-in-law are even more weary of him, while dealing with the failures of their local tire dealership which has been on the verge going under. Ted, Jr. has been the most hostile, particularly unhappy with his wife's closeness to Daniel.
If the family's behavior is complicated, the rest of Paulie is simpler: they still believe Daniel is guilty, and have no intention of making his life easier. The attorney who prosecuted him (Michael O'Neill) is running for public office and wants Holden back on death row, and is enraged that his replacement as a prosecute now wants him to cut a deal. Residents of Paulie have already beaten Daniel so severely, he spent the first two episodes of season 2 in a medically-induced coma. And the local sheriff is torn between his allegiance to duty and the will of the town --- and is enraged when after arresting the men who beat him , Daniel refused to identify them as his assailants for reasons that are still unclear, perhaps even to him
Daniel is trying to find peace in a world that has left him behind in a town that hates him, and it's not easy. A well done episode took place when Daniel went to Atlanta and found some of the peace that he had yet to find in relative anonymity, trying to find simple pleasure from a painting he spent years contemplating. But even now he still finds himself full of constant anger and lack of purpose. The most recent episode took place when he met a local shop owner (good to see Leon Rippy working again) who didn't know who he was and who seemed genuinely interested in his wellbeing, something few people are.
I'm still not sure what direction Rectify has for Daniel, the rest of his family, and the town of Paulie. But the fact is, after years of dealing with crime based dramas and antiheroes, it is refreshing to see a series dealing with human beings and people trying to deal with real life, even if it is under the most heinous of circumstances, and a series that simmer rather than constantly blazes. It continues to demonstrate that the Sundance Channel is definitely headed in the right direction.
Release And Freedom Aren't The Same Thing
The Sundance Channel has taken some vital steps forward into original programming with The Writer's Room and last year's Emmy and Golden Globe winning miniseries Top of the Lake. But in their first venture into an original series, Ray McKinnon's Rectify, now in the middle of it's second season, they've ventured into their boldest territory yet.

Why Supporting MTSU Debate is Important
Debate has enumerable benefits for the young people who participate in it such as increasing critical thinking skills, enhancing communication skills, and sharpening research skills. MTSU has prided itself to offer debaters these benefits for little or no cost and even supporting debaters with small scholarships to help cover the cost ofbooks. However, MTSU Debate like many academic pursuits struggles in these difficult economic times. Travel expenses continue to increase while state funding decreases. We are lucky to have faculty and administrative support, but that does not guarantee funding at the level necessary to provide a world-class program.Support from alumni and the community can help insure that MTSU Debate continues to grow and thrive. There are many ways to give and every little bit helps!
Individual Giving: There are many ways that you can help support MTSU Debate and MTSU debaters. You can give to one of the existing scholarships (see below) or create a new scholarship in your or someone else's name.

For the week of
December 18, 2009
- carolinajournal.com
Reaction of the Week
RALEIGH — Mike Easley's longtime legal aide and
law partner, Ruffin Poole, ducked a State Board of Elections' subpoena
Thursday by pleading the Fifth Amendment, the second time since October
that Poole has avoided testifying before the board about his
relationship with the former governor, reports Carolina Journal.
The elections board subpoenaed Poole to testify at a hearing on
Easley's campaign finances in late October. Poole had the subpoena
quashed by a Wake County Superior Court judge on the basis of an
undisclosed privilege. The N.C. Court of Appeals later ruled that he
would have to appear before the board.
Poole took the stand at the board's headquarters in downtown Raleigh
shortly before 4 p.m. Thursday. As Poole was being sworn in by
elections board Chairman Larry Leake, his attorney, Joseph Zeszotarski,
again said his client wouldn't answer questions.
Leake, a Democrat from Mars Hill, threatened to throw Poole into Wake
County jail if he refused to disclose his full reasons for not
"I believe that our request for him to testify is in fact lawful," Leake said.
CJ: Cowell implements stricter ethics rulesRALEIGH — State Treasurer Janet Cowell told her employees in March,
about two months after she'd been sworn in, that they and future
employees couldn't do business with or lobby the treasurer's office for
a year after they'd left their jobs.
CJ: Taxpayer-funded local elections on agendaGREENSBORO — Voters should expect the debate over taxpayer-funded municipal elections to heat up over the next year.
A bill allowing municipalities with more than 50,000
residents to consider the option of taxpayer-funded elections will more
than likely be considered in the North Carolina Senate in the upcoming
short session.
CJ State appeals court tosses W-S loitering lawRALEIGH — The state's second highest court has thrown out
Winston-Salem's loitering ordinance as unconstitutional. In finding the

ordinance did not require proof of criminal intent.
CJ: Hookah Bliss owner will defy smoking banCHAPEL HILL — The owner of a Chapel Hill hookah
bar says he will defy the state's new smoking ban that has ensnared his
business but exempted other types of smoking establishments. Adam
Bliss, owner of Hookah Bliss, believes the ban is discriminatory. He
will continue to sell hookahs and alcohol beginning Jan. 2, the day it
becomes illegal to smoke in most North Carolina bars and restaurants.
Judge: Sex-offender law unconstitutionally vaguePITTSBORO — A North Carolina law that limits sex offenders' ability to

Capital Quotes
"You know how angry and in disbelief I've been all day. This is not how government and the courts are supposed to work for people."— Gov. Bev Perude, as quoted by the Raleigh News & Observer, commenting on a ruling by Superior Court Judge Ripley Rand that the Department of Correction had misinterpreted its own guidelines in the cases of two inmates serving 80-year long "life" sentences for murder. Rand ordered their release, finding that they had fully served their sentences for the crimes they committed in the mid-1970s.
"It's not as bad as Detroit but it's down there."— Howard Wial, an analyst with the Brooking Institution, describing to the Greensboro News & Record the the Greensboro-High Point area's economic performance over the past three years.
"This thing was botched by the Planning Department, botched all the way through, botched from start to finish."— Superior Court Judge Howard Manning, as quoted by the Durham Herald-Sun, opening a hearing on Durham's 2006 decision to remove watershed-buffer restrictions on a piece of land next to Jordan Lake. Manning ruled despite the flawed process, the removal of the watershed buffer should stand.
"You know that if you are going to run for office your life is going to be much more public. This is just a little more public than I expected."— Newly sworn-in Asheville City Council Member Cecil Bothwell, talking to the Asheville Citizen-Times about the publicity he's gotten since the Citizen-Times and Associated Press ran stories over a potential lawsuit challenging Bothwell's fitness to serve abecause he's an atheist. The N.C. Constitution bars those that "deny the being of Almighty God" from holding public office. This provision is, however, almost certainly unenforceable as the U.S. Constitution prohibits religious tests for political office.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Countrybunny Gorgeous! Hi everyone :) I bought two of these rugs and rug pads online. All I can say is that they are absolutely stunning! They looked so great in every room, but I finally settled on one of the a guest bedrooms because of the smaller size. They seem very sturdy and I can't see how they will ever show dirt or lint. The silvery, whitish strands are very subtle, and go well in my woodsy country home, but would also look great in my modern condo as well. Very transitional rug. The texture is really pretty. Do not hesitate to purchase this rug :) I wish World Market would sell a bigger full room size though :( I will buy it when you do!!! I may have to buy another and have them all sewn together....

Grant McFadden, Ph.D.
Viral Immune Invasion
Dr. Grant McFadden's scientific expertise is on the nature of how viral pathogens interact with the host immune system. His lab studies the mechanisms that determine the tropism and host range of viruses for host species and they are examining the molecular basis operative when poxviruses cause zoonotic infections in man. They are developing specific viruses as novel candidates for the oncolytic treatment of human cancers, and have already successfully treated neural gliomas in mouse models of glioblastoma using this strategy. This work has led to collaborations with companies interested in pathogen countermeasures (Myriad Corp) and oncolytic virotherapy (Wellstat Corp). These projects have convinced Dr. McFadden that the continued study of pathogens, and in particular the study of the fundamental mechanisms that regulate their emergence and thus dictate how they leap from one host species to another, is itself a new and emerging discipline whose time has arrived. Poxviruses infect a broad spectrum of vertebrate hosts but the basis for the host range specificity exhibited by individual virus isolates is poorly understood. Myxoma virus (MV) is a poxvirus that causes lethal infection only in rabbits, but the mechanism underlying the strict MV species tropism is not known. Like all poxviruses, MV expresses a wide array of immunomodulatory proteins, but relatively few of these are actually rabbit-specific when tested in vitro. In fact, at least one such species-nonspecific immunomodulatory protein derived from MV, SERP-1 is currently in human clinical trials as an anti-inflammatory drug. The lab has investigated the molecular basis for tropism specificity of poxviruses using the MV model system. The study of host tropism by poxviruses thus offers the potential for development of novel platforms for replication-restricted vaccine vectors and oncolytic viruses, but it also likely to produce novel insights into how and why poxviruses can occasionally leap from a long-term evolutionary host species to cause zoonotic infections in humans.

Dr. McFadden is a Professor in the Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology at the University of Florida. He received a B.Sc. degree (Honours Biochemistry) in 1970 and a Ph.D. degree (Biochemistry) in 1975, both from McGill University in Montreal, Canada. In 2001, he was named Canada Research Chair in Molecular Virology and, in 2002, he received the Hellmuth Prize. He was inducted as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada in 2004 and as a Fellow of the American Academy of Microbiology in 2007. In 1997, Dr. McFadden co-founded Viron Therapeutics, Inc. (with Dr. A. Lucas) in London, Ontario to explore the use of viral proteins for therapeutic purposes against inflammatory diseases. He continues to expand the portfolio of viral immune modulating agents that can be derived from the large DNA viruses and current understanding of viral pathogenesis together with immune and inflammation based mechanisms of disease.

They are so inactive they look like statues but when you peer closer you can see a slight movement of the skin and perhaps a blink of an eye. "Herbie " a year old Bearded Dragon gave the small group huddled around him a slight blink as he clungto the shirt front of his owner, Reese Smith.
Petco in Huntersville, North Carolina had a Bearded Dragon contest on Saturday, June 2nd. There was not a large entry field, in fact only 2 showed up. But the curious onlookers and those looking to buy one made the reptiles a big hit .
"They're good listeners" says Reese, the 7 year old owner of Herbie. "They also don't move very much, and they like water, and some sun and they can change color..." his knowledge went on and on and almost matched his enthusiasm.
Herbie has some competition in the form of Boulder, who also made the scene. His owner, Candace Hall, actually got the ribbon for first place. But when she met Reese and Herbie, she thought Boulder wouldn't mind giving up his ribbon to a young man who was so enthusiastic to show off his pet.
Why does an attractive young woman want a Bearded Dragon for a pet?
"I've always wanted one, ever since I graduated. It's just the kind of pet that suits me." Hall replied .
And apparently they suit many, www.reptilechannel.com says they are the most popular reptile pets in the country .
Petco had a care sheet on display for those interested . Bearded Dragos like simple things; like plants, mealworms, moss , and of course heat and humidity. They come from Australia and average about a foot long in length.
According to www.peteducation.com, these reptiles are one of the few species of lizards that are naturally tame, and really aren't interested in running away from humans.
Rising 6th grader Jack Flynn is a good example of their friendliness. He was in the store buying his first Bearded Dragon. The four legged "pogona vitticeps" just took to his palm as if he was the only one in the store that mattered. And that made Flynn sport a wide grin.
He had been saving up for the pet and was thrilled to pick out his new sidekick. "It's great," he beamed, "he's the greatest."
Although buying the lizards themselves is not too pricey, about $60.00 to $80.00 each, there are a list of supplies that go with the pet that can add up. It's always good to pick up a care sheet that also lists supplies at the store where you purchase the pet.
Also check out www.herpcenter.com for more information on Bearded Dragons as well as rescue groups who have them up for adoption.
These laid back lizards are going to be around awhile,some can live to be 15 years old, and that makes the pet industry happy and busy keeping pet owners coming back for more .
Reese will be back to the store to bring Herbie and maybe even Jack will show up even without a Bearded Dragon contest. These pets are a draw for all who see them .

Comments about 'Jury finds activist Tim DeChristopher guilty of both charges'
- Oldest first
- Newest first
- Most recommended
Tim DeChristopher is looking at spending time in a federal prison if convicted,
and there is not parole in the federal system. They do have a good behavior
early release which shaves perhaps 15% of the sentence.
Claiming ignorance of the law was his only option and most juries won't buy it.

I think this phase of the trial is a no_brainier. He admitted he broke the law,
knew he was breaking the law, and was willing to accept the consequences...
That's the definition of "Guilty". So that's not the issue.
The real issue is... what will his punishment be?
That's where it will get interesting.
IMO they should make sure the people who were damaged financially are restored (with a fine his fanclub can help pay) and then give him a slap on the wrist for his violation (token time in jail to teach him that civilized society doesn't accept people deciding their passion nullifies the rule_or_law).
I just hope he can use the time in jail to balance himself and find LAWFUL ways to help his cause... and reject unlawful ways of protesting.
I hope if he gets time in jail he won't use that time to become MORE radicalized and determined to step over the line again if he gets the chance.
I would hope that early_Parole would be based upon proof that he's learned this lesson. I wouldn't release him if he still thinks his cause nullifies the law.

So he was found guilty. I guess his defense attorney's reference to seeing "tears" in his friends eyes wasn'yt enough to convince the jury that illegal behavior is OK when your friend is weeping.

You can rationalize your way to hell- or a Federal Prison.

I smell a rat with the media and the phone. I have no doubt that this could be
used as reason to have the verdict thrown out and retried. I am not an attorney,
so don't take this as gospel. I think we have all seen over the years very lame
reasons why cases are thrown out. I remember the case of a person being tried
for fraud, as they defendent walked out of the courtroom an older lady
said,"Poor man!" When they got back in after the recess the defense
pointed this out, the judge had the lady thrown out and it was later used in an
attempt to have the conviction overturned.
Who knows but it makes me nervous.

Time for a big fine for the Sierra Club. This self-righteous do-gooder thinks
he has done a good thing. And listening to his emotional friends outside the
courthouse will not help him get his head screwed on right.
Bottom line: The destruction of Rule of Law is much more harmful to the world we live in than ANY POSSIBLE HARM drilling on a few marginal parcels of land would have caused. Props to the jury for finding this criminal guilty. Now for the fine and the time! I hope he likes wearing stripes or orange!
