Al Toon wanted to be careful.
Toon, a former Pro Bowl receiver whose son Nick was selected in the fourth round of the NFL draft last month by the Saints, didn't want to put too much pressure on his son. Al tried his best to keep his own football accomplishments from Nick, worried that he'd be placing mounting expectations on his son.
"My philosophy behind this whole 'football, kid following in your footsteps thing' is that I felt that I had to be very careful, because I didn't want him to feel like I was pushing him into the game. So I never put out or put out in presentation of any of my trophies or jerseys, although actually I did hang one of my jerseys," Al Toon said.
"But I didn't hang a lot of my stuff up because I didn't want him to get the subliminal message that it's all about football. I wanted him to develop that passion and desire for football. So what I did when he was younger was let him play little league, you know. I wanted him to develop a skill set across the board, be more balanced and become a great person, and then he had to decide whether he wanted to play football."
Nick Toon did decide to play football and to follow his dad to the University of Wisconsin and then into the NFL. When the Saints drafted Nick Toon, a playmaking receiver who out-performed his father in college, they added him to a suddenly growing number of second-generation Saints players.
Nick Toon joined Saints' 2011 first-round picks Cameron Jordan, a defensive end, and Mark Ingram, a running back, as players who followed their fathers into the NFL.
But Steve Jordan, Cameron's dad, believes this is more anomaly than trend.
"I think it's more the luck of the draw," he said of the Saints' three second-generation players in two years. "The guys I played with over the years, their kids are beginning to be college-age. In the overall scheme of things I'm not sure that the numbers of the guys, the veteran-type guys who played a number of years who have kids (in the NFL), that number is small."
Although the Saints haven't made a concerted effort to add second-generation NFL players to the roster in the past two drafts, they have noted that bringing in players with an NFL pedigree has some advantages.
"I've had a lot of them over the years," Saints interim coach Joe Vitt said. "I just don't think an NFL locker room is foreign to them. They've gone to work with their dads and have come to Saturday practices, and it just seems like it's not too big for them.
"I can't say that as a general rule, but it's kind of the way I've been around it. It's in the family. It's in their blood. Every Thanksgiving they're watching football and watching bowl games. It's just the way they were raised. I think it's exciting."
Cameron Jordan said by the time he was drafted, he had already been schooled on the rigors of the NFL. After spending years with his dad hanging around the locker room of the Minnesota Vikings, he was comfortable from the first time he entered Saints headquarters.
"I can definitely relate to my childhood when I was running and jumping around in an NFL locker room," Cameron Jordan said. "But now I have to be a lot more serious."
Steve Jordan, a former All-Pro tight end, said the sons of former NFL players aren't destined to make the professional ranks simply because of genetics.
It's obvious, he said, that it takes hard work to hone the athletic skills passed down by their dads.
"Talent is only going to get you so far," Steve Jordan said. "After that it really is about your whole approach to the game, your ability to understand the plays, buy the techniques that you are learning.
"But you do have that advantage in terms of growing up around a guy who has been in that business."
Although Steve Jordan enjoyed a 13-year career with the Minnesota Vikings, making six Pro Bowls and garnering All-Pro honors three times, Cameron didn't gravitate immediately to football. Growing up, he played mostly basketball. His mother wouldn't let him play football until the eighth grade.
But he soon blossomed into a stud athlete, emerging as one of college football's top defensive linemen during the 2010 season at California.
He's quick to give his father credit for helping him develop, as well as transition into the NFL, earning a starting spot at left defensive end in his rookie season.
"Without him, especially with the year I came in, I probably would have been a little bit lost," Cameron Jordan said. "I definitely relied on him a lot.
"My dad has probably been in every position I've been in and every position I might be in. So I rely on his knowledge a lot. I feel like I am a little more blessed than others, a little more fortunate to have a father like mine who I can rely on him and know he is talking from experience."
Mark Ingram also leaned heavily on his father, Mark Sr., a former standout receiver with the New York Giants. Coming out of high school, Mark was a star baseball player but decided to follow his dad's path and play football.
It apparently was the right choice. He won the Heisman Trophy at Alabama and became the second of two first-round picks of the Saints last year.
Nick Toon wanted to follow in his father's footsteps so much that he attended the same college, refusing to shy away from comparisons.
"My dad was a great football player," said Nick Toon, who is taking part in the Saints' rookie camp this weekend. "I don't think anyone would debate that. To go to the same school and play the same position, I think is a challenge. At the same time, I think that the expectations of that challenge follow you to anywhere you are playing football.
"Maybe the pressure, or whatever you want to call it, was greater at the University of Wisconsin. I had a great time there. I enjoyed my time at Wisconsin. I would do it again if I had to make the decision all over again."

The Charleston Bead Show, by Intergalactic Bead Shows, was held Sept. 7th and 8th, 2013 at the Omar Shrine Temple in Mt. Pleasant, SC, and it was a great show. This was an unusual opportunity for antique collectors, shopping to replace parts of antique or retro jewelry. Jewelry makers of all types of jewelry were there.
Many dealers were there with every kind of gem, faceted in every kind of way, just natural, or round. There was every color imaginable, and every shade. There was also amber and coral. There were pearls in every color and size.
One of the dealers is from Pendleton, SC, Mirwise Wardak. He had a lot of Roman glass. Dev Mishra of Purity Beads from Charlotte, NC, had some of the finest gems there. His website is www.puritysilverbbeads.com.
The large display of Calvin Ng of New York was in the very back. Bead Plus Silver is his company. Unfortunately, like so many of the dealers there, he does not have a website. The unusual thing about these shows, is you have to get it while you can, because if you miss out, you just have to wait until the next show. Even the main exhibit by Beads of Cambay had much better prices than their website, www.beadsofcambay.com. Their next show in Charleston, SC may be in May, 2014. People should go to their website to verify their show dates. It is an educational experience and you can save a lot on things you may have thought you could never afford.

How to Get Rid of Plantar Warts (Verrucas)
Three Methods:Treating Plantar Warts at HomeHaving a Doctor Treat Your Plantar WartsIdentifying and Preventing Plantar WartsCommunity Q&A
Warts are small and thick benign growths on the skin that are caused by a virus. Plantar warts occur on the bottom of the foot, which makes them very uncomfortable to walk on, it feels like there is a stone in your shoe. They are often on the area of your feet that experiences the most pressure, which may drive the wart to grow flat but deeper under the skin. Most of the time plantar warts do not require the care or treatment of a physician. Following a few simple steps at home you can treat the warts you have and prevent more from occurring.
Method 1
Treating Plantar Warts at Home
1Recognize the limits of home remedies. Although treatments at home are effective, they will usually take several weeks or a couple of months to be effective. If you want your warts to disappear faster, it's best to seek the care of your doctor.
- Plantar warts will often disappear on their own and will not leave a scar. However, this can take several months to happen. The warts will be painful and it will be difficult to walk in the meantime.[1]
2Prepare your plantar wart before treatment. Soften the top of the wart by soaking your foot in warm water for several minutes. Then take the excess skin off the top with a pumice stone or nail file. Be sure that you don't use this stone or file for anything else, ever.
- Removing the top layer of dead skin will help the product to go deeper into the wart.
3Try a salicylic acid treatment. There are a variety of topical (on the skin) over-the-counter products, such as Compound W, that treat plantar warts using salicylic acid. [2] Treatments come as liquid, gel or patches. Follow the directions on the package to successfully remove your plantar wart.
- Salicylic acid treatments are not painful but can take several weeks for full results to appear.
4Try duct tape.[3] Duct tape should be cut to the size of the wart and placed over the top of it for up to 6 days. This helps the area to dry out. On the seventh day, remove the tape, soak the foot for five minutes in warm water to soften the dead skin on the top, and then use a pumice stone or nail file to buff off the top layers of the wart. Replace the duct tape for another six days.
- Do not use the pumice stone or nail file for any other purpose.
- This process can take several weeks to see results.
5Investigate home freezing compounds.[4] The freezing process works to close off the blood supply to the wart. There are nonprescription medications you can use at home to freeze the wart, including Compound W Freeze Off and Dr. Scholl's Freeze Away. Follow the directions on the product you are using.
- Freezing at home will be uncomfortable and some will consider it painful. A doctor can use a local anesthetic to freeze the wart deeper.
6Determine if it's time for a physician's care. While plantar warts are often treated successfully at home, there are times when you may need treatment from your physician.[5] Visit your doctor if any of these complications occur:
- If the wart does not go away after treatment. If it appears to go away but returns quickly.
- If the wart grows larger quickly or appears to cluster. In this case it may be a Mosaic wart.
- If the wart starts bleeding or you have more pain after treatment.
- The area becomes red, swollen, or starts draining pus. This indicates that the area has become infected.
- If you are a diabetic, have peripheral vascular disease or coronary artery disease. If you suffer from these medical conditions it is important that you do not treat your plantar warts at home but get them treated from a podiatrist who will monitor your peripheral vascular supply to the feet. These conditions increase the risk of infection or tissue death because of poor blood supply.
Method 2
Having a Doctor Treat Your Plantar Warts
1Talk with your doctor about stronger acid peels. Salicylic acids sold over-the-counter are peeling agents used to reduce the size of the wart. When home treatments are not effective, your physician can use stronger acid peels including bichloracetic acid or trichloroacetic acid.[6]
- These treatments require several return visits and you may be asked to use salicylic acid between doctor treatments.
2Discuss Cryotherapy with your doctor.[7] Similar to using a freezing compound at home, cryotherapy uses liquid nitrogen to freeze the wart tissue. After the treatment, a blister forms, heals, and then falls off, taking with it all or part of the wart.
- This option is painful and not generally used on young children. Your physician may use a local anesthetic depending upon the size of the area being treated.
- Cryotherapy can require several sessions with your doctor for full effectiveness.
3Talk with you physician about laser treatments.[8] There are two laser procedures used for wart removal. In the the first, the laser cuts the growth away from the skin and in the other, the laser cauterizes the blood vessels that feed the wart, killing it.
- Laser surgery can be painful and may require a more longer time period for healing. It is done on an outpatient basis using local anesthesia.
4Discuss the use of immunotherapy with your doctor.[9] In this process, the doctor will use an intralesional injection of antigens into the wart. In other words, they inject toxins into the wart that stimulate your immune system to fight the virus.
- This treatment is reserved for warts that are stubborn or have been very resistant to other treatment modalities.
5Discuss surgical options if your wart has not responded to other types of treatments.[10] Podiatrists may choose to use a technique that involves cutting away the wart. The doctor uses electric needles to kill the tissue around the wart and entirely remove the wart. The process can be painful and often results in scar tissue. However, it is effective and often has successful long-term results.
- NEVER try to cut away a wart at home. This can lead to bleeding and infection when it isn't done with the proper tools and in a sterile environment.
Method 3
Identifying and Preventing Plantar Warts
1Figure out if you are at risk of acquiring plantar warts. The wart is the result of exposure to human papillomavirus (HPV). There are over 120 different strains of HPV, only 5 to 6 of which are responsible for plantar warts.[11] The virus is caught through exposure to skin scales that are infected by the virus.[12]
- Athletes who shower in common areas are at higher risk due to the increased number of people who use an area, usually without protection over the feet. For instance, swimmers, both indoor and outdoor during the summer months, are at increased risk if they use communal showers and tiled areas around the pool. However, this includes all individuals who use a gym area locker room, shower cubicles, or hot tub areas where people normally walk barefoot.
- Individuals who have cracked or peeling skin on the feet give the virus good entry into the body. Also, individuals whose feet remain moist or sweaty throughout the day will have an increased risk as the skin breaks down from overexposure to moisture increasing the risk the virus can gain entry to the body.
- Individuals who have had plantar warts once are at higher risk for having them again.[13] For instance, individuals who pick at a wart can spread the virus more easily to other parts of the body.
- Individuals who have a compromised immune system from illnesses such as mononucleosis, Epstein-Bar virus, cancer, cancer treatments used for individuals with psoriatic arthritis, or individuals with HIV or AIDS.[14]
2Look at the area you suspect is a plantar wart. It should be a small area of skin that is hard and flat with a rough surface and defined boundaries. Although a plantar wart may start out looking like a callus, warts are caused by an infection. There are two ways the plantar wart may infect your foot: either as a solitary wart or as a cluster, called mosaic planter warts.[15]
- A solitary or single wart will increase in size and may eventually multiply into several solitary warts that are satellites of the original wart.
- Mosaic plantar warts are a cluster of warts without clear skin between them. They are not satellites of each other, but rather grow very closely together and appear to be one rather large wart. Mosaic warts are more difficult to treat than solitary warts.
3Assess secondary symptoms. Is the area painful? While plantar warts may look like calluses on the bottom of the feet, they are painful when standing and are painful when they are squeezed.[16]
- Look for black specks inside the thickened skin. These are often called wart "seeds" but are actually small clotted blood vessels inside the wart.[17]
4Watch for spreading. Warts are contagious between people and on your own body. Three small plantar warts on the bottom of your foot can quickly spread to 10 satellite warts, making the situation more difficult to treat.
- As with most medical conditions, the earlier you find a wart and start treatment the easier it is to experience successful results.
5Prevent another infection of plantar warts. After treatment and resolution you are more at risk for another infection with HPV, which causes plantar warts. To begin with, wear flip flops or other waterproof shoes in public areas, showers, locker rooms, saunas, pools and hot tubs. Also, keep your feet clean and dry. Change your socks daily and use a foot powder if your feet are unusually sweaty.
- Use coconut oil on your feet in the evening before bed to prevent cracked and peeling skin. Use a pair of clean socks after applying a dime size amount of coconut oil to each foot.
6Do not spread your warts to others. Do not scratch or pick at a wart you already have. This can spread it to other parts of your body or to others.
- Do not touch other people's warts and do not wear socks or shoes from other people.
- Wear flip flops or other waterproof shoes in the shower at home when you have warts to prevent the spread to other family members.
- Keep clothing, towels and socks off the floor of public locker room and pool areas.
Community Q&A
Is there a method I can use when duct tape didn't work for my warts on my toes?wikiHow ContributorYou can get special adhesive bands/Band Aids for plantar warts and they come with medicine. Just remember that it can take a long time and it can be painful.
Can warts infect the entire foot?wikiHow ContributorWarts rarely cover the whole surface of your foot. Warts are caused a viral infection and you usually get them from a wart virus cell spreading into your bloodstream through a small cut or the like. You may get clusters or many on one foot but with the right treatment, you should be able to get rid of them.
What can I do about a plantar wart if no over-the-counter medications work and my doctor won't look at it or refer me to someone who will?wikiHow ContributorTry nail polish, It sounds insane but it works. Cover the wart and edges with top coat every day, then in the evening peel it off. After the first day the edges of the wart should start peeling away from the sides. After doing this for a week, apply two coats of nail polish and peeled the entire wart away without pain.
Can I catch plantar warts (verrucas) from nail fungus?wikiHow ContributorNo, plantar warts are caused by viruses, which are different from fungi. Plantar warts are more likely to appear where the skin is broken or compromised.
- Change your socks daily and keep your feet clean and dry to both prevent recurrence and during treatment of plantar warts.
- Use flip flops or other types of waterproof shoes in public locker rooms, showers, and around the outside of pool areas, saunas, and hot tubs.
- Never try to cut out a plantar wart at home. It can result in bleeding and infection.
- You can't get warts from touching frogs or toads.[18]
- If you have diabetes, coronary artery disease, or peripheral vascular disease have your plantar warts treated by a podiatrist, who is a doctor that specializes in the feet.[19]

A business associate visited Corning recently and stayed at the Rosewood Inn. Upon her arrival, I was invited to take a tour of the Inn as well. Though I have lived and worked in the Corning area for over 25 years, I must admit I have never been inside. Suzanne was a wonderful host and invited me to join my guest the next morning for breakfast. I arrived at 8:30 to join my associate and a couple from NYC. We all enjoyed a delightful meal and the company of a gracious hostess. I will highly recommend all to stay at the Rosewood. Thanks Suzanne for allowing me to visit your inn.

Happy Anniverary to us. We picked the perfect place to celebrate. The Rosewood Inn is all and more than it says it will be. The location was perfect making you feel as though you were back in time. The inn with its charming interior to match the era of the 1800s homestead was just too special. And, when you are in a setting so "antique" you must admit the one thing you want to be up to date is the bathroom..and it was in each of the seven(maybe 6) rooms. Sitting on the side porch drinking lemonade and those cookies were so relaxing. The dining room and the parlor were breathtaking visions of the past and our wonderful host Suzanne added the personal touches that one could never expect anywhere else. Beautifully set table with scrumptious, well presented food made for easy conversation between guests. We loved it, we love Stewart & Suzanne Sanders and we loved the opportunity to meet new and exciting people in an elegant Victorian setting. Mark & Nita

We would highly recommend the Rosewood Inn as the place to stay in Corning, NY. We were impressed with the cleanliness, hospitality of our hostess Suzanne, beautifully decorated bedroom, delicious breakfast, and quiet sunporch for lemonade and/or peaceful reading. The inn is located on a quiet street, but very near sites, restaurants, etc. It was very easy to get on and off the interstate. Suzanne recommended the restaurant we chose and we were very pleased. Do not miss this lovely inn.

We planned a four day weekend getaway and found the Rosewood Inn online. What a treasure! Sue and Stew made us feel as though the Rosewood were our home away from home. They were warm and welcoming, but understood that we also wanted some time to ourselves. Sue helped us discover lots of things to do and see in the area, provided menus and recommendations for local restaurants, and her own inside information about Corning. Stew prepared the most wonderful breakfast feasts all three mornings. As they said, "If you need lunch, we're not doing our job!" Our accommodations were attractive and comfortable, and provided those "you're at home" touches you never find in a regular hotel. The location is ideal, and within walking distance of Corning's Gaffer District with its shops and restaurants. If you want a warm, wonderful and relaxing place to stay, please try the Rosewood!

After a very long day with numerous problems, Rosewood Inn was recommended to me from another hotel as my original hotel I was to stay at made a mistake and literally had "no rooms at the inn" and no hotel in the vicinity was able to accomodate me. I called the Rosewood Inn and talked to Suzanne the owner/innkeeper who treated me like a queen! I would recommend this beautiful inn to anyone when making their way to Corning, NY. Thanks again for making my stay so perfect -- Judy H from Pittsburgh, PA

Case Details
Defendant Epps initially came into contact with the victim through Myspace. In September 2008, Epps recruited the victim, who was 16 at the time, to travel from her home in Solano County to Sacramento to work for him as a prostitute. Epps prostituted the victim for approximately three weeks in October 2008. He used escort service websites to advertise the victim for commercial exploitation in a hotel in the Sacramento area. Epps also took the victim to a tattoo parlor to have his street named tattooed on her arm. During this period the victim earned between $9,000 and $10,000, all of which she turned over to Epps.
The case was uncovered when a federal vice task force working a sting spotted Epps with the victim outside a motel and noted the victim's youthful appearance.

It's hard to watch "Charlie Bartlett" and not think of Ferris Bueller.
The star of this new-to-DVD dramedy and Ferris have plenty in common – mass teenager appeal and buck-the-system bona fides – but come from starkly different generations. Not sure how many teens were popping pills back in the '80s, or at least opening talked about doing that.
"Charlie Bartlett" tries to be the movie for today's addled high schoolers but doesn't come anywhere near the greatness that is "Ferris Bueller's Day Off."
My Pop Matters review goes into more detail about this unconventional teen comedy.

Mike- I just installed a D-Link DI-60 broadband Cable/DSL router, fed by the modem supplied by the cable company. It seems quite versatile, having a pass-through ability that's really convenient. I was going to put a Linux router in that position, but there is an advantage to the D-Link: I can ssh directly to my server rather than having to log into the Linux router, then ssh again to reach the server. You can selectively block/admit protocols/ports -- or -- configure a complete pass-through to ONE computer in a DMZ zone: i.e. it will pass any stream directed to the network address to that machine. Since no manual came with the modem, this seemed like an easy solution. For $35 it was irresistible ! -Bill > Thanks, > > Mike caersidi "at" sdf.lonestar.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org ;)

Morsi's Election Highlights Egyptian Views of Islam's Role in New Democracy
The declaration of Mohamed Morsi as Egypt's first freely elected president marks a major milestone for a country that until February 2011 had spent nearly three decades under the authoritarian rule of Hosni Mubarak. At the same time, for significant numbers of Egyptians, Morsi's relatively narrow victory over former Prime Minister Ahmed Shafiq has the potential to raise questions about Islam's role in society.
Egyptians Remain Optimistic, Embrace Democracy and Religion in Political Life
A year after the ouster of Hosni Mubarak, a new nationwide survey finds that Egyptians remain upbeat about the course of the nation and prospects for progress. Most Egyptians continue to support democracy, and most also want Islam to play a major role in society.
Chapter 4. Role of Islam in Politics
Most Egyptians continue to believe that Islam is playing a positive role in their country's politics, although the percentage who say its role is negative has increased from a miniscule 2% in 2010 to 25% today. Egyptians clearly want Islam to play a role in shaping the nation's laws – indeed, a majority says Egypt's […]
Egyptians Embrace Revolt Leaders, Religious Parties and Military, As Well
Egyptians of all ages, from all walks of life, and parts of the country continue to celebrate the dramatic political changes their nation has undergone. Overwhelmingly, they say it is good that former president Hosni Mubarak is gone. Nearly two-in-three are satisfied with the way things are going in Egypt, and most are optimistic about their country's future.
Chapter 2. Views Toward Key Leaders, Groups, and Institutions
Still optimistic about the changes that have transformed their country's politics, most Egyptians offer positive opinions about the key players in the uprising that toppled President Hosni Mubarak. In particular, the military is overwhelmingly popular, as is its chief, Field Marshal Mohamed Tantawi. But Egyptians also give high marks to a disparate set of leaders […]

Madonna and Jesus, Back in Town!
And they're eating!
We thought we'd heard the last from newly signed Ford model Jesus Luz after Madonna left him behind to go after an even younger prize over in Malawi, but not so! The pop star met up with her Brazilian boy toy again in Manhattan this week, according to the London Sun:
[The pair] tucked into some Italian nosh at Morandi before leaving separately, only to link up once more in the back of Madge's waiting car. Earlier in the evening, they were seen leaving the Kabbalah center, once again avoiding being pictured together. The pair have yet to confirm whether or not they are still an item, but the Brazilian model is certainly a dab hand at perking up his reported missus following her recent adoption woe.
We have no idea what a "dab hand" is, but it sounds like exactly the kind of thing you'd want a 22-year-old hunk of Brazilian beef to do to you.

Connie Miller, a teacher at Moss Middle in Bowling Green, has learned she'll receive the Council for Exceptional Children's Clarissa Hug Teacher of the Year Award.
This is a national award and as part of the application process she had to submit a portfolio with her teaching strategies.
Miller uses different methods to teach her Special Education classes at Moss Middle.
She says: "I use different strategies to make things interesting for myself. I like trying new things."
One of her strategies is video teaching, where her students see themselves performing different tasks.
Miller says: "I believe all students can learn as long as you introduce the strategies they need to learn."
She's even been able to teach her students to read with the new method. She says: "I believe all of us are vision oriented and we learn best by seeing a model."
If her students aren't picking something up, Miller takes it upon herself to find a new way to teach them.
She says: "I've always felt like if they're not learning something it's because I haven't figured out the right strategy to use for them."
Besides working in the classroom, Connie says the school as a whole has been accepting toward her students.
She says: "We try to give every student regardless of their disability the access to the general curriculum in the mode of communication they need."
Miller says her greatest hope for her students is that they are all contributing members to their communities as they grow older.
She will receive the award at the CEC's annual convention in April.
Last year she was named the Kentucky CEC's Teacher of the Year.

Since civilization discovered science, man has depended on scientists for answers to the mysteries of life. They translate observed data to them. Man asks inwardly, "How did I come into being?" He also asks, this time outwardly, "How did this world come into existence?" Scientists give different answers. Physicists, who are at the cutting edge of this endless quest for the ultimate answers, pose as man's principal translators in deciphering the vast amounts of data gathered by super advanced scientific equipment.
Their theories of the origin of the universe all wrapped up and summarized in terms of mathematical equations are indeed impressive. Many highly educated people embrace their theories as laws, revering them as gospel truths. The most popular nowadays seems to be the Bing Bang Theory, which gives a lot of atheists and evolutionists a certain smug confidence in their deliberations and a smirk in their smiles when they confront believers who revere and worship the Creator-God.
Different cultures, without the aid of science, have come up with their own ideas, which defined their core faith systems. If we compare the answers provided by different religions and diverse cultures with those from science, there obviously is a great divide. People just go with whomever provides the "best" translation of what they see around them and somehow a faith system worth adhering to would be set in place. Some do not even get the opportunity to choose the 'best" one from among so many because it is shoved into their heads by sheer force or false persuasion or mysteriously fermented in there by default.
No matter how great the divide is, sometimes there are little overlaps that may astound anyone.
For example, physicists will tell you that mathematically they can prove the existence of many parallel universes. Well, the Bible speaks of at least three: heaven, the universe where earth is found, and hell.
The Bible tells us that there is only one universe, in the midst of His manifold creations, that really matters. That universe is where He lives. We do not know where it is. Some day those He loves and who love Him will go there and live with Him forever. It is nice to know that we live only in a temporary abode called planet earth where He is teaching us the divine forms, ways and manners of love. He gives us hope that our life on earth has a purposeful continuation beyond it. Contrary to that promise, evolutionists teach that when we die we will deconstruct into elementary particles. And that's it. Not much of a promise, is it? Many people get suckered into this false translation (or rejection) of a gospel truth.
As believers grounded in His Word, we must not let the earth become a Babel's wasteland. We must speak out and become God's best translators of the loving truths His Son died for.
For scripture reference:
Colossians 1:15-20

So, 2010 came and went and we didn't get La-Mulana on WiiWare, despite it being the original plan. Hopefully 2011 serves us better — Nigoro has submitted the code to Nintendo once more and hopes this time it will stick.
"The development of LA-MULANA seems to end this time," the La-Mulana staff wrote on the game's blog. "We will submit the mastering data (JP version) again in a few days. The release date will be able to be decided if there is no problem."
A stream will go live later tonight of the game's final build. You can check it out here at 10PM Pacific time.
Oh, they also released several new screenshots which are absoultely gorgeous. Check them out after the jump.

Jan Hammer: Magical Dog
Magical Dog
Jan Hammer (keyboards, percussion)
Oh, Yeah? (Wounded Bird WOU-437)
Jan Hammer (keyboards, percussion),
Steve Kindler (violin), Fernando Saunders (bass), Tony Smith (drums), David Earle Johnson (congas, percussion).
Composed by Jan Hammer.
Recorded: New York, April 1976
Rating: 95/100 (learn more)
In 2006, Wounded Bird released 1976's Oh, Yeah? for the first time on CD. Prior to this you either had to have the original LP record or be satisfied with a couple of the tunes from that album that could be heard on the CD compilation The Early Years. That was not good enough for a fusion classic. Oh, Yeah? was Hammer's follow-up to Like Children, the record he made with ex-Mahavishnu Orchestra bandmate violinist Jerry Goodman. In essence it was Hammer's first solo album after Mahavishnu.
"Magical Dog" was the introductory song of his new band the Jan Hammer Group. At this time, electric guitar was the dominant sound in almost all of popular fusion. But there was no guitar within 50 miles of Hammer's new music. Slowly and surely his synthesizers would allow him to become "the guitarist" on his records. But the technology, or Hammer's desire for a guitar sound, wasn't quite there yet. Would fusion fans miss it? Maybe some did. But Hammer's music was so dynamic that only the anal retentive among us complained. "Magical Dog" was every bit the quality of music heard on Mahavishnu or Billy Cobham's Spectrum. Drummer Tony Smith, percussionist David Earle Johnson and bassist Fernando Saunders were big-time jazz-rock operators. Hammer was clearly the best musician on synthesizer at this time. Violinist Steven Kindler, fresh from the new Mahavishnu Orchestra, proved to be a real talent. Here, Hammer's composition had him and Kindler trading at fusion overdrive speeds. And it was all very musical. There was still a Mahavishnu sound to it all because of Hammer and the presence of a violin. But it was Jan Hammer music. "Magical Dog" was a favorite tune of the band to play live. I can understand why. It appeared that Jan Hammer would be among those who took fusion successfully through the decade.

Red Raiders Run-Rule Northern Colorado in Opener
Sydnie Tapia went 3-for-4 with two RBI in Texas Tech's 14-6 victory over Northern Colorado Friday.
Feb. 14, 2014
LAS CRUCES, N.M. - Texas Tech jumped out to early lead with 13 runs over the first three innings Friday morning en route to a 14-6 run-rule victory over Northern Colorado in the Troy Cox Classic opener at the NMSU Softball Complex.
It was second run-rule victory in the last three contests for the Red Raiders (4-2) heading into the second game of the day against Weber State. Tech also defeated UMKC, 13-5, last Saturday in Louisiana.
The Red Raiders used a four-run first inning off Northern Colorado (1-5) before coming back with nine in the third to break the game open. Tech's 14 runs and 19 hits were both season highs.
Six different Red Raiders recorded at least two hits in the rout with Sydnie Tapia and Samantha Camello leading the way with 3-for-4 games while Sydni Emanuel finished 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored. It was the first time a Tech player had recorded three hits in a game this season.
Camello and Tapia were also among the five Red Raiders to drive in at least two runs as well with Tapia connected on a two-run single in the third while Camello recorded a pair of RBI singles in the third and sixth innings.
Lea Hopson led all players with three RBI as she finished 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in the first and then a RBI double that jump-started Tech's nine-run third inning. The junior college transfer has now homered three times in the first six games.
Kristi Belshe also finished 2-for-4 at the plate with a pair of RBI as she knocked in Tech's first run with single in the first. She followed a Brittany Lee two-run double in the third with another RBI single up the middle.
Tech's nine runs in the third marked its most in a single inning since also plating nine on March 10 last year against Troy. The Red Raiders previously scored eight last weekend in the third inning against UMKC.
Gretchen Aucoin (1-0) picked up the win for the Red Raiders in relief of starter Cara Custer. Aucoin, in her fourth appearance already this season, tossed the final three innings, allowing two runs, both unearned, off three hits and three walks while striking out four.
Custer finished with the no-decision after surrendering four runs off seven hits before being replaced to start the fourth inning.
The Bears plated four runs off Custer with two outs in the third as Megan Wilkinson drove a two-run double off the fence in right field while Nichole Hudson followed with a two-run homer to opposite field as well.
Mikayla Duffy (0-3) earned the loss for Northern Colorado after giving up seven runs off eight hits over the first 2.1 innings. She was replaced by Jayme Reddacliff, who surrendered five runs without recording an out, and Breeanna Holliday, who tossed the final 3.2 innings, allowing two runs off seven hits.
The game was the first of three this season between Tech and Northern Colorado as the two schools will meet twice during the Jeannine McHaney Memorial Classic that will be held March 7-9 in Lubbock.
The Red Raiders close the day with a 2:30 p.m. first pitch against Weber State.

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or PTSD is an anxiety disorder that develops as a result of a traumatic event such as combat or military exposure. The trauma causes fear and anxiety over the idea that you, your family, and your friends may be in danger.
Clinical depression is often diagnosed in veterans and is known to create disturbances in mood, concentration, sleep patterns, activity level, interests, appetite, and social behavior. Clinical Depression can be especially debilitating.
There are several types of anxiety disorders that may affect veterans including Generalized Anxiety Disorder, PTSD, Social Anxiety Disorder, and many others. Any anxiety disorder can negatively impact every part of a persons life.
Bipolar Disorder
If you are suffering from alternating periods of elevated and depressed moods, you may have bipolar disorder, also known as manic-depression. Bipolar disorder is a disruptive, long-term condition that requires medical or psychological treatment.

We Believe
As a national American veteran advocacy organization that no disabled American veteran should be denied VA benefits because of a lack of access to proper medical and legal services.
Other veteran organizations are not capable of this level of support and assistance.James S.
I wanted to take a moment and thank you so very much for all that you have done for me. As a veteran who has struggled with PTSD since the mid 1970s, it is such a wonderful feeling to have someone stand up and fight on your behalf. I could not have accomplished what you have done for me. Your staff worked tirelessly to jump through all the hurdles the system has.Rebecca L.

While recent reports confirm that singer Robin Thicke and actress Paula Patton mutually decided to divorce, looks like Robin Thicke changed his mind.
In a recent performance at Patriot Center in Fairfax, Va., he sang "Lost Without You" from his 2006 CD "The Evolution of Robin Thicke" as a tribute to his wife/actress Paula Patton and went on record stating he was trying to get her back.
"I want to dedicate this song to [Paula Patton]," Robin Thicke said while walking around on stage. "I wrote this about her, and I need y'all help to get me through it. Let's do it."
Robin Thicke also encouraged the crowd to show appreciation to their own significant others. "If you've got somebody with you tonight that you love and you appreciate, hold on tight to them. You know, take care of them."
The couple has been married for nine years and were high school sweethearts. Most of his music lyrics were speculations of their relationships through the years. Ironically his 2013 CD "Blurred Lines" was the happiest of his six cds, starting with 2003's "A Beautiful World." "Blurred Lines" had more party tracks but the single of the same name lead to a lawsuit settlement with Marvin Gaye's family and (for unrelated reasons) threat of a divorce.
In the original "Lost Without You" video, his wife was the love interest. Although Blurred Lines did better numbers (peaked at number 1 on the Billboard charts, spent 45 weeks on the charts), "Lost Without You" was a hit in the R&B community (peaked at number 14, spent 34 weeks on the charts).
Rumors ran rampant that pop/country artist Miley Cyrus was the cause of the divorce due to their 2013 VMA Music Awards performance. However, Patton was vocal about being present at dance rehearsals and defended her husband and Cyrus for their "Blurred Lines" routine. She also joked about the song not being the type of track to sit at a piano and sing like Alicia Keys. Not to be outdone, she did her own version of twerking (that she called a "shimmy") on "The Arsenio Hall Show."
Patton recently starred in 2013's "Baggage Claim" and had a small role in this year's "About Last Night."

This weekend, in addition to Mother's Day, is also the weekend of Confederate Memorial Day in South Carolina. Normally observed on May 10, it was observed on May 9 due to it falling on a weekend.
Confederate Memorial Day is a day set aside to pay tribute to those who fought with the Confederacy during the Civil War. It is observed, either locally or at the state level, in most southern states but on different days. In South Carolina and North Carolina, on April 26 in Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Mississippi, May 30 in Virginia and June 3 in Kentucky, Louisiana and Tennessee. Texas observed it on January 19. May 10 also is the date that Stonewall Jackson died from wounds suffered at the Battle of Chancellorsville. January 19 is Robert E. Lee's birthday.
One website, the Sons of the Confederate Veterans,claims that Confederate Memorial Day inspired Gen. John Logan, who was a driving force behind Memorial Day, to lead an effort for the north to do the same. However, there is no mention of this on the Department of Veterans Affairs website.

Deputy Prime Minister and Commander of the National Guard Crown Prince Abdullah bin Abdulaziz today inaugurated the Natural Gas and Petroleum Development Project in Haradh, in the Rub Al-Khali (Empty Quarter). In his address on the occasion, Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources Ali Al-Naimi referred to the project as another of the Kingdom's giant industrial projects, and described it as an integral part of an economic policy aimed at optimal exploitation of the country's natural wealth, while contributing to boosting development and diversifying exports. Priority has been given, he said, to the exploitation and development of natural gas, in order to meet increasing local demand, boost economic development and build up gas-based national industries.
The Kingdom's gas industry successfully accomplished two major phases: first, the establishment 30 years ago of the main gas network that resulted in utilizing gas associated with crude oil instead of flaring it, while laying the foundations for the industrial cities of Jubail and Yanbu. The second phase began ten years ago and focused on increasing the network's productive capacity from three to seven billion cubic feet daily and supplying natural gas to new areas such as Riyadh. During this period, the exploitation of newly-discovered reserves of non-associated gas expanded, with the result that Saudi Arabia's gas reserves are now around 235 trillion cubic feet, the fourth largest in the world.
In the third phase, processing plants for the non-associated gas have been constructed at Shaybah, Hawiyyah, and now Haradh; and Crown Prince Abdullah's gas initiative is providing opportunities for international investment in the exploration as well as exploitation for natural gas. Just two months ago a tripartite agreement was signed by Saudi Aramco, Shell, and TotalFinaElf on exploiting and producing natural gas in the southern part of the Rub Al-Khali. Over the next few weeks, data will be collected from the project's aerial and seismological surveys covering around 210 square kilometers. Next week, another international tender will be launched for three new areas. After meeting local demands for gas, Saudi Arabia plans to export the surplus, thereby increasing its national income.
Highlighting the effort exerted by the private sector in the Haradh gas project, Minister Al-Naimi said that 40 percent of the materials used in its construction were locally manufactured. He added that focusing on gas has not distracted Saudi Aramco from promoting oil, pointing out that the Haradh project inaugurated today by the Crown Prince also involves the production of petroleum condensates and phosphates as well as processing around 300,000 barrels per day of crude oil.
Aramco President and CEO Abdullah Jumaa also addressed the gathering, pointing out that the Haradh plant is connected to the system of gas pipelines that supply Jubail, Yanbu and Riyadh, feeding petrochemical factories that produce 19 million tons annually, steel mills that produce 10 million tons a year, and power stations that produce 13,500 megawatts of electricity serving all the Saudi provinces as well as fueling desalination plants that provide 3 million cubic meters of fresh water and meet half of the Kingdom's needs. The projects to be implemented over the coming five years, he said, will provide thousands of direct and indirect jobs, and confirmed that the project's operating team is 98 percent Saudi.
The recently completed mega project at Haradh consists of a gas plant capable of delivering 1.5 billion cubic feet of gas to the country's Master Gas System, and a gas-oil separator plant capable of stabilizing 300,000 barrels of crude oil per day. The Haradh Plant is Saudi Aramco's second facility built primarily to process large amounts of non-associated gas from gas reservoirs, the first being Hawiyyah, which went on stream in 2002. In addition to gas, Haradh has the capacity to deliver 170,000 bpd of condensate to Saudi Aramco's Abqaiq processing facility and can produce 90 tons of sulfur per day for export. The three mega projects - Shaybah, Hawiyyah and now Haradh - demonstrate Saudi Aramco's competency in this area, and will contribute to the ongoing expansion of Saudi industry, further enhancing the investment climate.

The Black Keys' last album, "Brothers," was very successful. Most people will probably remember the band's hit single "Tighten Up." However, the Black Keys have been around since 2001, and their seventh album, "El Camino," brings back a little more of a blues influence.
On this album, the Black Keys turned back to legendary indie producer Danger Mouse.
Some Black Keys fans might not have been happy with this announcement, however. Danger Mouse produced their 2008 album, "Attack & Release," which is often considered to be the black sheep of the band's discography. However, this time around the collaboration was a success.
Plenty of newer fans will find some great singles, like the fast-paced "Lonely Boy" or catchy "Gold on the Ceiling." The album really shines on tracks like "Run Right Back" and "Nova Baby" and these most definitely bring back the bluesy feel of early Black Keys, albeit with more production.
Also, the slower, more melodic, "Stop Stop" shows the depth of the Black Keys. The Black Keys have been steadily evolving since they released their first album. They adjust and make changes to their sound as they see fit and don't seem to be too affected by pressure from fans or the music industry. Since they have consistently dropped good albums for 10 years, it is nice to see them continuing to get the attention that they deserve.
Focus Tracks: "Run Right Back," "Nova Baby," "Stop Stop"
Additional Info:
Release Number: 7th
Hailing From: Akron, Ohio
Genre: Bluesy Rock
Label: Nonesuch

College Hockey:Proposal To Expand D-I Tournament Forthcoming
U.S. College Hockey Online has learned that a forthcoming proposal from Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference sources will suggest expanding the NCAA men's Division I championship tournament from its current 12 teams to 16.
The NCAA Championship Cabinet is expected to take up the proposal in two weeks. If approved, a 16-team tournament featuring four regional sites could begin play in 2000-01.
Sources familiar with the proposal have told USCHO that they feel "very good" about its chances for approval.
The proposed expansion would likely have the side effect of improving the nascent MAAC hockey league's chances of obtaining an automatic bid to the tournament, and could also lead to the women's championships being played at the same sites as the men's.

Tucson, Ariz. ?- The University of Arizona women's soccer team (10-2-0, 1-0-0) started the Pac-10 season off on the right foot on Friday night against Washington State University (5-4-2, 0-1-0). The Wildcats came from behind to defeat the Cougars, 3-1.
After 41 minutes of scoreless play, the Cougars put the first score on the board with a goal from junior Alix Rustrum. The goal was her fifth of the season and came unassisted at 41:20. The Wildcats were able to tie the score just before the half with a goal from junior Jennifer Klein. Klein placed a ball in the back of the net off of assists from junior Althea Jones and senior Kamaya Damwijk. Freshman goalkeeper McCall Smith made two saves in the first period, while Washington State junior goalkeeper Katie Hultin had one.
Less than five minutes into the second half, the Wildcats took the lead with Damwijk placing her team-leading fifth goal of the season past Hultin at 49:09. Senior Candice Wilks added to the Wildcat lead at 62:07 off of a combination from juniors Jennifer Klein and Mallory Miller.
The win marks the first time in the program's history that the team has opened the Pac-10 season with a victory. The win also ties the Wildcats for the most home victories in the program's history with five.
Head Coach Dan Tobias discussed the goal that was scored early in the second half.
"One of the things we wanted to do coming out in the second half was to get an early goal," he explained. "Kamaya came out and did what she's been doing and she scored a few minutes in."
Tobias described Washington State as a tough opponent.
"They are a good team," he said. "They are well organized and they play very tight defensively. They are a team that is well coached and well disciplined."
He was impressed with the Wildcats' consistent play throughout the game.
"We did a good job the entire game," he explained. "We gave up a goal but we responded and our response was to score. We knew we had plenty of time left. We did a good job on both sides of the ball and I think everybody contributed tonight. The win is a great way to start the Pac-10 season."
The Wildcats will play in their second Pac-10 contest of the season on Sunday, Oct. 10 at 1 p.m. against No. 4 Washington. The match will take place at Murphey Stadium, located at 15th Street and Plumer Ave. Admission is free.

Iran – Can Iran's Oil Industry Bypass the Imposed Sanctions?
MACRO WATCH Global: Iran, the second-largest crude oil producer following Saudi Arabia in OPEC, could lose this position if its oil production continues to drop. Iran's crude oil production fell by 16% in April 2012 from April 2011, as production levels have declined from 3.7 million barrels a day to about 3 million since January 2011. This was exacerbated by the European Union-led oil embargo against Iran proposed in 2012. Production is expected to drop even moreas the embargo comes into full force in July 2012, further restricting Iran's access to foreign oil markets.
Declining Iranian Crude Oil Production
Chart provided by: CEIC
With oil and gas exports accounting for approximately 14% of Iran's exports, these sanctions will adversely impact Iran's economy though it may result in economic repercussions, such as higher world oil prices.

I have a little problem with screen.
I wanted to launch several servers in a screen session, so I made a little script designed to to have one server per window.

screen -S servers -t http -p 0 sh -c "cd /servers/start/httpo ; run.sh"
screen -S servers -t sql -p 1 sh -c "cd /servers/start/sql ; run.sh"
But it's not working right - the sessions are created, but all the commands start on the first window.

On April 19, 2007, Mosher received a twelve month sentence and time already served will be counted toward her sentence. She'll also pay $1,000 in fines.
The Indiana woman was initially accused of murdering Cornelius Martin and Brooks Mitchell and wounding Bill Leachman when she crossed the center line on Highway 79 in Logan County, Ky., last June.
On April 13, a jury found Mosher not guilty to DUI, wanton endangerment, wanton murder, second-degree manslaughter and first-degree assault.
Mosher was only found guilty to possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.
At the final sentencing hearing today, the families of Cornelius Martin and Brooks Mitchell were given the opportunity to speak out about the crash, the trial and the verdict.
Amber Martin recounts the moments where she only knew that her father had been in an accident. Thinking he was still alive, she was frantically searching for him in every hospital.
"I talked to my brother Chad. He was in Arizona at the time and he said 'Amber, why can't you find Dad,' and it wasn't until that minute that I thought my dad could be dead," Amber recalled. She didn't know her father had died until 4 p.m. that afternoon.
As Amber lashed out in anger, Mosher hung her head and never made eye contact.
"You decided to smoke marijuana, drive a vehicle while impaired and show no remorse. You murdered my father," Amber said.
Amber said the damage to her father's body was so traumatic they had to use a veil at his funeral.
"My dad's face was swollen. My dad had the most beautiful dimples. I remember his most defining dimple was on the side he was hit, and his face was swollen," Amber said.
Brooks Mitchell's daughter Caroline said she forgives Mosher.
"I hate that this happened. I hate that my dad is not here. I hate everything about this, but I don't hate you," Caroline said.
Even though Mosher's sentence is final, both families hope that legislation will be passed to make it tougher on those who drive under the influence of drugs.
"We know she had it in her system. We know the amount, but because there's nothing there, it's not like alcohol, point eight or point something else. I think the fact that its not there is why she's going to be back on the roads again," Caroline said.
"It is my major desire that something will be done in the justice system that people who drug on the road will be taken off for a lengthy period of time," Cornelius's brother, Howitt Martin said.
Mosher's plea date is May 3, 2007. She'll go to trial for possession of marijuana, contraband and promoting contraband on May 7, 2007.
