HarperTorch, Mass Market Paperback, 9780061043529, 448pp.
Publication Date: April 1, 1995
The mystery writer Harriet Vane, recovering from an unhappy love affair and its aftermath, seeks solace on a barren beach -- deserted but for the body of a bearded young man with his throat cut. From the moment she photographs the corpse, which soon disappears with the tide, she is puzzled by a mystery that might have been suicide, murder or a political plot. With the appearance of her dear friend Lord Peter Wimsey, she finds a reason for detective pursuit -- as only the two of them can pursue it.
Dorothy L. Sayers is the author of novels, short stories, poetry collections, essays, reviews and translations. Although she was a noted Christian scholar, she is most known for her detective fiction. Born in 1893, she was one of the first women to be awarded a degree from Oxford University. Her first book featuring Lord Peter Wimsey, Whose Body?, was published in 1923 and over the next 20 years more novels and short stories about the aristocratic amateur sleuth appeared. Dorothy L. Sayers is recognized as one of the greatest mystery writers of the 20th century.
Letter from the Editor:
Dorothy L. Sayers is recognized as one of the greatest mystery writers of the 20th century. In 1923, Whose Body?, her first book, featuring the aristocratic amateur sleuth, Lord Peter Wimsey, was published, and over the next 20 years more novels and short stories appeared. All 15 of Sayers' mysteries are available from HarperPaperbacks.
Now there is a new Dorothy L. Sayers novel. A long-lost partial manuscript titled Thrones, Dominions was discovered last year, and acclaimed mystery writer Jill Paton Walsh has completed it. St. Martin's Press will publish this book in February. This is a signal publishing event, and HarperCollins congratulates St. Martin's Press.
We are sure that Thrones, Dominions will delight Sayers' fans and find new ones for her, and in the process whet appetites for Sayers' other mysteries. A list of these books is attached. In the words of Dorothy L. Sayers herself, "Murder must advertise." So, in addition to an announcement about Thrones, Dominions in a recent issue of Publisher's Weekly, the next edition of the HarperCollins mystery newsletter, Deadline, will include a piece on the Sayers books, as will St. Martin's Press' newsletter, Murder at the Flatiron Building. HarperCollins will also feature information about the Sayers' backlist on its web page.
Dorothy L. Sayers died in 1957, but her books continue to enthrall readers today. Please help us celebrate the doyenne of the Golden Age of the Mystery, Dorothy L. Sayers.

Is there a way for vhost X to write files to vhost Y? Here is my setup:
www.domain.com points to x.x.x.x IP address, using /httpdocs as directory www.domain1.com points to x.x.x.x IP address, using /httpdocs/www.domain1.com as directory www.domain2.com points to x.x.x.x IP address, using /httpdocs/www.domain2.com as directory
All websites are linked to the same database.
I would like that if a user uploads a file to domain1.com, the file is actually stored on domain2.com (/httpdocs/www.domain2.com/uploads). Is this possible?
Thanks for your help.

Music Monday: Ken Nordine – What Time is It?
Uphill Writing: Music Monday
Chances are you have never heard of Ken Nordine, but you may recognize his voice. He has been a voice hero of mine for a very long time. Ken is a voice artist, and though in his 80s, now, is still active.
Today's "music" is more a monologue set to music than our normal Monday song, but if you take the time to listen to it, you'll know immediately why I revere this man and his work.
I could go on, but I would rather you heard the man himself.
Ladies and gentlemen, Ken Nordine, and "What Time is It?" from Word Jazz.

A Unit Study Using Aesop's Fables
Aesop's Fables are timeless classics that teach morals. In fact it led to several cartoon series whose stories always ended "and the moral of the story is…". These stories are still useful today in illustrating cause and effect in the real world, but they are kind enough to use with even the very young. These stories, because of their imaginative structure, also lend themselves quite easily to the unit study and across-the-curriculum approach.
Aesop, the author of a collection of stories called fables, was a 6th century BC Greek slave. Though some of the stories in his collection may have more ancient origins, he is the one who made them popular. Aesop's stories were retold orally for over 200 years before some collected about two hundred of them and wrote them down. Each fable teaches a lesson on human virtue or human frailty. There are several versions of each of Aesop's fables, some for adults and some for children. When teaching this unit, it would be a good idea to read several versions of the same fable.
This site has a collection of over 600 of Aesop's fables: http://www.pacificnet.net/~johnr/aesop/
Aesop Quotes: http://www.chesco.com/~artman/aesop.html
Biography of Aesop: http://www.wendy.com/children/aesop.html
Go to this site and key in AESOP in the "search this site" box and you'll return with many different options that are really helpful, some geared toward the older student: http://7-12educators.about.com/education/7-12educators/cs/lessonplans/index.htm
For use with The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse:
1. Writing/Journaling: Imagine your home. Pretend that you are a very hungry mouse somewhere in your home. Write about your food-finding adventures, including the secret place where you hide your food and where you would live.
2. Correspondence: Send a letter to either the country mouse or the city mouse telling him what you think of his decision to live where he does. Include all the proper parts of a letter, including properly address an envelope.
3. Arts & Crafts: make paper plate puppets and re-enact the fable with your puppets. You can use paper towel rolls or popsicle sticks for puppet handles.
4. Geography: According to popular belief, mice love cheese. In the USA, most of the cheese produced comes from the state of Wisconsin. Find Wisconsin on a map. Find Wisconsin on a globe. What else can you learn about Wisconsin. (Note: if you do not live in the USA, what area of your country produces the most cheese? Find that place on a map and study it.)
5. Social Studies: What makes a city? Design a city. This city can be one from the past, one that does or might exist today, or you can design a city of the future. What makes the city different from the country? Where would you prefer to live and why?
For use with The Tortoise and the Hare:
1. Writing: If the moral of the story was "Winning isn't everything" how would the story be different? Write the new ending to the story and share it with others.
2. Phys Ed: Participate in some relay races. They can be serious or silly. Relay races don't necessarily rely on speed, some rely more on dexterity. Some examples of silly relay races are: rolling a hard-boiled egg across the floor with your nose; carry a cotton ball in a spoon while holding the spoon handle between your teeth from one point to another; put an orange or softball under your chin and then pass it to a neighbor who has to put it under their chin without using your hands or your feet.
3. Drawing: Draw a detailed map of the places and events in the story.
4. Science/Biology: Is a tortoise the same thing as a turtle? Are there different varieties of tortoise?
5. Science/Biology: What do you think that a rabbit has to be fast? What animals are rabbits' natural preditor? How does a rabbit use its speed to survive in the wild?
For use with The Bear and the Bees:
1. Math: Use this brainteaser – How many bees attacked the bear? Read the clues to find the answer. It is an even number between 120 and 130. All of its digits are different numbers. From left to right, each digit doubles the one before it. The sum of its digits is 7. Answer: 124 bees.
2. Conflict Resolution: Discuss the bear's actions. Think of some alternatives to the bear's angry reaction. Write and letter to the bear suggesting how it could behave next time.
3. Science/Biology: Learn about bears. Where do they live? What do they eat? Find out what a nuisance bear is. (A nuisance bear is a bear that has learn to NOT be afraid of humans and who frequents garbage dumps and camp grounds on more than two occasions. While a nuisance bear may be relocated, they often return to where they came from. If they continue to be a nuisance, they most often have to be destroyed.)
4. Science/Biology: Learn about how bees make honey.
5. Home Ec: Try replacing other sweeteners with honey when cooking. Or, make honey taffy – gradually heat honey over medium low heat until it is reduced in liquid by about one-third to one-half, while stirring regularly to prevent sticking and scorching. After it has reduced, dribble this onto a buttered (or non-stick sprayed) platter or pan. Allow the taffy to cool sufficiently before picking it up. You can then eat it like it is or use buttered hands to pull it until it has a golden, glossy sheen. Beware, this is an all natural candy, but it will still pull your fillings out of your teeth if you are not careful.
There are several internet resources that have many of Aesop's fables on-line. I also recommend checking your local library and bookstore for copies of various translations of Aesop's fables. The illustrations in some of these books are as rich and textured as the stories themselves.

Rating scale
- ###: This comic may have its flaws, but is generally enjoyable for fans of its genre.
- ###: This comic is quite good and there may be some real gems in the archive.
- ###: This comic is among the best and everybody should read it.
Regularly updated comics
- ### Buni is about a hopelessly optimistic bunny, conveniently named Buni, in a cruel, dark world. It is one of the best online comics that are still updating regularly.
- ### Count your Sheep is a cute comic strip about a small girl, her mother and their best friend, the imaginary sheep Ship.
- ### Heavenly Nostrils is a syndicated comic strip by D.C. Simpson, the creator of Ozy and Millie. It features the chaotic nine-year-old girl Phoebe and her best friend, the unicorn Marigold Heavenly Nostrils who is regularly stunned by her own beauty and awesomeness. It's probably easiest to describe Heavenly Nostrils as "Calvin and Hobbes for girls." I think the strongest points of the comic strip are Phoebe, who is immediately likeable, and the funny facial expressions.
- ### Two Guys and Guy is a gag-a-day comic that follows the day-to-day adventures of three sociopaths: Wayne, Frank and the girl Guy. A baby bath that escalates to a police shoot-out isn't normal, but in Two Guys and Guy it is. Some jokes are very hard to get, though.
- ### Whubble is a funny workplace comic strip following this premise: What if all the characters are cats (except for one dog and one pig) and behave even more bizarre than the Dilbert crew?
- ### Commander Kitty is a sci-fi comic about the funny adventures of an incompetent feline space ranger and his equally incompetent crew. A lot of thought went into the world and character design and the comic manages to be exciting and still deliver a joke on almost every page.
- ### Gunnerkrigg Court is a fantasy comic with sci-fi elements and published in more or less self-contained chapters. They tell the mysterious story of the young girl Antimony "Annie" Carver and her best friend Katerina "Kat" Donlan who attend the eponymous school as they get involved in the political intrigues between Gunnerkrigg Court and the mythical creatures of Gillitie Wood, a forest next to their school.
- ### Unsounded is a fantasy comic that has the most beautiful artwork I've ever seen. While the story is also interesting with a rich lore, the comic might not be everybody's piece of cake since the female lead character, the foul-mouthed rogue Sette, is one of the most obnoxious brats in the history of storytelling.
Sporadic updates / On hiatus / Completed
- ### Alice! [sporadic updates] is a newspaper-style comic strip which very much feels like Calvin and Hobbes (though never reaching its quality). Alice! follows the wacky adventures of the teenage girl Alice, who shares Calvin's vivid imagination, and her friend Dot, who plays the role of the "straight girl".
- ### Bob-Rz's DeviantArt gallery [sporadic updates] features several very clever cartoons dealing with the bitter aspects of love, seen from a male perspective. There are also lots of other cartoons which are just plain silly, many of them with rather suggestive gags.
- ### Daisy Owl [completed] features the girl Daisy, her little brother Cooper, their adoptive father Benjamin Owl (an owl) and Mr. Owl's friend Steve Brown (a bear). There are several real gems in the archive, but many strips are very weird, which often results in them being either a hit or a miss.
- ### Edmund Finney's Quest to Find the Meaning of Life [sporadic updates] was the best comic strip on the web when it was still updated regularly. On his trip around the world, the adventurer Edmund Finney makes extremely funny encounters with quirky natives and other travellers. A surreal experience you shouldn't miss!
- ### Gil [completed] is a comic strip about an eight-year-old boy who doesn't lose his optimism despite living in less than stellar conditions with a poor mom and a deadbeat dad. Unfortunately, the comic strip had to be tamed down compared to its initial run some years ago for the syndication in American newspaper and has therefore lost some of its charme.
- ### Life Ain't no Pony Farm [irregular updates] is a journal-style comic strip by the German artist Sarah Burrini, featuring herself and a bunch of talking animals as her roommates. Naturally, she's the butt of the joke most of the time.
- ### Luke Surl [on hiatus] is a cartoon in the tradition of The Far Side with clever jokes outside the box. But the subpar artwork hasn't improved much over the course of the years.
- ### Mal and Chad [completed] is a newspaper-style comic strip about the boy Mal and his talking dog Chad. When the little genius Mal is not busy wooing the love of his life, Megan, he is inventing teleporters. Unlike most webcomics, Mal and Chad is a very light-hearted comic which is suitable for young children.
- ### NOTFUNNY Cartoons [completed]: Very funny, very bizarre cartoons.
- ### Ozy and Millie [completed] is a long-running comic strip in the style of Calvin and Hobbes featuring the serene young fox Ozy and his hyperactive best friend Millie. In its heydays at the beginning of the century, it was maybe the best online comic.
- ### The Perry Bible Fellowship [sporadic updates]: Cynical cartoons with a nice surrealistic touch.
- ### A Redtail's Dream [completed]
- ### Digger [completed] tells the story of the brave wombat Digger who wound up in a strange land far away from home. The unique black and white artwork of Digger deserves praise.
- ### Lackadaisy [sporadic updates] is set in St. Louis during the prohibition era and follows the exploits of the Lackadaisy crew, a formerly (but now less so) prosperous crime gang. The story is nothing special, but the characters (all cats) are lovingly designed, and the artwork is absolutely incredible, especially the facial expressions of the characters.
- ### Red's Planet [stays unfinished] is a funny all-ages adventure comic about a red-haired 10-year old girl who, much to her annoyance, is known to everyone as "Red".
- ### The Meek [stays unfinished] is a fantasy comic that consists of three chapters at the moment that only seem to be loosely related to each other. The first chapter centers on the (completely naked) young woman Angora who was sent on a dangerous mission by her "grandpa". While the artwork is top-notch, The Meek suffers from its erratic update schedule with only one new page per week in average.
- ### Union of Heroes [stays unfinished] is a slice-of-life photonovel which takes place in the Ruhr Area of Germany in an alternative universe in which superheroes are common. Despite this description, the comic does not suck 😉 but is an interesting read.

It looks like Elena (Nina Dobrev) is in for some pain in the upcoming "Vampire Diaries" episode, 521, "Promised Land," for which the CW released promotional photos on Thursday, April 17.
In one of the last episodes of the season, Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Elena escape from Markos' (Raffi Barsoumian) control only to find themselves stranded in a remote location. This gives them a chance to talk – as we saw at the end of "Resident Evil," they're pretty good at that now – and for Stefan to philosophical with Elena about her relationship with Damon (Ian Somerhalder).
Meanwhile, Liv (Penelope Mitchell) and Luke's (Chris Brochu) attempt to protect the doppelgangers goes badly, so they come up with a dangerous new strategy. It looks like the "Promised Land" photos in the slideshow offer a look at this "dangerous new strategy" – and Elena is right in the middle of it. It seems as though Liv may have done something to Elena, and whatever happens is going to lead to brother and sister facing off, with Elena on the ground in the middle. Will this at least work in the end? And where is Stefan during this? Could they have separated the doppelgangers for a reason to protect them since (at least) one attempt doesn't go as planned? Is he still in the truck?
Elsewhere, Damon recruits Matt (Zach Roerig) and Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) to help set a trap for Markos, but Markos has a devastating surprise of his own. Bonnie (Kat Graham) finally tells Caroline (Candice Accola) she's been keeping the truth about the Other Side from everyone, but while Bonnie looks for a way to stop Markos, Caroline sees an unthinkable act of violence by a Traveler.
"The Vampire Diaries" season 5 airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. on the CW. "Promised Land," written by Rebecca Sonnenshine and directed by Michael Allowitz, airs May 8. What do you think of these episode 21 photos?

Next Sunday the season finale of "The Walking Dead" will air and while two groups, who have reunited, have made it to Terminus, there is the question of if anyone else will. On March 23, SpoilerTV posted a short clip of "TWD" season 4, episode 16 that may answer that question.
Warning: If you do not want to know "The Walking Dead" 4x16 spoilers, then stop reading.
All of the groups have seen the signs for Terminus and they are all headed that way. Everyone except Beth, who was kidnapped. Abraham, Eugene, Rosita, Tara, Glenn, Maggie, Sasha and Bob have made it to Terminus. However, Rick, Carl and Michonne are still walking along the train tracks and Daryl is with Joe's group, who are also going to the sanctuary, as fans found out on the last episode.
Joe's group isn't too happy with Rick and would like nothing more to get revenge for letting a member of their group turn into a walker. Although Joe did tell Daryl about the situation, he has no idea that the person who did it was Rick. So will Rick's group make it to Terminus? If so, will Joe's group make it there as well and what will happen if and when the two meet?
A sneak peek clip of "The Walking Dead" season 4, episode 16, titled "A" shows Rick, Carl and Michonne walking. They must have made some progress because they are no longer on the train tracks. Carl is wondering what they should tell the people at Terminus about their past, but Rick says they should just tell them who they are. As they are talking, a walker is seen and Michonne grabs her katana to take care of it with Rick and Carl following behind her.
It is no secret that Michonne can deal with pretty much any walker out there. There have been times when she has had to take care of several of them at once. With her skills along with having Rick and Carl to back her up, the trio will most likely make it to Terminus, but that is just speculation.
A sneak peek for the season finale of "The Walking Dead" aired on AMC immediately following the last episode and it showed hands restrained that were bleeding. The next shot showed Rick who appeared to be in a chair of some kind, unable to get free. He was sweating, had blood on him and looked like he was in pain as well as fearful. Either Terminus is really a place of torture or Joe's group found him.
Robert Kirkman and executive producer Gale Anne Hurd both said in separate interviews that Rick was going to be pushed to the limits. They even went as far to say that if viewers thought they had seen Rick pushed to the edge before, that it was nothing compared to what he will be going through.
What do you think will happen on the season finale? Will Rick, Carl and Michonne make it to Terminus or will Joe's group find Rick first?
"The Walking Dead" season 4, episode 16, titled "A" will air on March 30.

Toninho Horta: Portrait in Black and White
Portrait in Black and White
Toninho Horta (guitar, vocals)
To Jobim With Love (Resonance Records HCD-2004)
Toninho Horta (guitar, vocals),
Dave Kikoski (piano), Gary Peacock (bass), Esdra Ferreira (drums), Dede Sampaio, Esdra Ferreira, Julinho Barbosa, Julio Barbosa, Manolo Badrena, Sergio Brandao, Zeuler Michelina (percussion).
Composed by Antonio Carlos Jobim; arranged by Toninho Horta.
Recorded: New York, 1998
Rating: 92/100 (learn more)
Winter blues got you down? Take a sonic sojourn with a recently unearthed gem that summons visions of Rio beaches, swaying palms and steaming rainforests. To mark bossa nova's 50th birthday, George Klabin, founder of Resonance Records, has reissued Toninho Horta's loving tribute to Antonio Carlos Jobim. Originally released only in Japan and Brazil, To Jobim With Love had long been a Klabin favorite. In 2007 he was presented with the opportunity to secure the rights to this nearly forgotten recording, and happily did so.
The bossa has been around for decades, but with few exceptions (Charlie Byrd comes to mind) most non- Brazilian artists tend to misinterpret the form's subtle rhythm. This track is the real McCarlos; guitarists aspiring to capture that Brazil vibe could find no greater example than the flawless, pearl-shaped lines Toninho lays down on "Portrait in Black and White," going down smooth as a freshly shaken Caipirinha. The layers of string and flute enhancement are deep but somehow never interfere with the melody's quiet introspection. Horta's breathy vocals and assured, warm guitar work get ample backing from a crack rhythm section and his soaring, dreamy orchestral arrangement. This is a masterful interpretation of Jobim's classic.

Great Product By Jonathon on 11/26/2012Jonathon would recommend this product to a friendI have been using this test kit for about 6 years. Never had any problems. Seems to be accurate and easy to read. I would note that I can only compare it API test kits however.
Questionable By Robert on 8/23/2012Robert wouldn't recommend this product to a friendI have this kit to check my RO system and I while I do like the straightforward reagent procedure, I do not like the "color matching" approach. I cannot really state with any confidence that that I can discern the fine color gradations on the chart.
Great kit By Joshua on 2/27/2012Joshua would recommend this product to a friendI use this when setting up a new reef lets me know for sure how long and what kind of diatom growth I have and when it will most likely end!
Much Better By Brian on 8/4/2010Brian would recommend this product to a friendI tired using Seachem's test for Silicates and it was a pain. I am a fan of Seachem's products just not there test kits.

Mateo Says Alicia Keys 'Ups My Standards' in the Studio
You could say Iman "Mateo" Jordan is a hopeless romantic. "I know it sounds cliché," the Ohio singer-songwriter-pianist tells The BoomBox with a hint of amusement in his voice. "But I have to describe my music as love. I think everyone can relate to that."
Indeed, the crooner, who was signed by producer Kerry "Krucial" Brothers and Grammy-winning superstar Alicia Keys to the Krucial Noise imprint in 2010, wears his heart on his sleeve.
His 2011 mixtape 'Love & Stadiums' is huge on love, breakups and redemption. With his official EP debut, 'Love & Stadiums II,' led by the Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz-featured track 'Say It's So,' Mateo sat down with The BoomBox to discuss his rising career, working with a modern day R&B icon and why today is the best time to be a musician.
What was the concept behind your mixtape 'Love & Stadiums'?
We were basically just trying to describe the music. The hardest question to always answer is, "What does the music sound like?" I mostly do love songs. But the stadium part comes from the big drums and the instrumentation that we use, which has a big, arena sound. It's that type of music where it really feels like you are in a stadium for a show. That's how we came up with the title.
You were one of the first artists to sign with MySpace Records before signing to Krucial Noise. Why didn't it work out for you?
I'm not sure it totally didn't work out for me. But when I signed to MySpace Records, it was an incubation period for me. I was able to hone in on my style and sound of music that we were trying to create. When I signed to MySpace, I did so thinking that music was going towards new media and online and that being with MySpace would be a really good look. But that didn't work out as well as I had planned, but on the flip side I became a better artist. We put out a live EP a couple of years back ['Get To Know Me: Live at Swing House']. We started forming online and blog relationships. But by the time I was ready, MySpace was on the decline and I was ready to get out. And it was all perfect timing. We had already gone on tour and made a lot of relationships in the business. We were really prepared for the next situation to come about.
Watch Mateo's 'Say It's So' Video
Let's talk about that situation for a moment. You were able to sign with Kerry "Krucial" Brothers' label Krucial Noise. What does it mean to be associated with someone that has been a huge part of the career of a superstar artist like Alicia Keys?
It's amazing. I first got to meet Kerry through a VJ at MTV's 'TRL.' We were trying to get Kerry to do a remix on one of my records that was coming out. Since then, we just kind of kept in contact and when I was leaving MySpace he was like, "Yo, I'm starting a new label. I want you to be my first artist." And that was perfect for me because I knew the standard of music that he's created with Alicia Keys. It's been unparalleled. The music that they have created has helped to define the first 10 years of the century. What I loved about their sound is it was authentic and it was different. They were never trying to chase radio. Kerry and Alicia stuck to being themselves and yet they were able to go mainstream. And they won with that. That's something that I wanted for my career and music.
What was the biggest change for you after signing to Krucial Noise?
I went from working out of a bedroom studio to working at a huge studio with all the equipment you could ever want. Kerry and Alicia are the type to get gear. If they need a vintage guitar they will go out and get it and that's very rare today because all the sounds are made from computers. It's a really great experience. It ups my standards in terms of the music making process.
You have several guests on the mixtape including Goapele — on the track 'Don't Shoot Me Down' — who is viewed as one of the most underrated R&B vocalists of her era. What was it like recording with such a talent?
She has one of the most beautiful voices. It's one of those things where there are people who have had training to sing. But with her, it's all about God-given talent. The sound and texture of her voice is amazing. And she is one of the most underrated artists out there. It was a pleasure working with her. And we also have backing vocals from Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz on the song 'Say It's So,' which is featured on my EP 'Love & Stadiums II.'
'Don't Shoot Me Down' samples and takes the name of Lil Wayne's original track from 'Tha Carter III' album. What made you use that groove?
It's funny. A while back ago I was playing around the idea of it. I loved that Wayne track because it sounded a little alternative… it had that gangsta bass in there as well. We just started kind of flipping it and it came out great. I played it for Kerry and he liked the record. And I was Lil Wayne fan. I just think that what he is able to do is so different. It's the same way I feel about Kanye West. Urban music is going into the direction where you are incorporating a lot of different genres and influences. The sounds could even come from overseas. I think that's really dope. This is a great time to make music.
Watch an Interview With Mateo
You come from a very diverse musical family. How did that impact you?
My grandfather was a pretty big jazz and blues guitarist in Ohio, which is where I'm from. He played for King Records, which was based in Cincinnati. He was playing for James Brown and Charles Brown and a lot of different artists. And my grandmother on my dad's side of the family was a touring singer and musician. She's the biggest diva in the world. She will wear a gown right now and kill it [laughs].
So music was in your blood, huh?
Yes! And my dad plays guitar. So when I came into this world they were like, "You are going to do something musically." I started playing classical piano at five and I started performing at every Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday without will [laughs]. But I never wanted to do music professionally. I thought it was dead-end, so I went the regular path of going to college. But music was always around me.
What can fans expect from your first studio album?
The music is coming out amazing. It's the best music that I have ever created. There are some defining songs. When we come out with it [in 2012] it will definitely stand out. It's all about love and relationships. But it's that feel you don't get from urban music today. My sound is very euphoric. It feels like you want to scream it out. It's like performing at a Coldplay concert. It's really anthemic.

The new content requires the full version of Ghosts to play and offers up a plethora of content including four new maps, a dual mode weapon, and a new episode of the alien invasion game, Extinction. For me Ghosts was filled with frustration on the multi play side as I found many maps were too large and encouraged camping, which as anyone who has been spawn killed numerous times in a row will tell you, leads quickly to frustration.

How is this a Jam. Practically no one thinks he should be taken with the 3rd pick. If the Jazz take a guard with #3, then they should not take Jimmer with #12. If the Jazz go big with #3, take Jimmer if he is available

If Jimmer is there at 12 we have to take him, if we pick a big guy, or who cares lets take a chance Knight and Jimmer in the back court could be scary good.

If Jimmer is available at #12 and the Jazz fail to take him, my trust in the
Jazz to correctly evaluate talent will be completely shattered.
Even if the Jazz take Brandon Knight at #3, they would be wise to take Jimmer at #12.
The Jazz desperately need outside shooting and Jimmer is without question the most deadly outside shooter in this draft, with unlimited range that will force teams to guard him as soon as he crosses half court.

Jazz need to avoid the circus. Jimmer is not worthy of the 3 pick and will hopefully be gone by the 12th pick. If he is still around at the 12th pick KOC will have to show his cards and pass on the over-hyped Jimmer.

If he is there at 12 take him. If not prepared for him to light you up everytime
you play him. And then all the (we won't call them haters) doubters will want

Take Jimmer at 12...but I do not know if he will be there.
If Jazz pass Jimmer at 12....He will be living in Phoenix for about 12 years.
Always take the best player available...these guys are assets. Harris and Milsap are also movable assets. Okur and Fess are imovable assets...CJ is a Liability.

Why oh why is everyone concerned?
KOC will make his pick, it will be wrong and a bust again, we will wait for another draft and the cycle will start all over again. If KOC were on the draft table himself, he would not even be picked in the second round.

RE: Shaybo - Knight at #3 is no brains.
Catchy little saying you have, but... it is WAY off the mark:
Kentucky's Brandon Knight is not your average student-athlete. His GPA coming out of High School, was an impressive 4.3. The last time he scored a B was in elementary school. When he came to the University of Kentucky, he already had 22 hours of college credit under his belt and his GPA from the first semester was an impressive 4.0.

Yet again, dear Jazz, take Jimmer at 3. If you take him at 3 and his defense
turns out to be a significant liability, you will be forgiven for taking a
chance on this home town phenom, the most popular player in the history of the
state of Utah. If you don't take him at 3, he will not be around at 12, and
will turn into another franchise's hero, and the Jazz brass will be second
guessed for the duration of Jimmer's lengthy career. The Jazz is not in a
quandry. You make the inteligent move, the opportunity of a generation, or you
don't make the move.
The players they are thinking of taking at 3 are far less proven than Jimmmer. They simply vertically superior, that is it. That is what I call risky.
Jazz, you will forever have the chance to draft height. There is simply nothing special at all about those guys. You have one chance to draft the Jimmer. Take him at 3,or take heed from the warning of Lavell Edwards, "You've been Jimmmered!!!!"

Looking at Kevin's history with the Jazz, what makes anybody believe there's a
chance he'll get it right this time?
The last ten years, not even the #1 pick in the entire league has produced a champion.
Fire KO'C and hang the dartboard on Greg's office wall.
It couldn't possibly produce worse results than Kevin's choices over the years.

I think Kevin will package the #3 pick with Millsap and/or an expiring contract for a trade for a veteran big. I think they will use the #12 on Jimmer or a point guard. I wouldn't use both picks (rookies) to young

A Hamilton County man facing animal abuse and aggravated menacing charges appeared in court on Monday for arraignment.
Bond was set at $100,000 for Standley Bryant, 59, of Lincoln Heights, Ohio.
Witnesses claim Bryant picked up a dog off the ground by its chain, choking the dog. He also allegedly hit the mixed-breed dog multiple times on the head with a shovel and belt.
Bryant then threatened a neighbor he believed called the police on him. Bryant said he would shoot the woman in the face and kill her kids and family once he was released from jail.
At his arraignment, Bryant told the judge if he hadn't struck the dog, it would have bitten him. The next court date will be March 4 at the Hamilton County Courthouse.
The dog was turned over to the SPCA for treatment.

(Ivanhoe Newswire) -- Taking antidepressants may reduce the chances of developing the heart condition called mental stress-induced myocardial ischemia (MSIMI).
Researchers at Duke University conducted a study using 127 participants who had MSIMI, and randomly assigned each participant either the antidepressant Lexapro or a placebo. At the final assessment after six weeks, the participants were put through a round of stress tests, then their heart function was tested. Researchers found that those who had taken the antidepressants were 2.62 times less likely to develop MSIMI during the stress tests. Those who had taken Lexapro also reported feeling more in control and feeling calmer compared to those who had taken the placebo.

But there was a time when I would have said about a fat girl, "She's a beast." I'm not a beast like that. I'm an animal. Fur, claws, you name it. Everything about me is an animal, except the inside. On the inside, I'm human still.Grizzlyguy: Ditto here.BeastNYC: It's really hard for me because before I was a beast, I was . . . well, beautiful. Cool, popular, rich. Like, my friends at school, they'd elected me their prince.Grizzlyguy: Elected? Prince?Froggie: princ not elcted Bst……i ws a princ onceBeastNYC: It's a long story.Froggie: i ws a princ Mr. Anderson: We have nothing but time, Beast. Talk to us.BeastNYC: <sigh> OK. It all started because of a witch.Froggie: thts hw they all strtPart I: A Prince and a WitchChapter OneI could feel everyone looking at me, but I was used to it. One thing my dad taught me early and often was to act like nothing moved me. When you're special, like we were, people were bound to notice. It was the last month before the end of ninth grade. The substitute teacher was giving out ballots for spring dance court, something I'd normally have thought was lame. "Hey, Kyle, your name's on this." My friend, Trey Parker flicked my arm."No duh." When I turned Trey's way, the girl next to him – Anna, or maybe Hannah – looked down. Huh. She'd been staring at me.I examined the ballot. Not only was my name, Kyle Kingsbury, there for ninth grade prince, but I was the sure winner. No one could compete with my looks and my dad's cash. The sub was a new one who might still have been under the mistaken impression that because Tuttle was the type of school that had a salad bar in the cafeteria and offered courses in Mandarin Chinese – i.e., a school where the serious money people in New York sent their kids – we weren't going to bust on him like public school dregs. Big mistake. It wasn't like anything the sub said was going to be on an exam, so we were trying to figure out how to make reading the ballot and scratching in our choices take the entire fifty minute period. At least most of us were. The rest were texting each other. I watched the ones who were filling out their ballots, glancing over at me. I smiled. Someone else might have looked down, trying to act all shy and modest, like they were ashamed of having their name there – but it doesn't make sense to deny the obvious."My name's there too." Trey flicked my arm again."Hey, watch it!" I rubbed my arm."Watch it yourself. You've got this stupid grin on your face like you already won, and now you're giving the paparazzi a chance to snap your picture.""And that's wrong?" I grinned wider, to bug him, and gave a little wave like people in parades. Someone's camera phone snapped at just that moment, like an exclamation point."You shouldn't be allowed to live," Trey said."Why, thank you." I thought about voting for Trey, just to be nice. Trey was good for comic relief, but not too gifted in the looks department. His family were nobody special either – his dad was a doctor or something. They might post the vote totals in the school newspaper, and it'd be pretty embarrassing for Trey if he came in last or even didn't get any votes at all.On the other hand, it would be cool if I got two or three times the votes of the next-closest person. And besides, Trey worshipped me. A real friend would want me to win big. That's another thing my dad always said: "Don't be a sucker, Kyle and do things out of friendship or love. Because what you always end up finding out is, the only one who really loves you, is you." I was seven or eight when he first said that, and I asked, "What about you, Dad?""What?""You love . . ." Me. "Us. Your family."He gave me a long look before saying, "That's different, Kyle."I never asked him again if he loved me. I knew he'd told the truth the first time.I folded my ballot over, to keep Trey from seeing I'd voted for myself. Of course, I knew he voted for himself too, but that was different. That's when a voice came from the back of the room."This is disgusting!"We all turned. "Maybe someone left a booger under her desk," Trey whispered."Was it you?" I said. "I don't do that anymore.""Disgusting," the voice repeated. I stopped talking to Trey and looked at where the voice was coming from, this Goth freak sitting in back. She was a fat chick, dressed in the kind of flowing, black clothes you usually only see on witches or terrorists (We don't have uniforms at Tuttle. It would piss off the parents, not to be able to buy Dolce & Gabbana) and her hair was green. Obviously a cry for help. Weird thing was, I'd never noticed her before. Most people here, I'd known my whole life. The sub was too stupid to ignore her. "What's disgusting Miss . . . Miss . . .""Hilferty," she said. "Kendra Hilferty.""Kendra, is there something wrong with your desk?""There is something wrong with this world." She stood like she was making a speech. "Something very wrong when it's the twenty-first century and this type of elitist travesty is still being perpetuated." She held up her ballot. People giggled. "It's a ninth grade dance ballot," Trey volunteered. "To choose the royalty.""Exactly," the girl said. "Who are these people? Why should they be treated as royalty? Based upon . . . what? The people on this ballot were chosen on one basis and one basis only – physical beauty.""Sounds like a good basis to me," I said to Trey, not-too-softly. I stood. "That's BS. Everyone voted, and this is who they chose. It's a democratic process."Around me, there were some thumbs-ups, some, Yeah, mans, particularly from Anna or Hannah. But I noticed that a lot of people, mostly the ugly people, were silent. The girl took a few steps toward me. "They're sheep, following the herd. They vote for the so-called popular people because it's simple. Surface beauty – blond hair, blue eyes . . ." She was looking at me. ". . . is always easy to recognize. But if someone is braver, stronger, smarter, that's harder to see."She pissed me off, so I jumped on her. "If someone's so smart, they'd figure out how to get better-looking. You could lose weight, get plastic surgery, even get your face scraped and your teeth bleached." I emphasized the you in the sentence, so she'd know I meant her, and not just some general sort of you. "My dad's a network news guy. He says people shouldn't have to look at ugly people.""Is that what you think?" She raised a dark eyebrow. "That we should all transform ourselves to be as you want us to be, Kyle Kingsbury?"I started at my name. I was sure I'd never seen her before. But of course she knew me. Everyone did. Probably had some pathetic crush on me. "Yeah," I said. "Yeah. That's what I think. That's what I know."She walked toward me. Her eyes were light green and her nose was long and hooked down. "Then you'd better hope you never get ugly, Kyle. You are ugly now, on the inside where it matters most, and if you ever lost your good looks, I bet you wouldn't be smart or strong enough to get them back. Kyle Kingsbury, you are beastly."Beastly. The word was from another time and place. It made me think of fairy tales, and I felt this weird tingling, like the hairs on my arms had caught fire from her eyes. I brushed it off.

In 1885, Miss Helen Purcell's kindness and charity founded this community.To this day, and always, not-for-profit Helen Purcell places people over profits.
The original Helen Purcell Home was founded following the death of Miss Purcell, who provided in her will for the establishment of a non-denominational retirement home for women who were alone in the world.
Chartered in 1885, The Helen Purcell Home began operation in a building that had previously housed the Putnam Seminary. In the late 1930's, The Helen Purcell Home was relocated to its present location on the O.N. Townsend homestead, on Norwood Boulevard.
Many are the stories about the people and events involving Helen Purcell. Here is one addition to that history we just want to mention: Helen Purcell now cares for gentlemen as well as ladies.

Wergin's or Devil's stone is a rough unworked stone 4'10" high set in socket in irregular pentagonal base. Gough's descrip is of two stones, one upright and the other across it, probably the remains of a Cromlech in a meadow called Wergins. (3)
The second name probably derives from 1641-2 when both stones were mysteriously moved 240 paces from their original position. One required nine yoke of oxen to restore to its former site. (1)(3)(4)
Unworked stone 1.4m high and 0.6m x 0.3m wide and deep, socketed into irregular pentagonal base 1.3m across by 0.3m high. Lower stone could be cross base. (2)
Large stone probably designed at distant period as boundary. During Civil Wars it is stated to have been moved in night a considerable distance so that 12 yoke were hardly equal to restore it. Blount "a meer stone 12 ton weight removed AD 1642". In parochial collections "lies the stone so wondrously removed since called the Devils Stone." Britannia: "were placed two large stones for watermark. One erect, the other athwart. In late repairs c1652 removed 240 paces, nobody knew how, brought back to their place again, one required nine yoke to draw it". (6)
