Magazine of the painting blogosphere.
Thomas Micchelli reviews Dying on Stage: New Painting in New York, curated by Kyle Chayka, at Garis & Hahn, on view through July 20, 2013.
Micchelli writes that the show, which features works by Ariel Dill, Clare Grill, Kristina Lee, Sarah Faux, and Tatiana Berg, "is predicated on the belief that 'mundanely subjective perceptions can yield extraordinary insights,' and it succeeds within its own boundaries. While those boundaries are rather narrow, in a broader context Casualism, with its humble anti-heroics, acts as a necessary corrective to the overblown production values that have carried away most of the market's high end as well as the lion's share of media attention. Casualism's importance lies as much in the immediate, restorative transaction between artist and artwork as it does in its philosophical open-endedness."
Valerie Brennan interviews painter Kristina Lee about her work.
Lee notes: "I have an archive of screenshots from action movies and YouTube clips that I was referring to a lot in the past. The images are of women engaged in physical and violent acts like wrestling, boxing, and 'girl-fights.' Watching video and looking at video stills allowed me to focus on specific actions that represent the kind of movement I'm interested in, which is very physical, yet choreographed and graceful... The process in making the paintings is very layered. I start with a ground color that typically gets covered in the end, but it gives me a starting point and something to work off. Everything from then on is a series of reactions."
Edited by artist Brett Baker, Painters' Table highlights writing from the painting blogosphere as it is published and serves as a platform for exploring blogs that focus primarily on the subject of painting.

Online petition to stop summer fireworks at SeaWorld gains support
SAN DIEGO - Some San Diegans are looking to put an end to a summer tradition -- SeaWorld's fireworks show.
It's like clockwork every summer night in America's Finest City. San Diegans from miles around can hear or see SeaWorld's fireworks display just before the park closes for the night.
"My apartment, where I live, it faces straight toward the fireworks," said Pacific Beach resident Marcelo Amaya.
Amaya said the nightly show doesn't bother him, adding, "They're awesome, I mean, it's just like a nice touch of San Diego like every day of the week."
The show goes on for 66 consecutive nights, but that's not OK with Point Loma resident Alana Coons.
"It affects wildlife, it affects pets, it affects the animals at SeaWorld," Coons said.
But she said that's not all.
"There's also the harm it does to people suffering from PTSD," said Coons.
Coons decided she would try to do something about it by starting an online petition calling for SeaWorld to stop the shows. From San Diego to the UK, more than 2,000 people have joined the effort.
10News asked Coons why she moved to Point Loma knowing how loud the fireworks might be here, and she replied, "You know, actually I didn't. I moved here knowing there were planes here."
SeaWorld officials told 10News they are in accordance with city of San Diego ordinances, as well as national pollutant discharge elimination permits. They also issued this statement:
"This culmination of our daily summer nights program has been enjoyed by tens of millions of park guests as well as area residents, and we continue to receive very positive feedback."
Coons suggested SeaWorld replace the fireworks with a high-tech laser show.
She said she hopes to take the petition to the City Council.

CLAIM: Madonna Forced Toronto Film Festival Staffers to Face Away From Her
"Does Madonna Really Require Staff Volunteers To Face A Wall In Her Presence?" asks Perez Hilton, who rarely has answers.
According to the blogger, volunteers at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) were "forced to face a wall upon Madonna's entrance backstage."
He adds, "The volunteers were not allowed to grab a glimpse of the superstar as she made her way backstage to the press conference."
A horrified Perez exclaims, "WOW!!!" and editorializes, "This just sounds horrible!"
Wow, Perez's reporting is horrible.
Journalism's joker, once again, ran with a story without bothering to fact-check.
Gossip Cop, however, reached out to Madonna's people to get to the bottom of this.
The superstar's rep tells us, "This would NEVER had been mandated by Madonna or her security," noting that if it really did happen, the "TIFF people did it."
Check out PHOTOS of Madonna's amazing figure!

Today February 10 the Moon moves into conjunction with Jupiter in Cancer. Early this morning at 2:30am I woke up and saw this outside my window. Setting in the west, it was hazy but a pretty sight. The Moon is nearly full. If I wake up again tomorrow at 2:30am they will be right next to each other! So if you are a night owl or just having a little insomnia like me, take a look outside at any time after about 10:00pm tonight and you'll see the conjunction. It should be a clear night, better than last night.
The Full Moon in Leo will be on February 14, Valentine's Day. Need I say more? This could be a very romantic weekend. If single, unattached, shower your love on your friends or do something nice for someone else. What goes around comes around.
Reminder: The Market Basket in Franklin Lakes, Bergen County has a nice selection of soups and other hearty entrees to warm you up on a cold winter's night. Stop in and treat yourself!

There's a big hill between western Mexico's booming resort town of Cabo San Lucas and the nearby Capella Pedregal, the country's recently voted No. 1 hotel. But guests don't show up huffing and puffing from a long climb -- thanks to a private, 1,000-foot-long tunnel carved through the hill. The tunnel also puts night spots in Cabo San Lucas like El Squid Roe, the Giggling Marlin and Cabo Wabo within walking distance of the hotel.
Still, guests tend to stick around the Capella, often in the private plunge pools in the hotel's suites, villas and casitas. Or getting rubdowns in its 12,000-square-foot oceanfront spa. Or for chats around their room's fire pit. Or for in-room meals whipped up by their own major domo. No wonder readers of the prestigious Travel + Leisure magazine recently named the 96-room Capella on the tip of the Baja Peninsula as Mexico's top resort.
Zip across the Sea of Cortes to the mainland, and you'll find the country's No. 2 hotel – the St. Regis Punta Mita -- about 20 miles up the coast from Puerto Vallarta on the Riviera Nayarit. (That's quite an honor for Starwood Hotels' St. Regis, since Punta Mita – anchoring the northern end of a 50-mile-long bay -- is the home of a cluster of uber-luxury hotels.) Spread out over 1,500 acres, features of the 120-room St. Regis include a tennis center nestled in a palm grove, a 10,000-square-foot spa and not one but two Jack Nicklaus signature golf courses.
The No. 3 pick of Travel + Leisure's readers is the Rosewood Mayakoba on the country's Caribbean coast south of Cancun and a little north of Playa del Carmen. Here, dotting a maze of lagoons, 130 posh suites suspended over the water offer such amenities as private plunge pools, rooftop sundecks, over-sized terraces and their own boat docks. Called "Sense," the property's 12,000-square-foot spa (on its own little island) has 12 treatment rooms offering "a pure wellness experience."
The reader spotlight goes back to the tip of the Baja Peninsula for choice No. 4: the One&Only Palmilla north of Cabo San Lucas and a little south of San Jose del Cabo. (That's a lot of Cabos, or capes, which is why the 20-mile-long resort area is called Los Cabos.) Featured on the property are 172 airy rooms decked out with floor-to-ceiling windows offering spectacular views of the Sea of Cortes. It's said "romance fills the air at the One&Only" (listen close and you might hear midnight guitar serenades coming from a little cove on the beach).
The last of Mexico's "Big 5" hotels is inland at the iconic Four Seasons Hotel in Mexico City. Looking much like a stunning high-rise hotel with the charm of a colonial hacienda, the 240-room resort is accented by tropical gardens packed with old-world courtyards, fruit trees, orchids and the like. A popular option is outdoor dining under the stars.
Mexico's five runners up to the "Big 5" in the Travel + Leisure poll were (in descending order): the Banyon Tree, also in the high-end Mayakoba area of the Riviera Maya; Le Blanc Spa Resort in Cancun; Rosewood's Las Ventanas al Paraiso just outside Cabo San Lucas; Esperanza, an Auberge Resort, up the coast from Cabo San Lucas; and the Four Seasons Punta Mita on the Riviera Nayarit.
Results of the magazine's survey of Mexico's most luxurious properties were reported in a reader poll of global hotels, destinations, cruises and other travel products in the new issue of Travel + Leisure's World's Best Awards for 2014.

The number of jobs for court reporters–now 21,500 nationwide–is expected to grow 18 percent from 2008 through 2018, and the U.S. Bureau of Labor rates the career prospects "excellent." In the Bay Area and Sacramento, "there's a real shortage–I'm always looking for the best students to hire," said Rhett Simmons, who owns a Sacramento-based employment agency called West Coast Captioning. Freelance captioners who work with college students and at conventions earn $80 to $150 an hour. UC Berkeley has six captioners on staff who start at $60,000 per school year, plus benefits (San Jose Mercury News, 2010).
In the Bay Area, only two colleges and one private school still offer court reporting programs–in Saratoga, Novato, and Dublin. Our program, approved by the Court Reporters Board of California, is one of the best in the state.

Today, you get to enjoy the talents of a very horny grandma named Pamela. While most of her friends are enjoying bingo and knitting, this granny is out getting her cunt crammed every day and showing that just because you retire from working, doesn't mean that you have to retire from having sex. Check out these video clips of this adult bitch in action. Today, we get to see her in the bedroom with her much younger man. Pamela has discovered that it's only the younger fellows that can keep up with her out of control sex drive.
Pamela knows exactly what this guy wants and with her years of sexual experience, she can definitely give it to them. She's practically a pro at sucking ramrod and can do things with her mouth that could make any man melt. Of course, this grandma wants her experienced cookie drilled too. She likes to say that she keeps in shape by having lots and lots of sex. It's fantastic some of the moves that this granny can do in the bedroom. There's no slowing her down until she gets her lover off. That's when explodes all over her glamorous face. I wonder what the chicks at the bingo hall would think of that.

Navy's Annie-Norah Beveridge
Oct. 30, 2013
Patriot League Cross Country Championships Central | Results
CENTER VALLEY, Pa. - All 10 schools will compete for the Patriot League Men and Women's Cross Country Championships on Saturday at Lafayette's Metzgar Athletics Complex, and the results from the 2013 season indiciate the races will be wide open for team and individual titles.
The competition will start with the men's 8K race at 11 a.m., followed by the women's 6K at 12 p.m. The top finisher in each race is named the individual champion for the Patriot League, while the highest-finishing freshman takes home the Rookie of the Year honor. A Patriot League Coach of the Year will also be voted on for both the men and the women. The top-seven finishers in each race earn first-team All-Patriot League status, while places eight through 14 receive second-team All-League honors.
The Navy women and Lehigh men will each be looking to defend their titles, but there will be plenty of competition in the races. There are six men's and four women's teams in the latest USTFCCCA regional rankings, while 14 individuals and nine teams have won meet titles in 2013.
Navy was picked first in the preseason on both the men and women's side, with the Mids edging Lehigh in the men's poll and taking home all possible first-place votes for a decisive selection on the women's side. The Navy men maintain that top spot among League squads in the USTFCCCA regional rankings coming into the race, as the Mids stand at No. 6 in the Mid-Atlantic Region with the defending champion Mountain Hawks close behind at No. 8. Lehigh has emerged as the highest-ranked team on the women's side, with the Mountain Hawks at No. 7 in the Mid-Atlantic followed by American at No. 11.
Navy junior Annie-Norah Beveridge will be looking to defend her individual title in the women's race, as she won last year's race at Colgate by nearly 20 seconds before going on to compete in the NCAA Championships. Beveridge won a pair of meet titles this season, and also claimed first place in a dual matchup with rival Army. Boston University's Rosa Moriello is the only other multi-meet winner this season, while others who have won a meet include Army's Madison Hill, Bucknell's Montana Dipietrantonio, Lafayette's Rose Willey and Loyola Maryland's Kiera Harrison, who won the Leopard Invitational at Metzgar Athletics Complex two weeks ago.
Beveridge is one of three first-team All-Patriot League honorees who return in 2013. Colgate's Olivia Brackett finished fifth and Navy's Kelley Robinson was sixth in each runner's freshman campaign last season, with Brackett earning the Rookie of the Year honor. Second-team All-Patriot League honorees who return to the course are Willey (9th), Bucknell's Deanna Godby (10th) and Katie Jessee (13th) and Lehigh's Ingrid Simon (11th).
The top-four finishers from last year's men's race have either moved on or been sidelined in 2013, leaving Lehigh's Ryan Mahalsky (5th) and Tyler Mueller (7th) as first-team All-Patriot League honorees who have been active this season. Returning second-team All-League selections include Army's Ricardo Galindo (9th) and Kendall Ward (14th), Navy's Robert Patterson (10th) and American's Nick Regan (11th).
While the list of returning All-League honorees is short, the winner's list from 2013 is quite impressive. Regan is the only three-time meet winner in the Patriot League, while Navy's Steve Schroeder, last year's Rookie of the Year, has won a pair of races. The others who have won a race this year include Mahalsky, Mueller, Ward, Navy's Justin Maguire, Bucknell's Michael McGowan and Boston University's Alec Olson. Another runner to watch is Boston University's Rich Peters, who placed second in his most recent race at the New England Championships on Oct. 12 and qualified for the NCAA Championships last season.
Nine Patriot League teams won a meet title in 2013, with the American men claiming three crowns while the AU women and Navy men and women each won a pair. American swept the men and women's titles at the Leopard Invitational on Oct. 19, beating out multiple Patriot League schools on the course that will host the League Championships.

Patriot League Championship Notebook
Navy Men, Lehigh Women Lead Patriot League Squads in USTFCCCA Regional Rankings
On the men's side, Navy (No. 6) maintains the top spot among League squads in the USTFCCCA Mid-Atlantic Region, but is closely followed by Lehigh (No. 8), American (No. 11) and Bucknell (No. 15). The Mountain Hawks moved up four spots after their fifth-place showing at the Princeton Invitational. The men's Northeast Region has Army (No. 11) and Boston University (No. 12), putting six Patriot League teams into the rankings this week.
The Lehigh women maintained their position as the highest-ranked Patriot League team in the Mid-Atlantic Region as they bumped up two places to No. 7. American entered the rankings at No. 11 after winning the Leopard Invitational, and was followed by Bucknell (No. 14) and Navy (No. 15).

14 Patriot Leaguers Reach the Winner's Circle in 2013
American's Nick Regan became the first Patriot League runner to take home three individual titles when he won the Leopard Invitational on Oct. 19. Regan also claimed the title at the Mount St. Mary's 5K Duals and Catholic Invitational, leading the Eagles to the team title in all three races. Two-time winners include Boston University's Rosa Moriello and Navy's Steve Schroeder and Annie-Norah Beveridge, who also added a dual meet win against Army on Oct. 18. The 10 others who have won a race this season include Navy's Justin Maguire (Sea Gull Opener), Army's Kendall Ward (Army Open), Bucknell's Michael McGowan (Bison Open), Boston University's Alec Olson (Ted Owen Invitational) and Lehigh's Ryan Mahalsky (Lehigh Invitational) and Tyler Mueller (Princeton Invitational) on the men's side, with Army's Madison Hill (Army Open), Bucknell's Montana Dipietrantonio (Bison Open), Lafayette's Rose Willey (Lehigh Invitational) and Loyola Maryland's Kiera Harrison (Leopard Invitational) also finishing as winners of women's races. Army's Ricardo Galindo won the men's dual meet against rival Navy, while Lehigh's Mueller and Ingrid Simon were also dual meet winners against rival Lafayette and Bucknell's Dylan Cowell did so against Bloomsburg.
Nine Patriot League Squads with Meet Titles
If season results are any indication, American and Navy will be tough to beat in both the men and women's races at the Patriot League Championship. The Eagles added their third men's title and second women's crown of the season when they swept the titles at the Leopard Invitational. The Navy men and women also have a pair of meet titles to their credit. Five other teams have won one race, including the Boston University women, Bucknell men, Holy Cross women and Lehigh men and women.
Navy Sweeps Patriot League Cross Country Polls
The Navy women were unanimously projected to win the 2013 Patriot League Cross Country Championship by their peers, while the Mids edged defending champion Lehigh on the men's side to take first place in both of the sport's preseason polls announced on Aug. 22.
Navy has won the past two and four of the last six Patriot League Women's Cross Country Championships, and its peers recognized that dominance by giving all of their 18 first-place votes to the Mids for a total of 162 points. Bucknell came in second place with 144 points and two first-place votes, as coaches and sports information directors were not permitted to vote for their own school. Rounding out the women's poll were Army (117), Boston University (116), Lehigh (101), Loyola University Maryland (76), Colgate (70), Lafayette (44), Holy Cross (42) and American (28).
The men's poll was much closer, a reflection of last year's Patriot League Championship where Lehigh edged Navy by two points to win its first title and end the Mids' four-year run at the top. The Mids took first place in the preseason poll by a two-point margin over the Mountain Hawks, 153-151, even though Lehigh had 10 first-place votes to nine for Navy. The rest of the poll went in order of American (121), Boston University (115/one first-place vote), Army (100), Bucknell (90), Colgate (59), Holy Cross (46), Loyola (Md.) (36) and Lafayette (29).

In today's business environment, many companies recognize the need to streamline their operations. It allows them to stay ahead of the curve, remain competitive and cut costs. Although there are many ways for businesses to do this, one that is of benefit to any company is using check printing software. According to examiner.com, check printing software is a convenience that is an economically sound choice, not only for large corporations but also for small businesses that operate from the kitchen table.
There are numerous options available for companies that are looking for check printing software. It really depends upon their needs, as well as their budget and any related software that is being used. This article provides a brief overview of how to choose a check printing program according to the needs of those that are using it.
Decide What the Business Requires - Since there are so many options for check printing software available, it's important to look for one that is going to match the specific needs of the business. In some cases, the only thing that is necessary is to format the checks and print them. In that case, a standalone program will typically be enough. For businesses that have greater needs, such as printing payroll checks or sending regular checks to vendors, a more complex program may be necessary. This type of check printing program may work along with your accounting program to streamline the process.
Look at the Options - Among the different options that are available with check printing programs are integration, security and MICR check printing. The options should be considered along with the needs of the business. There may also be specific features available, depending upon the program that is chosen. It is a good idea to review all of the programs which match the needs of the business to determine if one would be a better choice.
Consider the Setup - If checks are being printed on a desktop printer for a home based business, most check printing programs will be able to do a professional job. Some companies, however, may need additional security features, including MICR check printing and secure check signing. Higher end check printing programs are available to suit the needs of those businesses that require more robust features.
Look at the Budget - Many businesses are operating on a budget and there are various options available for check printing programs to meet any budget. The cost of the software typically increases according to the features and security options that are available.
Businesses of all sizes can take advantage of the convenience and financial savings available when printing their own checks. From printing one check daily to hundreds of checks regularly, this type of software can help streamline the business and give it a more professional look. The business world has come a long way from handwritten checks and the potential problems that existed with them. By using the right check printing program, any business can benefit and is more likely keep up with the competition.

There is a newly popular option out there for seniors to consider when they want to get their hands on money: a reverse mortgage. Contemporary seniors are living longer, meaning their pensions do not go as far as they used to. They have to make ends meet for longer, so they skimp on the things they thought they would do when they were free of professional responsibilities like traveling. A lot of seniors live long enough to need assistance in the home or they have to make changes, like adding a stair lift, ramp, and adapting bathrooms for safety. This all costs money.
Emergency Money
With the option to open a reverse mortgage, men and women in their retirement years have discovered funds to take holidays around the world, replace old cars, fix up their homes the way they want them, or to address emergencies. The furnace dies, so an elderly person needs to replace it. His pension is inadequate, so he takes out a reverse mortgage. The benefit is that he not only pays for the furnace but also has money for other things.
Not Easy Money
Reverse mortgage facts make it clear that this is not easy money, even though it seems like that at first. There are a number of fees to pay, although they can be absorbed into the end costs. These are satisfied with the sale of a home at which time a loan is repaid all at once to the lender.
Meet a Counselor
It is also important that seniors not feel pushed to make a decision for a reverse mortgage because of the need for money in a hurry. The process cannot be rushed. In fact, the U.S. government insists consumers meet with a counselor before signing up, so there is no way to get an application accepted in just 24 hours.
More Facts
Even if you are a senior aged 62 or beyond, this program is only available under certain circumstances. Here are some more reverse mortgage facts:
• You have to be the owner of the home, with no remaining mortgage payments to make
• This has to be the home you live in all or most of the time
• It has to be big enough to qualify (that is, more than 1 bedroom)
• Some condos and modular homes qualify, but not all
If you are approaching the age of 62 and the idea of release equity to enhance quality of life sounds appealing, there are several unbiased online resources.

2002 Hyundai Tiburon Body Kits
2002 Hyundai Tiburon body kits are custom exterior parts that can be installed to enhance and rejuvenate a vehicle's appearance. After years of wear and tear, the exterior parts on many cars starts to look old and ugly. Any damage to a car's paint or to the exterior parts themselves can depreciate a vehicle's value, making the use of bodykits is just that much more important. A body kits can change a vehicle look better, without ever changing any of the true mechanics of the vehicle.
Some aftermarket 2002 Hyundai Tiburon body kits upgrades come with replacements for a couple of components, ground effects and side panels. These are the areas of a vehicle that are often damaged from daily driving, but these alone aren't the only parts that can be easily replaced. Other custom body paneling can be used to upgrade a vehicle's look, so 2002 Hyundai Tiburon body kits can often be customized to a car owner's specific desires. For an improved appearance that replaces the old looks came from years of driving, a cool body kits can make you smile.

Late goals from David Korman and Greg Corin saw Hendon United A claim a hard fought win against Leeds Maccabi AFC in a lunchtime kick-off at the Gledhow Sports Club, Leeds.
An uneven surface made passing difficult for both sets of players. The game was tight throughout with defences dominating.
Leeds keeper Mark Miller came to his team's rescue when he saved Josh Bentley's penalty after 81 minutes. Their joy was short-lived however, as the hosts were blown away by five minutes of relentless Hendon pressure. Saul Conway fed the ball into Dovid Korman who produced a neat finish to put Hendon ahead. A minute later, Corin waltzed through the Leeds midfield before sending a fierce drive into the roof of the net.
Hendon boss Benjy Wreschner commented: "Overall, I was delighted with the discipline my team showed for the whole game. It was not easy to play football, but they knew what they had to do and I was always confident we would create enough chances to win."
Leeds boss Howard Moss said: "Hendon handled everything we threw at them very well."

Showing My Patriotism
George Washington, 1st U.S. President:
"Religious controversies are always productive of more acrimony and irreconcilable hatreds than those which spring from any other cause. I had hoped that liberal and enlightened thought would have reconciled the Christians so that their religious fights would not endanger the peace of Society." [Notice use of the word their, rather than our, when referring to Christians.]
"There is nothing which can better deserve our patronage than the promotion of science and literature. Knowledge is in every country the surest basis of public happiness."
John Adams, 2nd U.S. President:
"This would be the best of all possible worlds, if there were no religion in it."
"The divinity of Jesus is made a convenient cover for absurdity."
Thomas Jefferson, 3rd U.S. President
"Millions of innocent men, women, and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined, and imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch toward uniformity. What has been the effect of coercion? To make one-half the world fools and the other half hypocrites. To support roguery and error all over the earth."
"The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg."
James Madison , 4th U.S. President
James Madison
, 4th U.S. President:
"Religious bondage shackles and debilitates the mind and unfits it for every noble enterprize, every expanded prospect."
"What influence, in fact, have ecclesiastical establishments had on society? In some instances they have been seen to erect a spiritual tyranny on the ruins of the civil authority; on many instances they have been seen upholding the thrones of political tyranny; in no instance have they been the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wish to subvert the public liberty may have found an established clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate it, needs them not."
Benjamin Franklin, U.S. public official, writer, scientist, printer, and Founding Father:
"In the affairs of the world, men are saved, not by faith, but by the want of it."
"The way to see by faith is to shut the eye of reason."
"Lighthouses are more helpful than churches."
The Reverend Doctor Bird Wilson, an Episcopal minister in
"The founders of our nation were nearly all Infidels, and that of the presidents who had thus far been elected [Washington; Adams; Jefferson; Madison; Monroe; Adams; Jackson] not a one had professed a belief in Christianity.... Among all our presidents from Washington downward, not one was a professor of religion, at least not of more than Unitarianism."
Of course, some of the quotes above were from private letters written to each other and to other confidantes. Judging by other quotes from the early presidents, there seems to be some difference between their public personas and their private convictions. But the U.S. was never meant to be a Christian nation, contrary to popular belief...

The Pentagon zombie apocalypse plan found on the U.S. military's secret computer network reveals that the Pentagon is not only prepared for an apocalypse caused by other foreign countries -- but also by zombies. "Never fear the night of the living dead -- the Pentagon has got you covered," reports CNN on May 16. Usually, documents included on the military's secret computer network are classified and not meant to be seen by the general public. However, a document called "CONOP 8888" is unclassified by the Defense Department and has found its way into the media via the Foreign Policy magazine.
"Buried on the military's secret computer network is an unclassified document, obtained by Foreign Policy, called 'CONOP 8888.' It's a zombie survival plan, a how-to guide for military planners trying to isolate the threat from a menu of the undead -- from chicken zombies to vegetarian zombies and even 'evil magic zombies' -- and destroy them."
CONOP 8888, otherwise known as "Counter-Zombie Dominance," is dated April 30, 2011, and is the Pentagon's zombie apocalypse plan showing that officials from the U.S. Strategic Command are prepared for a planet-wide attack by the walking dead. Navy Capt. Pamela Kunze, a spokeswoman for Strategic Command, acknowledged the document exists on a "secure Internet site," but since the zombie plan is an unclassified document, it can be read in pdf format.
In its Security Instructions section "3. (U)," the document explains the reason for having an unclassified plan against a zombie attack. "This document is unclassified to ensure maximum utility during times of crisis. Classified capabilities used to counter zombies will be addressed in appropriate orders and annexes aadapted [this is how it is spelled in the document] during crisis action planning to adapt the actions in this plan to current operational conditions."
In section "4. (U)," CONOP 8888 continues with the following: "This document contains information affecting the national defense of the United States within the meaning of the Espionage Laws, title 18, United States Code, sections 793 and 794. The transmission or revelation of information contained herein, in any manner, to an unauthorized person is prohibited by law."
According to the secret (but non-secret plan), the purpose of CONOP 8888 is to preserve "non-zombie" humans from the threats posed by a zombie horde, "to establish and maintain a vigilant defensive condition aimed at protecting humankind from zombies, to aid civil authorities in maintaining law and order and restoring basic services during and after a zombie attack," and -- to eradicate zombies.
According to Navy Capt. Pamela Kunze, the 31-page document is reportedly not a U.S. Strategic Command plan but a "training tool used in an in-house training exercise where students learn about the basic concepts of military plans and order development through a fictional training scenario."
However, the Pentagon zombie apocalypse training exercise is impressive, detailed, and addresses all types of zombie life forms including flesh-eating zombies, zombies from outer space, zombies created through radiation, and vegetarian zombies who only feed on vegetation. The rules of engagement with zombies are clearly spelled out within the document. In the event of a worst case scenario zombie attack where lots of zombies are eating lots of people, the government is determined to fight the invaders with all its forces, to prevent panic, and to maintain order in the country.While Defense officials stress that CONOP 8888 is no indication that an invasion of zombies is on the horizon, the document states in its disclaimer that "this plan was not actually designed as a joke."

>Brookings Oregon News, Sports, & Weather | The Curry Coastal Pilot
True role models are those who posses the qualities that we would like have, and those who inspire us to be better people.
My 11-year-old daughter, Alia, is one of those people.
When I watch her interact with people — friends and strangers — I think "Why can't more people be like that? Why can't I be more like that?"
Alia consistently demonstrates a vitality and passion for making her life and the lives of others better. She loves to make people laugh. Often, she is the first to notice that someone is feeling down and tries to lift that person's spirits. Others notice her efforts, too, and are drawn to her.
My daughter, my role model.
One evening, Alia and I were standing in line at the grocery store. Customers were stacking up as the cashiers struggled to keep up. The scene grew tense as patience grew thin.
Suddenly, Alia turned to me and said, in a louder-than-usual voice, "Dad. Do you want to hear a joke?"
I smiled. "Sure."
"What do you call a cow with three legs?"
"I don't know. What do you call a cow with three legs?"
There was a split-second of silence ... then nearly a dozen people around us, including the cashier, burst out laughing.
One girl. One joke. Pure genius.
That's all it took to break a gloomy spell and brighten the lives of others. We laughed about it all the way home.
One recent afternoon, I learned that my daughter had parted ways with a favorite classmate.
"Why?" I asked.
Her classmate, Alia explained, liked to do something called "shopping." She and other students would "cruise the lost and found area" and take for themselves jackets, backpacks or other personal items.
"That's just not right," my daughter said. "That stuff belongs to other people."
My daughter, my role model.
I find there is so much to learn from young people, not only my daughter, but those with whom she associates. It wasn't always that way. When I was younger, I sought direction and inspiration from those older and, I thought, wiser than me. Now, at age 46, it's the opposite.
Fortunately, there are many young people in our community who serve as good role models. Many of them are written about in this newspaper. Like my daughter, they are honest, positive, hardworking and, most of all, they care about others.
My job — and that of all of us older folks — is to support these young people in every way possible; to help them grow into strong, responsible, loving adults.
My passion — and my pleasure — is that they do the same for me.

Our whole family is a huge fan of blue bottle coffee. And what's more perfect with a nice macchiato than a double chocolate cookie? The almond flour gives these cookies a terrific chew, and they're so easy. They are definitely going into the standard cookie rotation around the kitchen, and I think I'm going to have to make these again very soon.
Blue Bottle Coffee Double Chocolate Cookies
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup almond flour
1/3 cup cocoa
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
5 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup muscovado sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 tablespoon vanilla
3.5 ounces dark chocolate chips
Sprinkle of sea salt (optional)
Combine the flours, cocoa, salt and baking soda in a large bowl. Cream the butter and sugars in the bowl of a stand mixer for a few minutes, until light in color. Add the egg and vanilla and allow to combine. Scrape down the sides and add the dry ingredients slowly. Allow to just combine. Using a spatula, stir through and add the chocolate chips. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
Scoop into 1/4 cup portions on a silpat-lined baking sheet, and bake at 350 degrees for 8-12 minutes until the top starts to crackle. Allow to cool for a few minutes before removing from the cookie sheet. Cook too little, and they will be hard to remove from the sheet without tearing. Cook too much, and they will no longer be chewy. I recommend just keeping an eye on them and they will start to look firmed up when they are ready. You can sprinkle with sea salt if you want a little salty crunch.

We all love to hop around from store to store here in Pittsburgh. So here are my top 5 bakery items that make hopping from bakery to bakery well worth all that Easter bunny hopping.
1. Paddy Cake Bakery Donuts. These are seriously the best bargain ever. For years I was buying the occasional dozen donuts from Dunkin Donuts. Boy was I spending too much and getting so little. Not only does Paddy Cake's offer a dozen for $8, but the variety and quality are far superior. More flavors, more size options, more taste and reasons to shop there. Go out and get some now!
2. Vanilla Pastry Studio cupcakes. The going rate around the burgh is $25 for a dozen cupcakes and here is no different. The difference however lies in the quality and taste. These will be the best 25 cupcakes you have ever had. The cake and the frosting are delicious and I can't say that too often about other places. This will be the best $25 you spend ever! Whether it's a special occasion or just because, these cupcakes are well worth the trip over to their new location near Braddock Avenue.
3. Glutteny Bakery. This bakery's claim to fame is their gluten free bakery options. Sometimes that can mean taste free options as well. However this bakery does not have that problem. They have the best gluten free cookies ever! You will not even know you are switching out gluten for gluten free. You could seriously put these out and not speak a word of the switch and no one will know the difference.
4. Whole Food Tiramisu. There is no other favorite dessert of mine than Tiramisu. However they are all not created equal. Once I laid my teeth into Whole Foods on Centre Ave's Tiramisu I knew I could have no other. Their overall presentation is wonderful, the cake is moist, but not soggy, and the layers of sweet cream are perfectly balanced. You even have accented cream that goes around the rectangle dessert that adds just a little bit more sweetness without going overboard. Wonder no more about whether you should try their Tiramisu. It is a paradise in desserts here in the Burgh.
5. Enrico Biscotti Company's Biscotti's. Because why else would you go to a biscotti focused store, but to try their key signature dish, biscotti. Join this delicious, crisp, treat with any of the area's great coffee's. Pick up a few or just one and you will be hooked. No need to go anywhere else for the great cookies. There just isn't a reason in the Burgh, not to hop on over and pick these up, since biscotti doesn't get any better than this. Check them out today and you will never want another biscotti again.

Mark Thompson has commented on several aspects in regards to the upcoming multiplatform video game, "Far Cry 4." In an interview with Rock Paper Shotgun on June 17, the narrative director revealed that Ubisoft is not done with developing experimental projects like "Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon." The standalone expansion came out several months after the third numbered installment. It managed to became a hit with both fans and critics due to its wacky take on classic films from the 1980s.
Although Mark Thompson hinted that a similar post-launch DLC will be possible for "Far Cry 4," the expansion won't be a sequel to "Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon." He explained that the development teams do not want to take the easy route, adding that they would rather build new contents rather than re-use the same ideas. As a result, it appears that the post-launch DLC will only be similar in concept.
The narrative director also stated that some fans wanted Vaas to return as the main antagonist in the fourth main game. The character ended being quiet popular even though his appearance in the last game was shorter than what many were expecting. However, Mark Thompson and his colleagues wanted to make the sequel completely different when compared to "Far Cry 3" with a different story and world. The main antagonist for the upcoming title is Pagan Min, who has already caused some controversies due to his perceived race and sexuality.
The "Far Cry 4" release date is set for later this year on Nov. 18 in North America. Based on the sales from the previous game, the sequel should be one of the best-selling games of the holiday season when it launches for the PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One platforms. An image of the aforementioned Pagan Min can be seen near the top of this article (courtesy of the "Far Cry" Facebook site).

DOR BioPharma's patent related to its ricin toxin vaccine was approved. This patent includes methods of use and composition claims for RiVax™, its lead biodefense product. "We continue to be excited about developing a ricin vaccine to protect against the potential use of ricin toxin as a biological weapon," says Christopher J. Schaber, president and CEO.
With 49 claims, the allowed patent covers the technology that describes the derivation of the ricin A chain antigen, which constitutes the immunogenic component of RiVax. It is a vaccine that contains a recombinant subunit of the A chain of ricin toxin, which induces ricin neutralizing antibodies in humans and animals.
DOR exclusively licensed worldwide rights to the patent from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas (UTSW) for the production, sales, and marketing of RiVax. Schaber points out that the technology developed at UTSW for RiVax is considered the strongest in this area.
U.S. Patent Application #09/698,551 was titled "Ricin A chain mutants lacking enzymatic activity as vaccines to protect against aerosolized ricin." The allowed claims in the patent application include the combination of specific mutations in the enzymatically active site of ricin A chain with specific mutations in the site that induces vascular leak syndrome (VLS). The combination of mutations in each of the key sites for ricin toxicity ensures that the recombinant subunit is inherently safe, explains DOR. Studies conducted by Ellen Vitetta, Ph.D., director of the cancer immunobiology center at UTSW and her colleagues have indicated that the specific mutations introduced into the ricin A chain eliminate the toxic activity of the molecule but do not alter the structure, permitting a highly immunogenic and safe vaccine.
RiVax was shown to be safely tolerated in humans in a Phase I dose-escalating trial conducted last year and did not result in any side effects. Even without an adjuvant, RiVax induced antibodies in all five of the individuals who received the highest dose, four out of five who received the intermediate dose, and one out of five who received the lowest dose levels, DOR reports.
"We expect that the introduction of a safe and effective ricin vaccine will be a step forward in the national effort to develop effective countermeasures and therapies for significant biothreats and emerging pathogens," remarks Schaber.

Jamaica's Ashley lines up for world title shot
Female boxer looking to use New York main bout as stepping stone to global crown
Leroy Brown, Gleaner Writer
The name Alicia Ashley does not mean anything to most boxing fans in Jamaica.
However, this well kept boxing secret had a successful amateur career in New York and has been plying her trade as a professional boxer since January 29, 1999.
Tomorrow, she will meet Chrystal Hoy from Las Vegas in the main bout of a fight card in Brooklyn, New York.
Ashley is thrilled that she will be in a New York main bout and sees this as quite an achievement. What is important to her about this fight is that it is the prelude to another title fight for the vacant World Boxing Council (WBC) super bantamweight crown later this year.
Though overjoyed to be in line for another title fight, Ashley is sorry that her opponent is not going to be Marcela Acuna, the former champion, who she says was recently stripped of the title for refusing to give her a return fight.
Return fight
"I beat her three times but only got the decisions twice," said Ashley.
"The third time was the most important because it was for the WBC title and I was robbed. Two of the judges voted for her and the other had the fight as a draw, but I know that I won and most people felt the same way," she added.
Ashley, who has a 15-9-1 record, first clashed with Acuna in 2002 for the vacant Women's International Boxing Federation super bantamweight title in Cordoba, Argentina, and came away with a majority decision.
Because of the close decision, there was a return fight in 2003 in Bolivar, Buenos Aires and this time Ashley earned a unanimous decision. She did not hold the title for long, however, losing it five months later to Esther Schouten by way of another controversial majority decision in Vienna, Austria.
Getting fights is not easy, she says, as there are lots of stumbling blocks and many of the boxers in her weight class avoid her as much as possible. Regardless, Ashley keeps training and fights whenever she can as she pursues her goal of winning the prestigious WBC title.
Other titles
During her career she has won two other titles, the interim women's International Boxing Federation bantamweight title in 2005 and the North American Boxing Federation female super bantamweight title in 2008.
Ashley, who was born on August 23, 1967 in Kingston, went to Seaward Elementary school and says she was accepted to go to Wolmer's Girls at age 11, but never got there as her parents, Frank Ashley and Thelma Cormack, migrated to the United States.
She first lived in Brownsville, Brooklyn and now lives in, Kensington, in the same borough.
A lot has happened to her since she left Jamaica.
"My life has been exciting," said Ashley, who admits that she wanted to be a professional dancer - like her father - and received scholarships to the Alvin Ailey and Martha Graham schools.
However, a knee injury put an end to her dancing career and inspired by her elder brother, Devon, who was a karate instructor, she moved to that sport and then to kick-boxing.
She eventually decided to switch sports and graduated to boxing because as she surmised, there are less 'weapons' to deal with.
"There are no feet to contend with in boxing and my skills and movement are assets," she said. "My nickname 'Slick' tells part of the story."
In-between boxing she studied and has a degree in computer science, but because of her boxing career, her other job now is that of a trainer at the famous Gleason's Gym in Brooklyn, where she is in turn trained by her brother and Luigi Olcese.
Although she is busy with boxing, Ashley confessed to being able to find time for "a lot of other things such as acting".
When I asked her if she ever found time to get married, she replied with a laugh: "I just got married on December 22. He is a Frenchman who is also a trainer at Gleason's."
His name?
"Matthew, Matthew Ashley," she replied. "He liked my name and decided to take it. It was his choice and he is very comfortable with it. He is a great guy."
In the meantime, Ashley is getting ready for her fight tomorrow and says she is aiming for a good victory to set the stage for another title fight later this year.
"I want to win this one for Jamaica," she ended.

Why is is that everyone you run into when PG throws in the token "You look great!"
"Really? Because I actually just rolled out of bed, threw on sweats and ran to the grocery store with a rats nest in my hair and yesterdays mascara streaked across my cheeks. . I would actually prefer you ask how the baby is, or how I've been feeling or if the nursery is done."
"You look great? Spare me....I've gained 30 pounds, and BTW....I don't give a rats ass how you think I look. I care that I am finally PG and that all is going well"
Does this drive anyone else crazy?????

iriver's WAVE Wi-Fi phone now official
South Korean consumer electronics product maker iriver has just officialized its long-awaited Wi-Fi enabled touchscreen WAVE phone, announcing it alongside a new PMP and MID.
The iriver WAVE Wi-Fi phone's official specs look to be just the same as what we had earlier learned, as a 3″ LCD touch screen display is present, along with Wi-Fi connectivity, VoIP capabilities, text messaging, and music from Bugs Music "at a higher quality than in the PC environment."
A call forwarding service is also available for the iriver WAVE phone, so it can be used where no wireless networks are available. Apart from that and what's mentioned above, the iriver WAVE phone also does video, has a photo viewer, E-Dictionary, flash games, and an FM Radio. There's also a built-in mom speaker, SRS WOW HD, 7 Preset EQ settings, 4GB Nand Flash, USB 2.0, and Flash Lite 2.0.2.
According to iriver, here's what will be included in the box: a set of earphones, a USB cable, a stylus pen, a battery holder, an adapter, a quick start guide, the warranty card, and the installation CD.
Unfortunately, no info about pricing or availability has been revealed yet, so we'll just have to tell you that in a future update.

A heritage railway is to join the rock concert circuit with a three-day festival along the scenic five-mile line.
It will involve transforming its engine shed in Oxenhope into a 500 capacity venue where festival-goers will share the space with seven steam engines.
Keighley station, at the other end of the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway, will stage concerts while a Pullman carriage will become a venue for acoustic bands as it travels along the line through Bronte country over the weekend of Friday, June 10, to Sunday, June 12.
The task of setting up the stage in the engine shed has been given to Bradford-based Universal Live event solutions company.
Also involved is Keighley music agent Mickey Thompson, who last year organised the Leeds Festival Fringe where 123 bands performed at eight venues over seven days.
He wants to hear from Yorkshire bands, musicians, schools, dance academies and drama schools who are interested in performing on the station stages.
He said: "We want the best unsigned acts from Yorkshire to apply. We want applicants to send links and information about why they should be chosen."
People interested in performing should e-mail rockandrail@kwvr. co.uk or go to rockandrail.co.uk to buy tickets.
