Author to meet with local veterans
Published: Friday, April 5, 2013 at 10:28 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, April 5, 2013 at 10:28 p.m.
The Terrebonne Parish Library System has made an addition to the Jambalaya Writers' Conference schedule, done specially for local veterans.
Tim O'Brien, author and keynote speaker for the conference, will dedicate a special session to meeting only with them. O'Brien is the author of the critically acclaimed book, "The Things They Carried," a story about the Vietnam War. The new session is reserved for the men and women of the bayou region who fought for the U.S.
They will have the chance to ask questions and tell stories among others who understand their experiences.
"He has agreed to set aside this time just for our local veterans, which is really cool. They'll get to discuss all the things they've experienced," said Rachel LeCompte, public relations coordinator for the library. "Though O'Brien's book is a work of fiction, it was inspired by his experience in the Vietnam War, and they'll all come together at the conference to talk about it."
O'Brien is slated to speak to conference attendees at noon April 13. The private session will run from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. Veterans interested in attending can call the Houma Regional Military Museum at 873-8200.
"It seems to me like the subject itself ought to be of interest to all veterans, but especially to Vietnam veterans," said C.J. Christ, a local veteran and the moving force behind the military museum. "So we want to invite as many veterans as we can get to come. It should be quite interesting."
Information is also available at the museum, 1154 Barrow St. in Houma.

Gerard Depardieu was charged with DUI after falling off his scooter Thursday in Paris.
I would totally pay for a plane ticket to Paris right now if someone could guarantee I'd see Gerard Depardieu drunkenly fall off a scooter. They should make that some sort of tourist attraction. They'd make millions.
Anyway, according to TMZ, when DePardieu -- who starred in "Green Card" back in the '90s -- fell off his scooter, he caught the attention of police, who took the 63-year-old into custody.
Depardieu was reportedly held for questioning, and later escorted home. He'll eventually have to appear in court.
Thursday's incident was one of several encounters with the law for Depardieu. He was booted from a Paris-to-Dublin flight last year when he urinated in the aisle before takeoff. In 1998, he crashed his motorcycle when his blood-alcohol limit was five times over the legal level, escaping with leg and face injuries.

As a soup fanatic, a soup connoisseur and a soup savant, I am exceedingly well versed in the controversy around the definition of soup. Whether it is chowder or bisque, stew or chili, goulash or gumbo, if it is liquid in a bowl, then I am going to suggest that it is celebrated as soup! So, the culinary delight that is chili is regarded as such, in my eyes. However, another point of debate that reigns for this typically southwestern dish is "to bean or not to bean?" Does a true, unaltered "chili con carne" include frijoles? Historically, soaking, then boiling dry beans for several hours made beans a difficult addition to a dish for a cattle drive. Moreover, we can also argue about the popular vegetarian chili, which would dispute the "con carne" reference to meat. Therefore, I am apt to negate the chili elitists and propose that the egalitarian world of chili makers unite — make what satisfies and create what tastes scrumptious. And, that is exactly what occurred at the Eagle Vail Community Garden Chili Cook Off on Sunday.
At the Eagle-Vail Pavilion, I sampled nearly 15 unique chili recipes, each with their own spin on sorted ingredients. The red chili that Charles Hayes made offered unexpected accompaniments — New York strip steak pieces, sliced green onions, a clam juice cracker, a drizzle of Italian olive oil and the creamiest, most decadent goat cheese. It was such a surprisingly delicious bite of chili!
Shawn Smith served a 12-hour applewood-smoked, pulled pork green chili topped with cilantro and crema, where the sweetness of the applewood was very apparent. But, the most celebrated taste of this chili was created while enjoying his panko-breaded Oaxaca cheese garnish, which I savored like an upscale, Southwestern cheese curd. He precisely paired his chili concoction with homemade white sangria that he crafted with his father-in-law's wine. All of which afforded him the winning trophy!
"Bobby's Red Chili," by Rob Page, portrayed sweetness from freshly pureed and strained red chili peppers; he dressed his chili with a cumin crema. His daughter and biggest cheerleader, Davis, said that "he doesn't make (the chili) very often, but when he does, it is so good." I concur!
And, although the firefighters were called away during the event, they were well represented with the "Red Hot Firefighter's Chili" that had an unanticipated undertone of cinnamon and spice.
Finally, this third annual Chili Cook Off would not be the same without the reigning champion's new entry. Dave Courtney's "Chili Pot Pie" was served with fresh cilantro and tomato relish, a cornbread pancake and chipotle creme fraiche. As in years past, the level of sophistication and competition (and, heat index) was increased for this 2013 chili cook off.
Chili yesteryears
The labors of these chili makers reminds me of my father, who is always tinkering with a chili recipe of sorts. Never working from a recipe card, I doubt he has made the same chili twice. For me, a simmering, stewing pot of chili makes me nostalgic of cold days past. Not unlike my trip to Aspen a couple weeks ago, I enjoyed a steaming bowl of chili at Little Annie's Eating House, where the staff agreed that all dishes are made with love. Little Annie's will be closing its doors at the end of the month, so this culinary journey was like paying homage to this 40-year-plus Aspen staple. To Little Annie's Eating House, I say that it was a delight and honor to enjoy your chili one last time. I salute you and sing your praises between reflective bites of the chili of yesteryears.
Much like Little Annie's, Woody and Jodi Johnson, the owners of The Back Bowl Soup Company in Winter Park, create labors of love in fluid form for friends to enjoy. So, if you aim to reflect on a memorable bite of chili, then there is no better place to appreciate a steaming bowl of liquid comfort than at Back Bowl. The amount of heat in the red chili recipe can be suited to an individual taste by choosing hot or mild with many of the ingredients: chorizo, whole dried chilis, green chilis, chili powder, etc.
Fresh off a hiking trail a couple weeks ago, I had the utmost chili craving — mild or spicy, either would suffice. I would have especially relished the Beaver Creek Chophouse chili, which is featured in the "Ski Town Soups" cookbook. But, specifically, I wanted to consume a robust and hearty bowl with accompaniments and garnishes of sharp cheddar cheese, sour cream and diced red onions. Dressing-up an already decadent serving of chili is my favorite way to consume. This is exactly how Larkspur suggests one devours their tried-and-true chili. The Larkspur recipe will feed a swarm of starving skiers! As many of the ski country natives know, we entertain guests and friends — seemingly coming out of the woodwork — during ski season. Happily, you have a cozy, warm, inviting meal in a bowl to serve this drove! So, I suggest you get out your soup crocks and stew pots in preparation for the winter wonderland of eating and entertaining.

After undergoing double knee replacement surgery at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, Michael Blood, 66, of White River Junction had rehabilitation with physical therapist Amy Chiriatti at Advance Physical Therapy in Wilder. Amy provided the "exceptional" care to not just Michael's knees but to him as a whole person.

FAIRHAVEN — The Conservation Commission has rescheduled an onsite at the Bella Vista island property owned by Anwar Faisal to Sunday, Feb. 10, at 10 a.m. The onsite was previously scheduled for Jan. 25.
In a Jan. 10 letter to Prime Engineering, which represents the property owners, the commission asked for a full and completely detailed status update on the work being performed at 1 Bella Vista Island and at the town's compost recycling center on Arsene Street. Bella Vista's owners have agreed to perform work at the DPW site in compensation for violations at Bella Vista.
Prime Engineering sent a response on Jan. 18 outlining work completed at both sites. It said it had provided documents on site work at the DPW in November and that another update wasn't due until October 2013.
It said it has removed phragmites at Bella Vista Island and backfilled excavated land with organic topsoil. "At that point,the growing season ended so the proposed plantings have not been installed," the engineering firm said.
The firm said it constructed a temporary gravel road at the northern coastal bank to allow access by trucks and equipment. It said a staging area has been established to stockpile armor stones for the northern coastal bank.
Responding to other issues, Prime Engineering said it has removed other invasive plants and will replace them with noninvasive plants at the start of the 2013 growing season. It said a disturbed dune has been replaced and that dune grass will be planted in March.
"In the interim, the dune erosion will be protected from erosive forces by the use of snow fencing," the engineers said.

Give Up Hope
I don't like being upside down and backwards. This makes Handstand a challenge for me. I don't trust that my fellow students can hold me steady while I substitute my hands for feet. It's a reflection of my own limited thinking, not an accurate assessment of their competence.
Still, I try. I go to class and work gradually. First, I achieved Headstand, which I couldn't do a year ago. It's a stepping-stone to the loftier goal of Handstand.
Yoga is always putting new challenges in our paths. Just when we think we have achieved a difficult asana, we discover that it was the modified version. It taught me to give up hope.

The University provides employees who are parents of a newborn child, a newly adopted child or the sponsor of a new foster/guardian care placement with paid leave to allow for a period of bonding with the child. This policy includes parents in same-sex relationships.
Administrators and Professionals and Professional Research Staff who have completed two (2) years of full-time service (excluding any leaves) prior to birth, adoption or placement of foster care children.
Effective date of policy
This policy applies to all Administrators and Professionals and Professional Research Staff who give birth, adopt, or take into foster care a child on or after December 1, 2004.
When the employee is the PRIMARY caregiver, he/she is eligible for six (6) weeks of bonding leave at full pay immediately following the birth, adoption or placement of a foster child or immediately following post-birth disability.
A parent who is NOT the primary caregiver is eligible for one week of bonding leave at full pay following the birth, adoption or placement of a foster child.
Where both parents are NYU employees eligible under this policy, only one parent may be designated as the primary caregiver at a given time. The maximum bonding leave benefit for both parents is six (6) weeks combined including primary and non-primary leave.
The period of bonding leave must immediately follow either the birth and disability period or the adoption/foster care placement date.
An employee is entitled to a maximum of one (1) bonding leave in a twelve month period.
"Parent" includes: (1) the biological parent; (2) adoptive parent; (3) foster care parent; (4) any employee who is legally responsible for a minor child as defined in this policy.
University Leave and FMLA
The University provides medical leave and family care leave to eligible employees in accordance with the federal Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 ("FMLA"). If an employee is eligible for FMLA leave, that leave runs concurrently with the periods of University sick and disability leave and paid bonding leave. In no event will an employee's entitlement to leave be less than what employees are eligible for under FMLA. Read about your rights under the Family and Medical Leave Act. An employee wishing to apply for paid bonding leave must complete a Bonding Leave Application for the leave and follow the process for requesting FMLA.

But the reaction among his peers wasn't what it used to be. "So old, so old," a friend jabbed lightheartedly.
At a nearby café, a Chinese-Cambodian businesswoman said she was saving money to get cosmetic surgery in Gangnam, the glamorous Beverly Hills of Seoul that Psy raps about in his global hit.
But the lure of plastic surgery in Korea - a trendy item for Asian women who want the pointy nose and larger eyes they consider beautiful - is apparently wearing off too.
"I should be careful. I don't want to look like those K-pop girls. Too fake," she said. "And those K-drama men, ugh, they look girly. Too much make-up."
Last summer, the release of "Gangnam Style" raised the global profile of the "Korean Wave," or hallyu, a pop culture fad that has enchanted youth throughout Asia since the late 1990s. Today, teenagers in Cambodia and elsewhere continue to ape South Korean films, television dramas and pop bands.
But some here say the craze is getting a bit much, even for the Psy loyalists residing in Phnom Penh. So what happened?
Youngsters are pushing back against the Korean pop culture with torpor and, at times, national pride. One Chinese student even sighed with relief that Psy's New Year's resolution was to retire "Gangnam Style.
"I really want to see more coverage and attention to Khmer [Cambodian] pop," said Huy Solida, the founder of KhPop.com, a website that covers Cambodian celebrity gossip. She added, though, that many Cambodians are still crazy for Psy, and that they respect South Korean cultural exports because they can learn from a "modern" country.
In China and Japan, two of the Korean Wave's biggest markets, pride in homegrown pop culture has been gaining intensity since the mid-2000s.
Last year, a Taiwanese communications regulator requested that stations play fewer Korean shows and music. In 2006, Chinese authorities capped the number of South Korean television shows that can be aired. Both countries were trying to prop up the entertainment industry at home.
Such a reaction is partly due to the growing perception that South Korean pop culture is shallow, a view perpetuated by the relentless sponsoring of K-pop by the South Korean government, often at the expense of its traditional culture.
Each year, the government has increased spending on K-pop by 12 percent, but has stepped up spending on traditional culture by only 2 percent, according to Daniel Tudor, author of Korea: The Impossible Country.
Opposition to Korean Wave usually rides on other frictions, and doesn't always come down to acceptance or rejection of Korean pop culture itself. "As political issues rise and fall, culture can get sucked in. But so do cars, appliances, and whatever else," said Mark Russell, author of Pop Goes Korea: Behind the Revolution in Movies, Music and Internet Culture.
Case in point: in February 2012, actress Kim Tae-hee cancelled a promotional visit to Japan thanks to anti-Korean Wave sentiment. Right-wing Japanese groups had expressed displeasure over her support for Korean sovereignty over the Dokdo islands, the epicenter of a decades-old dispute between the two countries.
Japan is home to other paroxysms that flare up and down against the Korean Wave. In July 2011, 6,000 protesters picketed outside a television station after the Japanese actor Sousuke Takaoka tweeted that he's tired of the stations airing a welter of Korean television dramas.
"Chase the cockroaches out of Japan!" the demonstrators reportedly chanted.
Russell said it's easy to confuse nationalism with protectionism. He doesn't agree K-pop is faltering, despite the efforts underway in other countries.
"Girls Generation's 'Gee' has 95 million YouTube hits," Russell said. "Frank Ocean doesn't have more than 12 million for a song."
It's a picture he calls "muddy." Or, for those Cambodian teenagers, apathy.

Acrobatics is powered up not holding an item and the gem is disposed of before the move is used, so it is really powerful. commented Apr 7, 2013 by Extremespeed It's still really powerful without it...and Sceptile will die sooner. commented Apr 7, 2013 by [MEGA]StellarLucario Sceptile can learn outrage.. :D give it outrage commented Jul 5, 2013 by EpicPokemonChamp' Special Sceptile with HP Rock is better Focus Sash Timid Nature HP Rock Energy Ball Detect Grass Knot commented Aug 19, 2014 by TheAngryAmbipom Please log in or register to add a comment. Please log in or register to answer this question. 35 Answers 9 votes OK here's a few tips. Firstly, stick to moves of one category - either 'physical' or 'special'. In Sceptile's case his SpAtk is higher than Attack, but you can always EV train to get his attack higher. It's pointless having two attacking moves of the same type (ie leaf blade and energy ball). Just stick with the most powerful one (depends on if your special attack is higher or not). Dig is a bad move because of the two turns. If you dig underground on the first turn I can switch to a flying pokemon and the move won't have any effect. If you want a ground move, go with Earthquake. If you're going with Physical moves, X-Scissor is great, as is Leaf Blade. I would always keep one spot for a status move - something that puts the opponent to sleep or confuses them for example. answered May 15, 2010 by Pokemaster i thought that haveing both leaf blade and energy ball would be good becuase one is physical and one is special commented May 17, 2010 by Speed freak Sometimes that does help if you battle a pokemon with a high defense or sp. defense, you can use the other move. But it's best to train in either attack or special attack to overcome that problem. commented Jul 13, 2010 by Pokemaster Having a physical and special move might be good... but then you'd have to train him a bit in both stats... :( commented Jul 15, 2012 by Giga sceptile cant learn earthquake mine has: leaf blade dig drain punch rock slide dont tell me a mistake because its very annoying typing on my 3ds commented Aug 9, 2012 by gengarchomp Actually, it learns Earthquake by TM. commented Aug 9, 2012 by 5th of November oh i was looking at grovyle but its still annoying i have to type on my 3ds :/ commented Aug 14, 2012 by gengarchomp Highly disagreeing about sticking to either Physical or Special Attack. Mixed set is the only one worth considering on Sceptile Because he's attack is not good enough without sweeping to compete with most of the OU or Ubers, and Sceptile isn't exactly good at sweeping as he takes one hit and dies. Mixed set gives him a nice coverage. commented Apr 23, 2014 by bnb1990 Please log in or register to add a comment. 5 votes Ok here is the set I now use Hp(Rock) Focus blast(Coverage) Energy ball(STAB) Dragon pulse(Coverage) For physical users E-quake(Coverage) Leaf blade(STAB) Rock slide(Coverage) Swords dance(Mandatory for increasing Attack) answered Feb 15, 2011 by Speed freak I would trade anything for the special set you have there! commented Aug 13, 2014 by Jonathan03 Please log in or register to add a comment. 5 votes ![][1] Sceptile @ Life Orb Trait: Overgrow EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature (+Spe, -SpA) Hone Claws Leaf Blade DynamicPunch Rock Slide/Earthquake I tried making something original. Hone Claws boosts accuracy and Attack, just find a good situation to set it up. Leaf Blade is good STAB with a better crit chance, if something is setting up Def you can spam dat mofo for a potential crit. DynamicPunch has good power, and it's honestly the main reason Hone Claws is here. It also has a excellent secondary effect (confuses opponent). Rock Slide patches up the coverage hitting Bug- and Flying-types, while Earthquake takes care of Poison-types.

Leaf Storm-STAB, pretty powerful move. Hidden power [fire]-deals with genesect, ferrothorn, scizor, or foretress. It serves to deal with bugs that have the advantage over him, or Steel types that try to shut him out. Rock slide-Covers 4 weaknesses in one move. Dragon Claw-Deals with Kingdra, a pretty common check to sceptile. For generation V, you can also use the move Acrobatics combined with a flight gem. Since the gem goes away before the game checks for items, the damage will be tripled, which, combined with Sceptile's new unburden ability, is pretty devastating. answered May 26, 2011 by DarkTyphlosion Rock HP works well on pesky bug types as well commented Dec 19, 2011 by excadrill444 not just bugs,but also flying,ice, and fire :) commented Jan 16, 2012 by ~Rex Please log in or register to add a comment. 1 vote Sceptile (F) @ Flying Gem Trait: Unburden EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) Leaf Blade Drain Punch Swords Dance Acrobatics answered Jun 25, 2012 by Mewderator I've used that set! :D commented Jan 4, 2014 by QuestioningSweeper Please log in or register to add a comment. 1 vote *OU Lizard (Sceptile) @Flying Gem Ability: Unburden Nature: Jolly (+Spd. -Sp.

Swords Dance will double your Attack power, while a either status infliction kicks in the lum berry or a hard hit will attempt to knock out the frail lizard, allowing unburden to double your speed. Acrobatics will be at 110 power, Leaf Blade would be at 135 power, and the last move would be for coverage. X scissor and Crunch at 80 power and Earthquake at 100 is good. Drain Punch heals you after the focus sash which is cool. Quick attack is to outspeed those who try to finish you off. answered Apr 11, 2014 by Ki2436Chen Please log in or register to add a comment. 0 votes Mixed Sceptile Nature: Naive/Hasty Held item: Liechi Berry/Petaya Berry Ability: Unburden EVs: 252 Sp Atk, 210 Speed, 48 Atk Moves: Giga Drain/Leaf Storm X-Scissor Earthquake Hidden power (fire)/Acrobatics/Rock Slide Berries are situational there is no better choice here as it all depends on the situation. Giga Drain provides some healing if you won't get OH-KOed you can Drain some of the enemy's HP back, Leaf Storm is a pure power, guaranteeing to kill anything that is weak to grass moves, Earthquake is here mostly to kill Heatran and it serves it's purpose well, X-scissor is here mostly for Celebi and Alakazam but it can still 2Hit a lot of Grass and Psychic types, the last choice is depending on your team coverage: HP Fire kills Forretress and Scizor and Ferrothorn (if it's sun), Acrobatics works well with the boost from Liechi Berry while rock slide kills Charizard, Talonflame (*if you don't get hit by Gale Wings Brave Bird) and gives a chance to flinch, though I'd rather recommend that for doubles. answered Apr 23, 2014 by bnb1990 Please log in or register to add a comment.

Gifford and the White River Valley Chamber of Commerce community concert series ends Aug. 26 with a special performance from Jeanne & The Hi-Tops and a special barbecue from the Randolph Center Fire Department.
Firefighters from the volunteer department will be grilling up and selling hamburgers and hotdogs while Jeanne & The Hi-Tops perform old time rock and roll. Both events start at 6 p.m.
Jeanne & The Hi-Tops is a six-member band from central Vermont that first came together in the early 1990s. Their musical journey has led them down many alleys of inspiration, including New Orleans funk, Memphis soul, Kansas City swing, Chicago blues, Tex-Mex, reggae and the swamp-pop/zydeco sounds of the Louisiana bayou. Today, the group describes its style as driving rhythms and good-natured grooves.
The band includes lead vocalist Jeanne McCullough, guitarists Cannon Labrie and Terry Cantlin, horn player and MC Jack Kruse, David Indenbaum on bass and Michael Bradshaw on drums.
While the band gets its groove on, the fire department will also have its new rescue tanker on hand for children and people of all ages to see and sit in. The department took delivery of the 2013 International on May 1. It holds 1,800 gallons of water plus rescue tools, such as the jaws of life. The tools are pre-connected and stored in the front bumper for quick access and quick help in an emergency.
The firefighters noted they will also have gear on hand for spectators to see.
Money raised at the barbecue will go to the department's fireman's fund, said Chief Ken Preston.
"Benefits from these sales will go toward purchasing equipment that we couldn't otherwise afford," Preston said.
The community concert series in the park at Gifford is sponsored by Gillespie Fuels and Propane, the Frankenburg Agency, and the Gifford Medical Center Auxiliary.
The concerts typically go until 7:30 p.m. and also feature a farmers market. Spectators are encouraged to bring a lawn chair or picnic table, an appetite, and family and friends. Learn more online at www.giffordmed.org or call (802) 728-2339.

LIVERMORE -- The Archbishop Mitty-San Jose softball team won the Livermore Stampede championship game Saturday, but it wasn't easy.
Host Livermore loaded the bases twice and scored two runs in the fifth inning, but Mitty took an early lead and prevailed 4-2 at Robertson Park.
Mitty (16-0) was clicking on all cylinders early. Kiersten Nordin, the second batter of the game, lined a home run over the left field fence. Later in the first inning, Madeleine Kim hit an RBI single into left for a 2-0 Mitty advantage.
"All weekend long it seemed the team had a different hero every game. We stayed consistent," said Mitty coach Brian Yocke, whose team is ranked sixth in the state by Cal-Hi Sports.
The Monarchs added a single run in the third inning on a sacrifice fly by Kim, but Livermore (8-4) loaded the bases in the bottom of the fourth inning on a double by Hannah Bennett, a single by Samantha Whalen and pitch hitter Audrey Vaughn's hit by pitch.
But Mitty pitcher Desiree Severance induced Morgan Meyer, who had a single in her previous at-bat, into a groundout.
Mitty took a 4-0 lead in the top of the fifth inning on an RBI double by Ashley Chestnut. But in the bottom of the inning, Livermore cut Mitty's lead in half with an RBI single by Kristin Paulazzo and a run-scoring ground-rule double by Bennett.
Bennett's double put runners on second and third with one out. Severance induced a grounder to herself, looked back the runner at third and threw out the runner at first. Pinch hitter Leah Taulton then walked to load the bases again for Livermore, but Rachael Laront's flyout to right field ended the inning.
Livermore had hits in each of the final two innings, but could not get another runner home. "When I have runners on, it can be really stressful, but I know the defense behind me will back me up," said Severance, who was named the MVP of the tournament.
Jazmyn Jackson had three hits for Mitty. Bennett was 2 for 3 for Livermore, which advanced to the championship game with a 3-0 semifinal win over Monte Vista on Saturday. Mitty beat Whitney 6-2 in the other semifinal.
"I couldn't be more proud of these girls. They've got the biggest heart," Livermore coach Larry Bird said. "We had our opportunities to score. We didn't get the clutch hit. ... It wasn't a blowout. We deserved to be there."
Boys volleyball
The Mission San Jose program has come a long way in the last five years, becoming a fixture in the postseason and making the finals of the North Coast Section Division I playoffs for the first two times in school history.
The Warriors, though, had never won a tournament title.
That changed Saturday as Mission San Jose beat Drake-San Anselmo 25-19, 25-22 in the finals of the Foothill Tournament in Pleasanton. Since a 2-3 start, the Warriors have won six of seven matches.
"It's a great accomplishment," Mission San Jose coach Alvin Nguyen said. "We are starting to reach our potential, but I feel like we could potentially be even better."
Mission San Jose (8-4) overcame an 11-4 deficit in the first game, and then pulled away in the second when it was tied 20-20. Middle hitter Brennon Ng had 13 kills in the match, including eight in the second game.
In the semifinals, the Warriors defeated host Foothill in three games, and the Pirates (14-4) topped Washington in three games.

Gwyneth Paltrow named World's Most Beautiful Woman
MOST BEAUTIFUL–This April 24 photo shows actress Gwyneth Paltrow wearing a sheer dress at the world premiere of "Iron Man 3" held at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles. Paltrow says she's thrilled to be picked by People magazine as "World's Most Beautiful Woman" for 2013 but it's "obviously not true." The 40-year-old actress stars as Pepper Potts, Tony Stark's love interest and assistant-turned-business partner in the "Iron Man" trilogy. (Photo by Eric Carbonneau/Invision/AP) (CNN) — Gwyneth Paltrow and Beyonce can now claim to be the most beautiful BFFs in the world. On Wednesday, People magazine named Paltrow the World's Most Beautiful Woman for 2013, a year after Paltrow's pal Beyonce held the title.

lebron is better in stats cause he averages only three less points than mj but get 4 more rebounds and four more assist and has better fg % andlebron won his first championship before micheal jordan did at his age and people say lebron cant win alone but mcheal jordan couldnt win a champinship until scottie pippen was drafed and they say he has no clutch so what if he messed up that one time against the mavericks all the other times hes had a way better clutch performance than jordan
ya i think lebron is gonna be better
I agree but i gave wrong stats lebron gave 1 more assist more and almost two more rebounds than mj. lebron had 27.1 ppg 6.2apg and 8 rpg mj had 30.1 ppg 5.3 apg and6.2 rpg. and plus lebron is way to big for mj and hes still more athletic
No one will ever match Jordan. Jordan transended the game more the Lebron has. Jordan was a better defender and scorer than Lebron. MJ couldve gotten MVP every damn year go look at his stats at the times that he played.... He wouldve won it every year in the 2000's had he played in the last decade or so. No one is putting up steals or scoring numbers like he did.
MJ, for sure not choke gene. except agianst the great reggie miller
why do people act like nobody will ever be greater than jordan. ok just becuase he played over the flu and he won 6 championships doesnt mean anything what so ever, first of all bill russel won 11 straight championships and most people dont even put him in the top 3. and dirk had a fever and he still won a championship and micheal jordan would rather get50 points and lebron probally would get a triple double its reallly hard to decide and i understand if u think mj is better he might be but dont act like nobody could end up being better than mj becuase it could happen and theres a chance lebron might end up being better
You Cant Compare Lebron To MJ im a Heat Fan But Lebron Has His Own Style And MJ had His Own Style. MJ played Through A Flu LBJ Shot A 3 While Having A cramp. Jordan Has 6 rings And Lebron Just started His Lebron Got His first Ring A year Before Jordan Got His First. THere Will Never Be No One Like MJ and No one Like Lebron No one Like Kobe Bird Magic Or KD Each Has There Own Finest Swagger And Style To the Game
youve got a point but u can still compare by overall attributes
Times were different, MJ had to play in a much more competitive NBA and not the one with only a few teams that can win like we are seeing today. So, i respect LBJ but i gotta go with Michael on this one
Hard work beats talent whem talent doesn´t work hard.- Kevin Durant
Like what ?????DaReaLK said, judging Lebron by MJ is like judging a flower before it has bloomed. Yeah Lebron is good, better than 96% of players that are active today, however Lebron still has more years infront of him. What if you judged MJ in his first years before he won a championship, and before he met scottie pippen. Scottie pippen helped MJ the same way d wayne helped lebron. Until Lebron's career is over, then we can decided wether his resume is equivelent to MJ.
Michael Jordan. Lebron is great but he still has a lot to prove. He must surpass Jordan's championship titles plus individual achievents.
MJ will always be the best. In my opinion, LeBron will be the best SF of all time.
P.S. LeBron was younger than MJ when he got his first ring, but it took him more SEASONS to get his first ring.
MJ will always be better except if lebron gets atleast 6 rings and two more mvp s
Great players are great leaders.Miamiheatboy
There will be someone greater than Jordan, but it's not Lebron. Lebron is not good at driving to the basket, he's just big. He proved it in the playoffs when he couldn't score against people bigger than him, most of his points were on people smaller than him Parker, Hill, Stevenson and George. Jordan being 6-6 scored on Ewing, Kemp and Malone. Lebron can't perform well when the other team is being too physical on him, he proved that against Chicago he had no 30 point games and no triple doubles. While Jordan played during the handcheck era and when faceguarding was allowed. Kid how old r u for u too say that the 90's were garbage proves your ignorance

The second night of their monthly 2-night bookings at Nectar's, Phish opened with Taj Mahal's She Caught the Katy, a song that was one of two Taj Mahal covers the band played in the 80's (Corinna). A very standard Alumni and Golgi follow (the latter being "Duke Ellington's favorite song"). Swing Low, in the prime of its day, is next, but this version lacks the gusto compared to when it closes a show (3/23/87, 8/21/87). Fire returns energy to the set. The second Mike-sung cover of the set, Skin it Back, follows and moves into a very lilting jam that ends up very nicely into Cities. Perhaps the most solid version of Lushington closes the set.
Dog log opens this very short second set (only 45 mins). Melt the Guns is maybe the highlight of the show, as it turns into a driving jam that never returns to the chorus and instead moves to DEG, similarly to 2/13/87. Oddly, this is the last Melt the Guns the band ever played despite it serving as a nice jam vehicle for the band's early days. To celebrate "the Duke-ster's birthday", Jeff Friedberg joins the band for 'A-train'. Next, "Duke Ellington's favorite song by Nancy", Halley's Comet, is played with Trey singing falsetto to make up for the absence of Richard Wright. Halley's cleanly segues into Quinn, which also cleanly moves into AC/DC Bag.
"Don't forget to tip your waitresses and waiters and bartender," reminds Trey at the start of the 3rd set. These words are ingrained in my memory, as my college roomate had his alarm set to this show, and it woke me up countless times early in the morning. A very clean Peaches and Fluffhead are followed by a Trey-shred GTBT. The ultra-rare Anarchy makes an appearance here, which is worth a (short) listen. A slow Makisupa also cleanly transitions into a 9-minute Antelope, which is nicely played. The first Timber ever (with several additional lyrics) follows a standard Boogie On.
While Slave is pretty standard, the band absolutely tears through Sparks. One of the last 'chanting' versions of McGrupp contains a Lushington-like jam. Curtis Loew, which an audience member had been shouting for several times, is pretty good for a debut. The band rips through Come On, the second Hendrix cover of the night; the whole band shines here. A mellow Hydrogen, containing the beautiful second extra jam closes the show, but not before moving into Who Do We Do which ends the show oddly.
One of the highest quality shows you'll find in the early years, this show has many covers (15!!!). This has to be the most covers the band has ever played in one show that isn't a Halloween gig (and actually more than some Halloween gigs!) I imagine that the band had played a lot of their original material the first night (we'll never know since setlists don't exist, nor do tapes), so this night they filled with cover songs.
Anyways, this is a very solidly played extra-clean early show. The Melt the Guns>Cities is probably the finest version of the song and Lushington is also one of the best. This is also probably the best place to find the beautiful lost-at-birth Hydrogen twin jam, as well as a handful of early covers that aren't played anymore.

Editor's note: This is the second in a three part series on Denver restaurant Luca d'Italia. Visit www.vaildaily.com to read the first part.
Many Americans believe pasta is merely a foundation for sauce that's lopped on it. I don't mean to belittle American palates, but let's face it, restaurants like ubiquitous Olive Garden probably are not focusing on pasta quality. It's tomato or molten cheese and cream sauces ladled on top that diners are wanting. The pasta is just a filler; as though a filler is needed. Ever watch one of those commercials for a 3,000-calorie dinner at an "authentic" Italian chain restaurant? I have, and I don't believe I've heard them boasting about how they serve handmade pasta. That's because they don't! Nothing really authentic about that, but perhaps it's just a matter of dollars and cents.
But in fine dining Italian restaurants worth their grissini, like Denver's Luca d'Italia, pasta is made with as much care and thought as the delicious sauces, proteins and vegetables that share the plate with it. Pretty soon, kids will have to go to food museums to see the quaint way food was once actually made by hand. But I digressed.
After David Prebish finished his tedious preparation of more than 300 grissini, it was time for Eric Cimino to use the roughly 4-by-2-foot well-loved, thick wooden board for his daily pasta-making. This was one time I was happy to merely watch. I was able to observe an artisan patiently make thin sheets of pasta and cut them into strips of pappardelle and rustic pasta alla chitarra, about the size of buccatini.
Chitarra is Italian for guitar, and the pasta-making kind that originated in the Abruzzo region of Italy is aptly named. It is a wooden frame strung with thin wire upon which sheets of pasta are placed and pressed through with a rolling pin. I've heard the chitarra described as a harp. How fitting! Beautiful music comes from the strings of a harp plucked by an expert musician and delicious, truly traditional - and yes, authentic - pasta comes from the strings of a chitarra "played" by an artisan. This rustic method of making pasta is time consuming, but in a restaurant like Luca d'Italia, quality is a function of time, so time is taken. No doubt I'll have to return to Denver to learn from chef Bonanno the finer points of making pasta, both laminated using a roller and, of course, the rustic kind with a chitarra. I promise to share with you.
With pasta made, the hot line was almost ready for service at 5 p.m. (who eats at 5 p.m.!), it was time for the family meal I'd heard about all afternoon.
The family meal
Restaurants traditionally serve their staff a "family meal" between prep and service. It's usually about 4 in the afternoon and, depending on the restaurant, can be quite a nice meal. Intrigued by this quaint tradition, I recently purchased famed chef Ferran Adria's book "The Family Meal." In it are 31 menus - first, main and dessert courses - that come from now-closed El Bulli's own family meals. I love this book and I'm sure you would, too. The photos in the first pages show a big group of El Bulli's staff eating together - at tables. I've seen a smaller version of such a family meal at Zino Ristorante in Edwards. But while I've witnessed many family meals, I haven't seen much of that quiet time where everyone sits around the table and enjoys dinner together. And that's a pity. But at Luca d'Italia, the family meal, although often enjoyed standing (I don't think these guys ever sit down when they're working), is considered an important "decompression time" before the electric energy of service takes over.
Three of Frank Bonanno's eight Denver restaurants - Bones, Mizuna and Luca d'Italia - are located on the corner of Grant Street and 7th Avenue. My timing couldn't have been better that day to experience one of the summer family meals where all three restaurants jointly produce a barbecue feast. Each restaurant was responsible for certain dishes. All day long I heard about this wonderful meal and even pitched in to help make the potato salad and watched as Chris Hoffman concocted a deliriously delicious mac-n-cheese. Usually I don't take time for the family meal because I just can't eat as fast as the others, but this day was different.
The day was hot and sunny, and I welcomed being outside in the fresh air after four hours of heat in the kitchen. A big round table for the food and crates to sit on were set up. The food - ribs, mac-n-cheese, baked beans, coleslaw, potato salad, watermelon and brownies - with pink lemonade was set up for staff from the three restaurants to feast upon. I felt a bit like "grandma at a college barbecue," but the food was delicious. But while wait staff still had a few minutes to relax outside, it was quickly back to work in the kitchen. With more than 90 on the books - a lot for a small restaurant like this - of which 45 were to be seated within a 35-minute slot, chef Pritchett warned me service would be crazy. And it was.
A fly on the wall
I always love service, particularly in a fine dining restaurant such as Luca d'Italia, where everything is made from scratch. After spending time with chefs and cooks preparing ingredients to be assembled to order, it's always fascinating to experience it all coming together.
Experience is the key word here. I'm too hyper to watch. I want to do. But it seemed at first I had to be content with watching. Don't get me wrong. These were masters at work and having dined many times at Luca, I knew they were creating some wonderful sensations for their diners' palates. But I wanted to be useful and not just a fly on the wall. Ok, not a great metaphor for a restaurant, but you get my point.
One must be careful for what one wishes for. Seeing me idle, chef Seth Reaback handed me a large bin of beef tendons and put me to work doing one of the yuckiest tasks I had done in any kitchen - slicing paper-thin pieces of bovine connective tissue. These thick, gummy pieces of tendon are sliced, dehydrated and later fried to order as garnish for chef Pritchett's dry aged steak dish. The tendons - once prepared - are really quite good.
After an hour of seeing me struggle with a large (not too sharp) knife, oversized gloves and less-than-stellar knife skills, Reaback took pity and released me. Not sure if it was because he had enough for the next batch or because my slices were not exactly the thin strips he had laid out as examples. But for whatever reason, I was pleased to be done with that.
After watching Pritchett, Reaback, Cimino and Andrew Boyer perform feats of culinary - and acrobatic - excellence on the hot line, all the while ducking and moving as chefs and servers rushed by, I was ready to work again.
And I found the perfect spot that kept me delightfully busy for the remainder of the bustling evening.

RANCHO CORDOVA, Calif. – April 10, 2013 – Ducks Unlimited Inc. (DU) was recently awarded a North American Wetlands Conservation Act (NAWCA) grant to conserve 6,460 acres of habitat in northeastern California. DU's Western Region staff will collaborate with federal, state and local partners and private entities to deliver the Fall River Valley-Big Valley Wetlands Project. Approximately $2.5 million in partner funds will be paired with $1 million in NAWCA grant funds to underwrite wetlands restoration and enhancement activities. This is the first NAWCA grant project to be implemented in this focus area.
The Fall River Valley and Big Valley region overlaps the Southern Oregon-Northeast California (SONEC) region, which has been identified as one of the most important areas in North America for spring migrating waterfowl. SONEC is comprised of seven primary sub-basins, with the Fall River Valley-Big Valley region corresponding to the northeast California sub-basin. This region annually supports approximately 7.7 million waterfowl-use days during spring migration and is critical to migrating shorebirds and water birds.
Federal funding will allow DU and its partners to restore or enhance 4,921 acres of seasonal wetland, wet meadow, emergent marsh and riparian wetland habitats, as well as 1,103 acres of associated uplands. Project-related actions have already permanently protected 436 acres on a private working ranch that includes 161 acres of wetland and riverine/riparian habitats and 275 acres of mixed deciduous-coniferous uplands.
"The Fall River Valley-Big Valley region is a major link for migratory birds, connecting the Klamath Basin and Oregon Closed Basin in the north to southern wintering grounds in the Central Valley," said John Ranlett, regional biologist for DU. "Wetland and upland habitat improvements provided by this project will benefit numerous waterfowl, shorebirds, other water birds and songbirds that use the area in fall and spring migration, including northern pintails, mallards, American wigeon, green-winged teal; white-fronted, snow, Ross's and Canada geese; sandhill cranes; and long-billed curlews.
More than a dozen partners have worked with DU over the past two years to develop the project proposal and apply for the NAWCA grant: Fall River Ranch Partnership, Kramer Ranch, Shasta Land Trust, Western Agricultural Services, Fall River Resource Conservation District, Todd Sloat Biological Consulting, Steve Gaines, California Natural Resources Agency, Sierra Nevada Conservancy, USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, California Department of Fish and Wildlife and North American Wetlands Conservation Council.
Ducks Unlimited Inc. is the world's largest non-profit organization dedicated to conserving North America's continually disappearing waterfowl habitats. Established in 1937, Ducks Unlimited has conserved more than 13 million acres thanks to contributions from more than a million supporters across the continent. Guided by science and dedicated to program efficiency, DU works toward the vision of wetlands sufficient to fill the skies with waterfowl today, tomorrow and forever.

-- Provide a path to citizenship for undocumented people.
-- Preserve family unity as a cornerstone of the immigration system.
-- Provide legal paths for low-skilled immigrant workers to come and work in the United States.
-- Restore due process protections to immigration enforcement policies.
-- Address the root causes of migration caused by persecution and economic disparity.
This year could offer one of the strongest chances of moving such legislation through Congress. Strong voter turnout by Hispanics who supported President Barack Obama and other Democrats has prompted Republican and Democratic leaders to say the time is ripe for immigration reform.In an appearance on "Meet the Press" Dec. 30, Obama cited it among a handful agenda items for the year."I've said that fixing our broken immigration system is a top priority," Obama said. "I will introduce legislation in the first year to get that done. I think we have talked about it long enough. We know how we can fix it. We can do it in a comprehensive way that the American people support. That's something we should get done."Last summer, the administration launched an effort to ease the situations of one group of undocumented immigrants by offering a chance to defer deportation for qualified young adults who came to the U.S. before they turned 16. The program, known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, had more than 360,000 applicants through mid-December, with about 102,000 approved. Approved applicants receive permission to work and a Social Security number.But even in announcing the program last summer, Obama called it a temporary, stop-gap measure to address one piece of the problem administratively while Congress works on a permanent solution.Ali Noorani, executive director of the National Immigration Forum, said in a Jan. 3 statement, as members of Congress were sworn in, that the "new, bipartisan climate around immigration that has emerged in the past year" was welcome."With Democrats and Republicans recognizing the moral, economic and political imperative to fix the immigration system, the 113th Congress marks the best opportunity for broad immigration reform in nearly a decade. Americans across the political spectrum are ready for action on immigration. Now is the time."Noorani cited a December poll by Politico and George Washington University that found 62 percent of Americans support a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants.

Rock climber has mishap near Bradley Falls
Rescuers assist man who dislocated knee
Published: Saturday, July 26, 2014 at 3:15 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, July 26, 2014 at 3:15 p.m.
SALUDA -- A man who was rappelling near Bradley Falls on Saturday dislocated his knee and fell into the river, according to Saluda Fire and Rescue Capt. Nicolas Edwards.
Rescue crews responded to a call for help, and the man, who declined to disclose his name to a reporter, was out of the water when emergency workers reached him.
Because the man was initially unable to walk, rescue workers used a rope system to lift him back up to the trail, and they used an all-terrain vehicle to get him out of the woods.
When he reached the rescuers' command center, the man refused medical treatment and was able to walk away from the accident.
Thirty-four rescue workers from Henderson and Polk counties responded to the call.
