So you are caught in a financial emergency and need urgent cash to resolve the situation. Your bank account is empty and you are out of money to meet the emergency. Moreover you don't want anyone to know about your tight financial situation. In such a cash-strapped situation a pay day loan is the best solution to manage your short-term financial obligation till you receive your paycheck. There are many amazing benefits of getting quick cash through this loan facility.
The first and the most obvious benefit of seeking a payday loan is it is very easy to get money. As opposed to conventional lenders payday lenders offer instant money in less than a day's time. You don't have to wait for days or weeks to actually receive cash which is mostly the case with banks and other regular lenders. In fact payday loans were instituted to serve the basic purpose of rendering instant cash to borrowers to manage their financial urgency that can't be delayed or postponed. Yahoo news
Apart from these benefits borrowers are not required to validate their credit history while applying for a loan. Due to this reason even folks with a low credit score are able to access loans through this facility without any sort of problem. Easy access to instant cash minimum lending terms no credit checks and fast approval are some of the important benefits rendered by a pay day loan facility. The only downside of these loans is they attract very high rates of interest. Similarly borrowers have to repay the loan in less than a month.
Even so most of the folks use this handy lending facility to manage their urgent financial chores between two paydays. Moreover getting a loan with affordable rates of interest is certainly possible by shopping around. Similarly you can resolve the problem of short repayment time by requesting renewal of your loan. In this way you will save yourself from any late payment fines and get more time for repaying the loan. If used prudently and repaid timely a pay day loan can be very handy in managing most of your financial obligations.

Also, tags are least important of the search factors.

They did mention the stuff you did about consistency in titling but it seemed to focus more on adding specific search criteria to your description, titles, tags, etc to make it more visible, while just noting things like confusing titles with things like dashes, etc. can cause things to be omitted if people are searching for them.
Sounds like that is more of your area of expertise though. I don't want to end up wasting your time if someone that knows better than I can offer more efficient information so I'll bow out. I can't seem to find the article at the moment as it is.

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Wednesday, Jan. 2, 2013
EDGEFIELD COUNTY, S.C. -- She's Teacher of the Year at a local school, but now a JET Middle School teacher is in the news after a brush with the law.
According to deputies, Debra Durham was speeding on Sweetwater Road on Sunday.
Durham, 52, is the wife of Edgefield Mayor Ken Durham.
"Initiated blue lights followed the car residence of Republican Road," said Capt. Chris Wash with the Edgefield County Sheriff's Office.
He says she did not stop her car until she arrived at this house.
"The guy at the house said he did not want the lady back at his house anymore," Wash said.
According to the incident report, the man at the house said he knew Mrs. Durham. The report also states she was very upset.
Just minutes after a deputy put Mrs. Durham on trespassing warning, the Sheriff's Office had a second call that she was back at the victim's house and that this time she was armed with a gun.
Deputies say Durham fired the gun, possibly in the air. According to the report, she shot the gun near the man's girlfriend's car. However, officers say they had yet another call before they could respond to that incident.
"We got a report of an overturned vehicle in the area matching the description of the car that was there earlier," Wash said.
They say Durham was the driver.
Officers recovered a gun near the crash site and later charged her with reckless driving and trespassing after warning.
Mrs. Durham has gone on medical leave from her position at the school.
"She is a wonderful kindhearted person with heart size of Texas and she is deeply sorry. She is fully supported by family and friends," said Mayor Durham about his wife.

Today we finished lesson 25. We'll start with Kiso II tomorrow.
By request, I am posting an account of mundane matters. =)
The cafeteria serves international food, so the dishes aren't particularly exotic. Pork, chicken and fish are always available. Beef, squid, clams and oysters occasionally make an appearance. It's fun reading the katakana entries. I suspect the attendants are beginning to notice that I ask for chicken curry and miso soup almost all the time. I think one of the attendants once proudly informed Aris that tinola was on that day's menu. Vegetables tend to be pickled, which is sorta okay, although I load up on fruits whenever they're available.
I swipe a magnetic card through the reader to get the receipt, then select one main dish, two (lunch) or three (dinner) side dishes, and a small bowl of soup. Sometimes I decide to get dessert as well--fruit cocktail, mostly. Although softdrinks also are free of charge, I prefer milk during breakfast and cold water during lunch and dinner. After dinner, I occasionally sip hot green tea.
Lump sum, which makes me worry a bit about other people's money management. They will probably either spend a lot at the beginning and worry at the end, or be miserly and un-fun for most of the training. =) I don't splurge, but I do also try to take the first circus and check places out.
Washing machines and drying machines are free of charge, but I feel somewhat guilty using them for just a few cotton pieces. Besides, my clothesline does nicely. I was pleased to see all of my articles of clothing still on the clothesline this morning. The pins were definitely a good idea.
Having Googled for instructions on handwashing (I love the Internet!), I feel reasonably more confident about laundry. Powder detergent seems a bit more convenient than the two bars of detergent I brought from home. There are boxes of detergent placed near the hand-wash sink and I _think_ they're meant for general use. If they aren't, I can always buy detergent at the reception.
Ironing is still a bit of a problem, as I keep worrying about forming creases on the back. AOTS provides irons in the washing room. Now if I could just figure out how to steam--I've always been curious... I also need to figure out how to use the ironing pads properly.
I'd love to hear about any questions, comments, suggestions or links that you might have. Your comments will not be posted on this website immediately, but will be e-mailed to me first. You can use this form to get in touch with me, or e-mail me at [email protected] .

Clue wrote:Thanks Tyler, that's exactly right. This bracket I posted was simply to wet a few people's appetite. I tried using the top 64 rated players, but the definition is very skewed with a lack of a current list.
In a couple months I will pick a date for registration to open. It will be first come first serve. Doesn't matter if you're 600 rated. However, 32 spots will be reserved for the top 32 rated players. If, after roughly a 2 week window, those players are not registered then those spots will be given to those on the waiting list. Only thing else I haven't mentioned is that I'm also reserving 4 spots for the 4 HOF members whom the brackets are named for.
I apologize for the confusion and certainly hope I didn't offend anyone with where they fell in the bracket. The only person who should be pissed is Jay Greenwood! How are you not in the top 64 and Lindsley is?!? I'm sure I'll do at least one of these per month as updates come along. A lot will change. Just trying to have some fun with it!
Ok, thanks.

The National Zoo's Connecticut Avenue pedestrian entrance is home to a pair of 5,000-pound bronze lions, watching over the arrival of Zoo visitors.
The reclining, full-maned lion figures, 12 feet long and nearly ten feet tall, face Connecticut Avenue and are the highlight of this busy entrance.
The muscular lions—one with its mouth open, the other with its mouth closed—were originally created in 1906 by sculptor Roland Perry. They were cast in concrete, and one set of the sculptures was placed at each end of the Taft Bridge located just south of the Zoo on Connecticut Avenue. Ninety years of weather and vibration from traffic took their toll on the sculptures, prompting Washington officials to call on artist Reinaldo López-Carrizo of Professional Restoration Inc. to save the popular Taft Bridge landmarks.
Reinaldo re-sculpted the two figures, re-cast them in high-strength concrete and the lions were returned to the Taft Bridge in August 2000. At that time former National Zoo Director Lucy Spelman met the artist and together they found a way for Reinaldo's art to be used again to cast the lions in bronze for the Zoo.
Mounted on 30-inch-high textured concrete bases, the bronze lions now stand more than 12 feet above the sidewalk and have a commanding presence on Connecticut Avenue.
The Connecticut Avenue pedestrian entrance is used by the Zoo's neighbors to the west, zoogoers arriving via Metro's Red Line, and visitors staying at the nearby hotels.

Despite decades of scientific work on the Florida panther, accurate population estimates have been difficult to come by due to the big cat's low numbers, elusiveness and secretive nature. Nevertheless, USGS scientists in collaboration with North Carolina State University researchers have developed a method to accurately estimate population size and density for this mysterious felid, the last remaining puma subspecies in eastern North America and one of the most endangered felids world-wide. Other endangered felids include: jaguars, tigers, leopards, etc.
Drs. J. Andrew Royle, Richard Chandler, and Allan F. O'Connell of the USGS Patuxent Wildlife Research Center were the principal investigators on a research team that used camera trap data to develop a revolutionary spatial capture-recapture model that not only generates statistically reliable density estimates, but does so even when individual animals are not identifiable, as was the case for the Florida panther. This work is easily applicable to other species that lack distinguishing marks and can be replicated for studying other threatened or endangered species, especially large carnivores that exist at low densities and are difficult to sample. In addition, these models can be applied to a variety of non-invasive sampling techniques, such as remote photography that limit the risk of death or injury to both animal and handlers. The spatial capture-recapture model requires that only a small number of individuals within the local panther population be "marked" or "collared" (i.e., identified).
In this particular study, the capture-recapture model was used to assist Florida's wildlife managers to collect an estimate of population size and density for a portion of the panther's range in southwest Florida, where the Army Corps of Engineers is rehabilitating the natural habitat that is immediately adjacent to the Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge, one of the last remaining strongholds of this endangered felid.
Brief Background of the Florida Panther
The Florida panther is a member of the cat family (felidae) and is recognized as a subspecies of puma. Males can reach up to seven feet in length and 160 pounds, whereas the females are generally smaller: 6 feet and 110 pounds. Their large size can be attributed to their predatory diets consisting of white-tailed deer, as well as feral hogs, rabbits, raccoons, armadillos, birds, and occasionally alligators. Though not as big as the males, female panthers often live up to twice as long in the wild (10-12 years). Male panthers have a tendency to kill one another in the wild because their current habitats are smaller than their home range of 200 square miles, whereas females tend to have smaller ranges of 75 square miles. The leading cause of death for the panther is road kill. Given the declining population of males and the 92-96-day gestation period (pregnancy), reproducing only 1-4 kittens per litter is not enough offspring to sustain the declining population, especially with the high kitten mortality rate.
The Florida panther has been considered endangered since 1967, and qualifies for protection under the federal Endangered Species Act of 1973. Since its listing, the species has remained endangered, and in the early 1990s the population reached a low between 20-30 individuals. Before this new tracking model, it was difficult to determine the appropriate conservation efforts needed to save the species because the population number was unknown.
Not only is the Florida panther the inspiration behind one of the state's two National Hockey League franchises, but along with their other cat brethren, have been inhabitants and walking the planet for nearly 30 million years.
Concluding Thought
Advances in non-invasive sampling techniques, along with enhanced modeling, can improve the understanding of animal populations and how they exist in the natural world. Accurate population numbers as well as ensuring safe research practices can help preserve the existence of the Florida panther and other endangered species throughout the world.
Research Team
In addition to USGS, North Carolina State University, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, and the Conservancy of Southwest Florida all played key roles in this study.

From a QCAD user:
I drew some lines, rectangles etc. I wanted to fill the rectangles with some hash. However I had the problem of selecting the select tools (arrow in the actual tool box). So I shut down everything and restarted the program. This time it didn't come up with the tool menu on the left as it used to the default in the old version. However, the select tool was on. I chose the rectangle to fill, filled it with some pattern, went back to drawing a rectangle and found myself back at square 1, i.e couldn't get the select arrow.

2.5-4 Hypothetical Questions
Revised to January 1, 2008
An expert witness may state an
opinion in response to a hypothetical question, and the experts have done so
in this case. A hypothetical question is one in which the witness is asked
to assume that certain facts are true and to give an opinion based on those
assumptions. The value of the opinion given by an expert in response to a
hypothetical question depends upon the relevance, validity and completeness
of the facts (he/she) was asked to assume. The weight that you give to the
opinion of an expert will depend on whether you find that the facts assumed
were proven and whether the facts relied on in reaching the opinion were
complete or whether material facts were omitted or not considered. Like all
other evidence, an expert's answer to a hypothetical question may be
accepted or rejected, in whole or in part, according to your best judgment.

FPL Energy Dedicates the World's Largest Wind Power Plant
The thing about wind power plants is that you can just keep adding to them. Take the Horse Hollow Wind Energy Center, located near Abilene, Texas: the American Wind Energy Association listed it as the largest wind project built in 2005, at 210 megawatts (MW), then credited it in July for growing to about 500 MW, helping Texas overtake California in total installed wind power capacity. On October 19th, FPL Energy held a dedication ceremony for the final expansion of the project, which has boosted its total generating capacity to 735 MW, making it the largest wind power facility in the world. The wind plant now consists of 291 1.5-MW wind turbines from General Electric and 130 2.3-MW wind turbines from Siemens and is spread across about 47,000 acres in Taylor and Nolan counties in central Texas. FPL Energy is currently the largest owner and operator of wind turbines in the world, operating more than 1,600 megawatts of wind power in Texas alone. See the FPL Energy press release.
While Texas rules the roost, Illinois plans to provide its own contribution to large-scale wind power plants. In early October, Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich announced $2.2 million in funding to Horizon Wind Energy, LLC for the construction of a 198-MW wind project in eastern McLean County. The facility is the first phase of a planned 400-MW wind power project, which is expected to be completed in late 2007. The project will create an estimated 250 construction jobs and up to 40 permanent jobs, and it will generate $1.2 million in county tax revenue while providing another $1.2 million in revenue for local farmers. The grant is being provided through the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity's (DCEO) Renewable Energy Resource Program. See the governor's press release.
Other large wind projects that have been completed lately include the 231-MW Maple Wind Ridge Farm in New York, a project partly owned by PPM Energy, and the 100.5-MW Spearville Wind Energy Facility, owned by Kansas City Power and Light (a subsidiary of Great Plains Energy) and located northeast of Dodge City, Kansas.

An extra stop was added to the Washington-Morgan Community Action Bus Line during election season but drivers for the line say no voters have taken advantage of it.
No riders have used the service to vote at the new site of the Washington County Board of Elections office on Davis Avenue since early voting began Oct. 1, the drivers said Tuesday.
"We haven't had anyone ride who's voting early so far," said CABL driver Carl Davis. "But if we did drop someone off there they would have to wait an hour before we could pick them up to take them back downtown."

SAM SHAWVER The Marietta Times
A bus from the Washington-Morgan Community Action Bus Line makes a turnaround in the parking lot near the entrance to the county board of elections office Tuesday afternoon.
He added that the wait could be as much as two hours for riders when the driver takes his hour lunch break at 11 a.m.
From Oct. 1 through Nov. 5 CABL service is being routed past the 204 Davis Ave. location of the board of elections so that folks who would like to take advantage of early voting and need transportation to the elections office can do so.
During last week's Marietta City Council meeting Councilman Tom Vukovic, D-4th Ward, said he had been told the CABL buses were dropping voters off below the elections office on Davis Avenue because the bus drivers could not turn around in the parking lot near the board of elections office entrance.

buses available
The Community Action Bus Line is including a run to the Washington County Board of Elections new location on Davis Avenue through Nov. 4 for voters who want to cast an early ballot for the Nov. 5 general election.
The final deadline for early voting is 2 p.m. on Nov. 4.
CABL buses make hourly runs from the Washington County Courthouse between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, with a lunch break from 11 a.m. to noon.
Bus schedules are posted at most area bus stop locations and online at www.wmcap.org/
Davis said Tuesday the turnaround can be tight, especially if there are a lot of cars parked in that lot, but the buses have always been able to make the turn.
Vukovic said he was glad to know the buses were able to deliver voters to the office entrance.
"But voters who ride the bus would still have to wait at least an hour to be picked back up again, and if they know that they may just be deciding not to vote at the election board office," he said.
Vukovic has expressed concern that the relocation of the board of elections office from the county courthouse to the Davis Avenue site earlier this year would have an impact on the early voting process because the office is the sole location where voters can cast an early ballot during each election.
Community Action Director David Brightbill said he's received no complaints about the bus service to the Davis Avenue location from riders or drivers.
"And we're continuing to run our normal schedule in that area, except in the early morning and mid afternoons when high school traffic is heavy on Davis Avenue," he said.
Personnel at the board of elections office said they've had no complaints about the bus service, but as far as they know there have been no early voters using the CABL to access the new office location.
Board of Elections Director Tara Hupp said as of Tuesday afternoon 1,314 early ballots had been cast-most of those by mail.
"We've had 325 people who have come in to vote," she said. "In 2009 there was a total of 3,431 early ballots, and 1,551 of those voted in the office."
Hupp noted this is an off-year election with no statewide or county-wide issues, so voter turnout is expected to be light. She added that there were at least three statewide issues on the ballot in 2009, which would have helped beef up the turnout that year.
"The number of voters often just depends on the type of election," she said. "And we've been pretty busy with early voting here this year. Many people have complimented us on the availability of parking and more room for early voting booths at this site."
Early voting at the election board office ends at 2 p.m. Nov. 4.

EAGLE COUNTY, Colorado - Concerts, events, and, oh yes, a foot of new powder helped put an exclamation mark on the 2012-13 ski season in the Vail Valley. And the season as a whole has been a good one.The Vail Cascade Resort & Spa was booked solid for the weekend, which general manager Brett Schoenfield said was a relief after last season. The two seasons were proof that those of us in the ski resort business are little more than "snow farmers," whose livelihoods depend largely on the weather, Schoenfield said.The 2012-13 season wasn't a "high water mark" for the resort, Schoenfield said, "but the snow fell in timely measure."Compared to last season, when the spring runoff was already under way by the time Vail Mountain closed, Schoenfield said the season just ended was "super."The season was a good one for the Loaded Joe's coffee shops in Vail and Avon."Saturday was particularly monstrous (in Vail)," general manger Brandt Olsen said. But this season showed a marked difference in business at the two locations, Olsen said."Usually, when Vail has such strong events, Avon's been slow," Olsen said. "Not this year - both stores were busy."The final weekend was also a good one for Buzz's Boards on its last days of the season.Monday, Nick Szydlowski was taking the last inventory of the 2012-13 season. The quiet of the store was a contrast to the previous few days."It was a good weekend for all of us (in Vail Village)," Szydlowski said. While Buzz's was busy, the store didn't do a huge rental business over the last weekend. But, Szydlowski said, "It was a great year. I'm ready for next year."Again, that's a marked contrast to the way last season ended.The Mountain Travel Research Program studies the ebbs and flows of the ski resort business. Company founder Ralf Garrison said the two seasons peaked at virtually opposite times."Last season started strong, and ended on what you might call a 'de-crescendo,'" Garrison said. "This season started slow - we're calling it the 'December divot' - and then crescendoed in March."Since Easter is usually a high-water point in most ski seasons, April often brings a falloff in business. This year, the mountains stayed open past the end of winter flights into the Eagle County Regional Airport. That meant most of the late-season business ended up coming from either second-home owners or Front Range skiers."In a few locations, the 11th-hour reservations came in," Garrison said. "But April, on a whole, is probably down this year."Some of those late reservations came in at the Westin Riverfront Resort & Spa in Avon.Kristen Pryor, the Westin's sales and marketing director, said as many as 40 room reservations came in just last week, from people either headed to Vail's final-weekend events, or coming for the late season snow.But the closing-weekend powder meant some lodges had unexpected guests past closing time.The Four Seasons Resort in Vail was supposed to close Monday for some between-seasons cleaning and maintenance. But general manager Mark Herron said the hotel was still open for guests who couldn't get out of town Monday. Some of those guests were actually hotel employees stuck in Vail and unable to get home."We've got people trying to get here from everywhere from Eagle to Dillon," Herron said.The Four Seasons just finished its second ski season, but Herron said the hotel finished the ski season up in all categories from its first year.Herron said the hotel expected to be about half full for closing weekend. It finished the season about 90 percent full.Those pleasant surprises came through the season, Herron said."It seems like every week played a different role," Herron said.The Burton U.S. Open Snowboarding Championships brought brand-new business, Herron said, and other weeks, especially in March, brought guests from different locations."We'd have spring break families from New York one week and from Los Angeles the next," he said.And, through it all, well-timed snow and a good grooming staff kept the mountain skiing well."They made the snow, and they kept the snow where it needed to be," Herron said. "I give them a lot of credit."And now it's time to move into the next season."We're already beginning the process of transitioning seasons," Schoenfield said. "We're looking forward to it."

Detox Diaries: My Three-Day "Fruit Flush"
Is three days enough time to cleanse the body for clearer skin and a smaller number on the scale? Follow one woman determined to find out
This also happened to be the day of our company-wide BBQ where there were sure to be burgers, chips, and buckets of beer. I walked in, couldn't care less about the food (funny how losing six pounds can do that to you), and had a fantastic time. All the jokes that had been made during the three days of detox about the foods I would eat when "re-tox" commenced weren't that funny anymore as now I really wanted to keep the weight off. And now, one month later, I have. I'm also about to embark on an intense 30-day exercise plan, something I know I would not have been as open to before this experience.
So I'm a believer -- in three-day detox plans that is.
Twenty-one days? Not so much.

As the regular season winds down the Kings are finding ways to win despite losing their top two scorers recently.
The Los Angeles Kings have had their share of ups and downs this year and despite having their top two scorers sidelined late in the season, they're still on course for a playoff berth and a top-10 spot in THN.
by Adam Proteau - March 28, 2011 1:55 PM UTC
The Washington Capitals have hit a high at the right time of year as they make a run for top spot in the East and in our weekly rankings.
The Washington Capitals weren't ready for their HBO close-up in the middle of the 2010-11 NHL campaign, but they're firing on all pistons as the regular season draws to a close and nearing the very top of the THN.
by Adam Proteau - March 21, 2011 2:23 PM UTC
With just eight games left in the regular season, Ilya Bryzgalov and the Coyotes are fighting to remain a playoff contender.
It is a measure of how tough the Western Conference playoff race is when the Phoenix Coyotes - who have won six of their past 10 games - can be three points behind Pacific Division-leading San Jose, yet be just four points ahead of ninth-place Dallas.
by Rory Boylen - March 15, 2011 12:33 PM UTC
As the playoffs near, Washington and San Jose are hitting a high, but there's still no doubting which team is the one to beat.
Two teams wrapped with the stigma of underachieving at the most important time of the year have caught fire and are coming on strong after letting off the gas a little during the regular season.
by Adam Proteau - March 7, 2011 3:25 PM UTC
There's a new team atop our weekly rankings, but the New Jersey Devils are also gradually making their way up.
In one of the biggest comebacks the NHL has seen in the post-lockout era, the New Jersey Devils have rebounded from virtual irrelevance and clawed (a) back within shouting distance of a playoff berth; and (b) further up the THN.
by Adam Proteau - March 1, 2011 2:30 PM UTC
With help from familiar - and not so familiar - faces the Sharks jump from ninth to sixth in our weekly rankings.
Some people laughed when San Jose Sharks GM Doug Wilson acquired Kyle Wellwood and Ben Eager in mid-January. But since then, the joke has been on the Sharks' opponents and those who believed San Jose couldn't make a big move up the weekly THN.
by Adam Proteau - February 14, 2011 3:13 PM UTC
The Ducks streak puts them in a prominent spot in our weekly rankings, but it's a familiar team on top again.
Nobody picked the Anaheim Ducks to win their own division this season, let alone be challenging for home ice advantage in the playoffs. But they're doing both those things, as well as moving up the THN.
by Adam Proteau - February 7, 2011 2:00 PM UTC
Riding the hot play of Carey Price, Montreal climbing up the standings and THN's weekly power rankings.
For the second straight season, the Montreal Canadiens are reaping the rewards that come with having a white-hot goalie, only this time, it's Carey Price (who is making a case for team, if not league MVP) in the regular season and not Jaroslav Halak in the playoffs.
by Adam Proteau - January 31, 2011 2:31 PM UTC
In our weekly team rankings, the top three look familiar, while the Bruins are being aided by Zdeno Chara's strong play.
Zdeno Chara was one of the biggest draws of the NHL's 2011 all-star weekend and he's also a huge reason the Boston Bruins remain in the top 10 of THN.
by Adam Proteau - January 24, 2011 2:25 PM UTC
The Dallas Stars have been a surprise all season long, so it probably shouldn't be a shock to see them in the top five in our weekly rundown.
With just two regulation losses in their past 10 games, the Dallas Stars are serving notice that the first half of their season was no accident – and that they'll remain near the top of the THN Power Rankings for some time to come.
by Adam Proteau - January 17, 2011 2:15 PM UTC
The Carolina Hurricanes recent run see them jump six spots in our weekly rankings, but it's the Vancouver Canucks still on top.
The Carolina Hurricanes currently are sitting outside of a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, but if they keep playing the way they have of late, they'll continue to rise up the standings – and the THN Power Rankings as well.
by Ryan Dixon - January 10, 2011 3:12 PM UTC
Nashville jumps a few spots thanks to a winning streak, while the Canucks take over No. 1.
The Nashville Predators have been a consistent team over the years, but they're having some serious mood swings this season. The Preds are currently riding a five-game winning streak, which will shoot you up the incredibly compact Western Conference standings in a hurry.

Beer Fest to feature more than 100 brews
Published: Friday, November 15, 2013 at 10:42 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, November 15, 2013 at 10:42 p.m.
The smell of hops will fill the air Saturday at Southdown Plantation as the inaugural Bayou Beer Fest allows guests to sample more than 100 craft beers from across the country.
Want to go?
Where: Southdown Plantation, 1208 Museum Drive.
When: noon to 5 p.m. Saturday.
How much: $35 general.
admission, $15 for designated drivers.
The festival run from noon to 5 p.m. under Southdown's Buquet Pavilion, 1208 Museum Drive.
General admission will cost $35 and $15 for designated drivers. You must be at least 21 to attend.
Beer samples will be distributed in 2-ounce glasses and Cannata's Market will sell food and non-alcoholic beverages.
Joel Ohmer, one of the event's organizers, said the idea for the fest formed about a year ago when he and friends, Jim Barrett, Charles Gaiennie and Willie Rollins, started a group called the Bayou Beer Society.
The group created a Facebook page and website to review different craft beers each week.
"We asked our fans what they thought about having a festival here in Houma," he said. "And the likes just kept coming."
So the group started planning.
"It took the better part of this year to go from having this idea and laughing about it to setting everything up," he said. "It's taken about 11 months."
Gaiennie said he festival will give guests a chance to try craft beer and learn what they like.
"It's not really about the beer drinking," he said. "It's about experimenting and having fun with it."
The fest will also feature several local home brewers distributing their beer to the public for the first time.
Gaiennie said he enjoys home-brewed beer because of its unique taste.
"It's a lot like a gumbo," he said. "Everybody's got something different to add to it."
Ohmer said he expects 750-1,000 people to attend the inaugural festival.
"Word's getting out," he said. "So we're pretty excited."
Proceeds from the event benefit the Louisiana Military Family Assistance Fund and the Tri-Parish Veterans Shelter.
Representatives from the Regional Military Museum will bring military vehicles to the festival grounds for guests to view.
Ohmer said he's excited to see what the future holds for the fledgling festival.
"I'm expecting this to become a yearly happening," Ohmer said. "I want it to really become a part of the landscape."

Point of Entry continued his march through the most prestigious turf races in the country on Saturday, circling outside on the far turn to the front and then holding off two determined challengers to win the 112th running of the Grade 1, $500,000 Woodford Reserve Manhattan Handicap at Belmont Park.
The 5-year-old Phipps homebred, ridden by Hall of Famer John Velazquez, took the 1 ¼-mile fixture for 3-year-olds and up under top weight of 124 pounds in a time of 2:02.55 over yielding ground.
With the victory, Point of Entry has now won seven of his past eight starts, five of them Grade 1 races, with his only defeat coming by a half-length last November in the Breeders' Cup Turf.
Although he had not raced since February 9, when he won the Grade 1 Gulfstream Park Turf Handicap, Point of Entry proved fit and ready to run over the deep turf course to the delight of Hall of Fame trainer Shug McGaughey.
"For a horse who's only run one time since last November, carrying 124 pounds, I think it was probably starting to tell on him a little bit the last eighth," McGaughey said. "As I told Johnny [Velazquez] today, 'It's going to be a grind for this horse today.' Soft turf, 124 pounds, hadn't run but one time last November. I'm very, very proud of what I saw today."
When the gate opened on the field of eight, long shot Plainview popped out to a 2 ½-length lead coming out of the first turn heading down the backside. Runner-up Optimizer secured a stalking spot in second place, well clear of Bombaguia and Real Solution.
After six furlongs in 1:12.94, the leader fell away and Optimizer took over with five-sixteenths of a mile to go. Point of Entry, meantime, moved from his fourth-place position and gradually began to reach the front. At the top of the lane, he engaged Optimizer and the two battled through the lane with Point of Entry holding a slight lead.
Real Solution, making his second start outside of Italy for trainer Chad Brown, rushed to join the fray on the outside, but Point of Entry held on and began to edge away at the finish to win by 1 ½ lengths. Optimizer held off Real Solution by a neck.
Finnegans Wake finished fourth, followed by Twilight Eclipse, Plainview, Side Road and Bombaguia.
"We all know that this type of course is not his favorite, but every time you ask him to run, he gives you everything he has," Velazquez said. "Sometimes it looks like he's not going anywhere, but he's running hard. He's so big it takes him a long time to get going, but he still runs his heart out."
The victory was the ninth in Point of Entry's 17-race career, and McGaughey said he would now be pointed toward the Grade 1 Man o' War on July 13 at Belmont Park.
The $300,000 winner's purse increased his lifetime earnings to $2,314,490.

- Chaotic home environment
- Genetic risks (drug or alcohol abuse sometimes can run in families)
- Lack of nurturing and parental attachment
- Factors related to a child's socialization outside the family may also increase risk of drug abuse.
- Inappropriately aggressive or shy behavior in the classroom
- Poor social coping skills
- Poor school performance
- Association with a deviant peer group
- Perception of approval of drug use behavior
Substance Abuse Symptoms
Friends and family may be among the first to recognize the signs of substance abuse. Early recognition increases chances for successful treatment. Signs to watch for include the following:
- Giving up past activities such as sports, homework, or hanging out with new friends
- Declining grades

- Forgetfulness
- Disappearing money or valuables
- Feeling rundown, hopeless, depressed, or even suicidal
- Sounding selfish and not caring about others
- Use of room deodorizers and incense

The sound of silence echoes with meaning in "Tribes."
British playwright Nina Raine got the idea for her breakthrough play from a documentary she watched about a deaf couple expecting a baby. They hoped their child would be born deaf as well. She began to wonder about the things we inherit from our parents and how families define their identity as a clan.
"Parents take great pleasure in witnessing the qualities they have managed to pass on to their children. Not only a set of genes. A set of values, beliefs. Even a particular language," she writes in her program notes for the play, which is making its hotly anticipated regional premiere at Berkeley Repertory Theatre through May 18. "The family is a tribe: an infighting tribe but intensely loyal."
In "Tribes," which has been a hit from London to New York, Raine spins an epic family drama around a deaf man born into a family famed for its verbal prowess. Billy (played by James Caverly) has been taught to read lips so he can fit into this loquacious brood, but of course, much of who he is and what he wants to communicate has always been lost in translation. He has never been taught sign language. In a family of verbal warriors, he has never found his voice.
"It is rare to encounter a play that covers so much ground for each character, spanning the worlds of deaf and hearing, interweaving the intellectual and the emotional, being so intense and so funny all at once," says director Jonathan Moscone of "Tribes." "It's so human, and I love it."
Family dysfunction
Billy has never questioned his place in the family hierarchy. His father is a poet and a critic who disparages everyone and everything. His mother is a novelist. His siblings are all artists drunk on their own muses. Only when he meets and falls for Sylvia (Oregon Shakespeare Festival vet Nell Geisslinger) a woman raised by deaf parents who has begun to lose her own hearing, does he realize that he is desperate to be heard amid the cacophony.
Raine ("Rabbit," "Tiger Country") confesses that much of the dysfunctional family dynamic in the play is steeped in her own upbringing as part of a literary family where tongues were as sharp as minds. Her father is poet Craig Raine, and her mother is an academic. She's the grandniece of Russian novelist Boris Pasternak and her brother Moses is also a playwright. Indeed, she is currently at work directing his Russian family drama "Donkey Heart," which also riffs on their childhood, in a sense.
"You might say we are both looking at the same family, it's just relocated onto a different stage," says the Oxford-educated writer during a break in rehearsals for "Donkey Heart" at London's Old Red Lion Theatre. "These are the voices in your head, the things that echo."
Raine also interviewed many deaf people to capture the experience of that community. She also learned some sign language and delved into the cultural complexities of the deaf world.
"I can't imagine losing my hearing," she says candidly. "I learned so much, for instance, no two people are the same degree deaf. The most depressed people were the ones who had been hearing and knew what they were losing."
She also drew on the insights of one of her relatives. who has dyslexia and never quite fit into hyper-verbal realm of the rest of the family.
"It was interesting that someone in a very literary family was not part of the tribe," she says. "I wanted to take that a little further and make it more extreme by making the person deaf."
Fitting in
Certainly all of us feel excluded from our families at one point or another, which is why "Tribes" resonates on so many levels.
"'Tribes' is such a beautifully written play and so rich in emotional and psychological detail that it has been an endless excavation for the cast and me," says Moscone, best known as artistic director of California Shakespeare Theater, "and as tough as the work has been, it has been nothing but joyful for me to walk into a room and dig into Nina's language of ideas and feelings."
One of the most praised aspects of the play is how cleverly it gives the audience a sense of what it is like to miss some of the shades and nuances of conversation. Supertitles are projected throughout the play, especially to translate what is communicated through sign language. But Raines hopes to capture the elusive nature of meaning, even for those of us who are not hard of hearing.
"You want the audience to feel close to this family, even uncomfortably close," says Raine. "But at the same time, there may be points when you feel as if you can't catch everything, maybe you are looking at the back of the actor's head, maybe there are shadows that obscure your view."
In one of the play's key scenes, Billy brings his new girlfriend home to meet his fractious family. After a volatile dinner, she sits down to play the piano for them all. A woman on the verge of deafness, she plays the notes with a new intensity.
"She is playing the piano even though she can no longer entirely hear it but she can remember hearing it," says Raine. "Billy's family is listening to her play, and they can share that moment, while he himself is left out in the cold."
"Tribes" makes the audience listen hard from start to finish, leaving us with a heightened awareness of the symphony of sound.

Pacific Ethanol Inc. of Sacramento has agreed to use grain sorghum - grown on up to 30,000 acres of California farmland - to produce ethanol at its plants, including one in Stockton.
Chromatin, Inc., a Chicago-based sorghum seed producer, said Monday that it had entered into a multiyear agreement with Pacific Ethanol involving the growing and delivery of sorghum, also known as milo, for use in ethanol production.
Chromatin held a meeting earlier this month in Modesto to recruit farmers for sorghum production that would go to Pacific and two other ethanol producers.
"We ... welcome the opportunity to provide crop producers in California with a new market for their products," said Daphne Preuss, Chromatin's chief executive, in a news release.
The seed company said sorghum offers farmers the advantage of using less fertilizer and water than corn and is tolerant to both heat and drought conditions. It can also be double-cropped with wheat or in rotation with cotton and vegetable crops.
For ethanol producers, sorghum has a smaller carbon footprint than corn, and its use qualifies as advanced biofuel production, eligible for financial incentives, Chromatin said.

Kelly Osbourne is engaged.
According to Us Weekly, Osbourne's man Matthew Mosshart, 29, quietly proposed just a few weeks before Christmas. The 28-year-old E! "Fashion Police" co-host has been dating Mosshart for more than a year and is said to be "really excited."
"Kelly is the happiest she's ever been," a friend told Us Weekly. "Her career is going well, and she's in a healthy relationship with a wonderful guy."
When reached for comment, Osbourne's father, legendary singer Ozzy Osbourne said "PFFTARRRGGGOOOTOODOLENARG."
"I couldn't believe that he truly liked me because I never think people ever could," Osbourne said of vegan chef Mosshart to U.K. magazine Fabulous in an interview in October. "But I'm so happy. I don't think I've ever really known what love is like before."
This is where a Foreigner song is supposed to start playing.
Osbourne reportedly met Mosshart at friend Kate Moss' wedding in July 2011. They went public in Dec. 2011 when they smooched in public in NYC.

Banana Apple Muffins (Treats For Co-Irkers)
Banana Apple Muffins (modified from The Sweet Melissa Baking Book) YIELD: 16-18 muffins
For the apples:
2 TBSP unsalted butter
3 TBSP firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 apples, peeled, cored, and shredded (I used the food processor)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
For the batter:
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup oat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups very ripe mashed bananas (2 to 3)
For the streusel topping:
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3 TBSP butter, room temperature
Mix above ingredients until crumbly. This makes more than you'll need for this recipe. I just keep a big of this in my freezer and use when needed.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line muffin tins with muffin papers and spray papers lightly with cooking spray.
To make the apples:
Preheat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and brown sugar and heat until bubbling. Add the apples and cinnamon and saute until golden and tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the vanilla. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool for a bit.
To make the muffin batter:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. In small bowl or measuring cup, combine the orange juice and the vanilla. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in three batches, alternating with the orange juice mixture, mixing well after each additions. Scrape down the sides of the bowl after each flour additions. Stir in the mashed bananas and the reserved apples.
Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tins, about 1/4 cup per muffin. Top with about 2 tsps of streusel mixture.
Bake for 24-26 minutes. Allow muffins to cool in pan for 5 minutes before removing from pan to cooling rack to cool completely.

Oh Dear Lord in Heaven! These may be the best thing we've had yet(except for your cheesecakes, cookies, bars ...err well, I love everything you've made)
There's just something about these that hit the spot. They were insanely moist and flavorful and pretty. And I may have scarfed mine down in about 4 bites.
The other coirkers better get here soon cause there's two left and I have only so much restraint.
Thank you our mirthful minikin.

I use MTR with DVD2ONEX2 (to do the burning). They work beautifully together!
Just for making backups, folks. Just for backups.
Any word on that Universal Binary release?
Works well in conjunction with Handbrake. Rip with MacTheRipper first so your drive spends less time spinning during the lengthy conversion process.
There is a Universal Binary out there... just have to dig to find it.
Works beautifully.
Won't quite do every cd, but new beta is getting there. Great program (if only) to help making backed-up dvds.
one of those necessities of life that you have to look hard to find it. very well done!
Comes with excellent, very clear instructions. Always remember: MTR only rips the original DVD to your HD. You'll need something else to do the burning.

Prince Tamino is menaced by a wild dragon. At the last moment he is saved by three mysterious women, who have been sent by the Queen of the Night. When the bird catcher Papageno appears and boasts of his heroic deed as dragon slayer, the three ladies punish him. They present the Prince with a picture of Pamina, the Queen's daughter, who has been imprisoned by Sarastro, Regent of the Sun Temple. Tamino falls in love with her. The Queen appears in person and orders him to join forces with Papageno to save Pamina. They give Tamino a magic flute for protection and the reluctant Pagageno receives a glockenspiel of magical chimes. Led by three boys, the two heroes begin their journey to Sarastro's castle. Tamino is twice prevented from entering by the gatekeepers. At the third attempt they inform him that Sarastro is nothing like the cruel tyrant that the Queen of the Night has made him out to be. Papageno finds Pamina and tries to escape with her. He is able to stall her guard Monostatos with the help of the chimes, but the appearance of Sarastro puts an end to all attempts to flee. Papageno, Pamina and Tamino are compelled to stay in Sarastro's temple and submit to a series of life-threatening trials. First of all they have to learn to be silent, which is especially difficult for Papageno. When an old woman passes, Papageno cannot restrain himself and asks her what her name is. She disappears in a clap of thunder. Papageno consoles himself with the food that is so miraculously served to them. Tamino keeps silent, playing on his flute. Pamina appears, in deep despair that Tamino is no longer talking to her. Her mother has already entreated her in vain to murder Sarastro. When she decides to end her life the three boys seize her dagger and lead her to Tamino. Protected by the flute, both of them pass the ordeals of fire and water, and have now successfully completed all the trials. Meanwhile Papageno, in his great loneliness, conjures up the old woman again and promises to marry her, »if there's nothing better to be had«. All of a sudden she is transformed into a beautiful young girl, but their time has not yet come and she is taken from him again. In his despair he decides to end his life, but the three boys remind him of the magic chimes. Their tinkling brings back Papagena, and the reunion sets them both dreaming of a happy future together. The other pair is happy, too: Tamino and Pamina are inducted into the Society of the Enlightened, which celebrates the ideals of Nature, Wisdom and Reason. Only for the Queen of the Night does the story take a turn for the worse: when she attempts to enter the temple along with her entourage she is devoured by the spirits of darkness.
Mozart's MAGIC FLUTE is the most frequently performed opera in the German-speaking world. This variegated masterpiece straddling Viennese popular theatre, fairytale, myth and the mystery of freemasonry is a puzzle even today: did Mozart and his librettist Schikaneder switch horses in mid-stream, changing allegiance from the Queen of the Night to Sarastro? Should one not distrust the holier-than-thou world of the priests and an ideology that divides the world into good and evil? Are there not traces, even, of discrepancies between text and music, as many a Mozart expert has suggested? Whatever the facts of the matter, it is the music that smooths the contradictions of the plot, elevating them to a worldly realism. The music does not denounce the characters but rather confers on the conflicts an existential dimension. Without this dimension the opera would come over as an irrational fairytale.

PARKERSBURG - Helping families work through divorce or other life changes will be the focus of the "Divorce Care" series beginning Feb. 6 at Emmanuel Baptist Church.
Eileen Filozof said the church will have simultaneous offerings with "Divorce Care for Kids" for those between ages 5 and 12 and for adults "Divorce Care" and "Single and Parenting."
The Rev. Kurt Busiek, pastor of Emmanuel Baptist Church, said the church began to have "Divorce Care" for adults eight years ago. This year the Parkersburg church will have the three courses at the same time.

Working to organize the "Divorce Care" program at Emmanuel Baptist Church were, standing from left, Dr. Cindy Prather, Dave Kaufman and Pam Tuell. Seated, from left, Courtney Harris, the Rev. Kurt Busiek and Eileen Filozof.
"We didn't think anybody was offering this kind of ministry in a package deal," he said. "There are churches that offer divorce care and maybe a church offers single parenting, but we have not found anybody within 150 miles offering all three of these programs simultaneously."
Busiek said the program is an outreach to the community. It will begin with a dinner at 5:15 p.m. and then the classes at 6 p.m.
Filozof said statistics show the national divorce rate is about 51 percent.

"The issue becomes that younger people are just not marrying," she said. "They are still having children and those relationships still dissolve. It would not be reflected in the divorce per se because there was never a marriage."
However, she said the children are still affected and may be at a higher risk.
"When we talk about our programs, particularly for the single parents, there's not an assumption there was a marriage," she said. "This is for anyone who parents alone, whether they never married or it's from divorce, a grandparent or foster parent."
Fact Box
Series Info
* Three courses, "Divorce Care," "Single and Parenting" and "Divorce Care for Kids," will be offered simultaneously.
* The program will be at Emmanuel Baptist Church, 1710 23rd St., Parkersburg, at 5:15 p.m. Feb. 6 with a community dinner and the classes will be from 6-7:30 p.m.
* For more information call the church at 304-485-5171.
Filozof said the program is a faith-based, nondenominational program and open to the public.
Busiek said "Divorce Care for Kids" will offer age-appropriate teaching in groups from kindergarten to 12 years of age.
"We may have a younger, middle and older group and we'll take the theme for the night and focus in on that group," he said.
"We had a good turnout and after it settled down we had a steady turnout," Busiek said. "I like the facet that it's kind of one stop shopping for someone who is going through a family transition. Someone can come for a meal and bring kids with them.
"There will be something for the kids and the parents will have two options; they can either focus on a parenting track or just try to focus on their issues based on relationship changes."
Filozof said the class for children has been offered before. It will look at the issue from a child's perspective to show them they are not the only ones facing the struggles and assure them what is happening is not their fault, she said.
"Each week they will learn about different topics," she said. "They will learn to deal with blended families, forming new relationships, letting go of anger, and forgiveness."
At the same time the parents are hearing the same topic, but at an adult level. Filozof said the courses are meant to be complementary.
Busiek said people in the church have come forward to offer their help during the 13-week course.
"A week doesn't go by when someone will say 'I'm in,'" he said. "We have one older member who said she wants to do what she can. A lot of these kids do not have any contact with grandparents."
Busiek said the Divorce Care is a continuous program at the church.
"It's been ongoing," he said. "Our divorce care is a little different from other churches; it has been a continuous offering, while others may have it for eight weeks once a year."
