Savannah, GA – prettiest small town in South East
Many ask what my favorite small town is. After traveling for 9 years and discovering many places around the States, I can certainly tell that Savanna, GA is one of my top-3 favorite cities. It is a small town located in the East coast in the state of Georgia (about 4 hours away from Atlanta).
Savannah is full of history, colonial architecture, moss covered oak trees and southern hospitality. And there are so many things to do in that town: walking tours, ghost excursions, beach getaways, culinary trips, etc. Any type of traveler can find something to do in Savannah. Located in the south, Savannah cuisine is also very typical to its location. According to SavannAHH! [http://savannahh.com/] it is also a very green town with many parks and historical squares well preserved for the visitors. If you like beach, Tybee island is easily accessible by car or a shuttle bus. This island, facing the the Atlantic ocean provides quiet and peaceful escape from everyday life and is also one of the best places for honeymoons or romantic day trips. Many tour companies offer fishing and dolphin viewing excursions – something definitely worth checking.
The high season in Savannah is spring and fall. Winter is relatively chill and summers tend to be very hot and humid. However, there's not bad time to visit this pretty town in Georgia simply because you can always find something to do or various places to see while there. Hope you can go there and experience the beauty of the South yourself!
How to Choose the Travel Scooter for Your Needs
Travel scooters are seen as very convenient transportation means for people looking to have an easy to handle journey experience. Now it doesn't matter if you plan traveling for larger distances or within your city of residence, there is always a design and style of travel scooter to comply with your needs. The things from below will indicate you what is there to take into account when you plan on purchasing this vehicle for your traveling needs:
* Make sure that you define the purpose of using this scooter. This means that you need to know how frequently you plan on using this vehicle.
* The same should be said about the whereabouts of using this vehicle. Do you plan to use it within your city as a transportation means when you go to work? Are you planning to ride this scooter on weekends in any of your outdoor activities?
Many people who are fan for fishing or spending their leisure at picnics with friends choose the travel scooter alternative for being able to move with more flexibility in the peak days of the week when everybody else is engaged in other outdoor activities. With the help of a travel scooter you can move at your ease between the cars and avoid crammed areas within the city.
* Another thing to look for is the design of the travel scooter. If this one is planned for outdoor leisure activities, you may need to purchase that design where you have room to store your weekend luggage. Many designs are created to help scooter riders to carry their stuff when they plan camping outdoors or go fishing.
* Another thing to take into account is the physical condition that you are into. Many disabled people are searching for their travel scooter which allows them to have more mobility without being confined to a wheel chair. These days there are scooters to combine both wheel chair and scooter features for people who are disabled and are need of moving with more mobility for their daily needs. The features are varied with every new design that you come across: various speed levels, accessories to come with the specific design and so on.
* Check with all the available designs that can bring the desired comfort to your travel scooter. You can also look for these designs online but before you actually purchase it, make sure to find out more about their comfort feature. In this respect you can go inside any of local stores and test the scooter for the comfort feature. Take a seat in any of the models and find out which one provides the best this feature for you. This is very important especially if you plan to travel for longer hours while being seated on one of these travel scooters.
* Let's not omit also here the different types such as the ones with two, three and four wheels. The ones with three and four wheels are probably the most favored for their stability feature and extra accessories they are designed with.[Top]

Well, here I am yet again having to discuss something else in adding to a subtraction - an additional situation subtracting the amount of income I make each year. This time it has to do with income tax returns and W2 forms.
Is it just me, or are W2 forms looking somewhat ..."not right"? I've heard a number of people comment about how their W2 forms didn't look quite right, as if it didn't actually state what they should have paid in for the past year for as much as they worked. Does anybody else out there kind of get that impression?

Definition of agglutinate in English:
1Firmly stick or be stuck together to form a mass: (as adjective agglutinated) rhinoceros horns are agglutinated masses of hair
More example sentences
- Lump asafoetida, sometimes called mass, is the most common commercial form, consisting of tears agglutinated into a more or less uniform mass or lump.

1.1 Biology (With reference to bacteria or red blood cells) clump together: [with object]: these strains agglutinate human red cells [no object]: cell fragments agglutinate and form intricate meshes
More example sentences

- Example sentences
- That is, part of what's monstrous about monsters is somehow this very agglutination of significance, these uncontrolled outgrowths of meaning.

- The combination of B antibodies and B antigens will cause agglutination.

text: The following provides answers for some often asked questions about the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973: When working with a student with a disability, we sometimes are concerned about making sure that we are providing accommodations appropriately. Guidelines A student is not considered by the University to be a student with a disability unless they have registered with the Disability Support Services (DSS) office. A student who tells you that they need an accommodation should be treated in the same way you would treat any student, unless faculty receives a Letter of Accommodation (LOA). Accommodations begin after the student has provided the instructor (including teaching assistants) with an official LOA from the DSS office. The student is responsible for this action. The instructor must sign the LOA Receipt Form to acknowledge requirements of the LOA. It is the student's responsibility to obtain the signature/confirmation and ensure its return to the DSS office. Accommodations must not change the educational integrity of the course or the curriculum. If you believe an accommodation will interfere with educational integrity of the course, contact the DSS office at 256.824.1997 to speak with the Senior Coordinator. All students should be held to the same educational and behavioral standards. For example, if you would allow a make-up exam for a student without accommodations due to illness, then you would also allow a make-up exam for a student with accommodations. Further, if a student without accommodations is sufficiently disruptive that you would report them to your department chair or judicial affairs, then you would do the same for the student with accommodations. If you have any questions about implementing any of these guidelines please contact DSS at 256.824.1997 or firstname.lastname@example.com before taking action. Faculty Responsibilities Identify and establish essential functions, abilities, skills, and knowledge of courses and evaluate students on this basis. Students with disabilities should meet the same essential course functions as their peers. Refer students who state they have a disability to the DSS office, if the student does not provide a LOA. Use a syllabus statement and class announcements to invite students to register with the DSS office. Expect all students to observe academic standards and code of conduct as outlined in the course syllabus and University policies. Expect the student to initiate any DSS accommodation requests. Students with accommodations of extended time on tests and/or a distraction free testing environment can take tests at the Testing Services Center (TSC). Please refer to the Testing Services Center (TSC) website for more information. Act immediately upon receiving a student's request for accommodations by providing the service or by contacting the DSS office (if unsure about request). Work to ensure that all audio-visual materials used in class are accessible (e.g., that videos shown are captioned for students with hearing impairments, etc.) Treat and protect all disability-related information as required by FERPA. For example, keep printed items, LOAs, or emails regarding student disability-related information in a protected location. Note Faculty are not legally allowed to ask students if they have a disability. For those students registered with the DSS office, faculty are not legally allowed to ask about the nature of the disability. If students choose to disclose their disability, this information should be treated confidentially.

Livelihoods and Economic Recovery
UNDP works with crisis affected communities, households, ex-combatants and their associated members, internally displaced people, and diverse local and international partners to build capacities for sustainable livelihoods recovery— particularly through improving conditions for employment creation and income earning opportunities.
Our Goals
We aim to reinforce UNDP's work on livelihoods and economic recovery in crisis and post crisis situations by adopting a more integrated approach to livelihood recovery, disarmament, demobilization and reintegration, and mine action. Our work starts early in crisis and post crisis environments, and provides peace dividends and recovery results early on. It enhances security and aims to quickly create the foundation for long term recovery and development. While in the short term we aim to stabilize crisis affected people's livelihoods, in the long term we enable inclusive economic growth and poverty reduction in crisis and post crisis countries.

40 Years of PLAYMOBIL
An adventurous journey through time
Anniversary exhibition at the Historical Museum of the Palatinate in Speyer
Extended until the 2nd of november 2014
Until july 2014 the Historical Museum of the Palatinate in Speyer, Germany will be celebrating a very special anniversary: PLAYMOBIL's 40th birthday! The first smiley-faced PLAYMOBIL figures entered the world stage in 1974, at Zirndorf in Bavaria, and since then they and their numerous siblings have achieved cult status. A total of more than 2.7 billion PLAYMOBIL figures now reside in children's rooms around the world.
But what is PLAYMOBIL's recipe for success? The "40 Years of PLAYMOBIL" exhibition to be held at the Historical Museum of the Palatinate until the 2nd of november 2014 will explore the phenomenon.
Covering a total area of about 2,000 square metres, a large number of very detailed installations on historical and modern day themes – some filling entire rooms – will take fans both old and new on a journey through time. Ten collectors involved in setting up the exhibition will share their passion with visitors.
A walk-in cave, a Roman galley and an enormous PLAYMOBIL cargo ship are just some of the exciting play areas which will invite younger visitors to come and share in the explorations.
Other features will show how artists find inspiration in the unique play system, and how the product design has changed throughout the decades – partially reflecting changes in society. But how is PLAYMOBIL actually made? The exhibition will trace the development of a PLAYMOBIL playset in individual steps, from the initial idea right through to the finished product. What does the original material look like? How is a PLAYMOBIL figure pieced together? This and many other mysteries will be revealed from December onwards at the Historical Museum of the Palatinate – and what's more, one of PLAYMOBIL's injection moulding machines will be on the spot to produce a souvenir for every visitor!
An extensive programme of further highlights for young and old is planned for the anniversary year of 2014. What is more, the Historical Museum of the Palatinate will have its first ever app to accompany an exhibition – available for iOS and Android.

LOWELL - Will it rain for this year's Springfest?
Organizers and vendors are keeping their fingers crossed that the 27th annual early-May festival in Lowell will have two days of great weather despite the tradition to the contrary.
Springfest is a fundraiser for the village. Money raised helps the village buy new playground equipment, pool items, or it adds to the village's general fund," Lowell Mayor David Pitzer said.
"It's gotta rain at least one day, or it's not the Springfest," said Dan Lang, owner of Uncle Dan's Old Fashioned Ice Cream LLC, which has been operating for several years. The company has been coming to the spring event since 2008.
Uncle Dan's features homemade ice cream churned with the help of a 3-horsepower John Deere hit-and-miss engine. The business travels around the region, offering a variety of flavors, including perennial favorites vanilla, chocolate and strawberry served in cones, waffle bowls or floats.
Dan said he enjoys the festival "because it's our hometown. We love going to the Springfest."
Fact Box
If you go
- What: 27th annual Lowell Springfest.
- Where: Buell Island Park, Lowell.
- When: Breakfast starts at 7:30 a.m. Saturday and Sunday; vendors open at 10 a.m. both days. The festival concludes at about 5 p.m. Sunday with raffle drawings. Saturday's parade starts at 10 a.m.
- Cost: No charge for admission or parking.
For him, the best part of the event is visiting with different folks, many they might not have seen since the previous year. He also said he tries to patronize the local organizations' food booths to sample what they have to offer.
Besides Lang's ice-cream-making engine, the display of antique steam engines and tractors will return to Springfest this weekend. Many of them are coming from outside Washington County, Pitzer said.
For Judy Gilham, one of the organizers of the event, it is the arts and crafts that pique her interest during the Spingfest's two-day flea market.
"My favorite part is going around looking at all the arts and crafts," Gilham said.
Doing that, she said she finds ideas for new projects for herself and to give as gifts.
Gilham has been involved with the event for about 10 years. She is in charge of parking the vendors who will sell their wares in the flea market. She's concerned about the weather, too.
"It seems like we have one day better than the other," she said.
So far, the National Weather Service is predicting partly cloudy skies with a high in the 70s Saturday and Sunday and a chance of rain Sunday.
Pitzer said the Springfest Committee expects about 30 vendors for the flea market.
Festivalgoers can expect a variety of food and items for sale, including noodles, kettle corn, jewelry and collectibles.
"It's an opportunity to visit our park and spend time in the village," Pitzer said.
Also on Saturday and Sunday, the Beverly-Waterford Chamber of Commerce has organized its third annual community yard sales in Beverly, Waterford and Lowell. Businesses are encouraged to have special sales.
or promotions. Residents are invited to have their own yard or garage sales at their homes. Organizations can make arrangements to fundraise or to promote their groups at businesses.
A list of community sale participants will be available at The Citizens Bank Co., Waterford Bank and B&W Pharmacy.
Elizabeth Tennent, chamber president, said she hopes the community sales will draw more people to the Springfest and vice versa.
"We encourage people to shop local anytime of the year to promote our local area," Tennent said. "The first weekend in May, our local shops have specials to get people 'out and about'."

- it's not a significant changei used it in my friends old gun that we didn't really need,it was more of a trial to see how this thing helped and there was almost no change,maybe like a 10fps difference but it wasn't too noticeable, we had to really try and figure out if it did anything and yes it did barely raise the fps
- liking it...this is honestly great. but i just don't give out 5 stars. no flaws at all. they said a small fps increase. the thing is to prevent double feeding. gone through over 60k rounds on my m4 and it hasn't lost any power. the reason i don't give it 5 is because it doesn't go above and beyond. it "only" has no flaws and "only" does what its supposed to do. fps is technically a bonus
- not so hotthe rubber wasn't so great, and the bucking wasn't consistent. I'd get a Guarder or a Firefly bucking. The firefly ones can be a little pricey, but it's worth the price.
- Nice pairWhile I think it would make sense not to bundle two different buckings in one package, both are good buckings. I find MadBulls fit in KWAs almost as good as the OEM ones. However you must trim off 3mm to get them into the factory Hop Up unit. Then lube the heck out of it and it seals up like a champ. It's not so much about gaining FPS as "not losing it".

Investigation Leads to Arrest of Breaking and Entering Suspects
Demby James
Westover Division Officers with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department have arrested Unique Demby, DOB: 07/02/1995, and Zachary Tyrone James, DOB: 10/16/1992, for their involvement in a recent residential breaking and entering case.
On Tuesday, September 25, 2012, at approximately 7:30 p.m., officers were dispatched to a breaking and entering call for service at a home in the 3200 block of Sargeant Drive. The victim stated that she returned home and observed a broken kitchen window and strange male in her home who exited the side door. The victim called 9-11 and gave the telecommunicator a detailed description of the suspect. Officers arrived on the scene and established a perimeter in the area, but the suspect managed to elude officers.
Excellent communication between division officers, detectives, and members of the division's Focused Mission Team were critical in this investigation that implicated both suspects in the break-in. As a result, both suspects were arrested without incident and were charged with breaking and entering with force and felony larceny. Anyone with additional information with regard to this incident or these suspects is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 704.334.1600.

National Day of Remembrance for Murder Victims
Community members light candles during ceremony
About 100 people – family and friends of more than 20 local homicide victims – gathered Tuesday evening for a ceremony organized by the CMPD's Homicide Support Group in recognition of the National Day of Remembrance for Murder Victims.
Martine Highet, CMPD's homicide support specialist, said the event was meant not only to honor the memory of those who have died, but also to recognize the impact that homicide has on surviving family members.
"Their lives will never be the same," Highet said. "They have to move on with this new normal that, unfortunately, they didn't choose. And they have to carry on."
At Tuesday's ceremony, people wore T-shirts or pins with photos of their slain relatives.
Speaking to the crowd, Police Chief Rodney Monroe said the killing of a loved one "stays with you for your entire life." Ten years ago, Monroe's sister was beaten to death in Maryland by her boyfriend.
Patsy Martin, whose son Ronald Martin was gunned down on the stoop of her Charlotte home in April, said she's become involved with the homicide support team and the Mothers of Murdered Offspring group since the killing. She said she hopes to help other families hurting in the wake of murder.
Martin said she's dealing with her son's killing by cherishing the memories she has of him.
"I think about the conversations we had, the funny things he did, the things he did to make me mad," she said. "It's how I keep him alive in my heart."
Homicide detectives and Assistant District Attorney Bill Stetzer also attended the ceremony.

Public Grand Opening of New Steele Creek Division
Chief Monroe welcomes guests during grand opening
The public got an opportunity to tour the new Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department's Steele Creek Division during the official public grand opening. The 12,500-square-foot building, which faces the intersection of Westinghouse Boulevard and South Tryon Street in southwest Charlotte, is part of the department's effort to increase its visibility across the county. Each of CMPD's 13 divisions has an office in the area it covers. But some are tucked in industrial parks and warehouse spaces.
Police Chief Rodney Monroe said police should be visible, not hidden. He noted the importance of simply being able to drive by a police station to see the presence of officers in the community. The next newly constructed police division to come online will be the Eastway Division, which will be ready to open two years from now in the Merry Oaks community.

Officers Arrest Breaking and Entering Suspects
Luhrs Giese
North Division Officers with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department have arrested, Eric Luhrs, DOB: 06/25/1992, and Allen Giese, DOB: 10/03/1993, for their involvement in a larceny from auto case. On Tuesday, September 18, 2012, at approximately 4:30 a.m., officers were dispatched to a larceny from auto in progress call for service at a home in the 10100 block of Reindeer Way Lane.
A neighbor, who was leaving for work called 911 after he observed the suspects going through the trunk of vehicle belonging to one of his neighbors. After removing items from the trunk of the vehicle, the suspects got into a pickup truck and left the area. The witness began to follow the suspects and alerted officers to the vehicle's whereabouts. Officers conducted a vehicle stop in area of Holly Ridge Blvd. Several stolen items belonging to the victim were recovered in the bed of the suspects pickup truck. Both suspects were arrested and charged with breaking and entering of a motor vehicle and larceny.
These arrests illustrate how critical it is for the community and police to work together. Had it not been for an engaged neighbor calling 9-11 to report this activity, these individuals would likely still be free to victimize our community. The CMPD continues to urge the community to call 9-11 whenever they see anything suspicious.

Robbery Suspects Arrested
Stowe Massey
North Division Officers with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department have arrested, Quentin Stowe, DOB: 04/01/1994, and Rasheed Massey, DOB: 02/16/1996, for their involvement in an armed robbery case.

The victim stated that he pulled in to park in front of the location when he was approached at gunpoint by the suspects before they demanded his money and cell phone. After removing the victim's property, the suspects ran north on Statesville Rd. towards Cochrane Dr.
During the investigation, officers were able to identify one of the suspects, and responded to his home on Prairie Valley Dr. When officers arrived, they observed two individuals matching the description of the robbery suspects. Officers approached the men and the suspects ran from officers through neighboring yards. Officers established a perimeter and took both suspects into custody a short time later. The victim was able to positively identify the men as the suspects who robbed him. Officers also recovered the weapon used in the robbery in the one of the yards the suspects ran through. Both Stowe and Massey were charged with robbery with a dangerous weapon and conspiracy. Anyone with additional information concerning this case is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 704.334.1600.

The new year offers a time of reflection, looking back over past accomplishments and mistakes, as well as a blank slate stretching out into the future, ready to be filled with plans and deeds. Just like their residents, the towns of Summit County are taking a look back over the happenings of 2012 while at the same time looking ahead into the next year.
The towns dealt with a variety of issues throughout 2012, some old, some new. Breckenridge wrestled with questions over the proposed Peak 6 expansion as well as coming up with a master plan for the future of the Riverwalk Center and the Tiger Dredge Lot. A positive economic turn came as a pleasant surprise.
"We did have some concerns going into 2012 that the economy was going to continue to remain flat or perhaps go in a negative direction," said Breckenridge Mayor John Warner. "In fact, the economy surprised us. ... It has finished up very strong. ... We came in with lower financial expenditures than we planned on and higher revenues than we planned on."
The Breckenridge Town Council received three new council members in April - Ben Brewer, Gary Gallagher and Wendy Wolfe.
Dillon also saw some changes, with former police chief Joe Wray accepting a new position as the town manager, and the appointing of Steven Neumeyer as the next police chief.
"(It) was huge for us," said Dillon Mayor Ron Holland. "We're very happy with the way that result turned out."
Holland said that 2012 was a positive year for Dillon with its work on the latest phase in the marina master plan. The town encountered some resistance from citizens regarding plans for changes to town park and took a step back to reformulate its master plan, which the town council plans to outline in a step-by-step process with opportunities for public input throughout.
Silverthorne also dealt with a matter of strong public opinion - the issue of the unfinished segment of the Blue River Trail - a paved recpath that stirred up some controversy between the town and several landowners.
Financially, the town is recovering slowly, said Silverthorne Mayor Dave Koop.
"We're slowly pulling ourselves up from 2008," Koop said. "We're not where we used to be, but I'm not sure I'd want to be in that overheated upward spiral. I'd rather have more reliable, sustainable growth which is easier to deal with and easier to make changes."
Frisco dealt closely with drought issues in 2012, including banning its Fourth of July fireworks due to high fire danger levels.
"The drought was definitely on our minds through a lot of the summer," said Frisco Mayor Gary Wilkinson.
Bright spots in 2012 included construction and lots of moving forward. Dillon went forward with a plan to spruce up its marina, including leveling and increasing its parking lot and improving a nearby recpath.
"The second phase of the Dillon Marina Master Plan was a huge project," Holland said. "That's exciting for Dillon and puts us one step closer to having the world-class marina that we wanted."
Frisco was proud of its steady financials.
"We maintained our financial standing, our budget," said Wilkinson. "Revenues were ahead of projections."
In Breckenridge, Warner was pleased with the purchase of a wedge of property on the northern side of Cucumber Gulch that connects two other pieces of property which the town wishes to preserve.
"It's something that I've been involved with since 1997," Warner said. "In 2012 we were able to buy the wedge and that completes a very good wildlife corridor from the north coming down out of peaks 5, 6 and 7 into the reserve. It's a great large mammal corridor ... and I think it's a crowning achievement."
Breck also launched a new public engagement tool in the form of a website - www.engagebreckenridge.com.
Silverthorne completed its new entrance park, River's Edge Trail, located directly north of the Wildernest and Highway 9 intersection.
"The entry park is a real good example of community getting together," Koop said. "It's one of those nice little things that continually upgrades Silverthorne."
With 2012 behind them, officials are now turning their focus on the future. Each town is beginning to look ahead to the projects and discussions of 2013.
"I'd like to see the steady improvements (in town)," said Koop, of Silverthorne, which will be reviewing its town comprehensive plan and land use schedule. "We try to make Silverthorne a place where a business could start up and be successful. ... I want to keep it a great place to live and recreate, and give everybody the opportunity to enjoy the place. "
Breckenridge also has improvements in mind.
"No. 1, I'd like to see us achieve some sort of plan to do single-use bag consumption," said Warner. "I'd like to continue to strengthen our sustainability message through bicycling, through the USA Pro Cycling Challenge, to maintain our bicycle-friendly community status. I'd love to move forward on rent-affordable housing, perhaps the design phase. I'd like to be well into the construction phase and renovation phase of the Harris Street building for the library and community center."
Holland expects good things for Dillon in the new year.
"2013 is probably going to be a pivotal year for the town of Dillon," Holland said. "We've been very lucky this year with our sales tax increases and just want to make sure we put programs in place and steady our businesses to keep that going. ... Our economic development team ... is working really hard to make things start gelling and it's going to be great for everyone."
Frisco is maintaining a hopeful outlook, while keeping an eye on the weather and the incoming visitors.
"I think the weather (is important) and the big question mark is how the construction at the Twin Tunnels is going to affect tourism," said Wilkinson. A big moment for Frisco in 2013 will be the opening of Whole Foods near the transit center.
"That's definitely a benchmark for the community to see that come in and reinforce Frisco as a regional center for retail," Wilkinson said. "We're looking forward to a nice healthy economy and a healthy environment. Frisco's a great place to live, to visit, to work in. We just want to maintain that quality of unique charm and character."

Tonight I went Christmas caroling with my daughter's choir. Despite the warmer weather we still enjoyed a cup of hot chocolate along the way. As we sang traditional holiday songs I couldn't stop thinking about one of my favorite recipes for hot chocolate. Americans often make hot chocolate by opening a package of Swiss Miss and adding it to hot water. Sometimes they even add miniature marshmallows. I prefer the traditional Spanish hot chocolate, a delicious chocolate drink so thick it's like eating hot chocolate pudding. The recipe is simple. The flavor is overwhelming as it melts in your mouth. This winter season try the following recipe for Spanish hot chocolate and I promise you'll never open another package of hot chocolate mix again!
Spanish Hot Chocolate
2 cups whole milk
2 Tbsp. brown sugar
½ tsp. cornstarch
1 tsp. orange zest
Pinch of cinnamon
4 oz. bittersweet chocolate
Whisk milk, brown sugar, cornstarch, orange zest and cinnamon in a saucepan. Heat mixture over low heat and stir constantly. Remove from heat and whisk in chocolate until melted. Return to heat and bring to a low boil. Continue stirring the mixture constantly until thick and hot. Pour into mugs and garnish with freshly whipped cream (don't cheat with Cool Whip!).

LOS ANGELES — Stanford will take one of the grandest stages in sports Tuesday when it faces Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl, with an estimated television audience of 17 million.
But the appearance would not have been possible without a season-defining sequence of events that took place far from the spotlight.
It was the middle of October, and Stanford was fresh off one of the most disappointing losses in school history -- a controversial overtime defeat at Notre Dame. The loss dropped Stanford's record to 4-2 and carried such an emotional wallop it threatened to derail the season.
Shaken to their core, the players staggered through two days of practice before coach David Shaw and a handful of seniors (tailback Stepfan Taylor, center Sam Schwartzstein and linebacker Chase Thomas) initiated a series of meetings that saved the season.
"That was the critical point,'' Shaw said.
Here is a recounting of the events that, along with the quarterback change a few week later (Josh Nunes out, Kevin Hogan in), propelled Stanford to its first conference title in 13 years.
Receiver Drew Terrell: "The hangover was strong. It was strong. On the plane ride home (from South Bend), nobody was talking. Monday was bad. Tuesday, for the first half of practice, people were like, 'What's going on?'"
Schwartzstein: "The execution wasn't there. The guys (standing) in back weren't locked in. The guys who were playing would make a mistake and there was no remorse."
Defensive end Ben Gardner: "In years past when lost a game, we always come back with our best week of practice. It was really alarming to not see the intensity.''
Schwartzstein: "Coach Shaw had to make a speech at the end. It was like, 'This wasn't a Stanford type of practice. We just got our butts whooped, but we need to have the same type of energy as when we win. We need to understand the season is on the line.'''
Thomas: "The fact that he had to mention that we weren't practicing hard after a loss, that didn't sit too well with a couple of us."
Shaw: "I told them ... we're all judged by how we respond to what happens, not on what happens. We could hang our heads, or we could say, 'We had our opportunities to affect the game.' That was our litmus test."
Defensive coordinator Derek Mason: "We asked the guys what season was going to be remembered for. 'Are you going to be defined by that Notre Dame game? Because if you are, then let's shut it down now and give away the rest of the season.'"
Schwartzstein: "Coach Turley" -- strength coach Shannon Turley — "brought Chase and Stepfan and I into his office during lifts (Wednesday morning) and told us: 'This is your team. This is your senior year. You need to address the team and get (rid of) the sense of entitlement that just because we're the new Stanford -- that's not going to work.''
Gardner: "Then Chase and Sam and Stepfan got the team together. They said, 'This not acceptable. We're not a 4-2 team, and it's going to change.'''
Thomas: "It was pretty much a test of wills to see who wanted to be great and who wanted to just be good. We challenged guys to work harder in practice. We challenged guys to prepare harder in the film room and the weight room. It was challenging them to give it their all, because we still controlled our destiny. We could still go to the Pac-12 championship and the Rose Bowl."
Tight end Zach Ertz: "The offense kind of stepped to the side and Sam and Stepfan told us that we have a decision on how the season's going to go. Just because we lost to Notre Dame and Washington doesn't mean season's over. Notre Dame's not even a conference game. It was no reason to get emotionally hijacked.''
Schwartzstein: "That day'' — Wednesday's practice '' "guys were locked in. There was energy all over the place. It got back to the feeling we've had the last couple years.''
Gardner: "I don't know if you can say that we wouldn't be (in the Rose Bowl) without it. But we were 4-2 at the time, and since then we've won seven in a row.''
Terrell: "A lot of us remember going to the Sun Bowl in El Paso (in 2009), and we vowed that we didn't want to go back. We've become accustomed to this BCS lifestyle. As seniors, we didn't want to go out with anything less than the Pac-12 championship and playing in a game of this magnitude.''

AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- You know killing someone in real life is not OK, but what if it's pretend? Well, kids do it all the time, and don't think twice when they play violent video games.
After the gun violence at Sandy Hook Elementary left 28 people dead, many are questioning how these games affect the kids that play them.
Video Game Heaven owner Chris Galamb's business is to sell video games, but he says the violent ones are not for kids.
He'll even reward parents who don't buy them because he says he's seen what they can do.
"It's just not right. It's detrimental to those kids because they don't fully understand what those games are," Galamb said.
Real versus fiction and the maturity to know the difference -- that's what it comes down to for Galamb.
When it comes to violent video games, he says they're not for kids.
"I literally will reward a parent with a discount, sometimes just for telling a kid, 'No, you can't buy that game,'" he said.
The shooting, and even execution-style killing, in the games like "Call of Duty: Black Ops" is the reason why.
"Call of Duty" is a game volunteer Bartolo Gonzales likes to play, but he wants to make sure a game like this doesn't get into the hands of a child because he's experienced first hand what video game violence can do.
"A Plantation Acres shooting. My nephew was involved in it. Twelve years old. Shot the boy," Gonzales said.
Gonzales is the uncle of the 12-year-old who accidentally shot and killed 10-year-old Hunter Morris after finding his parent's pistol in the house.
"In the midst of them playing it, they were actually playing 'Call of Duty: Black Ops,'" Gonzales said.
"It really hit me hard. Then and it made me think of my stance on everything. I've always been against children playing these games, but until you really see it firsthand, you don't really feel the impact of it," Galamb said.
Now the two hope they can spread the message of responsible gaming.
"It does break my heart to see a child get a game that they should never own, and I will make sure every time that a parent understands I don't recommend you let him play this," Galamb said.
"I'm hoping and praying every day that parents wake up and realize that their child should not be playing a game like that," Gonzales said.

The Daily Startup: SiSense Funded to Tackle U.S. Market for Business-Intelligence Tools
Top stories in today's VentureWire:
Israel-based SiSense has launched into the U.S. market with a fresh infusion of capital and a business intelligence tool that enables users to crunch and visualize the results of a terabyte of data, using only a sub-$1,000 laptop with 8GB of RAM. Founded in Tel Aviv in 2005, the company has now raised $8 million from investors including Opus Capital and Genesis Partners and recently opened an office in Redwood Shores, Calif., across the road from a competitor Oracle.
Vimo, a company that designs and sells online shopping portals for health-insurance plans, is seeking to double the amount of venture capital it has raised to meet an expected spike in demand. It has snagged California and one other, undisclosed state as customers and is talking to new and existing investors as it raises a $30 million Series E round.
Also in today's VentureWire, ICR Turbine Engine raised $10 million in Series A funding led by New Venture Partners for its ultraefficient multifuel turbine engine that cuts emissions…Proterra has received $23 million in Series B funding to roll out its all-electric buses nationally. The buses, which it has already sold to seven U.S. transit authorities, charge in 10 minutes, the company says…and Chango has drawn an additional $12 million in funding from its existing Series B investors to scale up its search retargeting and newer search advertising technologies, as the demand for search advertising continues to grow in the U.S.

Elsewhere around the Web:
The Wall Street Journal has launched a new blog focused on the challenges and opportunities of launching a startup. Called The Accelerators, it features a weekly question and brings in responses from entrepreneurs, angel investors and venture capitalists, who share their first-hand experiences. This week's featured question, which is a crucial one for entrepreneurs: Where do founders most often go wrong with their business plans? And what's the best way to avoid the pitfalls? WSJ's team of "accelerators" will be talking about the topic all week, culminating in a video Spreecast on Friday.
Fred Wilson of Union Square Ventures explains why the road is harder now for consumer Internet companies who are trying to raise follow-on financing. The post was prompted by this Venture Capital Dispatch item. Dave McClure of 500 Startups has a different view, writing that the sector still holds great opportunity for entrepreneurs, angels and smaller venture funds.
Entrepreneur Brian Lee is partnering with celebrities such as Jessica Alba and Kim Kardashian to create e-commerce startups. The New York Times reports on how he updates an old marketing trick by using celebrities' social media ties to fans to sell products online.
A feature of the dot-com bubble — stock-buying programs for friends and family of hot companies holding IPOs — has become less common in recent years because of new regulations and stock-market uncertainty, The Wall Street Journal reports.

HUNTSVILLE, Texas – The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi Women's basketball team cut an early deficit to one with five minutes to play in the first half but Sam Houston State's Britni Martin tallied 26 points to lead the Bearkats to a 65-46 Southland Conference opener Friday afternoon at Bernard G. Johnson Coliseum.
Jessica Jammer paced the Islanders (1-11, 0-1 SLC) with 12 points, her third straight double-figure scoring game and fourth this season while Alisa Roberts and Ashley Darley each chipped in seven points. Brandi Huff grabbed a team-high six rebounds and Janae Blount added six points and three assists. The Islanders' bench outscored the Bearkats' bench 18-10 and scored half of their points in the paint.
Martin led the Bearkats (5-8, 1-0 SLC) with 26 points on 6-of-9 shooting from the field, including four from behind the arc and recorded a perfect 10-for-10 from the charity stripe. Sequeena Thomas added nine points and led the glass with 10 rebounds. The Bearkats' notched the 45-29 rebound battle.
The Bearkats jumped out to a 7-0 lead before Jammer got on board with a jumper. Sam Houston State extended the lead to 11-2 before Blount nailed a jumper and after two from the Bearkats' charity stripe, Roberts hit back-to-back buckets to pull the Islanders within five. After trading buckets, the Islanders put together a 12-4 run to trim the lead to one with 8:20 to play. The Bearkats however kept clawing off the Islanders and maintained the lead by one. After a Jammer jumper with 5:16 to play, Sam Houston State built a 12-point cushion on a 13-2 run to end the half. During the run, Martin tallied 10 of the Bearkats' points.
Sam Houston State headed into halftime with a 35-23 lead on 44 percent shooting from the field. The Islanders were led by Jammer's eight points while Roberts and Blount each added four. Martin led the Bearkats' with 17 points, including 9-for-9 from the free throw line. Thomas led the boards with nine and chipped in seven points.
In the second half, the Bearkats went on a 17-4 run with 10:20 to play to extend the lead to 58-33. Huff and Roberts followed with points from the charity stripe to cut it to 21. The Islanders finished on a 9-7 run to end the game as the Bearkats secured the conference opener.
The Islanders will continue Southland play on Monday, Jan. 7, when they host Stephen F. Austin at the American Bank Center. Tipoff is slated for 6 p.m.

With Jang Execution, North Korea In Uncharted Waters
North Koreans React to Top Official's Execution
North Korean scholars have come to expect the unexpected.
Even so, few analysts predicted North Korea's dramatic Friday the 13th announcement that it had executed Jang Song Thaek, the country's de facto No. 2 leader and uncle of Kim Jong Un.
The announcement of Mr. Jang's purge earlier in the week, itself unusual, had certainly put that possibility in play. But no one foresaw the public nature of the execution, complete with pictures of Mr. Jang being hauled before a tribunal, which was particularly jarring for the grim glimpse it offered of deep division at the highest levels of power in Pyongyang.
Nor did they foresee the 2,700-word laundry list of Mr. Jang's alleged crimes, from plotting a military coup to disrespecting a marble carving of Mr. Kim's signature and failing to clap wholeheartedly upon hearing news of his promotion.
Taken together, most North Korea watchers have agreed on at least this much: the past week's events have dragged North Korea into new and uncertain territory.
"No leader has been so dramatically removed since the 1950s," said Charles Armstrong, a Korea scholar at Columbia University who recently published a book on the North Korean regime.
While it had become a matter of broad consensus that Mr. Kim would seek to shake off his regent, Mr. Armstrong was surprised at how quickly and how publicly Mr. Jang's ouster took place.
"Kim Jong Un is trying to make clear that he's very much in charge," he said in an interview.
That last sentiment isn't universally shared. Marcus Noland, deputy director of the Peterson Institute for International Economics, sees Mr. Kim's power play as a sign of weakness.
That's especially true if South Korean reports are correct in suggesting that at least one of Mr. Jang's aides had left the country with highly classified information, and was in the custody of South Korean authorities — a potential trigger for the sudden purge.
"North Korea is pretty opaque and there are lots of rumors, and usually I discount them," Mr. Noland said, "but for the past week the rumor mill has been right."
Jae Ku, director of the U.S.-Korea Institute at SAIS of Johns Hopkins University, said the focus in coming days could also turn to Mr. Jang's wife, Kim Kyong Hui, the sister of Kim Jong Il and the aunt of the younger Kim.
So far, Ms. Kim has been conspicuously absent amid Mr. Jang's fall, and it's unclear whether she countenanced her husband's purge, or whether she herself may be a target. The couple have been rumored to be estranged for years.
Also noticeable for her absence has been Ri Sol Ju, the wife of Mr. Kim, who Mr. Ku notes has been rumored to be linked to Mr. Jang. Ms. Ri hasn't been seen in public for nearly two months.
"Totalitarian states don't just take out the fall guy. They have to root out everyone that's close to him and around him," Mr. Ku said.
For all the turmoil in recent days, Messers Ku and Armstrong agree that Mr. Kim could emerge from the shake-up even more powerful.
"Kim has been in control for a while, and he has his own allies in the army and the party, and this is his personal consolidation of power, at the expense of his uncle," Mr. Armstrong said.
"He's much more confident about his grip on power than many people had expected," Mr. Ku said. "If he can come out somewhat unscathed, then Kim's hold on power will be much more stable."
Even if they are correct, there is likely to be more terror in North Korea in the meantime, says Mr. Noland, who points to the central nub of the charges against Mr. Jang — "factionalism."
Among North Korea's insular elite, Mr. Jang had hundreds of underlings who likely answered to him, from both the Workers' Party of Korea and the Korean People's Army.
"He was involved in every part of government," Mr. Noland said. "Taking him out like this in operatic fashion is going to set off a chain reaction among his people who may not have any policy views, but who are attached to him."
How many people is that? Nobody knows for sure, but the number is likely to run into the hundreds and even thousands.
"They suddenly have a target on their backs," Mr. Noland says.
Adds Mr. Ku: "It will be bloody and similar to the purges of the 1950s and 1960s."

Volunteers dismantle Stadium Field seats for reconstruction project
April 7, 2013
PARKERSBURG — Preparations for the reconstruction of Stadium Field began Saturday with the removal of the bleachers from the home side of the 90-year-old facility....
Maybe lights out, thats becuase people like you think that education is a basic right. An entitlement that the government is to just stick an I.V. in the vein of your children's arm and the child will magically be the smartest kid on the block. Sorry, it takes parents and "fans" like they have disassembling the bleachers now to make that happen. Not a bunch of na sayers that sit on their arses talking about how bad the system worked for you. Keep up the good work north end, I can't wait for the rivalry to play out in a new stadium.

"Don't get upset if it takes us a while to text you back. Sometimes we just have other things going on at the time, or we don't want to seem too overeager. Sometimes I'll text before I jump on a subway home and am stuck underground for an hour." —Alex S.
"It's really attractive when a girl takes initiative in bed; a guy won't think any less of you. It doesn't always need to be a tit for tat thing with giving and receiving.

I can't explain how refreshing it is when it feels like it's 50-50." Greg G.
