The Beatles are making a comeback this weekend in "Classical Mystery Tour: A Tribute to The Beatles," performed live in concert with the Breckenridge Music Festival orchestra.
The show takes place at 7:30 p.m. at the Riverwalk Center Saturday.
Not only do the four musicians in Classical Mystery Tour sound like The Beatles, they look a lot like them, too. The show features more than 24 Beatles tunes performed exactly as they were originally recorded, including favorites like "Penny Lane" with a live trumpet section, "Yesterday" with an acoustic guitar and string quartet and "I am the Walrus" with a classical/rock twist.
"We really make an effort to sound exactly like the originals," said band member Jim Owen, who admits that he and the rest of Classical Mystery Tour are big Beatles fans. "The orchestra score is exact, right down to every note and instrument that was on the original recording. On 'Got to Get You into My Life,' we have two tenor saxes and three trumpets. That's what it was written for, and that's what we use," he said.
Before the concert, guests can attend a $10 pre-party on the lawn by the Blue River hosted by Applause!, the festival's fundraising arm, where they can enjoy "Give Peace a Chance" appetizers and a "Strawberry Field" dessert bar. There will also be Beatles trivia and a raffle to win a Beatles remastered stereo CD box set.
Tickets for the "Classical Mystery Tour: A Tribute to The Beatles" range from $25-$45 depending on seat preference. Purchase tickets through the Riverwalk Center box office at www.breckenridgeriverwalkcenter.com or call (970) 547-3100.
The concert is part of the Blue River Series, a summer program of popular music offered by the Breckenridge Music Festival in addition to its annual classical repertoire.

News 12 at 11 o'clock / Thursday, April 18, 2013
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- The largest fertilizer plant in Georgia is located in Augusta. PCS Nitrogen is just off Laney Walker Boulevard near Bobby Jones Expressway.
"The way the eagle fly it's really, really close compared to the magnitude of the stuff they have down there," said Leon McCray, who lives in east Augusta.
His house is about a quarter mile from the fertilizer plant. When he turned on the news Thursday, he found out what had happened in West, Texas.
"First thing that come to mind, we got a plant here and what would, what's the possibility?" he said.
The fertilizer plant in Augusta is considered a world-scale operation and is one of the largest plants on the East Coast.
"It's something we work very hard to keep from happening in our facility," said Keith Wilson, ammonia technology manager at PCS Nitrogen.
Plant officials in Augusta say they take every precaution to make sure their employees and the community are safe including looking at what went wrong in Texas.
"We have a chance to review that and see if there are lessons learned," Wilson said. "Look at our protection systems and mitigation systems and see if there's anything we need to learn from or improve in our facilities."
They already have a lot of safety measures in place, including yearly drills going through all sorts of scenarios with outside agencies like Richmond County EMA. They also have safety systems built into each room at the plant as well as first responders on site.
"We have employees on each of our shifts that are trained as firemen and also as hazardous material emergency responders," Wilson said.
McCray says it's great to hear they have so many safety measures, but it doesn't stop him from worrying.
"It makes you feel comfortable, but all it takes is one time," McCray said. "One individual or one incident. One time is all it takes and that can be disastrous."
As we saw all too clearly Wednesday night.
The PCS Nitrogen plant has been in Augusta since early 1960s and employs more than 300 people.
They recently hit a safety milestone at the plant. Five million work hours without lost-time accidents, which equals about three and a half years of safe work.

A U.S. Medical worker treating a patient with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) is likely the first U.S. health care worker to contract the disease.
The CDC is not releasing information on the health care worker's whereabouts, only that the person has been added to the list of suspected SARS cases.
Meanwhile, on Capitol Hill, top health officials testified before the House Government Reform Committee, saying they will not rest until they know how to prevent and treat this highly contagious disease.
"We know that we have much more to learn about this virus and this disease so that we can develop the tool that we need to prevent, treat, and contain it," Sec. Tommy Thompson, Health and Human Services.
The number of suspected SARS cases in the U.S. is now at 154, and worldwide, the total has reached more then 2,500 people.

Anglo American's New Boss Gets Tough on South Africa's Government
South Africa's turbulent mining sector looked set to get rougher Thursday after the incoming chief executive of one of the largest operators in the country, Anglo American, shot a warning at the country's government: Threats won't help.
The comments come as Anglo American finds its plans to restore profitability at its loss-making platinum business in South Africa by shutting two mines and selling another, hindered by the government, which objects to the loss of 14,000 jobs.
The Secretary General of ruling party the African National Congress, Gwede Mantashe, has called on the government to revoke the licenses of mine companies that shut operations and dismiss employees.
"The threats to licenses are out of order," said Mark Cutifani, who is CEO of Africa's largest gold producer AngloGold Ashanti, but will take the helm of Anglo American in April.
"We shouldn't be threatening licenses when a company is looking to preserve its life," Mr. Cutifani said at the annual Mining Indaba conference in Cape Town, the continent's largest mining industry gathering.
The country's platinum-mining sector is in a precarious position, "bleeding cash", as CEO of Anglo American Platinum, Chris Griffith, said Monday.
Mining companies must restructure their operations to stay afloat. Outgoing Anglo American chief, Cynthia Carroll, said the proposed closures and layoffs are necessary for the business.
Despite these protestations, the government hasn't taken well to Anglo American's plan to downsize.
South African President Jacob Zuma said this week that mining companies who threaten to close unprofitable or risky mines were engaging in "blackmail". The country's mining minister, Susan Shabangu, said Anglo has, "disappointed the country."
Ms. Shabangu did seek to soothe nerves on Tuesday, saying the country needs investment and wants to work with mining companies, not fight with them.
Mr. Cutifani also had some conciliatory words. He said that "2013 is an opportunity for South Africa to redefine its place…it's going to take dialogue."
Anglo American will start talks next week with the mining ministry and unions to lay out exactly why they need to shut shafts. Those engagements will take place over the next 60 days and should conclude just as Mr. Cutifani officially takes over his new post. The government says it hopes they can find some alternative.
Still Mr. Cutifani made his position clear: the government can't blackmail the industry.

Have you heard about the new McDonald's Bacon Clubhouse Burger? If you Google the new burger, you'll see that the big news here is that this is the only burger besides the Big Mac that features the "special sauce" that graces its big brother burger. It appears that people are excited about the use of the Big Mac "special sauce" on a sandwich that isn't the Big Mac.
The Bacon Clubhouse Burger is attempting to appeal to a more sophisticated audience, though. It also features an artisan roll, smoked applewood bacon, carmelized grilled onions, leaf lettuce and Angus seasoning.
Just what does that cosmopolitan burger description really get us, though? Time to go under the bun with FoodFacts.com as we investigate what's really in this new McDonald's creation.
Let's start with the nutrition facts:
Calories: 720
Fat: 40 g
Saturated Fat: 15 g
Sodium: 1470 mg
Sugar: 14 g
Let's just say that, believe it or not, the Big Mac is actually a better nutritional choice than the Bacon Clubhouse Burger. Obviously that's not saying much. This burger contains 180 additional calories, 11 extra grams of fat, 5 more grams of saturated fat, 430 mg of additional sodium and 5 more grams of sugar than the Big Mac. Not exactly a healthy meal — and we didn't even add fries to it yet!
What about the ingredients? We're sure you can guess, but here they are:
QUARTER POUND 100% BEEF PATTY Ingredients: 100% Pure USDA Inspected Beef; No Fillers, No Extenders. Prepared With Grill Seasoning (Salt, Black Pepper). *Based On The Weight Before Cooking 4 Oz. (113.4g) ARTISAN ROLL Ingredients: Wheat Flour or Enriched Flour (Wheat Flour or Bleached Wheat Flour, Niacin, Iron, Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid), Malted Barley Flour, Water, Sugar, Yeast, Palm Oil, Wheat Gluten, Dextrose, Salt, Contains 2% or less: Natural Flavors (Plant Source), Corn Flour, Soybean Oil, Calcium Sulfate, Mono- and Diglycerides, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate, Monocalcium Phosphate, Ascorbic Acid, Enzymes, Calcium Propionate (Preservative), Vegetable Proteins (Pea, Potato, Rice), Sunflower Oil, Turmeric, Paprika, Corn Starch, Wheat Starch, Acetic Acid. TOMATO SLICE THICK CUT APPLEWOOD SMOKED BACON Ingredients: Pork Bellies Cured with Water, Salt, Sugar, Natural Smoke Flavor (Plant Source), Sodium Phosphate, Sodium Erythorbate, Sodium Nitrite. CARAMELIZED GRILLED ONIONS Ingredients: Slivered Onions Prepared in Onion Reduction Sauce (Palm, Soybean and/or Cottonseed Oil, Salt, Sugar, Caramelized Sugar, Onion Powder, Maltodextrin, Natural Flavors [Plant Source], Spice). BIG MAC SAUCE Ingredients: Soybean Oil, Pickle Relish (Diced Pickles, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Sugar, Vinegar, Corn Syrup, Salt, Calcium Chloride, Xanthan Gum, Potassium Sorbate [Preservative], Spice Extractives, Polysorbate 80), Distilled Vinegar, Water, Egg Yolks, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Onion Powder, Mustard Seed, Salt, Spices, Propylene Glycol Alginate, Sodium Benzoate (Preservative), Mustard Bran, Sugar, Garlic Powder, Vegetable Protein (Hydrolyzed Corn, Soy and Wheat), Caramel Color, Extractives of Paprika, Soy Lecithin, Turmeric (Color), Calcium Disodium EDTA (Protect Flavor). PASTEURIZED PROCESS WHITE CHEDDAR CHEESE Ingredients: Milk, Water, Cheese Culture, Cream, Sodium Citrate, Contains 2% or less of: Salt, Citric Acid, Sorbic Acid (Preservative), May Contain One or More of: Sodium Phosphate, Sodium Pyrophosphate, Sodium Hexametaphosphate, Enzymes, Acetic Acid, Soy Lecithin (Added for Slice Separation). LEAF LETTUCE ANGUS SEASONING Ingredients: Salt, Sugar, Onion Powder, Natural (Animal and Plant Sources) and Artificial Flavors, Spice, Maltodextrin, Autolyzed Yeast Extract, Dried Beef Broth, Dextrose, Garlic Powder, Worcestershire Sauce Powder (Distilled Vinegar, Molasses, Corn Syrup, Salt, Caramel Color, Garlic Powder, Sugar, Spices, Tamarind, Natural Flavor [Fruit Source]), Spice Extractives, Beef Fat, Caramel Color, Annatto and Turmeric (Color).
We counted. That's about 17 ingredients we don't want to eat all in one burger. Please make sure you read the ingredients in the Big Mac sauce carefully. This is the sauce consumers are making such a big fuss over. They're happy it's making an appearance on another burger. We're not.
The McDonald's Bacon Clubhouse Burger isn't deserving of the buzz surrounding its introduction. It's just another fast food monstrosity with too many calories, too much fat, too much sodium and too many bad ingredients.

QuickTime Player X
Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard includes a new QuickTime Player
that lets you playback your media using an uncluttered interface with controls that fade out when they're not needed. It also offers easy media sharing, flexible recording capabilities, and makes it simple to trim your media files to the perfect length.
Required OS: 10.6
Tags: record , mp3 , music , media , quicktime , video , audio , player
8 Opinions
You can add a SIMBL Plugin that alters Quicktime Player X to automatically start playing when entering full screen.
It also automatically resigns full screen when the movie has finished playing.
See: http://github.com/sjaek/QTXAutoPlayFullscreen
I agree, but I couldn't list it as "QuickTime Player" on iusethis.com, because they redirect from QuickTime Player to QuickTime Player 7. Maybe that made sense at one time, when most Mac users had QTP7 as their default player. But now most Mac users are on Snow Leopard, so their default player is QTP10. I contacted iusethis to ask them to drop the redirect, or change it to redirect to QTP10. No reply yet.
Another user said I should have listed the new player as QuickTime Player X instead of QuickTime Player 10. They have a point; Apple refers to the new QuickTime technology as QuickTime X; the new QuickTime Player is part of QuickTime X; by googling I found that many more people refer to the new player as QuickTime Player X than as QuickTime 10. So I made a new listing for QuickTime Player X and asked iusethis to redirect QTP10 to QTPX. No reply yet. Usually they reply quickly.
Apple lists it as "QuickTime Player" in the app bundle. iusethis.com should do the same.
@ el_cravito:
Did some google research. There are many more articles referring to the new QTP as "QuickTime Player X" than as "QuickTime Player 10".
So I made a listing for
QuickTime Player X
and asked iusethis to merge QTP10 into the QTPX listing.
@ el_cravito:
Reading your comment, so I went back to the Apple.com pages on QuickTime. QuickTime X is a new software framework. Apple's new player based on the QuickTime X framework, the player that ships with Snow Leopard, they refer to as QuickTime Player. They never use the name QuickTime Player X. "About QuickTime Player" says it's version 10.0
@ bodytechbician:
Yes, you're right.
But maybe you could have added it under "QuickTime Player X" ("X", not "10").
The name "QuickTime Player X" seems to be available here in I Use This.
The listing under "QuickTime X" is not a listing for QuickTime Player, it's for a 3rd party app, a preference pane for QuickTime Player. That listing probably should have been titled "QuickTime X Pref", which is what the developer calls it on their site.
When you hover the mouse over the dock icon, the name that appears is QuickTime Player. When you open the app, the name that appears in the menu bar is QuickTime Player. When you click on the menu item for About QuickTime Player, the name that appears in the description written by Apple is QuickTime Player. The correct name of this Apple app seems to be QuickTime Player (although Apple sometimes refers to it as QuickTime Player X on their site). However, I could not title this listing as just QuickTime Player, because iusethis is currently set up so that if you go to http://osx.iusethis.com/app/quicktimeplayer it redirects to the listing for QuickTime Player 7. I've contacted iusethis about this.
It's already listed under "QuickTime X" (which is the correct name of the application).

The Baltimore native joined the U.S. Marines out of high school and spent four years as an aviation electrician working on F18s and serving during Operation Desert Storm.
He returned home to Baltimore unsure what he would do next. The idea of becoming a lawyer or psychologist appealed to him but the years of school seemed daunting. His father was a hairdresser and although his first instinct was "no way," he took up his father's trade.
"It ended up being a lot of fun, and I was actually really good at it," he recalls, noting he worked as a hair stylist for 12 years and even owned his own salon.
And then the unthinkable happened. His parents died. Both of them.
His mother was diagnosed with cancer on Dec. 1, 1996. She died that same month on Dec. 31. His father had a lung transplant that same year. He had pulmonary fibrosis. Despite the transplant, he died on Aug. 31, 1997 – exactly eight months after his spouse.
An only child, Dr. Tubens found himself at a crossroads and asking the question "Am I happy with the direction of my life?"
"I just didn't feel I was making a contribution to other people in a way I was capable of," he said.
After years of avoiding school, "I decided maybe I wanted to be a surgeon."
At age 31, he hired a tutor to get through his college entrance exams. "I had no college experience whatsoever."
He attended Towson University in his native Baltimore, graduating magna cum laude in just three years while still working full-time at his salon. He was accepted to and attended Ross University School of Medicine in Dominica in the West Indies and New Jersey.
Obstetrics and gynecology wasn't his first choice when it came to medicine – until he assisted with a birth from beginning to end. "It was from that moment that I realized what an honor and a privilege it is to be involved in this process, and that that was what I wanted to do."
Dr. Tubens went on to complete his obstetrics and gynecology residency at Bayfront Medical Center in St. Petersburg, Fla., working exclusively on high risk pregnancies and performing gynecologic surgeries. "I love gynecologic surgery, specifically laparoscopic procedures," he says.
His work at Bayfront earned him recognitions for excellence in laparoscopic surgery, excellence in reproductive endocrinology and as outstanding resident teacher of the year.
When it came time to look for a job, Dr. Tubens looked for a warm and friendly community where he and his wife could settle with their two huskies.
He has found that in Vermont and at Gifford.
"People are so welcoming. They smile. That's very attractive," said Dr. Tubens. "We hope we can spend the rest of our lives here."
He and his wife, physician assistant Susan Post-Tubens, have bought a home in Bethel.
They have three grown children and in their free-time enjoy golf, skiing, snowboarding, hiking, travel and reading.
For the region, Dr. Tubens, a physician with a calming demeanor who collaborates with patients to improve quality of life, is a new resource for more complicated pregnancies and surgery. His clinical interests include high-risk pregnancies, office gynecologic procedures as well as gynecologic surgery, especially laparoscopic surgery.
His greatest priority is patient safety and care, notes the physician who is a member of both the American College of Physicians and the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists. "The most important thing is the patient. That is the number one priority."
Dr. Tubens is working full-time at Gifford Ob/Gyn & Midwifery in Randolph. Call him at (802) 728-2401.

USA, 1977, 137 Minute Running Time
Genre/Subjects: Classic, Family Friendly, Sci-FiLanguage: English
Our inaugural Jack Gilford Award for Comedy recipient, Bob Balaban, will do a Q&A after this special anniversary screening!
Steven Spielberg followed Jaws (1975), his first major box-office success, with this epic science fiction adventure about a disparate group of people who attempt to contact alien intelligence. Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) is an electrical lineman who, while out on emergency repairs, witnesses an unidentified flying object, and even has a "sunburn" from its bright lights to prove it. Neary's wife and children are at first skeptical, then concerned, and eventually fearful, as Roy refuses to accept a "logical" explanation for what he saw and is prepared to give up his job, his home, and his family to pursue the "truth" about UFOs. Neary's obsession eventually puts him in contact with others who've had close encounters with alien spacecraft, including a single mother whose son disappeared during her UFO experience, and a French researcher (famed director Francois Truffaut) who believes that we can use a musical language to communicate with alien visitors. His theory is put to the test when a band of government researchers and underground UFO enthusiasts (including Neary) join for an exchange with alien visitors near Devil's Tower, Wyoming.

Kicking off the celebration of Breckenridge opening week, the "Find Ullr," promotion has the infamous snow god popping up in various Denver landmarks starting Saturday.
Clues about Ullr's location will be posted daily on Breckenridge Ski Resort's Facebook page. The promotion extends through Nov. 8.
The first person to find him will secure a lift ticket opening day and ride first chair with Ullr, according to Alysa Hetze, spokeswoman for the resort.
"We chose Denver as the place where Ullr is going to be to drum up the excitement for opening day," Hetze said. "Anyone can participate but they have to be in Denver to track him down. This is a great way to encourage people to drive up from the Front Range for opening day."
According to Breckenridge officials, Ullr is logically a Summit County local and the Norse god of snow and northern lands.
"Ullr loved the cold as well as traversing the county on his skis or skates," according to the Breckenridge town website. "One of the Norseman's favorite travels would lead him to Breckenridge where he would bless the town's mountains with some of the world's finest snow."
In its 50th year, starting one year after Breckenridge Ski Resort's first season, Ullr Fest debuts Jan. 6-12.
"It's a wacky winter festival that's taken place since 1963 by the Peak 8 ski school," Hetze said. "You can expect a lot of people to be dressed up in Viking gear and hoping for snow."
The festival, designed to be a cabin-fever-reliever, features a series of competitions called the Ullympic Games ending with Ullr enthusiasts decking out for the Ullr Parade.
During the annual fest in Breck, horned Viking hats adorned the heads of skiers and snowboarders, Ullympic competitors flung frying pans for prizes, and more than 12,000 Ullr enthusiasts filled the streets for the Ullr Parade last year, according to Hetze.
"The finding Ullr promotion will really get people excited for the 50th anniversary of the festival," Hetze said. "Ullr is a great piece of folk lore that appeals to our culture in Breckenridge and Summit County."

Thunder media relations director and radio play-by-play announcer Mike Benton has accepted a similar position with the Alaska Aces, one of Stockton's rivals in the ECHL.
"It was truly a pleasure working with Mike," Thunder owner Brad Rowbotham said in a statement. "His dream has always been to continue development of his skill set which includes numerous broadcast roles. I wish him well with this new opportunity."
Benton, 32, who had served the organization since its inception, called 648 regular season and playoff games for the Thunder, spanning its first ECHL game at Fresno in 2005 to its first run to the Kelly Cup Finals in 2013.
He was selected by the ECHL to call the league's All-Star Game radio broadcasts in 2007, 2008 and 2010, and earned the ECHL Media Relations Award of Excellence in 2009 as determined in voting by members of the media, league media relations directors and broadcasters.
Said Benton, "Extremely mixed emotions are at the forefront of this new opportunistic season of life because this area and each game night at Stockton Arena will always have a special place in my heart."

THE BAD: In a time when the band had just 'figured out' SOAM, you'd think it'd have gotten better treatment here, but this version is just so-so compared to the monsters that would come later in the tour.
ETC: This show features the first version of Ya Mar with Mike scatting reggae-style. If you like the jam out of Demand on Hoist - take a listen to 7:20 on this SOAM - hear anything familiar? The band was energized in this show for sure, as there is lots of screeching and screaming throughout the show. Poor Heart, Ya Mar, and My Sweet One all have lots of screaming! If you're a fan of guests, listen to the Encore with Page's Dad in his first appearance with the band.
BOTTOM LINE: Southern leg adds extra spark to the bluegrass numbers, but average rest of show. 3.5/5

1917 — Catcher Hank Gowdy of the Braves became the first major league player to enter military service in World War I.
1939 — The Brooklyn Dodgers and the Boston Braves played a 23-inning, 2-2 tie. Whit Wyatt pitched the first 16 innings for the Dodgers. Both clubs played a 26-inning tie in 1920 at the same Braves Field.
1958 — Billy Pierce of the Chicago White Sox retired 26 straight Washington batters before pinch-hitter Ed Fitzgerald hit a double just inside the right-field line for the only hit. Pierce then struck out Albie Pearson on three pitches and beat the Senators 3-0.
1973 — David Clyde, a $125,000, 18-year-old bonus baby with the Rangers, pitched five innings, struck out eight and allowed one hit in his first major league start. Texas beat the Minnesota Twins 4-3 before 35,698 fans — the Rangers' first home sellout at Arlington Stadium.
1980 — The Los Angeles Dodgers' Jerry Reuss pitched a no-hitter against the San Francisco Giants in an 8-0 victory at Candlestick Park. The only player to reach base was Jack Clark in the first inning on a throwing error by shortstop Bill Russell.
1986 — San Francisco rookie Robby Thompson set a major league record when he was caught stealing four times in the Giants' 7-6, 12-inning victory over the Cincinnati Reds. Catcher Bo Diaz threw out Thompson in the fourth, sixth, ninth and 11th innings.
1993 — Anthony Young of the New York Mets set a major league record by losing his 24th straight decision, 5-3 to the St. Louis Cardinals.
1999 — Ken Griffey Jr. hit his 27th homer and robbed Juan Gonzalez of a three-run shot with a spectacular over-the-fence catch as the Seattle Mariners beat the Texas Rangers 5-2 in the final game at the Kingdome.
2003 — Boston set a major league record by scoring 10 runs before the first out. The 50-minute, 91-pitch first inning came during a 25-8 victory over Florida. The Red Sox also tied an AL record with 14 first-inning runs. Johnny Damon matched a major league mark with three hits in an inning.
2007 — Ryan Howard hit his 100th career homer in his 325th game, becoming the fastest player to reach that total. Howard's three-run shot off Cincinnati's Aaron Harang gave the Phillies a 3-0 lead in the fifth inning. The 505-foot drive was the longest in the four-year history of Citizens Bank Park.
2008 — Carlos Delgado of the New York Mets homered twice, including a grand slam, and set a franchise record with nine RBIs in a 15-6 rout of the Yankees at Yankee Stadium in the opener of the teams' two-ballpark doubleheader. The Yankees beat the Mets 9-0 at Shea Stadium in the night game.
2009 — A.J. Burnett pitched a one-hitter to give the New York Yankees a 5-0 win over the New York Mets. Alex Cora got the Mets' only hit, lining a clean single to center to lead off the sixth. He had been 0 for 21 with eight strikeouts against Burnett.
2010 — Jamie Moyer surrendered his record-breaking 506th home run but was sharp otherwise, and the Philadelphia Phillies took advantage of Toronto's troubles to beat the Blue Jays 11-2. Moyer only mistake was a two-run homer by Vernon Wells in the third inning. Moyer passed former Phillies Hall of Famer Robin Roberts for the most homers allowed in a career.

About the Book
Drawingupon new research and scholarship, historian Paul Lockhart, author of thecritically acclaimed Revolutionary War biography The Drillmaster of ValleyForge, offers a penetrating reassessment of the first major engagement ofthe American Revolution. In the tradition of David McCullough's 1776,Lockhart illuminates the Battle of Bunker Hill as a crucial event in thecreation of an American identity, dexterously interweaving the story of thispivotal pitched battle with two other momentous narratives: the creation ofAmerica's first army, and the rise of the man who led it, George Washington.
Paul Lockhart combines military and political history to offer a major reassessment of one of the most famous battles in American history.
One hot June afternoon in 1775, on the gentle slopes of a hill near Boston, Massachusetts, a small band of ordinary Americans—frightened but fiercely determined—dared to stand up to a superior British force. The clash would be immortalized as the Battle of Bunker Hill: the first real engagement of the American Revolution and one of the most famous battles in our history.But Bunker Hill was not the battle that we have been taught to believe it was.
Revisiting old evidence and drawing on new research, historian Paul Lockhart, author of The Drillmaster of Valley Forge, shows that Bunker Hill was a clumsy engagement pitting one inexperienced army against another. Lockhart tells the rest of the story, too: how a mob of armed civilians became America's first army; how George Washington set aside his comfortable patrician life to take command of the veterans of Bunker Hill; and how the forgotten heroes of 1775—though overshadowed by themore famous Founding Fathers—kept the notion of American liberty alive, and thus made independence possible.

With the news this morning that support for Texas secession has grown so rapidly in the last few weeks that members of the Texas Nationalist Movement have gone and founded their very own political action committee, the question that should probably be asked at some point is: Could Texas actually secede if it wanted to?
The short answer is no. The long answer is noooooooooooo. The narrated infographic answer is in the video above.

DENVER -- Charles Woodson and Peyton Manning were in the New York City spotlight together for the first time on Dec. 13, 1997, at the Downtown Athletic Club and shared a green room four months later at Madison Square Garden, home of the NFL draft.
Woodson won the Heisman Trophy, but Manning was the No. 1 pick of the draft by the Indianapolis Colts. The San Diego Chargers and Arizona Cardinals were up next and are forever regretting their decisions to take quarterback Ryan Leaf and defensive end Andre Wadsworth with the Raiders taking Woodson at No. 4.
The average price of a gallon of gas was $1.03, and current Raiders center Stefen Wisniewski was 9 years old.
"It's amazing they're not only still playing the game, but that they're both still great," Wisniewski said.
Woodson and Manning meet again Monday night when the Raiders visit the Denver Broncos at Sports Authority Field, only the fifth time two of the most respected and decorated players in the sport will have shared the field in a regular-season game.
In terms of the scoreboard, Woodson was 2-1 against Manning as a Raider and 1-0 as a Packer, although he had no interceptions or forced turnovers in any of the games.
ESPN analyst Jon Gruden, a first-time head coach in 1998 when Woodson was a rookie with Gruden's Raiders and Manning with the Colts, called it an "honor" to be associated with meeting No. 5.
"You can't find two more distinguished careers," Gruden said.
They were almost teammates this season, with Woodson visiting the Broncos, which included a conversation with Manning. When Denver's contract offer didn't measure up, Woodson flew to Oakland for a hero's welcome and a one-year deal he deemed satisfactory.
"You can't blame us for trying," Denver coach John Fox said on a conference call. "When you're a free agent, it's all business. If you ask Charles, I'm sure the allure of coming back to the team that drafted him was exciting."
Manning, 37, has nine touchdown passes and no interceptions in two games, building on a comeback season during which he led the Broncos to a division title after he parted amicably with the Colts following neck surgery.
"He's the best of the best, he's seen everything and he probably watches more film than anybody else," Woodson said. "He's going to know what to look for when he walks up to the line."
Woodson, 36, saved a touchdown in last week's 19-9 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars by leaping over a blocker to stop Maurice Jones-Drew. He was released by the Green Bay Packers, who balked at paying a $9 million salary.
"Sixteen years as a defensive back in this league, that alone is special," Manning said by conference call. "You take how well Charles has played corner, he's excellent in the nickel, he's played some safety. It shows his versatility. What happens to most guys is they lose a step, but he hasn't done that at all."
The effect of bringing in a probable first-ballot Hall of Fame player has paid dividends for both the Raiders and Broncos.
Cornerback Tracy Porter was in Denver last season when Manning arrived and joined the Raiders this offseason when Woodson signed with the team that drafted him after seven seasons with the Packers.
"They both have championships, they both put up numbers, their track record speaks for itself," Porter said. "When one of those guys walks into a room, it speaks volumes. Everyone wants to hear what they have to say. Everyone looks at them as a leader because they've been in the league so long. They know what to say, they know what to do, they know their way around the league. They know how to lead a team."
Manning's style is to seize control of the offense, with everything running through him. If he's not satisfied in practice, or if the defense gets the better of the offense, the play is run again on Manning's say-so, Porter said.
"He's even more of a competitor in practice because you can start over," Porter said.
Woodson is more inclined to let players come to him for advice, and it's happened so often that he probably needs a corner office instead of a locker.
"He exudes that swagger he has and all his teammates feel it," Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie said. "Hopefully they can absorb something from it and take a little piece."
While Manning's career took off immediately, Woodson went from good in Oakland to great in Green Bay in large part because of his supporting cast.
"Peyton was in the same system for almost his entire career, and when he went to Denver you still see some of the same concepts he ran in 2000 and 2001," Gruden said. "Charles played for different head coaches and different coordinators.
"When he was playing outside at corner, you can say, 'I'm going to throw away from that guy.' But when he went to Green Bay, (defensive coordinator) Dom Capers put him in different positions so he could affect every single play, and he became a Hall of Famer."
Scouting in the NFL is a hit-and-miss profession, but McKenzie, just getting underway in the Green Bay personnel department in 1998, said Woodson and Manning were slam dunks.
"With those two, you knew. They weren't good players, they were great players -- graded as perennial Pro Bowl guys," McKenzie said. "Scouting those two guys was easy. It was really easy."

Nice Buried Alive to open up. Followed by a good Oh Kee Pa>Suzy. Page is on fire already! Fee is ok. The megaphone gets the feedback going so Trey and the band back off to make it really dynamic. Right into a sweet Maze. Page, again, rips it up. Reba is good. I expected a little rust but, nope. Sparkle is pretty standard. Horn is good tonight. No real problems. ATR is great. Very tight and fast. Gin is a nice bust out, though unfinished. I feel like I haven't heard this one in a while. This might be the first Gin jam like this I've heard too. It abruptly gets cut off leading me to think equipment problem or broken string. So into a nice Adeline we go. The crowd does pretty well with the shushing until Trey actually uses the megaphone to say "shut the F up!" leading to laughter. Trey then explains the Big Ball Jam. Then a great Antelope closer complete with Gin teases like Trey wants to finish it. Solid first set.
They blow the opening and ending of Axilla but, it's new. Trey admits the end was his fault. Fishman thought he lost his mind. My Friend is still a little tentative in the intro but the song itself is great. My Sweet One is good. Page, again, rips it! Tweezer brings the funk hard tonight complete with Ball Jam too. Very dynamic showing the direction they are going with their music. Tela is beautiful. I expected more rusty spots in this one. YEM on the other hand has Trey struggling in the begining. The vocal jam is awesome. And then we have another first timer for Fishman with the debut of Faht in lieu of the usual cover song with vacuum. Done with the backing track off the Nectar album. Golgi has some rusty spots from Mike and then an inexplicable exchange between Trey and Fish at the end where again the megaphone comes out and Trey says to forget it until they finish the song. Not sure what the deal was there. Oh well, an ending is an ending. Not too bad of a set.
Great encores. Page absolutely rips Bold as Love! And Trey does too. Way better than the first bust out a few shows ago. Well done. Again the crowd responds well to the shushing and gets the Carolina which was teased earlier before Adeline. Tweeprise is fitting and rocking. Great end to a fine show.
They are really turning up the heat in their playing four days in. Just a few rough spots tonight.

Omri Elisha, Moral Ambition: Mobilization and Social Outreach in Evangelical Megachurches, (2011)
In his ethnography of two megachurches in Knoxville, Elisha argues that socially engaged evangelicals navigate between many competing demands. In a tradition often associated with individualism, this minority seeks to call others "out of their comfort zone" and thereby change the world for Christ. While cultivating personal religious virtues, they make moral demands on other Christians and society at large. As social reformers, the evangelical institutions from which they emerge both inspire and inhibit them, support them and view them suspiciously. They are inheritors of the complex legacies of revivalism, overseas missions, Christian temperance, and fundamentalism. Elisha's conservative evangelical reformers are intensely self-critical members of the middle class who genuinely want to make a difference in the lives of the poor, but who generally don't see capitalism as a problem in itself—and who see the poor as fundamentally lacking. Elisha uses the term "moral ambitions" to unpack this "particular style of religious subjectivity, one that manifests in moments of concerted action and mobilization and yet reflects a range of personal desires, theological and cultural norms, historical circumstances, and social opportunities" (18). Elisha talks to ambitious people: reformers with a new vision for the church, activists who want to bring about meaningful change. But these folks display moral ambition: their ambitions are fundamentally social, being focused on others and produced by particular institutions.
Elisha's book offers several important reminders to scholars of evangelicalism. First, he reminds us that conservative evangelicals care about more than just language and texts—much of their religious activity consists of doing, not saying or reading. Because the concept of the Word is so important for evangelical theology, we scholars tend to look to language/semiotics as the key to understanding evangelicalism. Elisha engages words surprisingly rarely. Second, Elisha offers a refreshing emphasis on evangelical sociality. Anthropologists probably deal better in general with relationships than historians do, but Elisha proves especially adept at drawing out the institutional and interpersonal side of evangelicalism. In Elisha's telling, evangelicalism emerges through social structures like class, institutional structures of financial support, small groups of friends, and shared discourses. Personal salvation, silent prayer, and private reading play their parts, but they're bit players in Elisha's ethnography. Third, Elisha's book reminds us that serious books can also be funny. As a Jewish anthropologist from New York, Elisha could never really shake his outsider status among the evangelicals of Knoxville. But that didn't stop them from putting him to good use. I actually laughed out loud reading the epilogue, when Elisha finds himself thrust into the role of chaperone for a youth mission trip: "After nearly a year of participant observation… I was used to performing unfamiliar roles. But I honestly never imagined I would one day be the driver of a big church van, shuttling pubescent soldiers of Christ through the streets of DC on their mission to do God's work" (213-214). Though Elisha's subtle turns of phrase exaggerate the humor of an awkward situation, his disquiet also reveals how his subjects' moral ambitions work. The mission trip pulled the kids out of their "comfort zones"; in a completely different way, Elisha got pulled out of his. Being thrust into the role of a socially engaged evangelical leader, Elisha could get down to the business of seeing the world change.

Photo Gallery: Aaron Sandusky's legal battle
Special section: Medical Marijuana
LOS ANGELES - A former medical marijuana dispensary owner on Monday was sentenced to 10 years in prison for operating three facilities in the Inland Empire.
Aaron Sandusky, one of only a handful of defendants to fight U.S. prosecutors, was convicted in October on federal charges of distributing marijuana.
Sandusky faced as much as life in prison, but U.S. District Court Judge Percy Anderson gave him the minimum sentence possible under federal guidelines.
"In this case, as the defendant was warned, the court's hands are tied," Anderson said. "Whether you agree with the defendant's position or not."
Sandusky was charged with conspiring to manufacture and possess marijuana with intent to distribute it, conspiring to operate a drug-involved premises and and one count of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute it.
His case is one of four in the United States where federal prosecutors filed charges against individuals associated with medical marijuana dispensaries in states where medical marijuana is legal. These cases have garnered national attention, in part, because marijuana advocates have criticized the federal government for disregarding state laws allowing the possession and sale of marijuana for medicinal use.
Sandusky, 42, of Rancho Cucamonga, previously worked in the mortgage industry before opening dispensaries in Upland, Colton and Moreno Valley.
In his sentencing memo, Anderson noted that Sandusky was running an illegal marijuana operation under cover of California's medical marijuana laws.
Sandusky "used G3 as a means to replace the vast income he lost from the collapse of his real estate business," Anderson wrote. "Defendant built a veneer of legitimacy around his criminal enterprise using his customers' good-faith search for pain relief.
"There is absolutely no altruistic component to defendant's continued and sustained criminality."
California voters approved Proposition 215 in 1996, allowing medical marijuana in the state, while state Senate Bill 420, which details the amount of marijuana a person can possess for medical purposes, prevents cities and counties from banning marijuana dispensaries.
But federal law says marijuana - medical or otherwise - is illegal.
"He gave him the mandatory minimum of 10," Sandusky's attorney Roger Diamond said. "I tried to get the judge to go below the minimum by arguing the sentence would be unconstitutional. That's all."
Rare case
Only three similar cases have been tried in recent years - Charles C. Lynch of Arroyo Grande, a former Morro Bay medical marijuana dispensary owner, Michigan father and son Gerald and Jeremy Duval, and Christopher Williams of Montana.
Lynch, a former Morro Bay medical marijuana dispensary owner, faced up to 20 years for selling more than $2.1 million in marijuana during a year's time. He was sentenced to a reduced term of a year and a day in prison in June 2009.
The Duvals were convicted of growing marijuana in greenhouses, and while they claimed it was for medicinal purposes, the judge at sentencing found their operation suggested otherwise.
In Montana, where medical marijuana is also legal, federal prosecutors successfully charged Christopher Williams, who was convicted in September of eight counts of conspiring to grow and distribute marijuana, possession with intent to distribute and possession of a firearm during a drug-trafficking offense.
Williams has settled with prosecutors in his criminal proceedings. Six of the charges will be dismissed in exchange for withdrawing his pending motions for acquittal and a new trial. He will face five years to life in prison.
Shouts and sobs in court
Sandusky's hands and feet were shackled Monday in the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building and U.S. Courthouse. He was clad in a white prison suit and green jacket.
"I want to apologize to those with me and their families who have been victimized by the federal government who has not recognized the voters of this state," Sandusky said in court.
"I want to apologize to the families who are suffering and who have to go through this."
The sentencing was greeted with sobs from attendees.
"There are no winners here. Not the state, not the federal government, not the patients who need medical marijuana," Sandusky said in court.
Despite being shackled, Sandusky was able to give two thumbs up as he left the courtroom. He showed no emotion throughout the appearance.
As Sandusky walked out of court, someone in the gallery yelled, "We love you, Aaron."
Sandusky turns 43 today.
"It's not going to be a real happy birthday," former G3 Holistic patient Christopher Kenner said.
"I hate to think this is the last time I'll see him."
Government lawyers said Monday that four additional charges that Sandusky was facing will be dismissed.
Government attorneys had no comment at the courthouse.
Anderson recommended that Sandusky serve his time in Victorville federal prison.
Sandusky will also face five years of supervised released, but will not be fined.
Sandusky has been battling the city of Upland since the city filed an injunction to close him down in September 2010. The case is waiting to be heard by the state Supreme Court who will decide whether Upland was lawful in banning cooperatives through their zoning codes.

When the H1N1 or Swine Flu vaccine arrives in mid-October, East Lansing High School will be on the front lines of the distribution. East Lansing Public Schools Director of Human Resources Kelley Peatross says the school is a designated site to distribute the vaccine for their students and then the public.
Ingham County Health Officials say right now, they're planning to vaccinate at schools the first week in November. Christine Hendrickson, Health Educator-Emergency Preparedness, says, "We're finalizing our plan, thus far, what we're looking to do is to go out to different parts of the counties to various schools and hold mass immunization clinics at those schools."
Hendrickson says,, "We're not looking to go to every school...For example, if we were to go to Williamston, maybe we would grab the Williamston schools and maybe because of our proximity to Webberville that we also pick up some of the Webberville schools as well...we're still working that out."
The county says it's still working out the exact dates and locations where the vaccine will be distributed at the schools. Health officials say they will know more in the coming days and weeks. Hendrickson says, "We're finalizing with the schools and finalizing with the dates we would like to come."
Not all counties plan to vaccinate at the schools. In Clinton County, Mid-Michigan District Health Department Health Officer Kim Singh says they are planning a 12-hour countywide clinic in Saint Johns. In Eaton County, Barry-Eaton District Health Department Medical Director Robert Schirmer says they are encouraging everyone to see their health care provider for their shots first. They are also planning for mass clinics at their seasonal flu clinic locations. He says those will be at the same clinics where people get flu shots every year. That includes a church outside of Charlotte.
Jackson County Health Department Director of Personal and Prevention Health Services Mary Ricciardello says their goal is to have a school-based community clinic in each district. She says the county will also hold Swine Flu H1N1vaccine clinics at the same places where they give out the seasonal flu vaccine every year.
James McCurtis, a spokesperson for the Department of Community Health says, "We're leaving a lot of those plans up to the local health departments...where they want us to send their amount to...the different doctor's offices"
Meanwhile Peatross says on vaccination day, the East Lansing High School plans to vaccinate high school students in the morning, middle school students in the afternoon after they are brought in by bus, and elementary students in the evening. She says the public will then be welcome.

I use both VersionTracker Pro and AppFresh. All those applications that is not on iusethis are handled by VersionTracker, and there are quite many applications that VersionTracker do not update. It seems you need both to cover most of the applications...
maybe it beats appfresh, but there's not way I'm buying it for $50. Besides, this is iusethis!

Body Cleansing.
The Master Cleanser program is built around the idea
of a therapeutic fast. A lemonade-type drink and
water are all that are consumed daily for a minimum of
5 days to a maximum of 40 days. The lemonade drink is
freshly made each day as follows:
· 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice (with pulp!),
usually that's like a half a lemon.
· 2 Tbs. Grade B or C Maple Syrup -- Grade A is too
clarified, not enough minerals.
· 1/10th to 1/4th tsp. cayenne pepper -- burns
· 10 oz of water (luke warm is best)
Drink as many glasses per day as you desire but always
drink a minimum of at least three glasses. Aim for
six. And remember, you're drinking for tomorrow. You
might have a lot of energy on not a lot of juice, but
then you wake up the next morning and you won't be
able to get out of bed! Eat NO FOOD on the Master
Cleanser program.
You may drink as much water as you want, and any pure
teas. Peppermint is the best, since your mouth gets
pretty yucky, but green is good too. But NO sugar,
milk or honey in your tea. Also, if the lemon drink
gets tiresome, feel free to add some tea (in place of
some of the water). It helps a lot. Oh! Try to drink a
"bowel moving" tea (usually made with senna) every
night to help in the morning.
Starting on the morning of the second day, you should
do the salt water cleanse. And that is:
* 2 teaspoons of UNiodized salt (preferrably sea
* 1 quart of luke warm to hot-ish water.
Drink the salt all at once, if you can. It's best to
get a quart bottle and just keep tanking it back. The
salt water doesn't get absorbed into your body, but
rather just zooms through your intestines picking up
all the bad junk, and comes out your colon. Give
yourself about 2 hours between drinking the salt water
and when you can leave the vicinity of a bathroom.
And it's always better to err on the side of more salt
in the mix than less. I once used too little, and
nothing ever came out. Ick! So if it's not working so
well, add more salt.
The salt cleanse is important to do EVERYDAY. I used
to do it every other day, and it just sucked. You gots
to do it everyday. It helps remove the waste as it is
being shed from the colon wall and the waste that is
being removed by the liver. Otherwise, the waste will
stay in the bowels leading to tiredness and other
Finally when you are ready to go off the cleanse you
spend one day drinking glasses of orange juice along
with the lemon drink. The next day, for breakfast eat
a clear broth soup and see if you can handle it. If
you can, you are free to eat with you want -- but be
careful reintroducing really rich foods right away.
And my policy with performing on the cleanse is I
allow myself some pulpy orange juice, for the added
sugar. But other than that, really try to stick to
just the lemon drink. The cleanse will go much better
if you only drink that. Believe me.
In case your wondering what the hell this cleanse
actually does, according to the book it:
* Dissolve and eliminates toxins and congestion
that have formed in any part of the body
* Cleanses the kidneys and the digestive system
* Purifies the glands and cells
* Eliminates all unusable waste and hardened
material in the joints and muscles
* Builds a healthy blood stream
* Relieves pressure and irritation in the nerves,
arteries and blood vessels

Did you see a noticable change in your metal and physical states after doing this? It seems like a lot of mumbo jumbo. Ive read a couple other things like this and people seem to really like doing it. I think I would do it for the challenge rather than the benifits.

material in the joints and muscles

I would do it if I was motivated to even excercise or go to the gym or start lifting weights again but I don't think there's any real point if I'm gonna eat unhealthy foods all day long and lie on my ass.

I want to...I have for awhile....but I have to work everyday and be active.
Will I turn into a zombie if I do this?
Will I be overcome with hunger to the point that it consumes me?
Will I pass out?
Can I still drink beer?

colon cleansing sage? i'm glad you're concerned with the healthy flow of our inner workings, but isn't that a bit too personal?
did anyone else immediately think of the nutty professor (the first one with eddie murphy) and the klumps discussion about the subject?

i'll give it a go
i have been wanting to
get an enema
go on a vision quest
i have been told that one type of vision quest would be appropriate for me in my current situation. a friend suggested i travel into the woods for three days without eating and only sleeping when it was unfightable. i am supposed to hike the first one, sit in one place on the second, and hike back on the third. supposedly i will feel like hell on the walk out, feeling hungry, scared, and depressed. the end of the second day will bring clarity and euphoria at times and hallucination and confusion at others. the third i will be highly energized, cleansed and feeling like i never felt before. your awareness of your surroundings and internal workings will be heightened. my other friend who took the advice and actually went through with it told me that he could "breath as if he never sucked down an ounce of dirt or smoke in his life." soon after this experience he decided to move to montana, a totally different world than the suburbs of philadelphia he has known all his life. he now works making rustic furniture and lives in a cabin he built by himself. he goes to work from 9-5, fishes on his hand-made boat from 5 until 10, and snowboards over 100 times a year. all i can say is that i am extremely jealous and feel undescribably weak in comparison.
i would use this opportunity to quit smoking and prove to myself i am not a pussy and actually care enough about my well-being to try something such as this.

It really does work
Never done it myself, but I know people that have done this, and they've said (and I've seen!) that it really does seem to do SOMETHING good for them... can't say quite what, but there's a change. And the science behind it makes sense too -
by drinking lemon juice you raise the acidity of your blood, which prompts your body to produce alkaline (basic) compounds to counteract the acid. These alkalines are highly reactive, and will bond to just about anything that isn't bolted down in your body, and flush them out. Works for passing drug tests, and it works for cleaning colons. Go figure.

my question for sage is whether or not this will help me cleanse my body of what i wish to cleanse it of:
i've reached a point where i realize the drugs that i have done are deposited throughout my body. is this cleanse an effective way to remove thc deposits, residual acid, traces of amphetamines, of both pharmaceutical and illegal variety...
this master cleanse says nothing of a supporting regimen of exercise, which other cleansing programs make me believe is required. by the time i leave college, or hopefully sooner, i will put myself through a cleansing program. the best program i have found so far is the purification process suggested by L. Ron Hubbard... not a scientologist but seems that the regulated diet, exercise, sweating in saunas, is a thorough process.

Yeah, it will cleanse that stuff. The more acidic stuff you drink, the better it will work.

I talked to my old man about this diet. He's been a physician specializing in internal medicine for about ten years and went to college for the field for about eleven. I go to him for a western medicine point of view on things and respect his opinion....due to the fact that he is very educated. I asked him about this diet imparticular and he said "it's bullshit, and unhealthy". This however is not an attempt to discredit it completely, more just an attempt at a further analysis into it. I tend to take what i find to be most probable for success, that is to say, i look at eastern and western medicine and find what seems to have the best track record, whether it be completely eastern or completely western or somewhere inbetween. Ths diet appears to be somewhere in the middle, actually probably leaning on the western side a tad. So i am wondering. What are your sources sage. What have they said, what are your experiences, as well as others experiences with this diet. And i also would like people to take inconsideration that it may very well be unhealthy and useless. My dad laughed at the fact that you need to "cleanse" your colon and what not, saying that however sense it may sound like it makes. It's all theoretical and that needing to cleanse these organs under the presumption that they get all clogged and what not, is just untrue for the most part.

HOMEWOOD, Calif. — State wildlife officials continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the illegal poaching of black bear last month at Lake Tahoe.
The bear, named "Sunny," was the mascot of the Homewood-based BEAR League, a nonprofit organization dedicated to bear safety and awareness. Its carcass was found the morning of July 30 on a Homewood beach, according to previous reports, apparently shot in the back or backside.
According to a news release published Wednesday on the California Department of Fish and Game website, the investigating warden determined the bear was shot at close range.
"The type of injury sustained by the bear is indicative of a wound that would bleed severely, leaving obvious evidence at the location where it was shot," according to the news release.
The warden thoroughly searched, but did not locate blood or evidence that a firearm was discharged on any of the properties surrounding the beach where the bear was found, according to Fish and Game.
The incident has angered many Tahoe residents, who've taken to Facebook and other social media to admonish the act and even wish death or other harm upon the suspected poacher.
The BEAR League's Facebook page in particular has been the site of hundreds of comments on the issue. The week of the incident, the nonprofit published a man's name, phone number and the address of his home in Homewood, a man who the group suspects was the shooter.
Another page, Lake Tahoe Wall of Shame, has actively supported the BEAR League's posts and also has been the site of much commentary on the issue. BEAR League Facebook page administrators have since asked residents to withhold judgment against the man, as the incident remains under investigation.
As of last week, the BEAR League began offering a reward for "information leading to the arrest of Sunny's killer," based on funds it has raised. As of Saturday, the reward is more than $3,000. Rewards also are being offered by Fish and Game and the Humane Society of the United States, all totaling $6,500, according to the Los Angeles Times.
In its news release, Fish and Game urged residents to let state wardens handle the issue.
"... Rumors, false information and Internet postings that encourage citizens to take matters into their own hands have the potential to complicate this ongoing investigation," the release reads.
Once the investigation wraps, a report will be submitted to the Placer County District Attorney for consideration.
"Residents of Homewood have every right to be outraged about this bear's death," said Fish and Capt. Brian Naslund in a statement. "As much as we want to bring this poacher to justice, we cannot prove a poaching crime with hearsay and rumor."
Anyone with information that could lead to the arrest and conviction of the shooter is encouraged to call Fish and Game's CalTIP at 888-334-2258. Callers may remain anonymous.

SAN RAMON -- When you watch the stars walk down the red carpet on Oscar night, be sure to keep an eye out for Cynthia and Rex Bordwell.
The San Ramon couple will be up in the bleachers cheering as Jennifer Lawrence, Denzel Washington, Ben Affleck and the rest of the stars walk past.
To get the plum seats, the Bordwells and about 200 others won a lottery and beat out more than 20,000 others who applied for red carpet bleacher seats this year.
Winners pay for their own hotel and transportation to Hollywood, but they get two free tickets to be a part of the audience in front of the Dolby Theatre on Feb. 24. This year's ticket winners will be flying in from India, Canada and from all around the United States, said an Academy representative.
They'll be served breakfast, lunch and drinks. Once the show starts they'll be taken to another location for dinner where they'll watch the show on a big screen.
"It's going to be a really fun day," Cynthia Bordwell said.
Bordwell, 56, said she has had a fascination with celebrities ever since she was a little girl growing up in Pittsburgh, Penn. Her mother was a fan of the Oscars and would let her stay up late and they would watch the awards show together.
"We loved all the glitz and glamour and watching them come in," she said. "Growing up on the East Coast, it seemed like Hollywood was a million miles away."
She and her husband Rex, 64, have lived in San Ramon for the past eight years and commute together to jobs in Silicon Valley. They have five grown children split between previous marriages.
At least twice a year Cynthia and Rex and sometimes some of the kids take trips to Los Angeles, usually after Cynthia lands tickets to TV shows.
Cynthia, along with Rex or her children, has been in the audience for "Dancing With The Stars," "American Idol," "So You Think You Can Dance," as well as "Jimmy Kimmel Live" and "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno."
"I enjoy going," Rex Bordwell said. "I'm not as nutso about it as she is, but I always enjoy going down there. I like the environment. It's exciting and a change of pace."
In 2011, they took a tour of the Kodak Theatre, now the Dolby Theatre, and Cynthia learned there was a drawing each September for free seats in the bleachers at the Oscar show. She applied online at www.oscars.org that year but didn't win. In 2012, she put her and Rex's names in again, and Rex won.
They underwent a background check for security reasons and once they passed they were given the OK to attend.
They don't have favorites yet to win any awards and are mainly looking forward to seeing the stars up close.
"I'm hoping to see Robert Downey Jr., Ben Affleck, Steven Spielberg, Barbra Streisand, ..." Cynthia said. "I'm looking forward to seeing her and maybe her husband James Brolin."
"I'd like to see what Tom Cruise and Danny DeVito look like in real life, and Jessica Chastain from "Zero Dark Thirty," Rex said.
Of all the movies up for Academy Awards, they've only seen "Zero Dark Thirty." Cynthia said their mission is to see as many of the movies nominated as they can before they head to Hollywood.
The couple did have somewhat of a scheduling conflict before deciding to go to the show. Cynthia's son and daughter-in-law have a baby due on the weekend of the Oscars -- but the celeb show won out.
"We thought there'll always be another baby, but we'll never go to another Academy Awards," Rex said.

Anne Carson was born in Toronto, Ontario on June 21, 1950. With the help of a high school Latin instructor, she learned ancient Greek, which contributed to her continuing interest in classical and Hellenic literature. She attended St. Michael's College at the University of Toronto and, despite leaving twice, received her BA in 1974, her MA in 1975 and her PhD in 1981. She also studied Greek metrics for a year at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland.
Since bursting onto the international poetry scene in 1987 with her long poem "Kinds of Water," Carson has published numerous books of poetry including Short Talks (Brick Books, 1992); Glass, Irony and God (New Directions, 1995), which was shortlisted for the Forward Prize; Plainwater: Essays and Poetry (Knopf, 1996); Autobiography of Red (Knopf, 1998), short listed for the National Book Critics Circle Award and the T.S. Eliot Prize; The Beauty of the Husband: A Fictional Essay in 29 Tangos (Knopf, 2001), winner of the T.S. Eliot Prize for Poetry; and NOX (New Directions, 2010). Her most recent books are Red Doc> (Knopf, 2013) and Antigonick (New Directions, 2015).
Carson is also a Classics scholar, the translator of Electra (Oxford University Press, 2001); If Not, Winter: Fragments of Sappho (Knopf, 2002); An Oresteia (Faber and Faber, 2009), and the author of Eros the Bittersweet (Princeton University Press, 1986).
Reviewers have praised the range of Carson's verse, consistently describing her poetry as inventive, visionary, and highly unique. Scholars often discuss the influence of her academic history; Roger Gilbert has noted, "unlike many academic poets she deploys her scholarly voice as a dramatic instrument whose expressive power lies partly in its fragility."
Her awards and honors include the Lannan Literary Award, the Pushcart Prize, the Griffin Poetry Prize, a Guggenheim fellowship, and the MacArthur Fellowship. She was also the Anna-Maria Kellen Fellow at the American Academy in Berlin, Germany.
Carson was the Director of Graduate Studies in Classics at McGill University and taught at Princeton University from 1980-1987. She has also taught classical languages and literature at Emory University, California College of the Arts, the University of California, Berkeley, and the University of Michigan. She currently teaches in New York University's creative writing program.

By BookRenter Briana
Ahh, Valentine's Day… To some of you this is the most romantic time of the year to express your love to that special someone, and to others it is the most pointless and money wasting day ever. Don't get too caught up in the season of love by spending a truck load of money, Valentine's Day doesn't have to cost you an arm and a leg!
Here are a few ideas, to help you decide on the perfect inexpensive way to either spend the day together or make the perfect gift, that screams, "I love you" this Valentines Day.
1. Cook – Instead of going out to dinner and wasting money on over-priced food just because it's Valentine's Day, try making dinner together. It's a lot cheaper and shows a little more effort. Add a few candles and you've got yourself a nice romantic date.
Make a mix CD – of the songs that remind you of each other. I recommend some nice Al Green and some Marvin Gaye. (You might want to avoid Bruno Mars Grenade, I'm just sayin'.)
2. Make a Collage – If you're feeling crafty. If you're not the type of person to keep pictures (Yeah you, guys), go on Facebook and snag a few, get a poster board, slap those pictures on there, write some captions and you got yourself a giant V-day card that will WOW your significant other.
3. Photo Slideshow – Get some cute pictures together, put them on the comp, add a sappy song to it and give them the CD or email it to them. I suggest David Gray "This Years Love"…it's sappy I know.
4. Rent a Movie – One you both enjoy. Buy a bunch of candy, make some popcorn and have an in-home date night.
Bake a heart shaped cake with extra frosting (Betty Crocker style – she knows how to do things on the cheap).
5. Be Outdoorsy – unless you're in the Midwest (sorry guys – you can write in the snow how much you love them). Try and plan a day of activities like sightseeing, hiking, or visiting museums and galleries.
