"The Last Algonquin" - The Movie
What makes a truly great movie? Should it make us forget the world for two hours? Should it make us laugh or cry? Should it teach us something? Should it change our way of thinking, or perhaps even change our character, just from watching it? Should such a movie inspire us, and if so, inspire us to do what, like maybe help our fellow man? Should we walk out of the movie theatre where it played, inspired and determined to do something we had not considered before? Could such a movie help us find peace?
Once in a very great while, perhaps once in a lifetime, or even once in several generations, a book comes along that makes you stop in your tracks. You see flecks of gold in the pages...wait...I think I've found GOLD, you say. You've never seen anything like this. Can it really be GOLD? Right here? You are moved to tears. You burst with emotion...you laugh...you cry. It is GOLD, you say...I've really found it...and it is in this book I'm holding...
Such has been the reaction from many of those who have read, "The Last Algonquin." Recognized by many to be the definitive work on the struggle of the Native American, it has not just been a N.Y. Times best-selling book for many years, but rather a vehicle of transformation for those who have read it. It would be hard to imagine anyone putting the book down without tears in their eyes, moved by its compelling tale of an Algonquin who lived alone for most of his life, believing himself to be the last of his tribe, and asking the young Boy Scout who befriends him to tell his story so that he can live on.
Here are a few comments by readers of the book, sent to Ted Kazimiroff, the book's author:
Dear Ted,
"It's 11:45 at night and I have just finished reading The Last Algonquin. Although I am typically not a late-night person, but sleep is impossible until I write this letter. I have been deeply moved, first by this amazing tale but even more by your skill in conveying not only the story but also the spirit within it. Your father would be so proud of you and Joe Two Trees must be at peace, knowing his story lives.
My father received this book as a gift on Fathers Day from my sister. He is 87 now and both his mind and body have been weakened by a stroke. However, he read it immediately, enjoying the story but also being warmed by so many happy memories of your dad. Then he read it a second time. He couldn't get enough of the good feelings. What a gift that was. Thank you!"
Most sincerely,
--Dorothy Williamson Handel
Dear Ted,
"The day after I finished the book, I truly sobbed as I explained the story to my husband. I have continued to cry when trying to tell friends. And I have highly recommended the book to friends.
Joe Two Trees' story is a powerful one. I am so glad that he met your father and that you have shared that story and relationship. Thank you."
Sincerely yours,
--Susanna Fennema
Dear Mr. Kazimiroff,
"I am a student, of my own choosing, of Native American studies. I am inexplicably drawn to the subject. (All my life!) I usually only read authors of Native American descent. I just finished reading your book, The Last Algonquin and am asking you to PLEASE make the story into a movie. I never write to strangers but I think that others should know this story. I think it would make a very good movie!!"
Very sincerely,
--Judy Torres
Dear Mr. Kazimiroff,
"I wish to tell you that your book of your father's encounter with Joe Two Trees is one of the most wonderful stories I've read in years. Tremendous! I actually came across the book by accident a number of years ago while I was in our public library. Being a sympathetic person, as I am, for the plight of the Native American people, the title of the book jumped out at me. I was not disappointed when I took the book out of the library - on the contrary - I was enthralled! Since then I have purchased the book for myself and as "gifts."
Thank you very much Mr. Kazimiroff for such a beautifully written book. I truly wish somebody would make a decent movie out of it."
Sincerely yours,
--Rick A. Seidita
Dear Mr. Kazimiroff,
"I haven't written an author of a book for a long, long time, but I just had to take the time to write you and thank you personally for writing the book The Last Algonquin, and for keeping the memory of Joe Two Trees alive.
I've never had the privilege of knowing and talking with a real Indian. I just read stories about them, and this was certainly one of the best I've ever read, and I can assure you I will read it again and always treasure it."
--Ruth Ann McCullough
Dear Ted,
"I must tell you how much I enjoyed The Last Algonquin. I could not put it down till I was done with it. What a remarkable story. I felt as if I was there the whole time. You did a wonderful thing in writing the book, and I feel so very privileged to know you personally."
Dear Ted,
"I have just finished reading The Last Algonquin. I find it a little difficult to write this now because I have been crying. When I began the book, I cried also. Then I was moved by the poignancy of your writing this book as a living monument to your father, a great man who touched the lives of everyone he knew so profoundly. When I finished the book, I was crying for Joe Two Trees and the many millions like him, good, decent people whose lives have been blasted by the irrational hates and prejudices they have been forced to endure.
You have written a really fine book, elegant in its simplicity and yet rich with the overtones of many profound truths. I think that the seeds of this story have been within you for many years, for Joe's values have been your values, too. Courage, physical strength, endurance, a love of nature and a kind of transcendent wisdom and intelligence have always characterized you. In this age of easy pleasure, perhaps you are the anachronism just as Joe once was in his age.
I hope that The Last Algonquin brings you the recognition and success you deserve."
So as one can see from these comments, this book can not be taken lightly. It is ready to do all of the things a truly great movie should do: Help us forget the world for two hours. Make us both laugh and cry. Teach us something. Change our way of thinking, and even change our character - just from watching it. Inspire us to help our fellow man. Walk out of the movie theatre where it played, inspired and determined to do something good that we had not considered before. Help us find peace. And perhaps more than anything else...it can help us find God.
Joe Two Trees does live on. And his story will be told. You are welcome to join us in this magnificent adventure and help us see this extraordinary book made into a once-in-a-lifetime motion picture experience.

The Raven
by Edgar Allan Poe
Stanzas XI & XII Summary
Get out the microscope, because we're going through this poem line-by-line.
Lines 61-66
Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,
"Doubtless," said I, "what it utters is its only stock and store
Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful Disaster
Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore –
Till the dirges of his Hope that melancholy burden bore
Of 'Never – nevermore.'"
- This time the answer is a little bit spookier. He said the bird was going to leave and the bird said, "Nevermore."
- That actually makes sense. It's "aptly spoken," as the speaker says. Again, he's a little freaked out, and again he looks for a plausible explanation.
- He tells himself that this bird only knows one word ("his only stock and store") and uses it for every situation. He even tells himself a little story about how the raven might have learned the word.
- He imagines that the bird had a really, really depressed former owner, whose life was such a mess that all he could say was "Nevermore."
Lines 67-72
But the Raven still beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird, and bust and door;
Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore –
What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt and ominous bird of yore
Meant in croaking "Nevermore."
- For some reason he's still fascinated by the bird, and he repeats line 43, about how it beguiles his fancy. So he pulls up a chair, sits in front of the bird, and really lets his imagination go to work.
- He seems like an obsessive guy, and he's already pretty into this raven.
- He sinks into the chair and tries to think what this scary, ancient-looking bird could mean with this one word.
- Even though he guesses that it's just a random word the bird has learned, something still intrigues him; he can't quite let this go.

Dr Ka-Man Lai, Director of the Healthy Infrastructure Research Centre in UCL's Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering discussed how a city itself can be treated as a system when designing out attack from infectious agents and bioterrorists. She focused on questions such as 'Where do infectious agents come from and how they get to us?' and 'How does engineering protect us against infectious agents?'
She also discussed future challenges for securing cities such as new and emerging diseases (such as zoonotic diseases), drug resistant bugs, climate change, growing population densities and changes in land use and urbanization. The second part of her talk focused specifically on bioterrorism—using biological agents as weapons that affect humans and/or animals and agriculture. Dr Lai concluded that "Engineering is the core to healthy cities!" and that a 'Changing world needs new thinking and solutions in order to prepare for future unknowns and uncertainty.'

New Low for Canada Small Business Confidence
By Nirmala Menon
An index of Canadian small business confidence fell in June for a second consecutive month to the lowest since last November, reflecting a less upbeat mood in most industries.
The Canadian Federation of Independent Business said Wednesday its Business Barometer Index dropped to 66.3 from 66.9 the previous month.
"Confidence fell in 11 of 13 industry categories, suggesting the shift in mood is pervasive and not localized to any single sector or region," the lobby group's vice-president and chief economist Ted Mallett said in a report.
In an interview, Mallett said sentiment in the Western provinces, although still more upbeat than the rest of the country, declined slightly as the agriculture sector in Manitoba and Saskatchewan were hurt by floods. Meanwhile, a stabilization in energy prices improved sentiment in Ontario and Quebec, so overall, there was a "bit of narrowing of the gap" in optimism between Western businesses and those in the central and maritime regions, he said.
Still, he noted the figures are not much different compared with the same time last year. "We're not in the territory of a serious slowdown," he said.
According to Toronto-Dominion Bank economic analyst Leslie Preston, the mood in small businesses is in line with softness in other second-quarter indicators due to supply disruptions from the Japanese tsunami and earthquake, and soaring energy costs earlier in the period.
"However, these second-quarter setbacks are temporary and we expect economic growth will pick up in the second half of the year as global supply disruptions abate," Preston wrote in a report.
Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney said last month that it was "possible" for growth in the second quarter to be less than the 2% forecast in April, but it would re-accelerate in the second half of the year. The Bank will update its forecasts later this month.
Shorter-term perspectives on small business performance and hiring are "settling a bit," but Mallett said these changes are not unusual for this time of year as many businesses have to readjust operations after the summer months. Capital spending plans also moderated slightly from the previous month.
However, concern about energy prices, tax and input costs have dropped, and as a result, inflationary expectations have waned. Business owners now expect to have to increase product prices 1.6% in the year ahead, after averaging more than 2% in the March to May period. Average expected annual wage increases remain at 1.8%.
Overall, business owners in financial services, wholesale trade and personal services are the most upbeat, while those in business services and manufacturing are "slightly more positive than the norm," Mallett said. The hospitality and agriculture sectors continue to be the least optimistic.

47 Towns In Ethiopia Get Electricity In Six Months
Sunday, 5 February 2006 -The state-owned Ethiopian Electric Power Corporation (EEPCo) has reached out to 47 towns over the past six months through its national power supply program, the management said Sunday.
Sendeku Araya, public relations manager with EEPCo, told journalists that the firm over the period executed significant activities in power generation, distribution and transmission as well as regular activities that cost it over 3 billion birr (346 million U.S. dollars).
He said the firm has made available power to 12 towns in Somali, ten towns in Afar and nine towns in Benishangul Gumuz states.
He further said the firm has reached two towns in Gambella, six towns in South Ethiopia People's, five towns in Oromia and two towns in the Amhara states with the service.
The EEPCo has made power available to 47 towns satisfying the needs of 71,301 additional subscribers, Sendeku said.
The construction of power generation centers is being implemented ahead of the schedule on the sidelines of power distribution and transmission endeavors, said the manager.
Sendeku said 30 percent of the Gilgel Ghibe II power generation project has been completed.

According to the manager, the construction of the Tekeze power generation project is also being accelerated.
He said installation of 230 kv. line and construction of 230 kv. distribution center is nearing completion in order to take to the northern city of Mekelle the power to be generated from Tekeze.
Sendeku said studies are in progress to implement construction of other power generation centers.
In Ethiopia, only 13 percent of the population has access to electricity but that is expected to rise to 20 percent by 2012.

Church of Misery (チャーチ・オブ・ミザリー Chāchi obu Mizarī?) is a doom metal band from Tokyo, Japan. Church of Misery's style melds early-era Black Sabbath style doom with psychedelic rock.
Most songs by Church of Misery are about serial killers and mass murderers. After several releases on small independent record labels, they released the EP Murder Company on Man's Ruin Records, then moved on to Southern Lord Records to release their debut full-length album, Master of Brutality. In 2004 they released their second full-length album, The Second Coming. That same year Japan's Leaf Hound Records released a compilation of the band's early works. They released three split EPs, two with Sourvein and one with Deer Creek, and a live DVD of their 2005 European tour. They toured Europe in 2006 with Sourvein. They played the Roadburn Festival in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2012.[1]
In 2014, Church of Misery toured Europe three times, the first run of which was a support for Monster Magnet. Following the band's extensive Summer tour, vocalist Hideki Fukasawa, guitarist Ikuma Kawabe and drummer Junji Narita collectively quit, leaving Mikami the only remaining member of the group.[2]
On New Year's Day 2015, through the band's Facebook page, Tatsu Mikami announced plans to record a new album, and flew to Maryland, United States for two weeks in May to record the band's sixth full-length record, And Then There Were None, with Dave Szulkin (Blood Farmers), Eric Little (Earthride) and Scott Carlson (ex-Cathedral, Repulsion). The album is due for release in March 2016 on Rise Above Records.[3]

This guy is a beast.
This guy is a beast.
No thanks, whatever his name might be. We've spent enough recent first-round picks on defensive ends.
He's a 3-4 OLB, so he wouldn't be playing the 5 technique and we definitely need a pass rusher like him or Dion Jordan.
He'll likely be a top 5 pick in the draft, though.
If we keep playing like we have been we could pick at 15 or lower
Mingo's teammate, ILB Kevin Minter was the beast today versus Florida. Today Minter had 20 tackles, 17 solo, 2 sacks, 3 TFL's, and 1 FF and he actually left the game for awhile to go to the locker room because of an injury. Kevin Minter is the guy a lot of people dont know about but will be talking about him a lot when the college season is over.

Can acid reflux cause chest, arm and breast pain
This question has not been answered by one of our experts yet.
I have had chest, arm and back pain. It often moves around a little but more so chest. I went to the doctor because it seems like symptoms of a heart attack. After running a serious of test (MRI, CATSCAN, Anagram). I mean they did everything. The result came back with no heart problems. They even put me on that treadmill at top speed. So they gave me a GI cocktail to move all the acid out of my esophagus and two hours or so later the pain went away. I didn't know acid reflux could cause so must pain, but it can cause chest pain, back pain and pain down your arms.READ MORE
I have that same pain. Mine was so bad before I even turned grey. I get burning in the center of my chest. My left shoulder and arm hurt bad accompanied sometimes by a headache or jaw pain. I have had my arm go numb before. My right arm hurts sometimes too. Each time it was bad I went to the ER and they found nothing. I had an echo test and C score test. They were both negative. No medication works. I have quit them all. I just deal with the pain now pretty much every day for the last few years. READ MORE
Im having the same symptoms. All test negative. Its a little scary. On other hand im glad to know im not having heart issues. The er doctor told me that there are no nerve ending in the chest area so the brain causes pain in other parts of the body to let u know something is wrong. Thats why some peoples left arm go numb when theyre having heart issues. she said that there Is nothing wrong with the arm, its just a signal. READ MORE
Thanks for your question. GERD has been known to cause chest pain in some people, acording to this list of common symptoms. However, chest an arm pain are often times indicators of something more serious. Check with your doctor about these symptoms as soon as possible to make sure they are not angina and heart attack. You may want to try using this symptom checker before you go to have some background information when talking with your doctor. I hope this helps.READ MORE
My primary care doctor has prescribed ome omeprazalome for the acid reflux.
Also I am having a stress-echo test to see if the may be heart related.
The arm pain is most noticeable when I mow the lawn.

text: The study of history enables us to understand our own culture and others over time. The history major at Seton Hall University enables students to do this by requiring a geographic distribution of courses that covers the world. It offers a depth of understanding of history through specific courses for majors on the craft and methodology of historians, providing an opportunity to practice history through research and writing projects. Small class sizes provide the opportunity to interact with faculty members who are active scholars. Students can join the History Club and qualify for membership in Phi Alpha Theta, the National History Honor Society. There are opportunities for internships, as well as study abroad to such locations as Rome, England, Ireland and Russia. History majors can double major in education by completing New Jersey state requirements for certification in elementary, middle, high school and special education. Students study with faculty members who have a wide range of specialties in American, European, Latin American and African history. Faculty, most of whom have Ph.D.s, specialize in Catholic history, legal history, women's history, military history and film history. They also specialize in French, German, Italian, Russian, Irish and African-American history, as well as the history of New Jersey. Chronological specialties include the American Revolution, French Revolution, Civil War and the 20th century. Offerings are rounded out with courses offered by faculty in Asian studies and classical studies. A new course, History Honors Research, offers qualified students guidance in advanced research and the opportunity to graduate with "Honors in History." A five-year dual-degree B.A./M.A. in History is also available. History majors complete a 36-credit course of study, beginning with survey courses and advancing to upper-division offerings in Global, American, European, Latin American, Middle Eastern and Asian History. As part of the major, students also complete a sequence of three methods courses: Introduction to Historical Research, a Colloquium and Senior Seminar. Students also have the option of pursuing honors research in history and are strongly encouraged to acquire competency in at least one foreign language. To talk to a faculty adviser, contact Nathaniel Knight, Ph.D., chair of The Department of History, at (973) 275-2984 or email@example.com.

If someone told me this story I would never have believed it.
The video, posted last month by the Cape Don Barramundi fishing lodge in the Northern Territory, records an epic angling saga that pitched man against shark, shark against shark, crocodile against shark and, eventually, man against crocodile.
All appears to be going well when the clip begins, with one of the party landing a fair-sized shark as he fishes off the side of a yacht. Things become more exciting when another shark swims in for an easy lunch, prompting the cameraman to note: "Oh! Another shark's attacking him!"
The valiant angler labours on, and before long the greedy interloper disappears and the thrashing shark is dragged on to the beach with the help of a boathook. But the triumph is short-lived. Within seconds the dark green outline of a saltwater crocodile appears at the water's edge and the reptile dashes on to the beach to make a grab for the shark.
Disaster is averted only by the swift intervention of another member of the fishing party, who leaps towards the thief and delivers a warning blow to its snout with the boathook. Suitably chastised, the croc turns tail and swims off.
The video ends with the slightly shaken group posing for a photo around the unfortunate shark. The man who landed it seems a little distracted and has to be reminded there is a protocol for such occasions. "You've got to do the old put-a-foot-on-its-head thing," the cameraman reminds him.
Crocodiles in the area appear to have realised it is often easier to let the humans do the work. Last November the Northern Territory News reported that a three-metre "saltie" spied on a group of fishermen before tucking into the shark they had just reeled in.

Clothing in Church: Why It Matters
My little brother is one of my favorite people. He is patient and gentle and considerate and funny. (Although I would never tell him that.) He is in his last year at Westmont College, my alma mater, and for the past few years has been putting his music composition major to use by playing in the band at a local church on Sunday mornings. He enters into worship with a grateful heart and works hard to cultivate a space where other people can do the same.
And he does all this without wearing shoes.
He just doesn't care. He's always been an incredibly casual dresser, wearing shorts and flip-flops all through the freezing months of winter in the Midwest. So showing up to church barefoot and in a T-shirt is not only normal for him, but to dress in anything nicer would, to him, be a violation of conscience in the eyes of the God who bids us come as we are.
Last month, Duane Litfin, former president of Wheaton College, wrote an interesting op-ed for Christianity Today called "Clothing Matters: What We Wear to Church." In it, Litfin makes the case for a thoughtful approach to dressing for public worship services. Framing his argument in terms of offering God our best, our first fruits, that which is sacrificial, Litfin suggests that we display an attitude of awe and reverence when we enter into communal worship. He cites Scriptures like 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 and Romans 12:1, where we hear about our bodies being living sacrifices to God. The most convincing part of all of this, though, comes when Litfin says "I do wish to raise a question about the notion … that when it comes to public worship, our clothing doesn't matter."
In a great post on the Cardus blog, Kyle Bennett calls fashion "an exercise on virtue." Fashion is relevant here because, like our faith, it speaks to the soul. As Christians, we have not only a right but also a responsibility to attend to anything that claims such important territory, whether we agree with its place or not. How we respond to issues of clothing and dress can speak a great deal about our heart toward God. In the words of Abraham Kuyper, "There is not one square inch of the entire creation about which Jesus Christ does not cry out, 'This is mine! This belongs to me!'"
On this point Litfin and I agree: Our clothing is not neutral. We dress ourselves every day (hopefully!) and in doing so, we make some kind of statement. The way we dress is frequently an external expression of an internal reality, a way for "the body, or even the self, to communicate itself to society," in the words of theologian Tom Beaudoin. In his simple and austere dress, Shane Claiborne clearly communicates a concern for and solidarity with the poor. Businesspeople dress in dark-toned suits and sensible shoes in order to be taken seriously in their world. We can all think of singers and actresses and teenage girls who frequently dress with the sole purpose of attracting sexual attention. (This brings to mind my ill-fated run-in with a midriff-bearing halter top in eighth grade; I still shudder to think of the temporary blindness my porcelain stomach inflicted on innocent passersby.) Clothing matters because, as part of human culture, it either points to or obscures the glory of God in creation, and what we wear reveals our deep values and orientation toward the world.

Pajamas Media » Should Cops or Generals Spearhead the War on Terror?
A closer reading of the RAND study shows it doesn't wholly disparage military force. The monograph, How Terrorist Groups End, points out that terror groups often become susceptible to political reconciliation or police action only after the neutralization of their geopolitical and state sponsors, a process in which military force plays a preeminent role.
Based on a study of "648 groups that existed between 1968 and 2006″, RAND finds "the evidence … indicates that most [terrorist] groups have ended because (1) they joined the political process or (2) local police and intelligence arrested key members.†Yet this is often made possible only by the decline in the fortunes of their international sponsors. The RAND report gives a number of examples.
Page 15 says "a number of terrorist groups that advocated the creation of an independent Armenian state, such as the Armenian Resistance Group, disbanded after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Page 21 says "the collapse of the Soviet Union meant that a number of groups, such as the FMLN in El Salvador, saw their outside assistance quickly begin to dry up.†Page 69 cites the "end of the Cold War†and the "Soviet Union's withdrawal of support for Marxist movements in Latin America†as a key factor in the the Salvadoran insurgency's decision to negotiate a peace settlement.
Gosh. You mean the way to win the "war on (islamofascist) terror gangs" is to destroy their state sponsorships?
And military force is one way of accomplishing precisely that?
Oh, my god. Who could possibly have imagined such a thing?
Except Daily Pundit, which has been shouting exactly that strategy at the top of its lungs for approximately six years, and pointing repeatedly to the works of the chief proponent of that strategy, Angelo Codevilla?

SOMEONE TO LOOK UP TO: Ward Participates in Big Brothers/Big Sisters Program
Thursday, 03.24.2011 / 4:25 PM CT / Community
By Jena Smith - NashvillePredators.com
Joel Ward gives back by mentoring less fortunate kids through the Big Brothers Big Sisters Program
As the youngest child in the Ward family, Joel always had an older sibling to look up to. He is now able to look back and realize the important and significant role his older brothers had in his childhood. Never having the opportunity to have someone in his own family look up to him in that magnitude, Ward has found a way to make it possible today. The Nashville Predators' forward is putting both his fun loving, childlike side together with his guidance and leadership through Big Brothers Big Sisters.
Big Brothers Big Sisters is the oldest and largest youth mentoring organization in the United States. The organization reaches out to those youths in the community who may need extra help and guidance in order to achieve their highest potential. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Middle Tennessee will sever over 2,800 children and teenagers in the great Middle Tennessee area in 2010 alone.
Last spring while attending the Nashville Predators' Gala event Ward had the chance to speak with a few individuals involved with the Middle Tennessee chapter of Big Brothers Big Sisters.
"It was something I kind of always wanted to do but I guess just kind of needed a little push. When I met a few people at the gala last year that's what really swayed me. I was in their office just a couple days later," Ward said.
After going through the standard application and background check Ward was contacted by Amber Leach, Manager in the Match Support Division of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Middle Tennessee. Leach was quickly able to find Ward a match in thirteen year old Malik.
"She found a match with Malik and everything has been pretty good since then."
Ward loves to bring Malik down to the rink for practice or a game, go out for a movie, or even head over to the local YMCA to play basketball; however Ward will let anyone know his main focus is on Malik's school work and grades.
"As of late we have been focusing on going over homework; we are working on getting his reading grade up a little bit. Overall though it is all about working on getting and keeping his school grades up and helping him move on to high school and eventually graduate."
Malik is not shy about keeping Ward updated on his school work and behavior in the classroom either.
"He updates me every day whether he is having a good day of class or not. Usually I get a text or a call to let me know if he has had a good day," Ward explains.
With summer and training camp over Ward is looking forward to being in town and finding more time to spend with his "little brother" this fall.
"Being out of town over the summer we kept in contact over the phone, and training camp was very busy so I look forward to being able to meet up more often now. He is a very smart individual. He just enjoys life and is a very interesting kid. I just really enjoy hanging out with him whenever I get a chance."
Ward once again is able to see the importance big brothers and big sisters have in one's life and that it doesn't matter if it is by birth or by chance. Ward very honored and finds pride in having the chance to do as his older brothers did for him and give the guidance, support and compassion to his new brother.
"It has been a great experience for me. It is one I am just honored to take part in. I didn't realize the kind of experience it would be when I first signed up for it. It has been amazing. "

- But don't rest on your laurels; there will probably still be room for improvement.
- She said of the three offices, one was doing extremely well while the other two had room for improvement.
- There is plenty of room for anarchy in such a world, and plenty of room for utopianism, but no real place for the state.
- One of the delightful surprises is the ceiling of the toddler room on the second floor.
- Finally, the attic conversion has added two further rooms with walls and ceilings panelled in white deal.
- On the first floor the master bedroom and en suite bathroom are both spacious rooms with high ceilings.
- Others join in and the whole room burst into a riot of clapping, yells, and screaming.
- Isis thought of how she would like to be able to quiet a whole room by just her presence.
- We suggest with this game that rather than reporters popping up, there should be a whole room of reporters.
- They get the sign-painter's boy to help, because his family rents rooms in the schoolmaster's house.
- Gwen and her family lived in the upper rooms of a small house and I knew from experience that the smell of too many people in too small a place hit a person the second they opened the front door.
- He lives in rooms set apart from the rest of the house, to allow him some independence from his parents.
verb[no object] North American
- It was a phrase your father used on me back when we roomed together here at The Institute.
- You might be rooming in the same dorm house you know.
- I was simply tickled when I found out that we would be rooming together.

- Her kids are constantly telling them to "get a room."
- Oh, just get a room, you two.
- Whoa, get a room, you guys!
no (or not) room to swing a cat
- humorous Used in reference to a very confined space: there's not even room to swing a cat!Cat in the sense 'cat-o'-nine-tails'More example sentences
- You don't need to have been inside a dog trap yourself to understand that there isn't room to swing a cat in there,
- We have a splendid cabin and there's plenty of room - but in most places there isn't room to swing a cat.
smoke-filled rooms
- Used in reference to political decision-making conducted privately by a small group of influential people rather than more openly or democratically: he understands the party machine, the smoke-filled rooms, and the endless resolutionsMore example sentences
- We got into this mess because we needed to create political leadership opportunities and replace the smoke-filled room with the open-source, collaborative politics that is our future.
- After the Civil War, said Bonpane, 'Hayes agreed in a smoke-filled room to take the Yankee troops out of the South.'
- The voters don't really participate in the primaries, and I think Sandy's got a point: not necessarily a smoke-filled room, but bring back party leadership.
Old English rūm, of Germanic origin; related to Dutch ruim, German Raum.
In Old English room meant 'the amount of space occupied by something', and did not mean 'an interior division of a building' until the 14th century. The majority of houses then would have had only one room. Sometimes political negotiation is described as having taken place in a smoke-filled room, meaning that it has been conducted privately rather than more openly. The expression comes from a 1920s news report about the selection of the Republican presidential candidate, Warren Harding, who in 1921 became the 29th president of the United States. According to the report he was 'chosen by a group of men in a smoke-filled room'. Harding was at the time something of a dark horse, and a lack of openness and democracy was associated with his selection. Room at the top is a way of describing the opportunity to join the higher ranks of an organization. The phrase is attributed to the American politician Daniel Webster (1782–1852), who was warned against attempting to enter the overcrowded legal profession. He is said to have replied, 'There is always room at the top.' The phrase was taken up in the early 20th century and was used as the title of John Braine's first novel, published in 1957, about an ambitious young man in an industrial town in the north of England which was filmed in 1959. An elephant in the room is an obvious, major problem or controversial issue that is being studiously avoided as a subject for discussion. The phrase was originally American, and seems to have been first used in the early 1980s, in the language of therapists treating people addicted to drink or drugs. An alternative is a moose on the table. See also cat

COLUMBIA (AP) — South Carolina health and environmental officials announced on Wednesday measures they hope will help stop the spread of toxic chemicals to water treatment systems across the state.
Department of Health and Environmental Control director Catherine Templeton told the Associated Press that she was issuing an emergency regulation that would prevent landfills or farmers from using sludge that contains any level of PCBs.
PCBs, or polychlorinated biphenyls, are man-made organic chemicals that were used for decades in a variety of industrial applications, including plastics and hydraulic equipment. Banned in 1979 after tests showed they could cause ailments including cancer, PCBs are found when decades-old facilities are cleaned out or demolished.
Current regulations govern how materials containing the toxic chemicals are supposed to be disposed of. Federal law says that any material with more than 50 parts per million of PCBs is supposed to go to a special out-of-state facility, while material containing lower amounts can be stored in local landfills.
But Templeton said the chemicals are being illegally dumped and are ending up in sewer treatment plants.
The water that is ultimately treated is safe to drink or boat or swim in, Templeton stressed. But PCBs adhere to the sludge that's left behind – material that is ultimately shipped off, stored in landfills or, in some places, sprayed on hay crops by farmers, she said.
Under the new regulations issued on Wednesday, material containing any level of PCBs will be prohibited from being stored in South Carolina landfills or sprayed on any of the state's crops, Templeton said.
DHEC has already been investigating PCB dumping in the Upstate, where the hazardous chemicals have been found in at least five sewer treatment systems. But Templeton said she felt it necessary to step in after PCBs were detected in dumped materials in Richland County.
"PCBs are such a long ago thought," she said. "It's very unfortunate for the water facilities that have been a victim of this crime."
Templeton is also asking all of the state's law enforcement agencies to put their officers on alert to any potentially illegal dumping of PCB-containing materials, particularly trucks backed up to tanks, manholes, sewer drains, storm drains, or restaurant grease traps at night.
"No one ever contemplated such a criminal act as this," she said.

AVON PARK — There is a different sound coming from the practice fields as the Avon Park football team goes through spring drills.
The 52 youthful Red Devils were being encouraged by the coaching staff as they learned the fundamentals of blocking and tackling under the scorching sun Tuesday afternoon.
Patient coaching and positive reinforcement is being utilized by second-year Avon Park football coach Wade Jackson and his staff.
"We're excited about getting spring football practice underway," said Jackson. "We've got 52 players with great attitudes out for the team which is double what we had last year. "We have 16 players back who played varsity last year and we have a lot of players who will be sophomores who will play varsity.
"We've got some talent, but we're going to be a young team with a lot of sophomores."
Avon Park struggled to a 1-9 record last year playing a brutal schedule, but the players never quit and bought into the system that Jackson was using.
"Our first goal last year was to change the attitudes of the players and we did that," the Red Devil coach said. "Our offseason weight program went well and the kids are excited to be on the field. We're a small school and a lot of our athletes play other sports, but we had good attendance and our goal is to get stronger and faster."
Avon Park is switching to a new offense and the Red Devils have to replace talented senior quarterback Alfred Brown, who had a solid season behind center.
"We're going to run a little more spread offense this year," Jackson said. "We've got some kids that have good speed and can catch the ball. "We ran this offense in 2005 when I was an assistant coach under T.C Cousins, and we want to get our players in space and I think it's a good fit for the talent we have.
"We have Kody Littles, Warren Buckner and A'Darius Council playing quarterback and all of those kids are hard workers and they love the game."
Avon Park has good depth at running back and a bevy of talented wide receivers to throw to.
"We have a plethora of quality running backs," Jackson said. "We want to be balanced on offense and when we throw the ball we have a number of wide receivers who are playmakers."
Avon Park has a red/white scrimmage set for Friday, May 16. The scrimmage starts at 5 p.m. and Jackson is looking forward to seeing what his players can do in game situations.
"We're having a controlled scrimmage and we want to see what our players have learned," the Red Devil coach said. "We're focusing on the fundamentals and executing the plays correctly."
Being in his second year as the head coach has made a big difference for Jackson.
"It's a lot easier this year because the players know what we expect and myself and the other coaches have built relationships with the players," the Avon Park coach said. "I think that's been a big turnaround for us and you're only as good as the people behind you and I'm fortunate to have a great coaching staff that the players trust and have responded to."
Avon Park plays its spring game on May 23 at St. Petersburg Catholic.
"St. Petersburg Catholic is a solid program and I'm looking forward to seeing what our athletes can do against a quality team," Jackson said. "We want to give all of our players a chance to compete and see how they react against a different team. We want to win because that carries positive momentum into the summer program, but I'm more concerned with are we doing the right things and moving in the right direction."

News 12 at 6, December 26, 2007
EVANS -- If you're frustrated with your options for health care, you're certainly not alone. 12 On Your Side found there's a new clinic, which may be changing all of that.
It's called MedExpress and it's designed to be a prescription for affordability and convenience.
When it comes to being patient, while being a patient, Mike Sizemore doesn't always have time to do that.
So this time when he got sick, he turned to a new clinic called MedExpress.
"You walk in, see someone quickly and get out the door pretty quickly," Mike said.
MedExpress isn't your ordinary clinic. It treats many common illnesses and minor injuries that might cause you to sit for hours in an ER or traditional doctor's offices.
It's fast and affordable and you'll actually know what you're going to pay before you're treated.
Most people like Mike get out for between $50 and $60 in under an hour. And get this, health insurance is not even accepted.
"When you have insurance and you've got a co-pay, you still have to call the physician's office, make an appointment and maybe you get in and maybe not," Mike said.
MedExpress is staffed by nurse practioners like Claire Gladue who are highly trained and are authorized to diagnose illnesses and write prescriptions to get you on the road to recovery.
"We're increasing health care for indigent persons. Folks who don't have access to health care for various reasons," Claire said.
It's a formula that's worked in many other cities around the country, but it's not meant to replace your family doctor. It's just meant to complement the service your regular doctor can provide.
"We wanted to find an easy way for people to get those easy things taken care of quickly," said MedExpress Medical Director Dr. Fred Merrill.
In a day and age of rising health care costs, it's just another option you have to make sure you can get medical attention when you need it, which is something Mike Sizemore appreciates. "The convenience of a pay-as-you-go clinic; you can get in and get out. It's very easy," he said.
There are many things MedExpress cannot treat you for, but they will refer you to the right places to get you the help you need.

First day of Spring went splendidly across the Brazos Valley -- sunshine accompanied seasonable highs. We'll look for a few changes to move in on Friday, which will lead to a flip-flop in conditions by the weekend.
First Spring Friday
Hopefully you got your fill of sunshine on Thursday. Mostly cloudy skies will filter back into the Brazos Valley by Friday morning.
While we should get a good mix of sun and clouds, to wrap up the week, it won't be the wall-to-wall blue skies that were on hand to kick off the Spring season.
Increased cloud cover is change #1 for the area.
Change #2 -- breezy south to southeast winds. We'll look for a bit more sunshine to get through by the afternoon hours, which should help stir up gusts around 20mph at times.
Overall -- still a great day to get out and enjoy some time out of the house. Those southerly winds will help notch temperatures to the mid / upper 70s.
Spring Is Here -- But Don't Tell Winter That
It is clouds and breezy winds on Friday.
Change #3 & #4 -- rain chances and cooler weather return by Saturday afternoon / evening.
We'll look for a cold front to slice through Texas as we jump start the weekend. By the end of the afternoon, we'll look at temperatures in the mid-70s across the Brazos Valley, while folks up the road will find jacket weather as the thermometer tanks to the 40s and 50s.
PinPoint Forecast for 4pm Temperatures across Texas Saturday, March 22nd, 2014
With that cold front, a chance for showers and a stray rumble of thunder will pop up across the area:
PinPoint Forecast for 4pm "Future Radar" across Texas Saturday, March 22nd, 2014
Weekend Ends with a Chill
The graphic below can do most of the talking. Needless to say, just because it is Spring, doesn't mean that winter is ready to give up the ghost.
Sunday will find scattered, light showers and temperatures struggling to reach the mid / upper 50s.
Monday brings another shot of widespread showers and temperatures that could have a hard time making it to 50°.
Here is the *Grain-of-Salt-Cast*: When it is all said and done -- between Saturday afternoon and Monday evening -- the Brazos Valley could see anywhere around a few tenths of an inch of rain (Western / Central Counties) to 0.50"+ (areas along I-45 & points east).
Here's an early estimate, per the GFS Computer Forecast Model:
Stay Up-To-Date
There are still some details to tweak in that weekend forecast. The general idea is for cooler and soggy conditions to take over for a bit. That said, just how cool will be largely dependent on how overcast and rainy we remain. Updates later here on the Weather Page of KBTX.com...

Kiss FM disk jockey Kidd Kraddick laughs at a comment made by a call in viewer Monday during the stations morning show in 1996.
Kraddick has been a staple in the Dallas market since his late-night debut in 1984 on "The Eagle" KEGL-FM (97.1). But his ascension to mainstay status began in 1992, when he moved to Kiss-FM and began broadcasting his morning show. By 2001 the show was syndicated, and, according to his website, is heard in more than 100 cities.

Running, Pap Smears, Menstrual Release, and More Weekend LinksOctober 13th, 2012 by Elizabeth Kissling
One response to "Running, Pap Smears, Menstrual Release, and More Weekend Links"
Thank you for this post – I heard about 'menstrual release' a few years ago, a woman said she was taught how to do this by someone in California who was working on bringing about the method as a book or web site, so she couldn't tell me much more about it. Although we were talking about it in context of free-bleeding; bleeding onto clothing, layering clothing as sanitary protection or instinctive bleeding (aka menstrual release).

I am Mirahmad Mirzai, owner/chef at Afghan Kabob Palace of Charlottesville. Located at 400 Emmet St. N. Charlottesville, VA 22903.
Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I was born and raised in Kabul, Afghanistan. We came to the United States in December of 1983 father decided it was best for the safety of our family. I started my first job as a dishwasher in a restaurant and worked my way up while I was a full time high-school student. After graduating from high school, I went to college and majored in Business Management. One year later, I found a spot to start a small business. With very little money and help from family in June, 1987, I opened my first restaurant, Ariana Afghan Kabob, in New York City at 787 9th Avenue New York, NY. With the assistance of my parents, the restaurant flourished. After the horrific tragedy of September 11, 2001, many businesses, including our restaurant, suffered. On March 2002, I sold Ariana to my uncle, who still owns it.
I came to Charlottesville and opened an Afghan restaurant with a partner. Two years later, I decided to open the Afghan Kabob Palace to better serve the City of Charlottesville authentic Afghan food in an elegant and comfortable setting. Whether on a romantic date or a family fun night, the Afghan Kabob Palace offers just the right atmosphere and meals to suit just about anyone's taste. Our specialty is kabobs & vegetarian dishes. My personal favorite dish is the pumpkin curry.
I'd love to know your favorite. Email me and let me know what I can do to improve your Afghan Kabob Palace experience. I look forward to hearing from you and seeing you in our restaurant very soon! If you want to learn more about the Afghan Kabob Palace, come by today!


text: In 1987 just after Pazienza beat Haugen for the 135lb IBF title match maker Teddy Brenner tried to make this fight to be held at the Boston garden. Ward was 14-0 and an up and comer, but Paz saw it as a step backwards and declined. IF it had happened how would it have played out? Paz had tremendous speed at this weight and was much more experienced against a better class of fighter. He did have a tendancy to cut and swell though. Could Ward make a fight of it, or would Vinny be to much?

Truck Driver
Typical Day
Okay, forget the notion of mornings at 7am and evenings at 6pm. They don't exist for truckers. Truckers drive odd hours and prefer driving in the wee hours. No traffic. No cops. No hassles. They can zip along the highways and get to where they need to go and life is free and easy with the windows down and the wind blowing through their ha…across their scalp.
Sure, it can be lonely, but there are cell phones and music services and trucker stops along the way where hardcore truckers can share stories of the road and argue optimal oil viscosities for their monster engines.
Wily Willie Wheelie works for Greedy Jerks R Us, Inc. They hired him during boom economic times right out of high school; they trained him, took them under their wing, and taught him the ropes. His parents were so proud—Wily Willie had been hanging out with rougher and rougher crowds, and they worried he'd end up in jail, or shot…or worse, a Libertarian. So when GJRU gave him a salary and minimal mile targets to hit, his parents were thrilled. He could pay his bills and "get some real world experience," as his father, a mechanic, liked to say.
WWW had an uneventful first two years. He took every shift offered to him, made some extra money from overtime, and the days sort of evaporated. Like...a "day" or at least a typical one didn't exist. His life revolved around delivery missions more than the sun.
So he thought about his life in typical units:
• Show up at main truck depot hub in the far outskirts of town at 6pm.
• Watch the tractors load the truck he was taking with...whatever.
• Take a good luck walk around the truck to inspect everything from its tires to the oil to the way in which the toys were loaded.
• Print a paper copy of the Google map to the destination.
• Be sure cell phone battery charger is in the car; suitcase is loaded; extra underwear —it will be a hot run to Texas, this trip.
• And then by 7pm as traffic is dying, he starts on his 1,400-mile journey.
WWW had a handy dandy calculator which he had mastered his third time through Algebra 1 in high school. He plugged in a predicted speed average of 70 miles an hour over 1,400 miles and realized that it'd be a 20-hour mission. If he drove it straight through, he'd show up in Galveston at 11pm—the toy store would be totally closed.
So driving 20 hours straight didn't make any sense. It would be a long sit anyway, and he was only moderately rested. He always tried to get in a good nap or three before a mission, but his body didn't adjust all that fast and he knew he'd be groggy at some point.
So he decided that he'd make this mission easy on himself and just drive halfway or so. He wanted to show up at the toy store at 7am—early enough to avoid traffic around the city central of Galveston (not that it's NYC or anything), and he wanted to be sure he was there so that he was the first (ish) truck on the loading dock. He also wanted to avoid the Texas summer heat as much as possible, so this schedule made sense.
Poking through his map, he noted the 47 rest stops that he had visited in the past; the best ones—with actual heated water in the showers—were starred in yellow in his little rest stop diary. This was countered by black stars around bad experiences he'd had in rest stops; he preferred to avoid rest stop diarrhea.
He would drive 12 hours and sleep from 7am the following morning until 6pm and then drive all night to finish the leg to Galveston and hit his time targets. Easy.
And since WWW had produced good results (meaning no red flags, no problems, no tickets, no accidents), he got the nicer truck this time—way better technology; that is, it had its own mini satellite dish for TV (when he wasn't driving, of course), back-up camera, and programmable juke box horn.
And the big new thing for WWW was that he was now a trainer class driver. WWW at 21 years old was now able to take new drivers under his wing, and this trip would be his first as a trainer. He simply had to sit in the passenger seat and direct his trainee in...driving. And this trainee would only drive with him for about 140 miles—or about two hours—he would then be dropped at a different truck rest stop along the edge of the highway where another trainer would work with him.
For the pleasure of training, WWW got an extra dime a mile on top of the money he was making anyway. And this way there was at least some company to gab with. Made life easier.
WWW drives on, and the days continue to blend into one. As he drives, he thinks to himself that it might be nice to go home one of these days. Come to think of it, he can't remember if he asked someone to take care of his cat before he left.

Make them something yummy.
Even if you regularly have a homemade dinner on the table at 6pm sharp (I don't!), there's something extra special about having a little something sweet made for the one's you love.
It doesn't have to be some takes-all-day project. I'm a huge fan of popping some break-and-bake or slice-and-bake cookies in the oven. It makes the house smell divine and when you serve them with a glass of cold milk, you'll get no complaints.
If you're looking for something a little more special (but still easy), try my Apple and Pear Crisp Fake Out. No one will EVER guess how easy it is.
