IS GENERAL STANLEY McCHRYSTAL THE NEXT "HELEN THOMAS?"
General Stanley McChrystal, top US commander in Afghanistan has been summoned home for a "briefing," read "waterboarding session" after news of an upcoming article in this week's Rolling Stone magazine hit the White House. His crime? General McChrystal is guilty of honesty, discernment, good judgement and communicating his sanity in private with the kind of candor we lived without during the Bush years, much to our sorrow. It is obvious that General McChrystal was targeted, not unlike White House correspondent Helen Thomas. Why? Who or what did General McChrystal threaten?
I haven't always been a big fan of General McChrystal. His willingness to "toe the line" in the face of something well beyond disaster, too often seeming to be more part of the problem than the solution has cost him credibility. Whether his actions and seeming lack of leadership was careerism or simply as it may be coming out now, the fact that he has been drowning in a sea of manure has become clear and the general, in my opinion, is the better for letting us know. It's not like this isn't a total disaster, this thing in Afghanistan, corruption, drugs, failure coming out our ears.
So, General McChrystal has noticed that Vice President Joe Biden isn't quite up to the task. I would call that a good catch. I would feel better if, somewhere at least, there was an email from McChrystal referring to Dick Cheney as a dangerous sociopath and paranoid but if our general has to wake up, even at this late date, we are certainly the better for it. Another good catch is his assessment of General James Jones. The quote comes from an aide, not McChrystal but calling Jones "a clown stuck in 1985? borders on pure brilliance.
Another stroke of McChrystal brilliance is the quote:
"Oh, not another e-mail from Holbrooke… I don't even want to open it."
I wonder what it is about Holbrooke that the general is disturbed by? Could it be drug policy? The Holbrooke policy of paying the Taliban to grow more drugs is, I think, an original approach to eradication. Colonel Eugene Khruschev, former First Secretary of the Russian Embassy in Kabul, now commentator for RTV and editor of Veterans Today refers to Holbrooke as Afghanistan's "drug kingpin" in partnership with "Karzai brothers incorporated." Do you think this might be what might be disturbing the general?
What else could be disturbing the general? Notwithstanding the fact that we entered the war in Afghanistan under false pretenses, chasing a handful of terrorist suspects, an effort that has turned into a decade long war, really a civil war in, not only Afghanistan but now Pakistan as well, Afghanistan itself would never be a problem that could be solved by a military solution. Dragging in the Karzai gang, surrounded by Bush era fraudsters, political hangers on and a totally disreputable Kabul regime, could only be a recipe for disaster.
With, literally hundreds of our highest ranking retired officers working as paid lobbyists for Israel or deeply involved in massive defense appropriations fraud, with dozens taking Pentagon paychecks to work for the Republican party, having a commander speak privately about his command environment is the least of our problems. McChrystal has his job because there isn't anyone left. The Bush administration and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, through application of a religious and political purity test, eliminated every American military leader with backbone. Now, when someone seems to be making noises resembling reality based thinking, our new President feels a need to assume the sins of his predecessor, a man of monumental failures.
To be honest, military leaders in America have, typically, not been the "brightest bulbs in the pack." With the service academies and promotion process skewed to favor reactionary elements within the military, "deep thinkers" are typically shunned. Nobody is accusing General McChrystal of being a deep thinker. However, when anyone in the military begins to show signs of outgrowing the sequestered permanent childhood, the culture of spineless mediocrity that has made our military what it is today, a bloated parasite pushing a poverty stricken nation into collapse, the vultures begin to gather.
My only hope is that General McChrystal and, perhaps General Petraeus might demonstrate more "reality based" beliefs, such as a broad understanding of geopolitics, history and even economics. Thus far such things have not reared their ugly heads but who knows? We await the signs that some of our leaders truly "get it." When will we hear the magic "v" word, "Vietnam" in reference to Afghanistan?
When will the magic "I" word come up, involving "that special country" that pushes us into its wars, wars that were never ours?
When will the magic "A" word come up, "America?" A "reality based" understanding of geopolitics, history and economics behind a true patriotism, a belief in American values, putting America first, her people, her freedoms, her real traditions, would be a nice change from years of "whittling away." Is speaking out a first sign that Duty Honor and Country is more than empty talk?

Taylor back for Black Caps (From Congleton Guardian)
Taylor back for Black Caps
1:29am Friday 1st February 2013 in © Press Association 2014
England will face destructive batsman Ross Taylor in both their forthcoming Twenty20 and one-day international series against New Zealand.
Former Kiwi captain Taylor returns as expected to the squads after apparently re-establishing a working relationship with Black Caps coach Mike Hesson.
Taylor, 28, missed New Zealand's tour of South Africa after losing the captaincy in controversial circumstances during a previous trip to Sri Lanka but he will return under the leadership of Brendon McCullum for back-to-back series of three T20s and three ODIs, starting next week.
Taylor, currently beginning his comeback in a Plunket Shield match for Central Districts, is also scheduled to be up against England in two Twenty20 warm-up fixtures in Whangarei.
He is joined in the limited-overs squads by all-rounder Andrew Ellis, set to lead a New Zealand XI against England on Monday and Wednesday at the Cobham Oval.
Also in the Kiwis' Twenty20 squad, for the first time, is Hamish Rutherford - son of former New Zealand Test batsman Ken.
The 23-year-old opener is the only uncapped player to be selected in squads which are still missing front-line seamer Tim Southee while he continues his recovery from a thumb injury.
New Zealand's national selection general manager Kim Littlejohn said: "There are a couple of changes that have been forced through injury, but essentially we want to be seen to provide continuity from one series to the next."
New Zealand Twenty20 squad (v England, starting February 9): B McCullum (captain, wkt), T Boult, I Butler, G Elliott, A Ellis, J Franklin, M Guptill, R Hira, M McClenaghan, N McCullum, C Munro, H Rutherford, R Taylor
New Zealand ODI squad (v England, starting February 17): B McCullum (capt, wkt), T Boult, G Elliott, A Ellis, J Franklin, M Guptill, M McClenaghan, N McCullum, Kyle Mills, C Munro, R Taylor, BJ Watling, K Williamson.

1. What is the UM1 NIH grant activity code?
The UM1 activity code is a research project Cooperative Agreement to support large-scale complex clinical trials with multiple components (e.g., clinical networks). The components represent a variety of supporting functions and are not independent of the research projects. Substantial federal programmatic staff involvement is intended to assist investigators during performance of the research activities, as defined in the terms and conditions of the award.
2. As a foreign investigator, am I permitted to participate in the new Leadership Group for a Clinical Research Network on Antibacterial Resistance?
As stated in the funding opportunity announcement, non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities (foreign institutions) are not eligible to apply as the lead Program Director of the Leadership Group. However, foreign investigators are welcome to participate as a foreign component, as defined in the NIH Grants Policy Statement. Therefore, we encourage you to utilize the research networks and organizations that you collaborate with to seek a partnership with a U.S.-based institution that could serve as the lead Program Director on an application. Your institution could be included as a component of the Leadership Group's overarching research agenda.
3. Can the LG accept independent bids from industry?
Yes, it is possible for the LG to include industrial partners and leverage the resources provided by those sources to accomplish its research agenda.
4. I assume that the page limitations for the components of the research plan for the Leadership Group for a Clinical Research Network on Antibacterial Resistance (UM1) FOA (i.e., research overview-30 pages; Leadership and Operations Center (LOC)-30 pages; Laboratory Center (LC)-12 pages, Statistics and Data Management Center (SDMC)-12 pages) replaces the Research Strategy section in the research plan instructions of the PHS 398? Is that correct?
Yes, that is correct.
5. In addition, the following sections must also be addressed in an application for the AR Leadership Group FOA, which DO NOT have page limits, correct?5. Bibliography and References Cited/Progress Report Publication List6. Protection of Human Subjects7. Inclusion of Women and Minorities8. Targeted/Planned Enrollment Table9. Inclusion of Children10. Vertebrate Animals11. Select Agent Research12. Multiple PD/PI Leadership Plan13. Consortium/Contractual Arrangements14. Letters of Support (e.g., Consultants)15. Resource Sharing Plan(s)
Yes, you are correct that we expect to see these sections addressed as well, and there are no stated page limits for these sections. However, these sections should include only the information requested, and should not be used as a repository for information that will not fit within the page limits of the other sections of the application. In addition, please note that with regard to item 5 on the list, Bibliography and References Cited/Progress Report Publication List, there is no Progress Report for a new application.
6. Should there be a Preliminary Studies section, and do the references cited for that section fall within the page limits of the Research Plan?
There should be a Preliminary Studies section (as part of the Approach) which may have some reference citations, and these would fall outside of the stated page limits for that section of the application. The Form 398 instructions say specifically that "The references should be limited to relevant and current literature. While there is not a page limitation, it is important to be concise and to select only those literature references pertinent to the proposed research."
7. Are there page limitations for personal bibliographies of key investigators?
Personal bibliographies of Key Personnel are limited by the instructions and page limits for the Biosketch sections of the application. Each Biosketch is limited to four pages. Regarding peer-reviewed publications within the biosketch the instructions say "NIH encourages applicants to limit the list of selected peer-reviewed publications or manuscripts in press to no more than 15. Do not include manuscripts submitted or in preparation."
8. I understand there was a webinar for the Leadership Group for a Clinical Research Network on Antibacterial Resistance funding opportunity in March but I missed it. Is it still possible to view the webinar?
Yes, the webinar, which provides information on scientific and administrative issues related to this funding opportunity, is still accessible through the NIH Videocasting and Podcasting website at this link: http://videocast.nih.gov/Summary.asp?File=17143.
9. Would an application focused on TB be responsive to the NIAID antibacterial resistance Leadership Group funding opportunity?
Yes, provided that the application focuses on the antibacterial resistance aspects of TB and addresses the scientific scope of the RFA, which is to design, prioritize, implement and manage an integrated, clinical research program that could lead to the treatment or reduction of AR. It is expected that data arising from these studies would have application to management and control of TB in the United States.
10. I am confused about how the antibacterial resistance trials network is to be incorporated into the NIAID Clinical Trials Network. Is response to RFA-AI-12-018 and subsequent participation as a CTU in the HIV-associated networks the only opportunity to participate as a CRS/CTU in the antibacterial trials network? Will there be an additional RFA coming out for sites that wish to participate only in the antibacterial trials network?
NIAID does not plan to issue an additional RFA to support clinical sites that would exclusively serve the new antibacterial resistance Leadership Group. The AR LG may access patients through appropriate NIAID CTU sites or through other NIAID-supported clinical research sites (e.g., Vaccine and Treatment Evaluation Units). In addition, the LG may opt to obtain access to appropriate specialized populations necessary to carry out the proposed research agenda via subcontract (LG-affiliated site).
As articulated in the RFA, applicants should assume that up to $10 million in total costs will be available per year to carry out the awarded research agenda through the AR LG, and should develop their research plan and budget accordingly. DMID is also prepared to provide up to $7.5 million in-kind support for use of existing NIAID resources, e.g., data management and other appropriate NIAID-supported clinical research sites, such as those noted above. The final determination of sites and in-kind DMID support to be used for each approved clinical trial will be made in collaboration with NIAID/DMID post award.
11. The budget table is requested in terms of direct costs and total direct costs (pg. 12), but in other areas it refers to $10M/yr. as "total costs," which implies direct plus indirect. We have been assuming that the $10M would include indirect costs but wanted to confirm.
Yes, the $10 million covers both direct and indirect costs, including any consortia direct and indirect costs.
12. The budget table (pg. 12) requests costs for the "functional components" LOC, LC, SDMC only. In other areas (pg. 5) it describes the performance sites who will implement the agenda as "separately awarded NIAID-supported clinical research sites," and pg. 28 reads that NIAID will "lead the negotiation of Clinical Trials Agreements" with network investigators. This implies that NIAID will support the sites outside of the $10M/year network funds. Is this correct?
Yes. See the answer to question 8 for additional information.
13. If NIAID will support the sites outside of the $10M/year network funds, does this support cover all costs for implementation of the proposed studies at the sites and the $10M/year is to be used only for running the network infrastructure (protocol development, network oversight, data/stats/monitoring for low resource studies, lab, QC, etc.)?
No, not necessarily. See the answer to question 8 for additional information.
14. If it is true that NIAID supports the sites beyond the $10M/year, do the sites have to either be in an existing network (e.g., VTEUs), win one of the upcoming CTU awards or can we request that NIAID contract with some "fee for service" type sites that specialize in only one area, rather than being an integral part of a related network?
When developing an application, applicants must include specific clinical research studies and trials that support the research agenda proposed. Applicants should assume that up to $10 million in total costs will be available per year to carry out the research agenda through the LG, and should develop their research plan and budget accordingly. The LG may opt to obtain access to appropriate specialized populations necessary to carry out the proposed research agenda via subcontract. DMID is also prepared to provide up to $7.5 million in-kind support for use of existing NIAID resources, e.g., data management and other appropriate NIAID-supported clinical research sites. If you propose use of existing NIAID-supported clinical research sites in the application, their use must be justified. The final determination of sites and in-kind DMID support to be used for each approved clinical trial will be made in collaboration with NIAID/DMID post-award.
15. Is this proposal supposed to provide a scientific agenda or the capacity to support a clinical network, or both?
It is both. It will depend upon the research agenda and resource level of the studies proposed.
16. We have questions about the level of support and options for the high resource studies. We assume EMMES is the group that will be providing NIAID-funded activities for data/monitoring/stats for the high resource studies. Any flexibility there? It is stated that NIAID will ultimately determine which studies are high and low resource but that will obviously have a large impact on the budget and number of studies we can propose. Do you have any idea how this process will work?
When developing an application, applicants must include specific clinical research studies and trials that support the research agenda proposed. Applicants should indicate a resource level (high or low) for each clinical study and trial proposed and a brief justification for the designated resource level. The budget should reflect the resource levels proposed. After award, the final determination of resource level will be done in collaboration with NIAID staff, as allowed for under the cooperative agreement mechanism.
We recommend that you visit NIAID Leadership Group for a Clinical Research Network on Antibacterial Resistance, which provides additional information and examples of high and low resource studies and trials.
The NIAID Statistical and Data Coordinating Center (SDCC) active at the time a study is initiated will be the group that conducts related services for high resource trials.
17. For high-resource projects, who pays the effort on the key personnel who are PIs on the trial but who also happen to be supported members of the Leadership Group? In other words, DMID provides data management, site auditing, CRF design, etc., but who pays personnel costs on the high-resource project: Leadership Group or DMID?
In the event the awarded research agenda includes a study or trial that requires patient populations that may be accessed through the NIAID-funded clinical networks, for example the Vaccine and Treatment Evaluation Units or the HIV/AIDS Clinical Trials Units or Clinical Research Sites, the DMID Program Official can assist the Leadership Group in securing necessary arrangements to conduct the study or trial. Under this scenario, NIAID will cover the cost at the sites of the study or trial up to the amount referenced above.
In the instance that the LG Principal Investigator is also the Principal Investigator of another NIAID clinical research network that will be utilized to carry out the LG research agenda, personnel-related costs will be apportioned in accordance with contract and grant requirements.

43 Dallas ISD campuses make list of state's worst-performing schools
New: Read the full DMN story on the PEG list here.
The dreaded list that no school wants to be on is out.
The Texas Education Agency has released the annual PEG list, which labels campuses making the list as the worst in the state. It also gives students the right to transfer to other campuses under the state's Public Education Grant program.
Dallas ISD has 43 schools on the list, up slightly from last year's count of 42. Houston ISD, the state's largest district, has 26 schools on the list. Fort Worth ISD has 29 schools on the list, while Austin ISD has 10.
Statewide, the number of schools making the list is up about 65 percent — to 566 campuses from 369 last year.
The increase likely can be contributed to the state eliminating the controversial Texas Projection Measure this year. The measure gave schools credit for students who failed the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills but were projected to pass in future years.
Schools make the PEG list if the school received the state's lowest rating, "academically unacceptable," in 2011, 2010 or 2009, or if 50 percent or more of their students fail any parts of the TAKS in any two of the preceding three years (2011, 2010 or 2009). So it is possible for a school that does not currently have a low rating to be on the list.
School districts are not required to provide transportation for students who elect to transfer to other schools under the PEG program. That could be why few DISD students in recent years have elected to transfer to better performing campuses.
DISD spokesman Jon Dahlander stated in an e-mail that "only about 170 Dallas ISD students out of an eligible 35,000 students, or roughly less than one-half of one percent, are on PEG transfers this year."
Dahlander also stated that "being named a PEG school does not tell the whole story."
"There are many excellent teachers, successful students and solid academic programs at the schools identified as PEG schools," he said in the e-mail. "One such example is the International Baccalaureate program at Woodrow Wilson High School."
Dahlander also said that some media outlets annually misinterpret the meaning of the list.
"It is simply provided to parents with information so that they can make decisions and explore additional opportunities for their children," he said.

In The Same Boat
When the cruise ship pulled into port, the passengers got off as quickly as possible. They had spent the last few days enduring an outbreak of a virus, and hundreds of people had been sickened. One passenger, interviewed as he disembarked, said: "Well, I don't mean to complain so much. I mean I know everybody was in the same boat." His seemingly unintentional pun made the reporter smile.
Without Power
In late October 2012, a hurricane-spawned superstorm struck the heavily populated northeastern US, leaving massive flooding and destruction in its wake. During the storm, more than 8 million customers lost electricity. Power outages alone caused shortages of food, fuel, and water, along with the chaos of gridlocked transportation. The howling winds and surging waters left many neighborhoods crushed, flooded, and choked with mountains of sand. Media coverage of the event reported: "Millions Without Power."
Numbered Days
In the aftermath of a devastating tornado, a man stood outside what was left of his home. Scattered somewhere among the rubble inside were his wife's jewelry and his own valuable collectibles. But the man had no intention of going inside the unstable house to search for them. "It's not worth dying for," he said.
Peace In Crisis
Ted, one of the elders in our church, used to be a police officer. One day after responding to a report of violence, he said the situation turned life-threatening. A man had stabbed someone and then menacingly turned the blade toward Ted. A fellow officer had taken position and fired his weapon at the assailant as he attacked Ted. The criminal was subdued, but Ted was shot in the crossfire. As he was driven by ambulance to the hospital, he felt deep waves of peace flowing over his soul from the Holy Spirit. Ted felt so tranquil that he was able to offer words of comfort to the law enforcement officer who was emotionally distraught over the crisis.
Friends In The Night
Do you have someone you could call in the middle of the night if you needed help? Bible teacher Ray Pritchard calls these people "2 a.m. friends." If you have an emergency, this kind of friend would ask you two questions: "Where are you?" and "What do you need?"

Lake Wales Little Theatre Presents an Interactive Murder-Mystery 'Dead to The Last Drop'
Published: Thursday, January 10, 2013 at 10:12 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 10, 2013 at 10:12 p.m.
WHAT: "Dead to the Last Drop" at Lake Wales Little Theatre.
ABOUT THE PLAY: For its second adult play of the season, Lake Wales Little Theatre has chosen to produce an interactive murder-mystery comedy — and there could be a different ending every night because the audience chooses "who did it." The crazy cast of characters leads the audience through a maze of funny twists and turns. There are four possible killers and four possible endings. Caf� Caffeine is a popular coffee house and used bookstore where a murder takes place. A treasury agent on the scene when the murder happens takes over until the police arrive. During the course of the evening, the audience is invited to interrogate suspects. The cast mingles with the audience during intermission, giving spectators a chance to figure out who did it.
ABOUT THE CAST AND CREW: Director Rob Fritz is an improv veteran (founder of Winter Haven's Out of the Box Improv) and according to him, "the entire third act is improvised, with the audience interrogating the actors and they decide who did it." Curt Whirl stars as Special Agent Robert Luzedski; Pat Schatz plays Ariel Ford, Caf� Caffeine's manager; Phil Hagen is Dr. Bill Kildare; Bethany Malady is Miranda De Vere; Jodi Archer is flamboyant waitress Clarice Page and Robby Hartley is chess champion Tully Mansley.
WHEN: The production runs Today through Jan. 27. Friday and Saturday performances are at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday performances at 2 p.m. There is an extra performance Jan. 24 at 7:30 p.m.
WHERE: Lake Wales Little Theatre, 411 N. Third St., Lake Wales.
TICKETS: Adults $12, ages 18 and younger $9.
CONTACT: Weekday box office is at Cliff's True Value Hardware, 101 E. Park Ave., downtown Lake Wales, Monday through Friday, 863-676-7278. Tickets also available at the door prior to performances.

Add the garlic, mint and orange zest, reduce the heat to medium-high and cook for 3 minutes. Gently stir in the salt, pepper and orange pieces, mix well and cook for 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish and the zucchini is ready to serve.
Chef's Tip:
Orange or lemon zest should be removed from the fruit just shortly before cooking. The zest is rich in oils that dissipate quickly and are lost if allowed to sit too long.

The Trails and Rails Museum in Kearney has announced plans to build a "family history center" on adjacent land.
The $3.1 million building would house artifacts, offices, space for traveling exhibits, a conference room and a gift shop.
The museum board of directors hopes to break ground in September and open the building in early 2014.
Board chairman Gary Straatmann said Thursday that the structure's working title is the "family history center." He says the museum is "becoming the place where people want to donate family history."

Offaly boss Emmet McDonnell targets Division 3 safety
Updated: Friday, 31 Jan 2014 10:45 | Comments
- Martin McHugh and Dessie Dolan with an in-depth preview of the Allianz National Football League
- Colin Regan, GAA Communities and Health manager, talks about the off field challenges facing GAA players
- Benny Tiernan and Ray Silke discuss disciplinary problems of the football field
- Páraic Duffy speaks to Brian Carthy about the major issues facing the GAA ahead of his report to Congress
- FRC chairman Eugene McGee and black card critic Aidan O'Rourke debate the new rule
Offaly manager Emmet McDonnell will be happy to keep his side in Division 3 of the Allianz Football League, saying that it's too soon to look for promotion.
McDonnell took over the reins in August 2012 and led the Faithful County out of Division 4 in his first term in charge.
The Faithful County then put up a spirited showing against Kildare in the Leinster Championship before ending their season with a heavy defeat to Tyrone in the qualifiers.
They begin life in the third tier away to Wexford on Sunday.
"Realistically, we are hoping to retain our status so that in 12 months we can build a team and challenge for promotion," McDonnell told the Midland Tribune.
"Teams tend to yo-yo back up and down from Division 4. We are hoping to avoid that.
"It is a very difficult game. It would be difficult at a neutral venue, but t is that much harder in Wexford Park. We are not under any illusions about what we are facing."

HMDG has started its search for an executive director. Spearheading the effort is Jonathan Maloyed, assisted by Don Pratt, David Friedman and Susie Kenedy.
Also aiding in the search is Linda Lowes, who said the search effort includes advertisements in today's Standard Democrat as well as contacting area university job placement programs.
"We need a very dynamic, energetic self-starter for this position," said Lowes. "We are looking for someone who works well with merchants, developers and community leaders."
The goal of HMDG is to revitalize downtown, making it a viable location for retail, restaurants and professional offices, according to Lowes. To do this, she said, they are looking for an individual able to work with merchants on promotions and coordinate with the Chamber of Commerce and Convention and Visitors Bureau to bring tours to the downtown area.
Also the new executive director would work with the streetscape project. Lowes said this involves not just the restoration of the area's brick streets but also improvements in sidewalks and lighting.
The streetscape project would beautify the downtown area by recreating "that old-time charm" and making use of the assets already there, Lowes said.
A not-for-profit organization, the Historic Midtown Development Group Inc. was formed to promote revitalization of Downtown Sikeston using the nationally recognized "Main Street Approach." According to Maloyed, in other communities successfully using the Main Street program, those directing them typically have a strong background in historic preservation and in grant writing.
Already, HMDG was awarded over $67,000 in Neighborhood Assistance Program Tax Credits from the Missouri Department of Economic Development. This money is to be for administrative purposes, Maloyed said.
Grant funding is being sought through the Missouri Department of Transportation for streetscape improvements. Additionally, a low-interest loan program has been introduced for Downtown merchants and property owners.
"We are looking for a self-motivated individual who has a passion for our purpose in revitalizing downtown," said Maloyed. "A person who would help provide direction for our organization to help us go forward and meet our landmark goals."
A Dec. 1 deadline is set by the committee for resumes. Maloyed said the committee will then review these and, hopefully, begin interviews.
Maloyed and Lowes agreed the search for the director is just another step in many months of hard work by a core group of property owners, merchants and city and Chamber officials. Both also pointed out the recent success of events organized by HMDG, such as the Oct. 28 "Halloween Family Fun Day."
The addition of a director, they said, would enable the efforts to continue to move forward.
"We realize all this can't be done overnight," said Lowes. "But we want a dedicated full-time person who can help us move upward and improve on everything Downtown."

The Good Morrow
by John Donne
Analysis: Speaker
Our speaker today is (we assume from the context clues) a boy who, if we can read between the lines—or should we say, sheets?—just spent a night of nonstop scoring with his lady friend. But now it's a new day and this dude has turned from sexy fun times to sober meditations. He's philosophizing about true love and why it's all-consuming, how it has a tendency to wipe out the rest of the world and make you content to stare into your lover's eyes.
Donne never wrote from a woman's perspective, and "The Good Morrow" is no exception. But this speaker is all about union and connection. In essence, he seems to be in love with love. In fact, he even gets down with this soul-binding on a sound level. The whole first stanza is positively littered with "we" sounds. Head over to "Sound Check" for the deets.

Police Officer
We don't know too many fame-obsessed police officers. In fact, you'll probably stay as far away from the spotlight as possible. That is, of course, unless you're angling to parlay your law enforcement expertise into a Hollywood movie adviser gig. Or perhaps you're angling to star in the movie yourself.
Here are some other ways you might become famous: arrest a high-profile criminal on the FBI's "Most Wanted" List; tackle a purse-snatcher who's just nabbed a Hollywood celebrity's designer bag; or break up an outrageous altercation with no injuries but with plenty of tabloid value. If you can't see yourself in any of those scenarios, fame will probably continue to elude you. And most police officers would be perfectly happy with that. They have chosen this career to help their community, not to sign autographs and pander to the press.

I'm using the Foto theme by Satyra version 0.0.2, I am brand new to WordPress, I don't have a very strong background in html, I recently imported my blog content from blogger. All of my posts and photos imported properly. When I downloaded the Foto theme you can see a large centered main image and smaller images for posts below. On my site, none of the images are showing up.
Is there any easy way to edit themes without html? I found the option to make a few generic customizations (color, font, etc) but it doesn't give you many other options besides that.

Getting off the ship is a cluster if you didn't take a shore excursion. We waited in the designated room and got a number. We were told 15 minutes and it took 35, then they announced general boarding (i.e. anyone can go) so we ended up fighting for a place on the boat with everyone who was just hanging around.
We have been to this port a few times... worth taking the tender in for a nice boat ride. Grab a couple of beers and walk around the shops and take the tender back. Nothing special really there unless you do a tour.
This is a price fixed turd of a port. You want a beer in Cozumel, which is just a short distance from Costa Maya, you are talking a dollar or maybe two dollars. In Costa Maya that beer will run you 6 bucks plus 18 percent tax. There is a pool with a swim up bar... the pool is all tile and the tiles are all falling off. The water is freezing. All the shops are price fixed with the exception of a few local style places selling T shirts and other trinkets.
In Costa Maya either take an overpriced excursion or better yet... stay on the ship and enjoy the peace. We went back early and had the pool and slides to pretty much ourselves.
If you go to Cozumel go to Ponchos Backyard for Margaritas and a great snack. We have gone every time and it never lets us down!
Prices for Alcohol, goods, etc. are almost always the best at this port as well. The competition is fierce in Cozumel for all the excursions, goods, etc. so it is hard to choose what to do and you likely will never be let down.
Roatan has two ports. Mahogany Bay and 'the other one'. We have been to the other one, which is smaller, 2 times and it is ok. Mahogany Bay is pure paradise. Probably the most beautiful place I have ever been to. You can take a air lift chair to the beach for 12 bucks per person or walk... I suggest walking. There is a nature trail that isn't hard to navigate even in flip flops and is stunning the whole way with many places to sit. It is only a 15-20 minute stroll even with the nature trail.
The beach, water, etc. are all just straight out of a Corona Commercial. EXCEPT. There are 7000 people on the beach with room for 3000. It is PACKED. If I had known I would have booked a private cabana. Even if the cabana is a couple hundred bucks... worth it. It took us 30 minutes to secure 2 beach chairs. The people next to us 'sold' their chairs to a family for 40 bucks. It is literally so packed people were buying free beach chairs off of other cruisers!
This is another price fixed port. Beers will run you 4.75 each as an example.

After starting as the lofty brainchild of a pair of journalism majors at Nebraska, Corn Fed Sports has taken major strides to become a digital alternative for Husker sports coverage, and we don't have any plans to let up soon.
As a full service digital outlet covering Nebraska sports, we are a group of forward thinking student journalists, who see a sports media world where traditional media takes a backseat to news, video and other visual content directly to your mobile or other laptop device. We're digital natives, and we think that gives us the perfect perspective to provide you with one-of-a-kind Husker coverage and content.
Let's face it, the way sports fans take in the game has changed. And at the same time, those developing social media channels also give smaller sports a center stage they've never had before. That's why it's our mission at Corn Fed Sports to provide you in-depth coverage on ALL of the happenings in Huskerville, rather than just beating the same drum of football, football, football and an occasional check-in with coach Miles.
It's a new era for ALL Husker sports and we're here to bring you a front seat view of what's to come for Nebraska athletics. Strap in folks, the ride is only beginning.

August Heat and Humidity Return This Week: Weather Journal
After a bright and clear weekend, Monday's weather will be mostly cloudy and slow to clear.
Sunday evening's scattered showers will dry up overnight, leaving behind a gray and dry start to the workweek. A few breaks in the clouds are possible, especially in the afternoon, but expect overcast skies to dominate the day. The mild fall-like temperatures we've experienced for the past week are apt to linger in the tri-state area a little bit longer, although the mercury is finally on the rise. Monday's temperatures will be close to normal for mid-August, meaning a high in the low 80s for most parts of the region and right around 80 for those along the shore. Nighttime cloudiness will keep temperatures in the upper 60s in the New York City metro area and in the lower 60s elsewhere.
Don't be fooled by the recent spate of below normal temperatures and northwest winds–summer isn't over yet. The high-pressure system that's responsible for this cooler weather will travel south and then out to sea early this week, resulting in warmer, more humid conditions around Greater New York. As summer makes a comeback, we'll see a number of sunny days and, on Wednesday or Thursday, the first 90-degree day of August. The good news is that heat indices should stay below 95 all week, so we're not likely to be blistered by heat like we were at the end of July.
Monday's Greater New York forecast roundup:
- WSJ Headquarters in Manhattan:
- Actual High: 81; RealFeel High: 85
- Actual Low: 67; RealFeel Low: 64
- Weather: Mostly cloudy and dry
- Brooklyn: 80/67
- Queens: 80/68
- Bronx: 81/68
- Staten Island: 80/67
- Poughkeepsie, N.Y.: 83/59
- Trenton, N.J.: 78/62
- Islip, Long Island: 80/64

Since 1830, true osmosis between the cook and his stove
will make of Lyon the world capital of the gastronomy.
Our famous "Mères Lyonnaises" already
prepare dishes of simple perfection, odorous, simmered,
admirable; they are still the muses of today's famous
Perpetuating traditions, concerned about protecting
the authenticity or only waiting to rediscover the old
time flavours, Delaubrac stoves inspire quite beautiful
Nostalgia of preparations simmering during hours on the
cooker, pictures where colours and voluptuous smells are
mixing exciting all our senses.
It is in this spirit of good taste, care brought to the
quality and of the "savoir vivre" that the Delaubrac
range of cookers was elaborated.
The Delaubrac stoves are the association of aesthetics,
charm of our grandmothers' cookers and contemporary technology
based on our experience and our mastery of the greatest
chefs' requirements.
Thus, when you cook with a Delaubrac stove, it is with
the spirit of the greatest chefs that you work with, because
at all the stages of its elaboration, your cooker is really
the piano de chefs.

MUTARE — Two men died in separate incidents in Manicaland province two weeks ago after drinking too much alcohol including a home-made brew commonly known as kachasu.
Police confirmed both incidents.
In the first incident, Hardson Marwizi (61) of Mutasa district left his homestead to visit a friend where he spent the whole day drinking kachasu without taking any food.
While still at the friend's house, Marwizi started complaining of hunger and began breathing heavily.
Sensing danger, his friend ran to Marwizi's homestead and alerted his wife about his condition.
Marwizi's wife tried to help him by giving him some porridge.
This however failed to save his life.
In the second case, Brighton Svodza of Chikanga in Mutare died in the comfort of his bed after allegedly drinking 750ml of an illegally imported cane spirit.
The cane spirit, which is smuggled from Mozambique, has a 40% alcohol content.
Manicaland police spokesperson, Inspector Enock Chishiri said Svodza (39) arrived home very drunk carrying a near empty container of the cane spirit.
He was served with supper by his wife, Auxillia (30) but refused to eat.
"At around 2100hrs, the couple retired to bed but Svodza's wife woke up at around 0215 and discovered that her husband was no longer breathing," said Chishiri.
Svodza was rushed to Mutare Provincial Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
Police said preliminary investigations suggested that he could have died of alcohol poisoning.
Chishiri appealed to members of the public to desist from alcohol abuse saying it was hazardous to their health.
"We appeal to members of the public not to abuse alcohol because some of the brews are dangerous and are hazardous to health if consumed to excess," said Chishiri. "Members of the public are warned that it is illegal to brew illicit beers in their backyards."
Experts said most people were abusing alcohol to relieve themselves of stress brought about by the economic challenges prevailing in the country.
'illicit brews cheap'
A snap survey by Standardcommunity in Mutare's high-density suburbs and peri-urban areas established that a lot of people were resorting to illicit brews and banned cane spirits smuggled from neighbouring Mozambique.
The people said they preferred to buy smuggled cane spirits because of their high alcohol content and their cheap price.
"I would need less than US$2 to get drunk whereas I would need about US$15 if I choose to take lagers," said one man, who only identified himself as Bla Diva.
The potent brews, which are very popular with unemployed youths, are usually sold in shebeens in the town's high-density areas.
Presently, unemployment tops 85%. Most companies in Mutare are operating at very low capacity while others have since closed shop.

Early 16th century (denoting a cannonball): from French boulet, boulette 'small ball', diminutive of boule, from Latin bulla 'bubble'.
bulletin from mid 17th century:
The word bulletin derives from Italian bulletta meaning 'official warrant or certificate'—something like a passport today. The root is the Italian and medieval Latin word bulla 'seal, sealed document', the source of bill meaning 'written statement of charges' and of bull meaning 'papal edict'. The original Latin meaning of bulla was 'bubble', and this is the basis of bowl (Old English) in the sense 'ball' and ultimately 'basin' and of budge (late 16th century) which comes via French bouger 'to stir', from Latin bullire 'boil, bubble', bullet (early 16th century) originally a small ball, bullion (Middle English) from the idea of bubbling metal, and ebullient (late 16th century) 'bubbling'.

Mississippi County Commission news
CHARLESTON -- Maintenance related to safety issues is needed at the Mississippi County airport.
County commissioners reviewed a letter from the Missouri Department of Transportation during their regular meeting which advised county officials that a safety and compliance inspection was conducted Sept. 12 for the Federal Aviation Administration by MoDOT.
The letter, signed by Jason Knipp, airport safety inspector, notes several conditions that do not conform to FAA regulations, standards and recommendations for airports, many of which were noted in previous inspections.
"It was unfortunate to arrive at the airport and discover that conditions had not been improved since the previous inspection in 2004," Knipp wrote. He advised "corrective action is needed to ensure a safer airport environment."
"We've got some trees and stuff we need to get down," Commissioner Homer Oliver said.
The letter also advises of crops planted too close to the runway, Oliver noted.
"They've farmed it like that for a hundred years," Commissioner Martin Lucas said.
Knipp also noted that "all pavement at the airport is in very poor condition, especially the apron."
Other discrepancies listed in the letter include: missing markings; visual glide slope indicators in poor condition that appear to not be in operation; runway lighting not in accordance with standards; improperly spaced threshold lights at runway ends; depressions around edge lights and reflectors from the use of chemicals to control grass which can collect water and attract birds; a beacon that is not rotating; tall grass and weeds; and two large cylindrical objects lying on the west side of the runway.
Also, as the airport no longer provides fuel for the public, the fuel housing area next to the runway needs to be removed.
"To help your airport achieve reduced liability and become a safer facility, all items listed above should be corrected using FAA criteria," Knipp wrote.
Knipp advised findings will be sent to the FAA.
Oliver said commissioners will wait for Presiding Commissioner Jim Blumenberg, who was unable to attend Thursday's meeting, to review the letter before making any decisions.
In other business Thursday:
* Lucas said a drainage pipe near the Towasahgy State Historic Site at Dorena has washed out and needs to be replaced.
"We'll have to get the water out before we put a pipe in," he said.
* Commissioners discussed recent storms. Oliver said he can't recall the last time the county got 14 inches of rain in September.
"Water moved as well as it could under the circumstances," he said, adding that the Mississippi River was down which helped some.
Other than some downed trees, the county didn't sustain a whole lot of damage from Wednesday's storm, Oliver said. "It could surely have been a lot worse," he said.
Lucas said he figured the county had 33 billion gallons of water from rain in the last 24 hours.
Oliver agreed it was "a tremendous volume of water" that the county's drainage system had to deal with.
County road and bridge crews were out all day Saturday responding to conditions caused by the storm, Oliver said.
* Lucas said contractors for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers have started preparing the site where a cofferdam will be built for construction of the St. John's Bayou-New Madrid Floodway Project's pumping station.
"The trees are going down," he said. "They're going to work."
* County officials were advised of no findings or recommendations following the single audit by Brown and Thomas CPAs, according to Emily Pullen, deputy county clerk.

The UWBCA exists to educate coaches, honor student athletes, and facilitate networking. Additionally, we provide a unified voice for Women's High School Basketball Programs. We accomplish these goals through our Annual Coach's Clinic and Senior All-Star Games, as well as strategic relationships with the press and the UHSAA.
Women's Athletics have faced many challenges over the years and we aim to be a positive partner in bettering the game for girls and future student athletes. Thank you for your support.
"A girl's basketball coaches association was actually Phil Russell's idea (Ogden coaching legend). The association officially became an entity when Mae Miya and I met at the Village Inn in Woods Cross to brainstorm the structure of the association. We held a couple of coaching clinics with some of our great local college coaches presenting. The first year attendance was Mae, Shauna Kay and me. Mae and I kept meeting at the Village Inn in Woods Cross (no email yet!). After four years, we decided to pass the torch to others. Attendance has ebbed and flowed over the years. Now, as I attend the UWBCA coaching clinics, I am pleased to see the organization and effort of the directors, the number of coaches in the stands and their serious efforts to learn how to best teach this ever-evolving game."
Here's to the next 20 years of the UWBCA!

The American Revolution
The American Revolution Books
A Pulitzer-Prize winning book from one of the Revolution's biggest fans. Wood argues that America's was indeed a radical Revolution, within its context. The book seeks to couch the events of the 1760s and '70s (and thereafter) in a much broader political, social, and cultural context so that you can understand what the Western world was like before, during, and after the American war for independence.
A highly acclaimed work of history that studies a specific part of the world (Virginia) during the Revolution but offers some very intriguing re-interpretations of how seemingly powerless groups like poor white farmers, slaves, and Indians all had pivotal influence on the gentry's decision to lead the charge for independence.
An extremely readable, entertaining account of the war's beginning.
A fantastic narrative history of the conflict from a preeminent historian.
Another Pulitzer Prize winner, and a very accessible and engaging account of the pivotal year of independence, from multiple perspectives.
An examination of the Revolution through women's perspectives as Kerber thoroughly researched them in diaries, letters, and legal records.

Technical Abstract: The beekeeping industry is critical to many agricultural crops. Recently, an invasive pest, the Small Hive Beetle, was introduced into North America. Beetles invade hives feed on pollen, bee brood, and ruin honey. Thus, the beetle has had a dramatic effect on the $14 billion/year apiculture and pollination industries in the US. We discovered that the beetles are attracted to honeybee alarm pheromones. We also isolated a yeast vectored by the beetles which, when grown on bee collected pollen, produces the bee alarm pheromones. European bees, being responsive to alarm pheromones and less aggressive in repelling intruders than the original host of the beetle, African honeybees, fail to recognize the beetle invasion until it is too late to avoid colony collapse. Using this knowledge we have developed effective monitoring and control programs for the beetle using traps baited with the yeast which produces the attractants. This provides the first demonstration of the use of multitrophic level semiochemical communication in insects to control invasive species.
