Well folks, this is a tough call to make. It's a "Damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation. But here's the decision:
1. We will not race today because the weather is calling for 60% chance of rain this afternoon and we don't want to have another make-up race on our hands for this weekend.
2. We are still planning to run a Test & Tune tonight. Will know more as the day progresses and we can see what the weather brings. Cancelled because of rain.
3. Saturday, 10/05 -- Gates open at 8:30 AM and Time Trials start at 10 AM (no Junior Dragster class) for all classes. We will run the make-up race FIRST. Then the Halloween Classic Race #1 immediately following. There will be Time Trials for the Halloween Classic race. Massive rain caused us to postpone finishing the makeup race until Sunday.
4. Sunday, 10/06 -- Gates open at 9:30 AM and Time Trials start at 11 AM (no Junior Dragster class) for all classes. This will be Halloween Classic Race #2.
We want to get all of our races in and weather-wise, this schedule change appears to be our best chance of getting it done. We hope everyone understands. Thank you!

Gaudian & Eldridge Funeral Home - Paullina, IA - Phone: (712) 448-3820
Cremation in Paullina is the process of reducing dead bodies to basic chemical compounds in the form of gases and bone fragments. This is accomplished through burning- high temperatures, vaporization and oxidation. Cremation may serve as a funeral or post funeral rite that is an alternative to the interment of an intact body in a casket. Cremated remains, which are not a health risk, may be buried or immured in memorial sites or cemeteries, or they may be legally retained by relatives or dispersed in a variety of ways and locations. Cremation is usually done in a crematorium, but some also prefer different methods like open-air cremation.

In the past many years, it's been common to see successful businessmen jumping into the powersports retailing game — so much so, that it's changed the face of what had been an enthusiast-born industry.
Lawyers. Doctors. Accountants. Professionals of all stripes have taken their hard-earned cash (and business acumen) and invested in small and large dealerships.
And then there's Bob Parsons.
You may know of Parsons from his GoDaddy.com fame or from his company's now legendary Super Bowl commercials, but what might be a surprise is that the tech industry giant is also a big-time enthusiast who returned to motorcycling four years ago and has since logged close to 85,000 miles on the road. In 2008 he turned his attention toward powersports retailing and now owns Go AZ Motorcycles, a multifranchise destination in Scottsdale, Ariz., that includes a BMW, Ducati, KTM and Triumph dealership, and a Honda store. So Parsons may be just another businessman-enthusiast-turned-dealer, but he's one who sold his first business — Parsons Technology — for $64 million, and is the sole investor in the Go Daddy Group Inc. family of companies, which saw revenues upward of $497 million in 2008.
To complement his two stores, Parsons has also launched an e-commerce site at www.goaz.com.
Parsons believes he picked a great time to get into the industry, having picked up the franchises he now owns at prices that "we were very happy with," adding that the opportunity likely won't come around again for a very long time. Now he wants to focus on improving customer service, something he believes is lacking in most dealerships. This, he says, is the same tack he took when he built his first company.
"I spent a lot of time looking at that industry," he says. "I've noticed that in this industry now, there are a lot of opportunties where things like customer service and that sort of thing [need to be fixed] and there's some room for somebody to do it differently. "Service has kind of stumbled a bit. Most of the shops are run by people who were enthusiasts at one time or another and maybe are not necessarily good business people. What I've attempted to do was bring good solid business principles to the motorcycle business — at least to my business."
His approach may sound like retailing 101 — having customers interact with employees who know and enjoy the business, offering wide inventories and good pricing, making service available for when the customer needs it — but it's one he says has already earned him some loyal customers. And it's one he's directing toward his e-tailing operations. He launched the e-commerce site this year, using GoDaddy.com's Marketplace as the backbone of the operation and its payment processing services to handle online transactions. The Marketplace is his company's online sales hub launched as a rival to eBay and Amazon.
"Basically what I'm taking is what I've learned at GoDaddy.com and and what I learned at Parsons Technology before that, and transferring that to the online experience for Go AZ shoppers," he says. "The most important thing is anticipating and answering questions that the customers have, and having lots of visuals. When somebody buys something online they can't touch it or feel it. They have to make their buying decisions based on what visuals they see. So the most important thing is to have it very well-presented and to answers questions about size and materials, whatever those questions might be. "There's a convenience in ordering something online, but it's a royal pain in the ass to order something online and not get what you want and then have to go through the hassle of returning it."
The goal is to offer them the right experience to get them to buy the products. The site does this by listing products according to brand, category and rider type (e.g. adventure touring, sport touring, street, off-road/ATV, cruiser and scooter) and posting multiple photos and related videos, and including complete product descriptions and shipping information.
"If you have an e-commerce site and you're selling apparel or certain parts for a bike and you don't have a good visual of that, your likelihood of selling that [product] is down the toilet," he explains.
In addition to offering online all the brands of PG&A he carries in his stores, Parsons says he has the advantage of being able sell the branded gear offered by his OEMs. This interplay between his physical store and his websites also allow in-store customers to order products that can be shipped to their homes.
In the coming months, Parsons says that more products, videos and other functions will be added to his e-commerce site. "Our goal is to be successful in that area," he says. "I don't know if our goal is necessarily to be the biggest, although that has always seemed to happen in my experience."
When asked about the friction that's historically existed between brick-and-mortar stores and Internet sellers, Parsons likened it to the conflict that's always existed between new technology and old traditions. That goes back to when people who had horses had conflicts with people who had cars, he notes. But to compete, retailers are going to have both a physical store and an online presence, he says.
But what of the traditional storefront dealers? Is there still room in the retailing world for them?
"Yeah, I think there is for the less profitable ones," he says. "It's that simple. If you want to have a dealership and you don't care if it's that profitable, be my guest."

CPR Basics
During cardiac arrest, there is no blood flow. Chest compressions create a small amount of blood flow to the vital organs such as the brain and heart - the more effective the chest compressions, the more blood flow is produced. Chest compressions that are too shallow or too slow or chest compressions that are interrupted frequently do not deliver as much blood flow to the brain and heart as effective chest compressions. Every time chest compressions are restarted following an interruption, the first few compressions are not as effective as later compressions. Frequent or prolonged interruptions in chest compressions decrease blood flow and the victim's chance of survival.
CPR may not save the victim even when performed properly, but if started within 4 minutes of cardiac arrest and defibrillation is provided within 10 minutes, a person has a 40% chance of survival.
CPR provides a trickle of oxygenated blood to the brain and heart and keeps these organs alive. In other words, Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) serves as an artificial heartbeat and an artificial respirator until defibrillation can shock the heart into a normal rhythm or emergency equipment arrives.
Remember the CAB's of CPR: Circulation, Airway and Breathing

August 10, 2006
It's a new push to get the African American Community out to vote this November.
Lynnsey Gardner was there as the CSRA Coalition of Black Clergy came together in Augusta.
The ministers say it's time for change on Capitol Hill. They say they want new lawmakers in office who will work to make sure black men have promising futures.
"Over the last three weeks over 38 black men have been arrested for various crimes, basically because they lack education and they lack opportunity," said Reverend K. B. Martin of Antioch Baptist Church in Augusta. "We've got to come together."
And coming together is exactly what they're doing. Today several local black ministers came to Antioch Baptist Church to preview a cross-country tour coming to town next week. Leaders of the revival say it's time to motivate the black community into action.
"It is important for us to develop this strategy, because our young people are dropping out of school," Rev. Martin said. "Our young men are going to prison because many of them do not have marketable skills. The question is, what is the church going to do?"
Local Augusta citizens recognize the crime problem in Augusta and came out to support the churches effort. Viola Elim was one of them.
"They feel as though society has neglected them and they have no hope, and a person without hope has nothing to do," Elim said. "They're idle. They need some motivation."
Elim hopes Rev. Martin's effort to bring the tour to Augusta will help the community.
"They need to be motivated to do something other than commit crimes and stealing."
And Rev. Martin wants everyone to get involved.
"The question is, what are you going to do? When you are finished preaching, when you are finished singing, when you are finished shouting--what are you going to do?" he said. "We got to get out on the streets and reach these young men and tell them there is still hope. If you're willing to accept the opportunities, there is hope."
The tour, named the National Dialogue and Revival for Social Justice in the Black Church, will be in Augusta next Monday and Tuesday. The event will be held at Good Shepherd Baptist Church.
Participants include the Reverend Jesse Jackson, Reverend Al Sharpton, and Congressman John Lewis.

It's a revelation that will surprise exactly no-one, but let's just get it on record anyway: my name is Lynda, and I am a make-up junkie. My condition is long-term – it predates my beauty blogging by about, oh, 10-to-15 years – and it interferes with my day-to-day activities on a regular basis because it means I can't resist the call of a counter or stand, be it in a pharmacy or a department store or a salon supply shop, to save my life.
I like to browse nearly as much as I like to purchase, and yes: I am a bit of a nightmare to steer through duty free.
To make matters worse, I'm also a recovering hoarder. I take it one day at a time and still find it hard to chuck things with even the most tenuous sentimental attachment, but downsizing from a two-bed gaff with deadly built-in storage to a one bed flah earlier in the year has definitely helped with my (gradual) rehabilitation.
In the run up to the move, I got rid of lots of what I can only describe as crap and parted company with clothes, shoes and bags that I don't wear anymore, but predictably the beauty bits suffered only the mildest of pre-move haircuts. And, er, there was no nail polish cull at all.
So when Cakeinthcountry wondered how and where the feck we store all the make-up that we blog about every day, I thought I'd show you how a make-up junkie and beauty writer with a hoarding disorder and a nail polish problem organises her nails shizz.
Originally I liked the idea of keeping my polishes in pretty boxes atop my chest of drawers, but having the boxes on display wrecked my head after a while so I moved them under the bed and then simply used shoe boxes for additional storage as my collection grew. Eventually, I graduated to a small wicker drawer unit in the bathroom for easy access and so that I could see my entire stash at a glance, but a couple of weeks ago when even that was overflowing I decided that it was high time for an upgrade.
One trip to Ikea and just shy of €30 later, I had me an off-white Helmer drawer unit. It's a small six-drawer filing cabinet that's also available in red, and is widely regarded by nail polish bloggers as The Ultimate Holy Grail Storage Solution; I've noticed that lots of salons use it to store polishes, too.
Just some of the stash… and that's only half a drawer's worth
Since it doesn't look like your typical bathroom storage unit, I keep mine in the hallway-cum-living room, tucked fairly unobtrusively between the front door and a credenza, which is handy for me as I usually do my nails in front of the telly and of course it also keeps the bathroom from feeling cluttered. It would look equally at home in a home office space.
Considering how easy it is to put together (I was done in less than 30 minutes), that it seems born to hold nail polish (each drawer is just deep enough to accommodate a standard sized bottle standing upright), and its incredible capacity (I'd guesstimate that it'd hold about 400-to-500 bottles) the Helmer is a bit of a no-brainer solution for anyone with a lot of polish to store. It'll be complete overkill for some people, of course, but I'd definitely recommend a Helmer if you need a dedicated place to hoard keep your collection.

Trouble In Texas: State's Newest Assistant Attorney General Thinks Church-State Separation Is A Myth
Texas' newest assistant state attorney is a longtime foe of Americans United who denies that church-state separation is a constitutional principle.
Texas' newest assistant state attorney is a longtime foe of Americans United who denies that church-state separation is a constitutional principle.
If you have children, there's a good chance you've worked hard to instill in them the values you hold, whether those values are religious or secular.
If you're a Christian, a Jew, a Hindu, a Pagan, a humanist, etc. you probably raised your children in that faith or philosophy. If it was important to you, you likely wanted it to be important to them.
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has announced a new inter-agency initiative to address religious discrimination directed toward minority faith groups.
Amanda Scott is a member of the Americans United for Separation of Church and State's Youth Advisory Council, and like many young activists, she volunteers with multiple organizations.
Amanda's work as a Planned Parenthood clinic escort coalesces with her work at Americans United. Both organizations are working to protect women's access to healthcare from the Religious Right's many attempts to dismantle it.
Although retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson formally ended his campaign for president last week, it seems the Religious Right favorite isn't about to go away anytime soon.
Spare a thought for Roy Moore.
Moore likely thought that as chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court he'd finally have the authority to enforce God's moral law. Theocracy has, after all, been the raison d'etre of his career. But our secular legal system – or Satan, depending on who you ask – has thwarted him at every turn.
The mayor of Virginia's capital city stands accused of diverting city resources toward the church he heads, and he seems to think he can violate the First Amendment while simultaneously claiming that the Constitution shields him from punishment.
Last week, Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane released a damning grand jury report about the rampant sexual abuse of minors by priests in the Altoona-Johnstown Diocese – and the failure of anyone in authority to stop it.
News of the report hit me hard. I was born and raised in Altoona. For 16 years I attended a Catholic church in that diocese. I spent eight years in a Catholic school appended to one of its churches.
A crony of Religious Right pseudo-historian David Barton will not be joining the Texas Supreme Court.
Rick Green, a former Texas state representative and "Christian nation" advocate, narrowly lost his bid for the bench earlier this week to state Supreme Court incumbent Paul Green (no relation). This is at least the second time Rick Green has run unsuccessfully for the positon.
In late February, Elise Helgesen Aguilar, AU's Federal Legislative Counsel, and Erin Taylor, AU's new National Field Director, visited Chapel Hill, North Carolina for a strategy session on combating private school vouchers. Elise and Erin met with members of the Orange-Durham Chapter of Americans United for a working lunch and training session to begin outlining a plan for the upcoming state legislative session (April 25 to June 30, 2016).

Showing dedication for its employees and the environment, Mountain Rose Herbs has earned the 2010 Oregon Ethics in Business award. The award is given out annually to businesses that demonstrate ethical business practices not only in the workplace, but in the marketplace, environment and community.
"We couldn't be more thrilled to win the Oregon Ethics in Business Award because it represents the culmination of hard work and dedication from the entire team at Mountain Rose Herbs, and it proves that a business model which places an emphasis on people and the planet, rather than profit, actually works," Shawn Donnille, vice president of Mountain Rose Herbs, says in a press release.
Mountain Rose Herbs offers employees two paid full days a year to volunteer at local nonprofit organizations. It also gives more than $75,000 annually to 14 different environmental organizations, offering promotions, sponsorships and volunteers.
Mountain Rose Herbs also operates a zero-waste facility, recycling, reusing and composting all of its excess materials. It runs on 100 percent renewable energy sources and prohibits the use of conventional commercial cleaning agents and harmful chemicals to clean its facility. Going a step further, Mountain Rose Herbs also offers employees a small bonus for carpooling to work.
Founded in 1987 in Eugene, Oregon, Mountain Rose Herbs specializes in organic herbs, spices and teas. Its goal is to give more to the environment than it takes, ensuring the fair treatment of the products and those who work to produce them. To protect harvesters and growers, Mountain Rose Herbs established the Good Trade Program: Growers get full negations over their products—including dictating the prices.
Do you know a business that is dedicated to ethical practices? Nominate it for the Oregon Ethics in Business Award.

Without needed reforms that assure that asserted patent rights are legitimate, the ability of businesses owned by REALTORS®, many of which are small businesses, to grow, innovate and better serve modern consumers will be put at risk.
Senators Flake (R-AZ), Gardner (R-CO) and Lee (R-UT) introduced S. 2733 a bill that would address the issue of venue reform in patent litigation cases. . Last year, nearly half of all new patent infringement cases filed in the United States were filed in one judicial district. The high volume of cases filed in this district is not a coincidence. Patent Assertion Entities, otherwise known as patent trolls, take advantage of broad interpretations of current law that allow them to file their lawsuits where local rules and practices, along with physical distance, make it very expensive for companies to defend themselves. NAR supports venue reform along with a comprehensive set of patent litigation reforms aimed at curbing patent troll abuses.
House Judiciary Committee marked up and favorably reported H.R. 9, the Innovation Act. By making important reforms to the nation's patent litigation system, the Innovation Act would address abusive practices by patent trolls that bully American businesses, including many REALTOR®s, with deceptive and often illegitimate claims of patent infringement.

SHEPHERDSTOWN - Construction along W.Va. 480 that separates the east and west sides of Shepherd University might be problematic to some.
It won't be for today's fourth edition of Freedom's Run.
Like a GPS system, race director Dr. Mark Cucuzzella simply rerouted.
Three of the four competitive races will begin on German Street in two, rather than on the Shepherd campus.
From there, the runners in the half marathon, 10-kilomer and 5-kilometer runs will proceed through the campus and then off campus to cross the bridge to race much of the time in Maryland an the historic Civil War areas.
Competitors will still finish on the football turf at Shepherd's Ram Stadium.
The runners will be far removed from the construction zone.
"We start right next to the new town hall," Cucuzzella said, "so we can showcase the new town hall.
"Part of the race is letting people see our small town, meet the people there and see some of the history.
"We got 40 states represented, and we want them to see the town and come back."
The marathon runners will continue to begin their trek northward along the Potomac River by starting in Shepherdstown. For the second year in a row, the race will be 2012 Road Runners Club of America Regional Marathon Championship.
The marathoners start at 7 a.m. and the rest at 8 a.m. Registrations for all but the marathon will still be accepted today.
Cucuzzella expects some 2,500 runners in all for the competitive races and upward of 500 for the children's fun run.
"The real purpose is to introduce new people to running as a lifestyle activity," Cucuzzella said. "The highlight for me is the kids run. Watching 4 to 500 kids running up German Street, that's what it is all about.
"Kids lead the family; the kids kind of draw families in and view running as a run activity, not a workout."
Cucuzzella also pointed out that the race provides benefits to a number of community projects.
They include: the Page Jackson Community Trail and Garden; South Jefferson Elementary Outdoor Classroom and Trail; Driswood Elementary Fitness Trail; the rebuilt T.A. Lowery Elementary Greenhouse ; and financial support for the track at Hedgesville High School now under construction.
Runners should anticipate cool, comfortable running conditions.
The first year the races were run in abysmally hot conditions. Last year, it rained.
After the races finish, runners can retreat to the Bavarian Inn for camaderie and relaxation. An awards assembly will be a part of the postrace festivities.

SEC vs Steve Cohen: Highlights From the SEC's Case
The Securities and Exchange Commission Friday filed a civil-enforcement action against hedge-fund giant Steve Cohen, alleging he failed to supervise his employees, who have themselves been charged with insider trading.
The SEC is seeking to bar Cohen, the head of SAC Capital, one of the biggest hedge funds in the country, from overseeing investor funds. Cohen is not charged with insider trading.
Cohen has said in a statement the SEC's action is without merit and he acted appropriately.
The SEC focuses on two trading incidents already public.
The first is what prosecutors have called the most-lucrative insider trading scheme ever uncovered, in which Mathew Martoma has been charged with earning $275 million in illicit profits and avoided losses by building a position in drugmakers Elan and Wyeth. Martoma, prosecutors allege, was tipped by a doctor involved in the trial, Sidney Gilman. Martoma, who worked for SAC unit CR Intrinsic, has pleaded not guilty and is fighting the charges..
Here are some points from Friday's SEC claim, about Cohen's alleged knowledge of that trade:
Cohen "speculated" that Martoma had inside info: "Cohen speculated that Martoma might have access to material nonpublic information about the clinical trial. By April 2008, Cohen was aware that Martoma and another CR Intrinsic employee had spoken to a doctor who implied he had access to material, nonpublic information about the clinical trial."
Other SAC analysts questioned how Martoma could have known: "Within CR Intrinsic, Martoma claimed to have unique insight into the Phase II Trial. In the words of the Analysts, Martoma claimed to have "black edge" —illicit, nonpublic information."
Cohen "encouraged" Martoma to talk to the doctor despite red flags: "Cohen encouraged Martoma to speak with the doctor who Cohen had been told may have seen Phase II Trial results—information that any reasonable hedge fund manager should have known might be material and nonpublic. Cohen also knew, based on his communications with the Analysts, that Martoma possibly had another inside source on the Phase II Trial."
In the second set of trades at issue Friday, Michael Steinberg of Sigma Capital, another SAC subsidiary, allegedly used insider information about Dell's second-quarter results in 2008. Steinberg allegedly got his information from Sigma Capital analyst Jon Horvath, who in turn got it from a friend who got it from an unnamed "Dell insider" the SEC says worked in investor relations. Steinberg has denied all the charges. Horvath has pleaded guilty and has been cooperating with prosecutors.
Here are some points from Friday's SEC's claim about Cohen's alleged knowledge in that trade:
The setting: "On August 25 and 26, Cohen was working at his vacation home on Long Island, where he had a home office set-up virtually identical to the one in his corporate office … On August 25 at 9:30 a.m., Cohen began purchasing shares of Dell in one of the portfolios he controlled at SAC. By 12:01 p.m., he held a long position of 450,000 shares, at a cost of more than $11 million."
That triggers a series of calls: The suit says that Horvath received an automated email message alerting him that Cohen had taken a long position in Dell while Steinberg was short. Steinberg, the suit alleges, reached out to Cohen who directed Horvath and another portfolio manager who was long Dell to "compare notes before the markets closed that day."
Horvath's email to portfolio manager and Steinberg: [A]t 1:09 p.m., Horvath replied to Portfolio Manager A and copied Steinberg:
I have a 2nd hand read from someone at the company – this is 3rd quarter I have gotten this read from them and it has been very good in the last quarters. They are seeing G[ross] M[argin]s miss by 50-80 [basis points] due to poor mix, op[erating] ex[penses] in-line and a little revenue upside netting out to an [earnings per share] miss. . . . Please keep to yourself as obviously not well known.
The email gets to Cohen: "Four minutes later, at 1:13 p.m., Portfolio Manager A forwarded this email to a SAC employee whose duties included forwarding to Cohen trading-related information worthy of Cohen's attention. … At 1:37 p.m., the Research Trader called Cohen on his cell phone. The call lasted 48 seconds. … At 1:39 p.m., Cohen began selling shares of Dell. By 3:49 p.m., Cohen had sold his entire Dell position."
Cohen sends his congrats: "Three hours after Dell's announcement, Cohen emailed Steinberg: 'Nice job on Dell.'"
UPDATE: An earlier version of this post incorrectly spelled Mathew Martoma's first name.

Grilled Pacific Spot Prawns in Lemon-Oregano Dressing
Created and presented by
Myra Kornfeld
Grilled Pacific Spot Prawns in Lemon-Oregano Dressing
For this Mediterranean-style recipe, Pacific spot prawns are marinated with the shells on and then grilled.
The shells not only help the marinade soak into the prawns as they grill, but they help keep the prawns from overcooking.
Marinade no more than 15 minutes, to keep the texture of the prawns firm. To eat, peel back the shell and drizzle with a little reserved dressing.
Serves 6
2 pounds
Wild Pacific Spot Prawns
4 large garlic cloves
3/4 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Answer: DU believes that it is important for today's children to understand the value of wetlands and the many species of wildlife that depend upon them. For this reason, in 1973 DU started the DU youth program. It is called Greenwings after the Green-winged teal, the smallest of our waterfowl. The Greenwing program is for members 17 years old and younger. Today's youth will be tomorrow's leaders. Through education, we hope to make tomorrows leaders advocates for wetland conservation.
Answer: Puddler is an online magazine published four times a year and made available to Greenwing members 12 years or younger online. A Greenwing membership is $15 annually. Senior Greenwing members, ages 12 through 17, receive the regular Ducks Unlimited Magazine.
Log in and view Puddler here.
Answer: Greenwing members can send material to: Puddler Magazine, One Waterfowl Way, Memphis, TN 38120. Keep in mind that we have 60,000 Puddler Greenwing members, and space for children's artwork is limited. Most of the online magazine's space is devoted to educating Greenwings in a fun way about wetlands and wetland wildlife.
Answer: Many of our 3,500 DU chapters nationwide hold Greenwing events that include such things as waterfowl identification, duck calling, dog training demonstrations, archery, fishing, and conservation education programs. Check with our membership department at 1-800-45-DUCKS.

The Road
by Cormac McCarthy
The Road Theme of Love
For all the violence and gore in The Road, there's a beautiful love story at its center. Given a post-apocalyptic setting, you might be imagining tough guys and scantily-clad women. Instead, we get a surprisingly tender story about a father and son. In the novel, love survives in the midst of a chaotic, barbaric world. McCarthy also sets some pretty high standards for love: these characters care for each other with a level of self-sacrifice and compassion that we usually only see in saints. Granted, love is mostly limited to the family unit here. But perhaps the isolation of the characters makes love even rarer and more precious.
Questions About Love
- Before The Man and The Boy start out on the road, The Woman commits suicide. She believes The Man and The Boy should kill themselves too, since it won't be long before gangs of evil men rape and kill them. Do you believe The Woman loves The Boy? How is her love for The Boy different from The Man's? Is one better than the other?
- In his interview in The Wall Street Journal, Cormac McCarthy says that everyday conversations with his son John made it "verbatim" into the book. What effect do you think this has on the novel, especially since the setting is so distant from our ordinary experience?
- Near the end of the novel, The Man whispers to The Boy, "I will not send you into the darkness alone" (339.1). Soon after, The Man dies, but he doesn't kill The Boy, even though leaving him alone in the post-apocalyptic wasteland amounts to sending him "into the darkness alone." Why does The Man change his mind?
- Neither The Boy nor The Man ever says "I love you." Why would McCarthy leave this out?

As a lifelong lover of snow, I remember how cool it seemed on Dec. 18 when this winter's first major snowstorm hit us.
I was off from work that day in order to get a tooth pulled. I actually went in early for the appointment at the request of the oral surgeon and his staff, who wanted to escape ahead of the predicted storm.
Are you enjoying all the winter? I've had to shovel global warming out of my driveway two weekends in a row, and what we got the last time was nothing compared with what folks in other parts of the Commonwealth experienced.
How about those high heating bills? I know one lady who lives in Bedford County who had an electricity bill that topped $500 for a month. She and her husband aren't heating Al Gore's mansion, either. They live in a doublewide.
RICHMOND – Gov. Bob McDonnell announced Monday that he would undo a freeze on an education funding formula that would have taken money from more affluent school districts and given it to less affluent ones.
For the first time in many years, I'll not be hosting a Super Bowl party.
Call them the Liberty Colts.
Just like the Super Bowl-bound squad from Indy, the Liberty boys basketball team locked up a first-round playoff bye with four games to go.
The Jefferson Forest lady basketball team hasn't had a whole lot of positives to point to this season.
That short list just got a little longer, though.
Many veterans of the Korean War call it America's forgotten war. It came between World War II and Viet Nam and its veterans are often overlooked.
There are a number of them in the Bedford area and one of them is about to retire from the Bedford Bulletin. Actually, it's a second retirement. Wiley Fowler, who turned 79 late last year, worked at Rubatex for 38 years before taking a part-time job at the Bulletin.
A Monday night Bedford County Board of Supervisors budget work session actually consisted of a number of informational items for the supervisors.
County Administrator Kathleen Guzi said that she actually had some good news for the supervisors. The good news is that spending reductions that are already in place will take them through 2010 without additional cuts.
The next fiscal year, which actually begins on July 1, could be another story.
Virginia's General Assembly has elected Judge Louis Harrison to a six year term on the Bedford County Juvenile and Domestic Relations (J & D) Court. Harrison replaces Judge Philip Wallace, who retired from the bench last year.

Many patients with late-stage cancers who enroll in early-phase clinical trials harbor unrealistic optimism about the potential benefits of participation, according to a recent study.
Phase 1 and phase 2 trials of therapies for cancers help provide necessary preliminary safety and effectiveness data, but they may offer limited therapeutic benefits to the patients enrolled in them. It is particularly important to ensure that patients with advanced cancers who have exhausted most other treatment options fully understand the purpose of phase 1 and phase 2 trials and that they may personally not benefit. However, some concerns have been raised about whether many participants have a complete understanding of the purpose of such studies or whether patients who participate hold unrealistic hopes that the intervention under study might help them.

Scotland's Future – Your Guide to an Independent Scotland

- Order a hard copy
- Scotland's Future - Summary (multiple languages)
On 18 September 2014 you will be asked to vote in a referendum on the question: 'Should Scotland be an independent country?' The Scottish Government believes you should vote Yes.
This guide sets out the gains of independence for Scotland – whichever party is in government – and this Government's vision and priorities for action if we are the first government of an independent Scotland. It also explains the process by which Scotland will become independent following a Yes vote and how our newly independent Scotland will work. Scotland has many natural advantages. The foundations of our economy are strong. We have abundant natural resources.
We have a talented population with many world-class businesses and institutions. We have a proud history, progressive traditions, fine intellectual and artistic accomplishments, a strong identity and many friends across the world.
Through devolution, the people of Scotland have experienced some of the benefits of independence. The advantages of taking decisions for ourselves have been clear. Crime is lower. Health outcomes have improved. In many ways – like our unemployment rate – our economy is stronger than the UK as a whole.
The Scottish Parliament has protected the NHS from privatisation and restored our tradition of free education. This guide lays out how we can complete Scotland's journey to home rule and become a fully independent country. If Scotland votes Yes in the referendum the Scottish Government will negotiate so that Scotland becomes independent on 24 March 2016.
In detail, this guide sets out: The case for independence
Decisions about Scotland – decisions that affect us, our families, our communities and the future of our country – should be taken in Scotland to reflect the views and concerns of the Scottish people, rather than by governments at Westminster with different priorities, often rejected by voters in Scotland.
The strong foundations already in place for the economy and public finances of an independent Scotland.
Scotland can afford to be independent. We can pay for, and protect, our public services. Even those who currently argue against independence accept that Scotland can be a successful independent country.
Independence will give us the powers we need to build an even stronger economy. It will equip us to compete effectively in the global economy, rather than remain under Westminster which has created an unequal society and an unbalanced economy.
How Scotland will become independent.
Following a vote for independence on 18 September 2014, Scotland will prepare to become an independent country. There will be negotiations with the rest of the UK, the EU and other international partners. Planning for independence in March 2016 allows a realistic time to reach agreement in those discussions and to complete the legal processes to transfer power to the Scottish Parliament. The first parliamentary election in an independent Scotland will take place on 5 May 2016.
What an independent Scotland will look like.
The shape of Scotland in the future will be determined by how the people of Scotland vote in elections in 2016 and thereafter. The current Scottish Government will lead Scotland from a Yes vote in September 2014 to independence in March 2016. This guide sets out what Scotland will look like at the point of independence – on issues such as the currency, the monarchy and membership of the EU.
The gains of independence for you, your family and community.
Independence will give the Scottish Parliament new powers in areas like the economy, taxation, welfare, energy and defence, and control over key national assets like the postal system. In this guide we set out the many opportunities these powers will give Scotland, and some of the current Scottish Government's priorities for action if we are elected to be the government of an independent Scotland in May 2016.
Answers to your questions. In this guide we answer detailed questions we have been asked about independence.
Structure of this guide
Part one of the guide sets out an overview of the case for independence:
- why Scotland needs independence
- what Scotland will look like on independence
- what will happen between a Yes vote and Scotland becoming independent
- our financial and economic strengths
- the benefits of independence and the priorities for action of the current Government if it is the first government of an independent Scotland
- the consequences of Scotland voting No to independence
Part two describes the strengths of Scotland's national finances over recent decades compared to the UK as a whole. It also estimates Scotland's opening financial position at the point of independence – 2016/17 – and sets out this Government's priorities for the first term of a Scottish Parliament.
Part three provides detailed analysis of the changes needed across Scotland, the opportunities that independence provides for any future Scottish government to make those changes, and the particular priorities for action identified by this Government.
These chapters cover:
- Finance and the Economy, including measures to boost the economy, create jobs and ensure we have a skilled, motivated and fairly-rewarded workforce, and proposals on our currency, the tax system, and financial regulation
- Transport, including proposals to strengthen connections within and to Scotland, support decarbonisation and reduce Air Passenger Duty
- Health, Wellbeing and Social Protection, including proposals to improve pensions, build a fairer welfare system in an independent Scotland, and continue to protect our NHS
- Education, Skills and Employment, including the opportunities for our schools, universities and colleges to flourish with independence, our transformational childcare proposals, and the need to address inequalities in educational attainment in our schools, protect free university education and strengthen Scotland's academic research base
- International Relations and Defence, including Scotland's transition to independent membership of the EU, and our proposals for Scotland's armed forces and international representation
- Justice, Security and Home Affairs, including the opportunities to make our communities safe, protect ourselves against terrorism and other security threats, and establish a system of immigration and citizenship that meets Scotland's needs
- Environment, Rural Scotland and Energy & Resources, including the opportunities for our food and drink, agriculture and fishing industries, and our rural and island communities, and proposals to support our energy industries – oil and gas and renewables – and manage our energy wealth for the future with the creation of a Scottish Energy Fund
- Culture and Communications, including the future of broadcasting and the Royal Mail in Scotland
Part four sets out the timescale and process for Scotland to become an independent country following a Yes vote in the referendum. It describes the transition that will take place and the negotiations that will be required on assets and liabilities, and to ensure continued delivery of public services.
It also sets out the opportunities for a modern democracy with our own written constitution and describes how equality and human rights will be protected and promoted on independence.
Finally, in Part five we answer detailed questions we have been asked about independence.
