UPDATE: "The Flash" Hasn't Cast Savitar, Says Berlanti
TV, Comic Books
Khari Evans' penciling over Barry Kitson's breakdowns looks really, really nice.
(Click on the links for preview pages, courtesy of Marvel.com)
Would the kindly rabbit please link we poor, uninformed paupers to an example of said visual goodness?
I guess that since Kitson's actual work is The Order from Marvel, you're implying that Khari Evans complete his breakdown à la "52" from DC.
The only thing is that i cumulated The Order issues until I get 5 or 6 to read them & then got an idea so your declaration made me flip through the said issues BUT i read inks by Morales & Sibal…
Altough, i was pleased & surprised to see that Marvel was abble to release so much issues in little time compared to Kitson regular absences in Legion.
No wonder when you see the poor quality of the last issues (3 & 4).
OOOOOOh, maybe you're reffering to Issue 5 that was released today & that I don't get yet… MY BAD!!
Still, i get this boook in the first time because of Kitson involvement, so if it's Placebo Kitson, Fraction has to be in good shape to compensate or I'll drop.
Aw man, now I have to buy this too! You pummeled my resistance with a simple declaration. Time to kill the wabbit…
You know, I saw those previews earlier (maybe last week?), noted the difference in art, but didn't read the credits, and chocked (chalked?) the images up to Kitson changing his style a bit.
So, yeah, looks good. I like. Evans needs more work; The Order would be a good long-term fit, if Kitson can only do so many issues a year.
If this were an ongoing thing, I'd definitely be on board with it.
I don't think the coloring works. It's a little too computer-y for the linework, but that's no fault of Evans'.
[…] 2. The folks over at CSBG dig Khari Evans pencilling over Barry Kitson layouts in this week's issue of The Order, the best comic that Marvel is publishing right now that I can think of off the top of my head. I'm not sure I agree. I like Evans just fine, I hope he keeps getting work, and there's nothing wrong with the art here on a purely technical level. But Kitson's light, playfully retro style contrasted nicely with the grimmer or just generally more contemporary aspects of the setting. Imagine that DC and Marvel stop publishing superhero comics in the late 60s and then someone decides to experiment with the genre again in 2007 without the burden of Watchmen or The Dark Knight Returns or, hell, Identity Crisis: that's what the first four issues of The Order looked like to me, and I mean that as high praise.

I was at the East Prairie post office and a man fell and another man helped him up to his vehicle. Why don't they have a rail going up the steps to get to the mailbox?
This is Terry Meer. I am a cancer patient going for chemo, I go every Thursday. I'm from East Prairie. Brother John Archie and Brother Jim Blumenberg found that I was driving myself back and forth so they decided they would put new tires on my car and help fix my car so I could drive back and forth safely. I want to thank them for being so kind even though I am not a member of their church. I also want to thank Paul Shipman. He has called every Thursday to see if I need a ride. I want to thank everyone that has done something to help my family, food, or just ask if we needed anything. We know that we can probably never pay them back but we will pray for them and we thank them.
Congratulations to Missy Marshall. The first 5K Rodeo Run was a great success. Your timing was perfect, it was great to have it just before the rodeo parade. You did very well. Let's do it again next year.
I would like to speak out in the SpeakOut about In the nutshell. I was the one who wrote in about Al Gore winning the popular vote in the last election. In here it states that I am a disgruntled Democrat. Well, I am not a disgruntled Democrat. I'm really a Republican who is crying at heart at what my Republican party has done to this country and the situation it has put it in to. However this man or lady or whoever doesn't realize that Al Gore might have lost his home state, however he did win the popular vote of this nation. That's another reason we need to get rid of the electoral college. It's a thing from the horse and buggy days, we don't need it anymore. As far as burying my head in the sand, it seems as if someone has buried theirs in the sand, but I don't intend to. I intend to speak out every chance this paper allows me to because that's the only thing we have left is the freedom of the press. No reporter should have to divulge their sources because once they have to, no paper will be allowed to tell the public what has happened. Thank you for SpeakOut.

"Well, the solution is simple," Fiona said, breaking the long silence that had fallen.
Everyone looked at her.
"We find out what they're up to, we stop them, and we turn them back."
Connor and Aidan exchanged looks and Cecily stared at her mother. Declan surprised them all by bursting into laughter.
"Only you, my dear, would call that plan simple," he said, hugging her tight.
The kids relaxed, letting out a collective breath they hadn't known they were holding.
Whatever might come, the Patrick family would face it together.

A Chinese court will deliver its verdict Monday in the sensitive trial of four employees of mining giant Rio Tinto, concluding a case that reflects the murkiness of China's steel industry.
Australian executive Stern Hu and three Chinese staff were tried last week in a Shanghai court on charges of accepting bribes totalling around 13 million dollars and stealing trade secrets.
The defendants risk sentences of up to 15 years in jail if convicted.
Hu, the head of the Anglo-Australian miner's Shanghai office, and the three Chinese men -- Wang Yong, Liu Caikui and Ge Minqiang -- pleaded guilty to taking money, and one admitted to commercial espionage, defence lawyers said.
The accused, however, disputed aspects of the charges against them, their lawyers said.
A prosecutor recommended Hu be given a lenient sentence after he apologised to the court and to Rio, saying he took more than 900,000 dollars to help friends, his lawyer Jin Chunqing said.
The court will deliver its verdict at 2:00 pm (0600 GMT) Monday, and Australia has said consular officials will be in court to hear the decision.
Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd has said the world is watching the trial, which has been widely seen as a test of the rule of law in China and has raised questions about doing business in the world's third-largest economy.
The four were arrested last July during contentious iron ore contract talks between top mining companies and the steel industry in China, the world's largest consumer of the raw material. Those talks collapsed.
During the three-day trial in China's financial centre, the court heard evidence that millions of yuan in bribes had been stuffed into bags and boxes for the accused, according to state media reports.
Hu took money from small private steel companies, which before the global financial crisis were locked out of buying iron ore from Rio because the Anglo-Australian miner prioritised large state-run steel giants, Jin said.
When the crisis hit in September 2008, demand for iron ore plummeted and the smaller players paid bribes "to squeeze into the club and join the buyers," he said.
Wang strongly objected to the bribery allegations, saying he simply borrowed the money from one of China's richest men, Du Shuanghua, the National Business Daily said.
Du, the former head of Shandong-based Rizhao Iron & Steel group, contradicted Wang's account during the trial, testifying he had paid the Rio employee nine million dollars for preferential treatment, the newspaper said.
Under Chinese law, the toughest sentence for non-government officials convicted of accepting bribes is 15 years in prison, while the maximum penalty for stealing commercial secrets is seven years, according to defence lawyers.

September 16th, 2009, 03:22 PM
I hunted Babcock Ranch on and off Saturday-Tuesday. At the end of Tuesday their were only 5 deer and 3 hogs taken:confused:. It rained all day Saturday and flooded the roads so they closed all the trails (85% of the property) I managed 2 of the 3 hogs and could have taken atleast 10 more no joke. No deer seen from my stand but while stakning I missed a small 8 and the largest 10 point I have ever shot at. I pratice and shoot 3-D all the time but buck fever and too much brush got the best of me on the 2 missed deer but they were clean misses anyway. I will be back for muzzleloader next month. Thanks and good luck to all the Florida boys.
September 16th, 2009, 03:35 PM
I hunted webb all day saturday and sunday morning. Rain was deffinetly a factor. Me and my buddy saw 11 deer on saturday only two were within 100 yards and all were on the move. I believe all were does. Saw 2 hogs early morning but it was definitely too early to shoot. Sunday, hunting alone, I saw 2 does, finally just walking. But I couldn't move fast enough without making too much noise to catch up with them and they wouldn't stop. They kept moving and I eventually lost them. Everybody I talked to, pretty much, had the same experience. They all saw deer but none were very close, and all were running. 10 deer mostly does, biggest was a 4 point (on saturday) and I am not sure what got harvested sunday.
September 16th, 2009, 07:27 PM
update there were 19 deer taken out of webb
September 16th, 2009, 09:26 PM
I shot a gator last weekend. He was only 5'9" but they were all skiddish and we couldnt get clsoe. I wont be back in the deer woods till next week as I am going to watch Urban beat up on Lane this weekend.
September 17th, 2009, 03:04 PM
I did good out at Webb last weekend. I missed a doe on sat,shot just over her back. And saw about 15 other deer that were out of range. On sun I had a doe down by 8:00 Am that had buck chasing her. ( I missed him due to being excited after shooting the doe) Then had three more does come and smell her and then run off. I chose not to shoot because I wanted a shot at a buck. I heard hogs off in the distance so I got down and did some stalking. And shot a boar hog. Then I sat in the rain for a few hours and right after it finished the woods came alive!!!!!!! I saw about a dozen deer and shot this 5 point. The shot was a little far back (liver) so I let him lay till the morning. And found him about 350 or so yards away, but not before the coyotes got him. It was a wet weekend to say the least but a good one.
September 17th, 2009, 03:06 PM

News 12 at 11, March 23, 2008
MATTHEWS, Ga. --- President Bush said six more Georgia counties are disaster areas. One of those is Jefferson County. That makes federal funding available for people affected by the storms, and the county will recover 75 percent of the emergency response and repair cost. Matthews Fire Department Chief, Barrow Walden said the news from the federal government is a blessing.
"I was thankful. We really needed the help. He stepped in and we're going to receive funding from the federal government to help in the cleanup and to try and rebuild our community," Barrow Walden said.
And although it's been a rough week, they're making progress.
"This time last week it was just total chaos," Walden said.
And some of it still remains. Mt. Horeb Baptist Church, still in pieces. And of this house, there's only one wall left standing. The rest of the house, all over the place. Walden said the tornado also hurt their farming community.
"We had farms that were just leveled. Cattle that were injured. It's going to be a major strike to our crops," Walden said.
Walden said there were 12 homes in Matthews that were destroyed, and several of those were uninsured. And the government's help will make a major difference.
"It'll affect it tremendously. If we didn't get the help, we'd have help from the county with clean up but as far as being able to replace some of the loss property and provide for the community. The county wouldn't physically be able to do that," Walden said.

Black Friday! It's the day that makes businesses giddy when all goes well and shoppers anxious as they stand in line, wanting to be first to grab the "big deal!"
This annual "event" looms mere days away, ready to push us headfirst into the holiday season. Many families who are serious about maximizing their savings are already combing through pre-leaked ads.
Others loathe the day, along with all the commercialization and case of the "gimmes" that seems to dominate their holiday.
What are you planning to do on Black Friday? Will you be crowding the malls or surfing the Internet for holiday sales?
Shopping on Black Friday
Family tradition: Usually I tend to avoid the crowds and craziness that shopping on the day after Thanksgiving can provide. This year, we're guests and Abby loves Black Friday shopping. I'll tagging along and knowing Abby, I'll enjoy myself tons," Julie says.
Watching the crowds: "I'm going to go shopping with my mom. I'm not a crazy that gets up super early and stands in line for something, though. I like to go a little later for the atmosphere and people watching," Meg shares.
Shopping from home: "I'll definitely be shopping on Black Friday, but online! I hate dealing with parking, lines, and crowds. I'd rather shop in my sweat pants and slippers, sipping my coffee," Anna says.
Taking your money "Somebody's got to do it! I'll be working and help y'all find those great deals," Geri says.
Going cold turkey on Black Friday
We don't mean heading to the fridge for another plate of leftovers. We're talking about taking a stand against the consumerist message of Black Friday, sometimes a rather bluntly.
Anything but shopping! "Personally, I'd rather get a frontal lobotomy then go shopping…especially on Black Friday. You couldn't pay me enough to go out with those crazy people. No freaking thank you," Dawn says.
Families first: "Families come before sales. The Black Friday creep hurts employees and families. I signed a petition on change.org asking retailers to give Thanksgiving back to families and won't be going shopping Thursday night," Celeste says.
Going local: "There's a little local shop down on our main street that do a little Black Friday event in the morning. It's a great place to pick up nice small gifts and stocking stuffers for the kids. I would consider supporting them," Kim says.
Opting out for a baby: I avoid shopping on Black Friday like the plague! This year I'm being induced that day if my little girl isn't here already. That's my idea of a good Black Friday!" Natalie tells us.
Other ideas and activities
Put up holiday decorations. "My tradition has always been to do my Christmas decorating the day after Thanksgiving. After all that company, I'm ready to enjoy a day to myself and doing something I enjoy,"
"The other tradition: I love Black Friday. I stay home and watch football while others sweat it out on the streets looking for bargains. Depending on the weather, I might go to Apple Bowl or maybe just tailgate," Becky says.
Just do nothing: "I prefer to putter around peacefully at home, where there's always something rewarding/fun to do, like watch old movies, bake cookies, play board games and eat those yummy leftovers," Elaine says.
White out Black Friday!
Are you one of the families who considers the day an opportunity to give back to the community?
Gifting to organizations: "Instead of shopping, I estimate my savings and then give to non-profit organizations in honor of family and friends," Sara shares.
A llama, anyone? "I buy and donate a llama each year through Heifer International, donate to MedWish and do some local things, too. It's a great way to us to welcome the holiday season," Sandy says.
What will you do be doing on Black Friday -- on the prowl for savings or home hang up decorations or hanging out with family?

Fringe Church, Spurred by Court Ruling, Will Continue the Protests
Did you think, while reading the coverage of Wednesday's Supreme Court decision involving the Westboro Baptist Church, that maybe, just maybe, having gotten a bit of validation, the church might now dial down the tactics?
That maybe, just maybe, you wouldn't have to read anything else about their anti-gay protests at funerals of U.S. soldiers? That they'd maybe pick up their, uh, provocative signs and move along?
Not a chance.
The group, said on Wednesday that it'll keep on keepin' on. It'll continue to demonstrate in the same style that landed it in the court system to begin with. Click here for the Reuters story.
"We are trying to warn you to flee the wrath of God, flee the wrath of destruction. What would be more kind than that?" said church member Margie Phelps said after the ruling. "We have not slowed down and we will not."
"I do very much appreciate that I get to be the mouth of God in this matter," she said.
The church believes that God hates homosexuality and is punishing America for its tolerance of homosexuals.
This morning's papers are chock full of takes on the decision. It happens about as often as a CalTech basketball win, but the editorial boards of the WSJ and NYT actually agreed on something: that the court got it right. The NYT called Chief Justice John Roberts's opinion "admirable," while the WSJ called it "important."

Sisters of Life: Protecting Life in All its Forms
CINCINNATI—The Sisters of Life are presently a community of 64 women who combine their multilayered duties with meditative quiet—sometimes interrupted by the raucous squeals of babies. Their dedication to the cause of life traces its roots to a 20th-century symbol of death: the preserved remnants of the Nazi concentration camp at Dachau where thousands died. From that place of destruction and dehumanization came the idea for an order of women who would defend, promote and cherish life in all its forms.
The story of this remarkable order is the subject of January's cover article entitled, "Sisters of Life," by Peter Feuerherd. After December 22, the article will be posted at: http://www.AmericanCatholic.org.
It was at Dachau that the late Cardinal John J. O'Connor put his hands inside the brick crematorium oven and asked the question: "How could human beings do this to other human beings?" In 1991, his question led to the formation of the Sisters of Life. The vision forged ahead after the cardinal wrote about it in Catholic New York, his archdiocesan newspaper, in 1990.
The column was simply titled: "Help Wanted: Sisters of Life." It sketched out his ideas as he sought out women who would be interested in answering a call to pray, assist those harmed by abortion and promote the Church's pro-life agenda.
The Sisters of Life pursue their apostolate through their Holy Respite Mission in Manhattan, a sanctuary for women and their children, born and unborn. The convent opened 10 years ago. In that time 150 women and their babies have lived with the sisters, joining in community life and preparing themselves to reenter the world. The community also operates a retreat center in Stamford, Connecticut, that offers reflection weekends for women who have experienced abortion; provides leadership for the New York Archdiocese's Respect Life/Family Life Office; and maintains a library dedicated to pro-life issues.
They are also fixtures at pro-life events, such as the March for Life in Washington each January. The sisters also provided an outreach to young people at the 2008 World Youth Day in Sydney, Australia, which they will repeat at the 2011 World Youth Day in Madrid.
The Sisters of Life are renewed by the presence of novices who are attracted by their ideals and want to commit themselves to service and prayer. Novices undergo a rigorous formation, including studies on the writings of Cardinal O'Connor, medical ethics and theology. The sisters take the usual vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. They also take a special fourth vow: to protect and defend the sacredness of human life.
"That's what gets us up in the morning," says Mother Agnes Donovan, superior for the sisters. "It colors everything a Sister of Life does. It's the way we are called to love."
It is a demanding life: The needs are overwhelming in the midst of a society where more than a million abortions are performed each year. The work is never done. That can be frustrating. And none of the work could be done without God.
"We're simply instruments of God," Mother Donovan says. "There's no way 64 women could do this alone. The need is like a tidal wave. We stand before a tidal wave of grief, a tsunami of brokenness."

Contemporary data-driven innovation is represented and visualised as a massive repository of human culture and activity, able to tackle and articulate the complexity, breadth and depth of the information available within virtual spaces. A 3.000 square meter, floor-to-ceiling terapixel graphic makes manifest the largesse of Big Data, the theme of this year's CODE_n. The designers imagine systems beyond human perception and use custom code to plot massive amounts of data on spectacular canvases.
Against this complex backdrop of Big Data, 21st century innovation is posited as a sequence of deeply connected ideas and intangible technologies that bolster the endeavours of 50 international startups from 17 countries, each hand selected by both CODE_n initiators GFT and global partner E&Y as the most promising business concepts in Big Data.
In the centre of this re-imagined forum, an agora-like elevated platform serves as an ancillary block with a full range of gastronomical programming as well as an auditorium and curated public space. The two raised levels are flanked by wide-set monumental stairways, one of which is wrapped in a semi-transparent textile that acts as a cinematic screen. The result is a semi-public auditorium that is at once permeable and specialised.

U.S. Giants Bet on Shale Gas in Poland
Poland's entire natural-gas industry and a special U.S. envoy in charge of energy gathered at a shale gas conference Thursday sponsored by the likes of Chevron, ExxonMobil and Halliburton. U.S. giants will start drilling for shale gas in Poland within the next few weeks. If they find meaningful amounts of it, Poland's energy mix, carbon dioxide issues and even external policy may change completely.
Thanks to shale gas, over the past two decades the U.S. has drastically reduced its reliance on imported gas and in fact became a gas exporter. Geological research shows that a similar U-turn is possible in Poland, which may have enough shale gas to satisfy all of its gas demand for decades — or more.
At present, Europe's gas industry is still divided into the western part, which relies heavily on imports from Algeria and its own production, and the eastern part, including Poland, mostly dependant on Russia's Gazprom. A discovery of large shale gas deposits in Poland could diminish Gazprom's importance in Central and Eastern Europe.
"Production of shale gas in Europe can change its energy paradigm," Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski told the industry conference on shale gas on Thursday.
Poland has for years been concerned with Russia's gas policy, seeing Gazprom as a tool in the hands of the Kremlin that is used at regular intervals in the middle of the winter season, most recently against mainland Russia's neighbors Ukraine and Belarus.
Discovery of shale gas in Poland would also change the climate policy of the country, allowing for new power generation capacities and lower carbon dioxide emissions, the country's Environment Minister Andrzej Kraszewski also said.
Currently Poland's electric energy sector relies almost entirely on coal and generates large amounts of carbon dioxide. Gas-fired power plants generate less CO2 and are much more energy-efficient than coal-fired plants.
Still, U.S. majors, like Chevron and ExxonMobil, are only getting ready to drill. According to Foreign Minister Sikorski, there's a risk they won't find all that much.
"There's a risk of exaggerated optimism. Shale gas raises questions that we don't yet know answers to," he said.
Richard Morningstar, U.S. Eurasian energy czar under Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, said Poland is very promising for shale gas, but several more years are needed to find out exactly if and how much gas can be produced.
"Geology in Poland looks very promising, but companies won't know until exploration begins," he said. "Poland is at the beginning stage of the [shale gas] development, so this a great point to start the work."
"But it will take a couple of years to know if prospects exist for more gas and to find out if there are commercial amounts," Morningstar added.
Still, Sikorski said U.S. interest in Polish shale gas can lead to increased cooperation also in other new areas that can benefit Poland and the U.S.
"There's a wider context of cooperation possible in energy and climate protection," he said.
The shale gas conference was, as U.S. officials said, Sikorski's brainchild and a similar conference was held just a few days earlier in the Polish Geological Institute, which may show Poland is indeed committed to the exploration projects.

Donepezil effects on mood in patients with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder
Donepezil, 5 mg/d for 6 wk then 10 mg/d for 6 wk, and placebo daily for 12 wk in a double-blind cross-over paradigm, was added to the therapeutic regimen of 13 patients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorders, clinically stable on atypical antipsychotic medications. Patients had varying degrees of depressive symptoms, ranging from no depression to clinically significant depression. There was no worsening or induction of depression in individual patients or the group as a whole. In addition there was a statistically significant antidepressant effect in the group as a whole during the donepezil condition and a clinically significant antidepressant effect in the patients with clinically significant depressive symptoms, although there were not enough depressed patients in the group to conclude that donepezil may have antidepressant effects. Thus, in this study, donepezil did not induce or worsen depressive symptoms in schizophrenic and schizoaffective disorder patients.(Received April 14 2005)

Police say after seven months, they don't have any leads in the disappearance of 11-year-old Heaven LaShae Ross.
The youngster vanished last Aug. 19 from her Northport trailer park.
Northport Police detective Terry Carroll said Shae's whereabouts remain a mystery and he said so far there's no evidence to indicate if she was abducted or ran away from home. He also said its unknown if Shae is alive or dead.
She was featured on several national television shows and generated dozens of leads from across the nation, but none panned out.
The case took another twist on March second when the state Fire Marshal's office said a fire that started in the missing girl's bedroom may have been intentionally started. The blaze, which occurred on the morning of Sept. 25, ruined many of Shae's possessions, was confined to one side of her room.
Despite the gloomy assessment, Shae's mother remains hopeful her daughter will be found.

In the wake of speculation that White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel could step down from his post to run for Mayor of Chicago, Politico reports that according to Democratic insiders, Deputy National Security Adviser Tom Donilon is the leading candidate for President Obama to appoint as a replacement should Emanuel resign.
HuffPost's Jen Sabella relays the background:
Even before the shock of Chicago Mayor Richard Daley's announcement that he would not be seeking another term wore off -- many people turned their attention to White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel.
Emanuel, who was born in Chicago and represented Illinois' 5th congressional district until he joined the Obama administration, has been open about his desire to become mayor of Chicago since early this year. His connections to the position held by Daley for 21 years also run deep -- he served as finance chairman of Daley's first mayoral campaign in 1989.
Despite the close relationship, Emanuel said he was "surprised" by Daley's announcement on Tuesday.
Politico reports:
Perhaps the most likely candidate is Tom Donilon, a deputy national security adviser, whose political experience goes back to the Carter-Mondale campaign. Donilon earned his chops in government as the first assistant secretary of State for public affairs under President Bill Clinton. Donilon's wife, Cathy Russell, is chief of staff to Dr. Jill Biden.
Another possible prospect is Ron Klain, chief of staff to Vice President Joe Biden, who has served in string of sensitive positions, including chief of staff to Vice President Al Gore chief of staff during the 1996 reelection campaign.
White House Senior David Axelrod signaled to Ann Compton at ABC News on Wednesday morning that should Emanuel resign and pursue a campaign to succeed Daley as Chicago Mayor, the president will stand behind his decision.
"The mayoralty in Chicago is an unbelievealy attractive opportunity," explained Axelord. "And I'm sure if Rahm decides to do that, the President will support that decision."

Will Apple Announce Special Dividend? Don't Count on It
At least one analyst doesn't think Apple is going to join the special-dividend frenzy.
Several smaller companies and some large caps have paid big one-time payouts or moved up dividend payments before higher taxes have a chance to kick in. But when it comes to Apple — the biggest company on the planet — Deutsche Bank says such a development would be "welcome but unlikely."
"Despite the wishes of many investors, the probability of a special Apple dividend appears low," says Chris Whitmore, a research analyst at Deutsche Bank. "We believe the company is more focused on building a track record of predictable dividend growth (vs. a one-time lump payment) and share buybacks.
"Although a special dividend would be a big short-term positive development, it appears unlikely at this point in time as special dividends do not tend to have a lasting benefit to shareholders," Whitmore adds.

Big companies, such as discounter Costco Wholesale casino operator Las Vegas Sands and department-store chain Dillard's have announced plans to pay special dividends to get ahead of the automatic tax increases that would go into effect if the White House and Congress don't negotiate a solution to the so-called fiscal cliff.
Wal-Mart Stores, and Walt Disney each moved up their regular dividend payments from January to December.
Dividend-tax rates could increase from 15% to about 40% if the Bush-era tax cuts aren't extended.
In November, 228 companies announced special dividends, compared to only 72 in the same time frame a year ago, according to Howard Silverblatt, senior index analyst at S&P Dow Jones Indices. The bulk of those companies were small caps, he notes.
"The question on specials is will big caps participate," Silverblatt said in an email over the weekend.
In March, Apple bowed to mounting pressure to return some of its huge cash reserves to shareholders, announcing it would issue a dividend and buy back stock. The move was seen at the time as one of the company's biggest breaks from the late Steve Jobs's philosophy.
Apple earlier this year became the biggest U.S. company ever by stock-market value. And, as Whitmore notes, Apple has become increasingly shareholder friendly and has been some of its cash to work. The company initiated a $2.65 a share dividend in the fiscal fourth quarter and is implementing a $10 billion share repurchase program to be executed over three years, he says.
"While Apple remains committed to investing in R&D, acquisitions, new store openings, strategic prepayments and capex in its supply chain, we believe Apple could accommodate a large special dividend," Whitmore says.
But just because Apple could do such a thing doesn't mean it actually will.
"We expect Apple to take a longer-term view with respect to its dividend policy," he says.
Apple shares recently rose more than 1% to $592.17. The stock hit record highs above $700 in mid-September before tumbling 25% in less than two months. Analysts have attributed the decline to weaker-than-anticipated demand for the new iPhone, worries about iPad Mini pricing, management changes and growing competition from the likes of Google Microsoft and Amazon.com
Shares have rebounded recently, rising 17% since mid-November.

Swirl in Photoshop Tips
Learn how to make a swirl in Photoshop from this easy to follow tutorial. So, you need to create a spiral in Photoshop and you don't want to use a pre-made swirl brush or a swirl shape. To be honest swirl custom shapes are hard to make and for that reason there are not to many swirl shapes available for free on the internet.
You can create your own swirl in Photoshop from scratch and the good news is that it can be made in just 5 minutes. In this tutorial I you will find the basic steps on how to create a swirl in Photoshop using different types of gradients and the Distort Twirl Filter. Sounds good? Let's start!

Create a Gradient in Photoshop
The entire process of making a swirl or spiral or twirl in Photoshop is really easy and begins with a gradient layer. This is the most important step and the swirl will look different depending on how the initial gradient looks like.
Create a new psd file, size 600/600px. Pick the Gradient Tool that you will find in the Paint Bucket Tool category on the main toolbar. I will not explain in detail this tool but I do plan to make a basic tutorial on how to use the Gradient Tool in Photoshop really soon.
You see that an additional toolbar appeared where you can change the gradient colors and also choose one of the five types of gradients (linear, radial, etc). I will choose a simple gradient with two tones of blue, one dark and one brite.
Choose Linear Gradient and fill the layer with this gradient. Simply draw a line on the screen with this tool and the gradient direction will follow that line. I choose a vertical line direction from the top center to the bottom center of the image. This is how your image should look like so far:
Make Swirl in Photoshop
Now comes the fun part, where we will actually create the swirl. Go to the Filter Menu and choose Distort. From the Distort menu pick Twirl. This name actually gives you a hint, because as you already know, twirl swirl spiral are actually synonyms. Choose maximum range for the angle, 999.
Swirl Effect in Photoshop
You can see that now it looks kind of soft, mainly because the gradient was soft also and the colors were not very contrastant. If you want a more defined swirl, press CTRL+F several times. This mean that you will apply the same Twirl Effect multiple times and the swirl will look better.
This is the entire process, simple, right?! But you can create different other effects depending on how your gradient looks like. In the following steps I will show you different effects that I have made. But you can also play to make your own beautiful swirls.
Perfect Spiral in Photoshop
If you want to obtain a very defined spiral, start with the gradient and choose two different colors. Be careful to set the locations of the two colors to 50%. Add the gradient and apply the same Twirl Effect several times. This is how yor perfect spiral should look like:
Use Angle, Reflected and Diamond Gradient to Create Swirls in Photoshop
Use the same gradient you did in the previous step but this time choose different gradient types, one at a time of course and then apply Twirl Filter. You can see in the image below the effects that will be obtained if you pick Angle, Reflected or Diamond Gradients.
I want to show how the swirl will look like if we use the initial gradient, less defined with color one at 0% location and color two at 100% location. You may wonder why the Radial Gradient is not on my list; it is simply because I did not obtain a Swirl Effect using this radial gradient, but again you are free to experiment.
Using Twirl in Photoshop with more complicated gradients, you will obtain of course more complicated and beautiful swirls. Here are some samples.
Sunburst Swirl in Photoshop
This cool Twirl Filter can be used in many ways to create interesting swirl effects in photoshop. One of my favorites is to use it to swirl a sunburst. So lets say we have the following types of sunburst; apply the Twirl Distort Filter and you can see the before and after effect
Just be careful to set the Angle of the Twirl Filter to 166 and not 999 like in the previous examples. An angle of 166 will work just fine; apply the filter only once.
Hope you have enjoyed this tutorial on how to create a swirl in Photoshop and come back for more tips and tricks. See you soon !

Junior High Warriors shine
The Wells Junior High Warriors completed a memorable season with a 12-6 victory at York on Oct. 28 to win the Southern Maine Youth Football League Mountain Division championship.
The seventh- and eighth-graders from the Wells-Ogunquit Youth Football and Cheering Association ended the year with a 9-1 record.
The Wells defense came up with a couple key first quarter stops, deep in their own end of the field that kept the York squad from getting on the board.
Wells' touchdowns were scored by Jacob Spofford (an 85-yard touchdown run in the opening period) and Jordan Cluff (a 10-yard scoring run in the fourth quarter).
York's score was a Trevor Labonte to Reid Hogan 15-yard touchdown pass.
The Wells team had a 6-1 regular season with wins coming against Westbrook (42-0), Gorham (38-18), Somersworth (18-14), Kittery (46-20), Kennebunk (34-6) and Marshwood (26-20). The squad's one loss was a 24-12 setback to York one week before the playoffs got started.
Wells rolled in its first game of the post-season, a 40-8 win against Westbrook in the quarterfinals. The Warriors followed that up with a hard-fought 14-8 victory over Somersworth in a semifinal match-up. And Wells capped off its playoff run with the 12-6 win at York for the division crown.
The roster included eighth-graders Nicholas Hansen, Evan Whitten, Jordan Cluff, Owen Berry, Cullen Cummings, Marcus Tufts, Jacob Spofford, Riley Dempsey, Cody Brassard Cody, Jacob Dion, Alexander Staples, Deandre Woods, Benjamin Orozco, David Ladlow, Patrick Forbes, Tristan Cox, Joshua Yee, Joey Chaplin, David Ouellette, Trevor Hobbs, Katie Goodale, Courtland Austin and Caleb Chase.
Seventh-graders on the roster included Michael Wrigley, Christian Saulnier, Matthew Szczygiel, Chad Fitzpatrick, Jesse Taylor, Jack Talevi, Nolan Potter, Ethan Marsh, Ethan Huber-Young, Drew Peters, John Harris, Brendan Dean, Timothy Bullard, Lukas Hall and Gabe Rider.
The team's head coach was Eric Sargent.

In sports, the scoreboard matters, not the country
Sports are natural ambassadors. People love to compete and competitors love to win. Nationality, ethnicity, gender demographic status: none of those matters in sports.
Scoreboard! For decades we tried to use the Olympic Games to make a political statement. It didn't work. When people from different cultures and ideologies meet in athletic competition, it gets down to competition and sportsmanship. That is how it should be in all endeavors.
Ramona High foreign exchange student Vasek Reischl is a student/athlete and a competitor from the Czech Republic. Vasek lettered on the Bulldog varsity tennis team this year. He played singles and doubles and fit in perfectly on the team.
He is the epitome of the term team player.
He was selected as the most inspirational player on the varsity tennis team. He was not a Czech student/athlete. He was a student/athlete from the Czech Republic. There is a difference.
"Everybody has been so nice to me," he said. "Playing tennis for Ramona was a great experience. Coach (Doug) Failla is a great coach. The team and coach accepted me as a teammate from the very beginning. I knew some of the students from being in class with them. We played great competition. Coach Failla told us from the beginning that we were in a very strong league with very good teams. He encouraged us to work hard and improve and compete. I enjoyed every bit of the experience."
The feeling was mutual.
"Vasek fit right in from day one," said Coach Doug Failla. "He is a hard worker and was a pleasure to coach. He is a talented player and an outstanding young man. He is a great teammate. He added greatly to our team. I hope that he enjoyed being on our team as much as we enjoyed having him on our team."
Vasek is a 17-year-old junior at RHS. When he returns to the Czech Republic, he will have two more years of high school before he graduates.
"School is different in the Czech Republic. We start at 8:30 a.m. and go until 4:30 p.m. from September until June. We don't have much homework and it is not a part of our grades. Only test results count for grades. In the United States, homework counts on your grade. The relationship between teachers and students is different, too. In the Czech Republic teachers are not as friendly with students and are more formal than they are in the United States."
Vasek is taking six classes at RHS: English, Spanish, European history, U.S. history, economics and calculus, a difficult class load. In the Czech Republic he took 13 classes last semester: Czech, Spanish, English, chemistry, biology, physics, computer science, social science, history, physical education, art, math and geography.
Vasek plans on continuing his education at the Economic University of Prague and then transferring to UCLA. He plans on going into business.
"Vasek is an excellent economics student," said his Ramona High economics teacher, Sue Weaver. "He works very hard and plans on working in his family's business. He has been a pleasure to have in class."
Vasek started playing tennis when he was 4 years old. There are no interscholastic sports in the Czech Republic, so Vasek plays for the club team Tesla Karlin. His father, Vaclar, is a tennis player as is his 11-year-old sister, Anna. His mother, Eva, does not play tennis.
Vasek has really enjoyed his stay in Ramona with Erik and Jennifer Melzer.
"My host family is the greatest and through them I have had great experiences in America," he said. "I have been to Utah, Las Vegas, San Francisco, gone to the East Coast, New York, Washington, D.C. We are going to go to Hawaii in July and meet my family there. It has been great."
Vasek has a slight accent but speaks excellent English. He began learning English in kindergarten, "but I have only been studying seriously for six years. I plan on learning Russian next year. It is close to the Czech language so it will not be that difficult to learn.
"It took me two to three weeks to get used to American English in the classroom and only about a week to understand my friends. There is not that much of a difference in the two cultures. Americans are much more confident. It took longer to adjust to starting school at 7:20 than it did to the language differences."
Vasek still hears people in his country and in the U..S refer to the Czech Republic as Czechoslovakia, but he has only lived in capitalism and never communism.
"I was worried that because I was from a former communist country that people might not be friendly to me," he said. "That has not been the case. People have been very kind to me."
Vasek Reischl has been a student, athlete and an ambassador during his stay in Ramona. He has been an inspiration to more than the tennis team. When athletes from two cultures meet, it gets down to competition and sportsmanship. That is how it should be.

May Day
The Show With No Name started off the program with the all important call by Weather Ninja. Well, Tommy, David, RJ, and myself exchanged our morning pleasantries and then the call about the skys over Arkansas.
Being back in the studio for the first show in three afforded us the opportunity to throw out The Stupid Question of the Day. It lasted for about what, 30 minutes at the most? That was perfect for Tommy. Man he hates that thing I think. Ya gotta come in the studio sometime and watch his face when it goes on a couple 5 -10 minutes. Matter of fact, listen to his voice crack the next time he starts the bit. It's got to be a form of anger management for him to announce the game and then go thru with it. Speaking of anger management. David asked the question, how do we express it when we get angry? I did a stupid thing and burned myself with a cigarette. David I believe punched one wall. That's the most common I'm sure. Justin is a door slammer. Tommy was a puncher too. Now our buddy RJ Hawk? Yep. You guessed it. All The Above..Plus! You should have seen RJ when we told him he was not allowed to eat any of the grub that Tori with Down Home Catering brought. We were just teasing knowing that Mr. Hawk couldn't hold it in very long. We were so right. He stepped in the break room and put his fist thru all the melt in your mouth biscuits! Decorum prevents me from telling what he did to the chocolate gravy!! Goosfraba.
We didn't abandon sports. We are contractually obligated to speak on the subject. Oh, but, we also picked the 'G' in the ABC's of Rock & Roll. For the life of me I can't remember who was chosen. Let us just go with the Go Go's! What now?! I know at least one other agrees with me.
Screw it then! No that's OK. In sports we talked about the NBA and NFL. DUH!! We were treated with a visit from #16 in your program and number 2 in your heart. Now ya gotta give me that. David Bazzel has to be number 1. I'm quite sure Brad Taylor is cool with it as well. I'm not budging on that either. You can stop calling and texting me right this minute. I'm moving on. Goosfraba!!!
Tomorrow 'Wild Man' Wilson. Matt Couch will be in and disclose how some lucky listener will win a new phone next week on The Show With No Name. Talk atcha on Hump Day! Arkansas Hump Day Baby!!
Remember you don't have to buy a new car to be treated like you did. Fletcher Dodge has a wide selection of cars to fit every budget. Just for stopping by and talking with the Fletcher guys you get dinner for two at Benihana Japanese Steakhouse.

Judge: Federal Judiciary Is on the 'Cusp of a Financial Crisis'
A federal judge sounded the alarm Tuesday over across-the-board cuts that will take effect in 2013 if Congress fails to reach a deal on reducing the deficit.
"The courts could lose more than one-fourth of their workforce, civil trials could be suspended for months, funds to pay panel attorneys who represent indigent defendants would expire well before the end of the fiscal year, and court security could be severely compromised," said Judge Julia Gibbons, in remarks to the federal judiciary's policy-making body.
The judiciary has been funded at about the same level for the past three years. Judge Gibbons, who chairs the Judicial Conference's budget committee, said the courts have reduced their staffing levels by about 5%.
"The Judiciary is on the cusp of a financial crisis of significant proportions, one that I believe we can assuage somewhat if we are willing to take bold and unprecedented action," said Judge Julia Gibbons, who sits on the U.S. Court of Appeals of the Sixth Circuit.
On Tuesday, the conference agreed to ask Congress to pass legislation that would eliminate some probation and pretrial services seen as duplicative. One proposal would allow courts to waive electronic monitoring of some defendants who are in a halfway house or treatment center as part of their pretrial requirements.

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO -- A woman accused of renting rooms she doesn't own to unsuspecting young tenants is being sought in a Craiglist rental hoax police are calling "the worst they've seen" in South San Francisco.
Authorities say the woman, who has no affiliation with the residence on Francisco Drive, listed the five-bedroom home on Craigslist in early October and used a Craigslist email address to set an appointment to show the house. On Oct. 13, the suspect gave a full tour of the 1,410-square-foot home to three 19-year-old victims, who told her they'd like to rent two of the five rooms she was allegedly renting out piecemeal.
Two weeks later, the victims paid the woman with an $1,800 money order to move in Nov. 1, and were given keys to locks she had recently changed, South San Francisco Police Sgt. Bruce McPhillips said. The couple and their female friend lived in the home for a week before they were discovered Thursday by the owner, who called police to investigate the situation.
Authorities quickly determined the victims were scammed by the woman they believed to be their landlord, and have been unable to contact the woman since, McPhillips said. The property, recently purchased from private owners by San Mateo-based Shoreline Asset Group, was not acquired for rental purposes and sat empty for about two months -- enough time for the suspect to allegedly unfold an elaborate housing scam.
"(This) fraudster was probably watching house sales in the area, changed the locks on the doors and rented it out like it was her house," said McPhillips, who noted that despite the relative frequency of Bay Area rental hoaxes, this scam went further than any he's seen in South San Francisco.
Added McPhillips, "I have no doubt she's involved in other scams. People don't do this one time and then go away."
The suspect is described as an Asian woman, possibly Chinese, in her 40s with a light complexion. She is about 5 feet 3 inches tall with an average build and has short, black hair cut into what police described as a "common male haircut."
The investigation is ongoing. Anyone who may have had similar contact with the suspect is asked to contact the South San Francisco Police Department at 650-877-8900.

History of Trail Development and Other Facilities
Introduction to the History of Trail Development in Anchorage:
One of the goals of the Nordic Skiing Association of Anchorage (Nordic Ski Club) is to help provide the best cross country skiing opportunities that we can for all the people of Anchorage and Alaska. To that end we help design, construct, and maintain ski trails and we have been doing that for the past 35 years in the Anchorage area.
From a historic point of view folks have probably been cross country skiing in Alaska longer than any of us can remember. We do know that activities of the Nordic Ski Club of Anchorage began in the early 60's. During those years skiers at East High School used trails which they built in Russian Jack Park which at that time housed a prison farm, the Animal shelter and a potato field as well as the beginnings of a camper park. Skiers at West used trails made from the Faulkner's front yard through the Atwood Golf course. Big races were held at Moose Run with the cooperation of the military through the US Biathlon Unit. When Dimond HS was built in the mid 60's coaches and parents built trails near the school but had to abandon those trails to subdivision development by the early 70's. At that time skiers began to use existing trails, fence lines and roads at Kincaid Park. Volunteers established the original 15km of new cross country ski trails at Kincaid during the summers of the early 70's.
At the same time parents were working with the Borough Parks Department to secure use of land adjacent to the new Service HS complex to establish ski trails for the use of the ski team and community near the school.
When Bartlett HS opened in the mid 70's, once again, parent and club volunteers as well as ski team members designed and built the trails for use by the ski team and community. No public funds were expended on the development of any of the original trails - public lands were used for the location of the trails.
A pattern developed over the years which still exists today. Architects design a school, they plan a gym, track, football stadium with lights, and the parents and ski club are left to plan and build the ski trails which are used by the community and the school for cross country running and skiing classes and competitive teams.
Lighting of trails began in the late 60's at Russian Jack with the donation of surplus lights from the city and installation by volunteers. The next lighted trail was established at Bartlett and built after a Ski for Lights fund raising event. The original lighted trails at Hillside and Kincaid were built as a result of park bond and park budget dollars. Subsequent lights at Hillside and Kincaid have been added to the system through the efforts of private individuals and group fund raising events.
Trail construction and trail maintenance have evolved from cutting with hand tools and packing with snowshoes to sophisticated design, construction, surveying, and grooming with equipment similar to that used on alpine ski slopes. Winter trail grooming prior to 1976 was all voluntary. From 1976 to 1983 the city funded a contract put out to bid for a private contractor to groom ski trails. With the passage of Proposition 23-tax cap in 1983, that funding was eliminated and cross country skiers began the voluntary donation system which pays for the majority of ski trail maintenance today. Since 1984 the city maintenance departments have groomed the cross country ski trails at Russian Jack Park and also along some of the multi use paved bike trails. All other cross country ski trail grooming is funded through voluntary donations by the skiers themselves. The school district does pay for grooming for the junior and senior high school races through a contract with the ski association.
Just for the record, private time, labor, and dollars have been responsible for the construction of the following cross country ski facilities:
Some multiuse trails which skiers share with runners, ski jourers and horseback riders in the winter

Beyonce's Half Brother, Nixon Knowles, Moves to Trailer Park with Mom (video)
As previously reported, Alexsandra Wright, the mother of Mathew Knowles' 4-year-old son, Nixon Knowles, revealed that she and Beyonce's half-brother are still struggling financially. Wright cited lack of support from Mathew Knowles as the alleged cause of her recent move to a Los Angeles homeless shelter.
Well, it appears there has been a slight change in Wright's relocation plans. Yesterday, 'Inside Edition' aired an exclusive interview showing Alexsandra Wright moving into a trailer park, which was arranged by a homeless support group outside of Los Angeles.
During the interview, she revealed that she has since received "thousands" of death threats in response to reports that she expects Nixon's millionaire half-sister to come to their financial aid. She disputed the reports, saying that it's Mathew Knowles' responsibility to support his child, not Beyonce's.
"It's not Beyonce's fault. I don't hold her accountable. I hold the father of my child accountable," she said before adding; "I got over a thousand of death threats last week alone. Because this article said I blamed Beyonce. And again, let me say for the record—it's not her fault. I've never blamed her. I want the best for her."

Vital Signs: Jobless Claims Drop to Pre-Recession Levels
The fewest number of people filed last week for unemployment benefits since before the recession, a sign of the continued improvement in the U.S. labor markets.
Jobless claims declined by 32,000 to 300,000 for the week ended April 5. That was the lowest number since May 2007. On a four-week moving average, claims are not as low as in September 2013, but are better than during the winter weeks.
The Labor Department said no special factors were in play last week, but some economists cautioned that seasonal factors in March and April are skewed by the date changes for Easter. Still, the drop in claims so far this year signals a healthier labor market.
At the 300,000 level, "unemployment claims are an important milestone for the labor markets signaling job hiring by companies is in the full on position," wrote Chris Rupkey, chief financial economist at Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi in a research note.

YouTube video could be evidence against stunt bikers who shut down Central Expressway in Dallas
A group of stunt bikers who snarled traffic on Central Expressway over Memorial Day weekend could face criminal charges because they videotaped their activities.
According to WFAA-TV (Channel 8), Dallas police were reviewing the YouTube video and promised to direct "substantial resources" into an investigation.
Legal experts told Channel 8 that the video is enough to prosecute those violators who showed their faces (though many of the riders wore helmets).
The video shows the bikers defacing the highway near Mockingbird Lane with graffiti and popping wheelies, among other traffic violations.
This is the second year the demonstration has been held on Central, in remembrance of a biker who died in 2009 after a crash on the highway.
Watch a Channel 8′s full report below and a video from last year's memorial after the jump (the video from this year's event has been removed):
