4. Take time for tea on Jekyll Island: The famous Jekyll Island Club Hotel has been entertaining guests of the highest caliber since the turn of the century, including J.P. Morgan, William Rockefeller, Joseph Pulitzer and more. You, too, can feel like one of the social elite when you attend Victorian tea, served every day from 4 to 5 p.m. in the Grand Dining Room. Lace gloves optional.
5. Drive over the Sidney Lanier Bridge: At 7,780 feet long and 486 feet tall, the Sidney Lanier Bridge is Georgia's tallest cable-stayed bridge and the 76th largest cable-stayed bridge in the world!

Chocolate chip ice cream on a sugar cone. Delicious!

Industry Leader Seeks Women Life Insurance Agents
NEW YORK, N.Y., June 23, 2011 — New York Life Insurance Company, America's largest mutual life insurance company, is focused on recruiting more than 1,000 women agents in 2011.
"Our women agents are very vocal about the benefits of a career with New York Life, recognizing the value of having their own financial services practice with the backing of a Fortune 100 company," said Jane Conti, vice president in charge of Women's Market, New York Life. "Whether you're a teacher, coach, nurse, real estate agent or entrepreneur, this might be the career for you. We're also finding that women agents are particularly sought after by the increasing ranks of female consumers with growing financial objectives."
Barbara Bobbin-Wilkinson, a successful agent with New York Life for 20 years and mother of two young children, stated, "Becoming a life insurance professional provided an ideal opportunity for me to build a career in a stable industry with strong earnings potential, combined with the advantage of having a schedule that I am able to integrate with life's demands. This is an ideal career for professional women who seek the ability to provide for themselves and value what they can bring to families and businesses in their communities."
Recent employment data reflect challenges for working women. According to a new report by the National Women's Law Center, women lost about three in every 10 jobs cut between December 2007 and June 2009, but filled fewer than one in every 10 jobs since job growth picked up in 2010. At the same time, the White House Council on Women and Girls recently released a report* noting that women have made enormous progress on some fronts: Not only have women caught up with men in college attendance, but younger women are now more likely than younger men to have a college or master's degree. The report also highlights that as women's presence in the workforce has increased, their earnings constitute a growing share of family income.
"While the financial crisis has been difficult for women, the indicators are there that women have the education and the desire to succeed. And with a powerful brand like New York Life standing behind our agents, this is an ideal time for qualified women to consider this potentially life-changing move," Mrs. Conti said.
Earlier this year, New York Life launched a new career Web site, www.newyorklife.com/careers, for jobseekers that provides easy access to information about the benefits of a career in life insurance and financial services for individuals at all stages of their professional development, as well as opportunities in management.
New York Life Insurance Company, a Fortune 100 company founded in 1845, is the largest mutual life insurance company in the United States** and one of the largest life insurers in the world. New York Life has the highest possible financial strength ratings from all four of the major credit rating agencies. Headquartered in New York City, New York Life's family of companies offers life insurance, retirement income, investments and long-term care insurance. New York Life Investments*** provides institutional asset management and retirement plan services. Other New York Life affiliates provide an array of securities products and services, as well as institutional and retail mutual funds. Please visit New York Life's Web site at www.newyorklife.com or www.newyorklife.com/careers for more information. In addition, New York Life has a Web site dedicated to women who are may be interested in a career with New York Life at www.nylcareersforwomen.com. New York Life has also launched a toll-free information number to provide answers to questions regarding careers in life insurance at 1-800-497-0849. New York Life is an equal opportunity employer.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Missouri Bulls, a USA Wrestling team of 14-15-
year-olds, captured the state's first-ever team championship by winning the 2005 Cadet Freestyle National Dual Championships in Kansas City.
Sikeston High School wrestling coach Ivan Robison attended with two Sikeston wrestlers, heavyweights Robert Madison and Josh Northern.
"It was a great week of wrestling, a great thing to see and be part of," said Robison. "Missouri wrestling is on the rise, gaining a lot of national exposure."
Missouri also reached the finals in the Greco-Roman competition, finishing second.
Robison acted as an assistant tournament director of the 28-team event, in addition to his coaching duties.
Madison went 4-4 on Missouri's top team, the Bulls, who defeated the Minnesota Bay Watchers 38-33 in the final.
Missouri and Minnesota were both 9-0 in the tournament heading to the final dual.
The Bulls, seeded sixth, defeated Team Washington 41-25, New Jersey 34-31 and the Pennsylvania Looney Russian Bears 35-31 in the Blue Pool on the way to the final.
Minnesota, seeded No. 1, recorded wins against Michigan (35-33), Illinois (39-29), and the Oklahoma Indians (40-29) in the Red Pool to earn a trip to the championship.
The two teams were deadlocked at 8-8, 12-12 and 18-18 after the fourth, sixth and ninth bouts of their dual, but the Bulls won the next three, two by technical falls.
Behind Missouri and Minnesota, in order of finish were: 3. Oklahoma, 4. New Jersey, 5. Pennsylvania, 6. Michigan, 7. Illinois, 8. Washington, 9. New York and 10. Indiana.
Northern competed on Missouri's second team, the Horns, which finished 11th in freestyle. Northern compiled a 2-4 record.
Also on the Missouri team were Matt and Nick Lester, twin sons of former Sikeston resident Greg Lester, who now lives in Eureka. Matt, at 98 pounds, and Nick, at 105, made key contributions to the Bulls' winning effort.
After a quick return trip to Sikeston, Robison picked up graduated Sikeston senior heavyweight Joe Johnson and headed for Enid, Okla., site of the Junior National Dual Championships (freestyle and Greco competition), held on June 28-July 3. Johnson, a two-time Missouri state high school medalist, will begin competition at 10 a.m. today.

BEVERLY - When Victoria Mimken, or "Tori" as many of her Fort Frye teammates and classmates address her, winds and delivers a pitch homeward to catcher Nicole Miller, the opposing batter had better be ready to swing the bat.
Reason being, the Lady Cadet softball hurler (12-1 with a 0.96 ERA) is always around the plate and in the strike zone. That's right, always.
In 78 innings of work so far this season, the right-handed-throwing Mimken has struck out 130 hitters and issued two free passes.
Article Photos
PAM BROOKER Special to The Times
Fort Frye softball hurler Victoria "Tori" Mimken prepares to pitch to a Caldwell batter during a PVC contest in Beverly last week. Mimken is considered to be one of the best pitchers in Ohio.
In fact, until Fort Frye's ninth game against visiting Caldwell last Thursday, its pitching staff as a whole had not walked anyone.
"I just tell our pitchers to throw strikes and not walk anybody," said veteran FFHS skipper Barb Sleek. "Make the hitters earn their way on base."
And, of course, the only way a batter is going to reach base on Mimken is by putting the ball in play - and that's a lot easier said than done. The Fort Frye junior is very stingy when it comes to allowing basehits.
"She's what you would probably call a power pitcher," said Sleek of her protege. "And she has gained a few miles per hour on her fastball this season."
A year ago as a sophomore, Mimken fanned 270 and walked 17 in 159 innings of work. Calculated further, that's an average of 1.76 strikeouts per inning and one free pass every 9.4 frames.
With Mimken toeing the rubber, Fort Frye blanked 15 opponents, and compiled a 22-5 overall record, which included a regional "Sweet 16" appearance, in 2011.
"I really believe that 70 percent of the game is pitching," Sleek said.
After the season, Mimken was honored as an All-Ohio selection.
So far this spring, Mimken has been one of the principal reasons why Fort Frye has gotten off to a 12-2 overall start. The Lady Cadets are 11-2 in the Ohio Valley Athletic Conference (OVAC) and 10-0 in the Pioneer Valley Conference (PVC).
"She mixes up and changes speeds on her pitches pretty well," Sleek said. "She has movement on her fastball, and she's been working on her curveball.
"Nicole (Miller) calls all her pitches, and she does a nice job of doing that."
Miller, a senior catcher, is an All-Ohio honoree in her own right. A letterwinner since she was a freshman, she hit .529 with six home runs in 2011.
Mimken, too, is pretty good with the stick. Often, she helps her own cause with a timely hit or two. This season, she's batting cleanup and hitting .400, Sleek said. "She hits the ball hard," the Fort Fyre coach added, and has really given us a spark at the plate."
As a power pitcher, Mimken is usually good for double digits in strikeouts almost every time she takes the hill. That means, of course, that the remaining outs have to be recorded from behind her, and Fort Frye's defense is for the most part rock solid.
Fielding the groundballs in the infield have been Lexi Huck at first, Devan Vaughn - a four-year starter - at second, Morgan Liedtke at short, and Michelle Adkins at the hot corner at third.
Hali Lemasters has occasionally been filling in at short.
Roaming the outfield have been Kyla Slack in left, Sammi Hanson in center, and Courtney Hendershot in right. Natalie Smith is the DP. With a supporting lineup like that and Mimken throwing strikes, Fort Frye has been turning a lot of heads of late. Another 20-win Lady Cadet spring on the diamond doesn't really seem so farfetched - but of course there's still a lot of season remaining. "We just try to hold teams to as few runs as possible, and score more than them," said Sleek after FFHS defeated Caldwell 9-2. "Hopefully, we come out on top."
So far, with Mimken's impeccable control as a hurler, the Fort Frye softball team has been in control on the diamond - and as a result on top.

Years ago, pre-kids, I spent several years playing lawyer at a big law firm. I had a nice office in a brand new office building that overlooked a scenic riverfront area. I had a secretary. I had a good paycheck. I had towering piles of mind numbingly boring and technical work to do.
The big kahunas at the firm liked to think of their kingdom as a collegial place to work. In fact, "collegial" was their favorite adjective. Of course, if you scratched just a little, you might get a whiff of the good ole boyness that was just beneath the surface.
One of the perks of our new office building was that the lobby area and the outdoor space along the river were often used to exhibit art, to make us all feel cultured and stuff. One day, another female lawyer and I strolled outside to have our lunch. The latest art exhibit featured larger than life nude statues of women. They were tasteful, of course. We were not in the least offended by their nudity, but we were disturbed by the fact that all of them were headless.
"Hey, they have no heads."
"Huh. How about that."
"Look, that one looks like it's trying to have a head."
"Huh. How about that."
In the end, I was disturbed that their heads didn't matter, that whoever okayed the exhibit probably didn't even notice that there were no heads, and that the collegiality was somehow failing to seep into my psyche and motivate me to want to work a life-draining 2,500 billable hours a year doing work that did not allow for any creativity. In the end, Fate intervened and my husband was transferred to another state.
Thank you, Fate, for providing me a graceful exit excuse before my head detached from my body and rolled out the door and into the river, never to be seen again.
P.S. My exit interview went something like this:
"I certainly hope you enjoyed your time here at the firm."
"Well, I learned a lot."
"I hope you enjoyed it too."
"Well, I learned a lot."

Catalysis of the reaction: 1-phosphatidyl-1D-myo-inositol 4-phosphate + ATP = 1-phosphatidyl-1D-myo-inositol 4,5-bisphosphate + ADP + 2 H(+).
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator.
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a kinase, any enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group.
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules).
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in dynamic structural changes to the arrangement of constituent parts of cytoskeletal structures comprising actin filaments and their associated proteins.
Any process that initiates the activity of an inactive GTPase through the replacement of GDP by GTP.
The directed movement of a motile cell guided by a specific chemical concentration gradient. Movement may be towards a higher concentration (positive chemotaxis) or towards a lower concentration (negative chemotaxis).
The controlled self-propelled movement of a cell from one site to a destination guided by molecular cues. Cell migration is a central process in the development and maintenance of multicellular organisms.
Cell migration that is accomplished by extension and retraction of a fibroblast pseudopodium. A fibroblast is a connective tissue cell which secretes an extracellular matrix rich in collagen and other macromolecules.
The aggregation and bonding together of a set of components to form a focal adhesion, a complex of intracellular signaling and structural proteins that provides a structural link between the internal actin cytoskeleton and the ECM, and also function as a locus of signal transduction activity.
The chemical reactions and pathways involving glycerophospholipids, any derivative of glycerophosphate that contains at least one O-acyl, O-alkyl, or O-alkenyl group attached to the glycerol residue.
The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a keratinocyte.
An endocytosis process that results in the engulfment of external particulate material by phagocytes. The particles are initially contained within phagocytic vacuoles (phagosomes), which then fuse with primary lysosomes to effect digestion of the particles.
The process of introducing one or more phosphate groups into a phosphatidylinositol, any glycerophosphoinositol having one phosphatidyl group esterified to one of the hydroxy groups of inositol.
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of phospholipids, any lipid containing phosphoric acid as a mono- or diester.
The process of directing proteins towards the plasma membrane; usually uses signals contained within the protein.
The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of components to form a ruffle, a projection at the leading edge of a crawling cell; the protrusions are supported by a microfilament meshwork. The formation of ruffles (also called membrane ruffling) is thought to be controlled by a group of enzymes known as Rho GTPases, specifically RhoA, Rac1 and cdc42.
The cellular process in which a signal is conveyed to trigger a change in the activity or state of a cell. Signal transduction begins with reception of a signal (e.g. a ligand binding to a receptor or receptor activation by a stimulus such as light), or for signal transduction in the absence of ligand, signal-withdrawal or the activity of a constitutively active receptor. Signal transduction ends with regulation of a downstream cellular process, e.g. regulation of transcription or regulation of a metabolic process. Signal transduction covers signaling from receptors located on the surface of the cell and signaling via molecules located within the cell. For signaling between cells, signal transduction is restricted to events at and within the receiving cell.

2015-2017 Ecology Budget Request
Ecology's 2015-17 Budget Request - Operating - Governor Inslee's Operating Budget Proposal for 2015-17 includes the following:
"11. Eliminate Watershed Planning Program. Ecology's Watershed Planning Technical and Financial Assistance Program provides assistance to local watershed groups to develop plans and address watershed issues. Over 30 watersheds have adopted plans since the program's inception in 1997. State general funds provided for this work are permanently eliminated. The four remaining planning units eligible for implementation grants during the 2015-17 biennium will not receive funding (located in the Wind, Chelan, Lower Lake Roosevelt and Lower Spokane watersheds), and implementation projects will no longer be funded through this program. (GF-S)"
Development and Implementation of Watershed Plans
The Watershed Planning Act was established by the Legislature in 1997 through adoption of RCW 90.82. This new planning framework was part of an integrated approach to managing water resources in Washington. Watershed Resource Inventory Area (WRIA) planning units meeting the Act's requirements were authorized to apply for funding assistance for planning and implementing watershed plans. The 1998 legislature passed Ch. 90.82 RCW, to set a framework for developing local solutions to watershed issues on a watershed basis.
A total of 44 planning units initiated Watershed Plan development with State funding between 1998 and 2012. Watershed plans were adopted by 33 planning groups. Most of these groups continue to implement priority actions from their Watershed Plans. See top map on right for more information on the individual planning areas, including links to the implementing entities.
Watershed Grant Information
2015-17 Grant Awards
Ecology has awarded grants for 12 projects that will improve water supplies, stream flow and instream habitat conditions around the state. For more information:

Taxpayers will likely pay a bit more to the Campbellsville Board of Education this year.
On Monday, Campbellsville School Board members voted that they intend to set tax rates this year to increase the District's revenue by 4 percent.
As such, the rate will increase from 49.7 cents to 53.3 cents per $100 of assessed property value.
As a result, the Board will have a hearing for comment about the rates and then formally vote on them during their next regular meeting on Sept. 9.

Dear Mrs. Budd. In 1894 a friend of mine shipped as a deck hand on the Steamer Tacoma, Capt. John Davis. They sailed from San Francisco for Hong Kong, China. On arriving there he and two others went ashore and got drunk. When they returned the boat was gone. At that time there was famine in China. Meat of any kind was from $1-3 per pound. So great was the suffering among the very poor that all children under 12 were sold for food in order to keep others from starving. A boy or girl under 14 was not safe in the street. You could go in any shop and ask for steak—chops—or stew meat. Part of the naked body of a boy or girl would be brought out and just what you wanted cut from it. A boy or girl's behind which is the sweetest part of the body and sold as veal cutlet brought the highest price. John staid [sic] there so long he acquired a taste for human flesh. On his return to N.Y. he stole two boys, one 7 and one 11. Took them to his home stripped them naked tied them in a closet. Then burned everything they had on. Several times every day and night he spanked them — tortured them — to make their meat good and tender. First he killed the 11 year old boy, because he had the fattest ass and of course the most meat on it. Every part of his body was cooked and eaten except the head—bones and guts. He was roasted in the oven (all of his ass), boiled, broiled, fried and stewed. The little boy was next, went the same way. At that time, I was living at 409 E 100 St. near—right side. He told me so often how good human flesh was I made up my mind to taste it.
On Sunday June the 3, 1928 I called on you at 406 W 15 St. Brought you pot cheese—strawberries. We had lunch. Grace sat in my lap and kissed me. I made up my mind to eat her. On the pretense of taking her to a party. You said yes she could go. I took her to an empty house in Westchester I had already picked out. When we got there, I told her to remain outside. She picked wildflowers. I went upstairs and stripped all my clothes off. I knew if I did not I would get her blood on them. When all was ready I went to the window and called her. Then I hid in a closet until she was in the room. When she saw me all naked she began to cry and tried to run down the stairs. I grabbed her and she said she would tell her mamma. First I stripped her naked. How she did kick — bite and scratch. I choked her to death, then cut her in small pieces so I could take my meat to my rooms. Cook and eat it. How sweet and tender her little ass was roasted in the oven. It took me 9 days to eat her entire body. I did not fuck her tho [sic] I could of had I wished. She died a virgin.[3]

Roscommon 1-13 Kildare 2-13
Updated: Saturday, 07 Jul 2007 18:42
John Doyle led from the front at Dr Hyde Park as Kildare booked their place in the second round of the Bank of Ireland All-Ireland Football Qualifiers.
There was no repeat of Roscommon's memorable 2003 win over the same opposition as the Lilywhites survived eight minutes of stoppage time to progress.
Doyle struck 1-08 in all with Mark Hogarty setting up his goal just before the break.
The Rossies trailed by 1-08 to 0-08 at half-time and while Karol Mannion's 47th minute goal saw the hosts go in front, a Padraig O'Neill goal, allied to Doyle's assured finishing, ensured Kildare's advance to the second round.
Allenwood ace Doyle, who lined out at centre-forward, was certainly Kildare's game-breaker but it was corner-forward O'Neill's 64th minute goal which proved to be the decisive score for John Crofton's men.
The visitors may have played against the wind in the opening half but they led by 0-04 to 0-01 after just nine minutes with Doyle registering three of Kildare's points and Roscommon's lone score coming from their only attack during this period from Cathal Cregg.
With midfielders Seamus O'Neill and Michael Finneran snaffling more and more ball, Roscommon were back on terms by the 17th minutes with Derek Connellan, Ger Heneghan and O'Neill all popping over excellent points.
Playing in towards the town end, Kildare continued to depend on Doyle for scores. His marker John Nolan was struggling to keep tabs on the Lilywhites' leading light but points from Mannion, who fisted over after a Gary Cox set-up, and a subsequent free from Cox shot the Rossies into a 0-06 to 0-05 lead.
O'Neill and Doyle replied though and big full-forward Jason Phillips made it three points in quick succession for Kildare.
Doyle was certainly on fire and he gave Crofton's charges a four-point advantage in the 33rd minute when a fisted pass from Hogarty, who had burst forward from his centre-back berth, led to Kildare's first goal.
Although Kildare had a chance to find the net for a second time just before the interval, thanks to good work from David Lyons, James Kavanagh and Michael Conway, Roscommon right corner-back Sean McDermott came in to avert the danger with a spectacular high catch and clearance.
The Rossies, who brought Enda Kenny on for Cregg at the start of the second half, upped the ante with a quick point from Cox and then Mannion was worked in for his goal.
Cox began the move, feeding the ball to David Keenan, one of the county's All-Ireland winning minors from last year. Keenan found the lurking Mannion and the full-forward's powerful shot was planted to the back of the net.
Kildare replied with gusto, notching three of the next four points as two Doyle points and a brilliant 45-yard effort from defender Emmet Bolton swamped Cox's second point of the half.
Doyle's seventh point of the afternoon levelled the sides at 1-11 apiece and although John Maughan's hosts went ahead soon after, O'Neill's goal, set up by Doyle, came at a perfect time for Kildare - especially as it preceded a poor miss from a free from Cox.
However, the game was far from over and Kildare had to endure eight minutes of stoppage time before confirming their first ever away win in the qualifiers.
They achieved it with two late points - Ken Donnelly and Doyle did the business as Roscommon's challenge petered out with Heneghan grabbing an ultimately meaningless score at the death.
Roscommon: G Claffey; S McDermott, A McDermott, P O Connor; S Daly, J Nolan, R Dooner; S O Neill (0-01), M Finneran; J Tiernan (0-01), G Cox (0-04, 2f), C Cregg (0-01); D Connellan (0-02), K Mannion (1-01), G Heneghan (0-03).
Subs used: S Purcell for O Connor (9 mins), D Keenan for Dooner (30), E Kenny for Cregg (half-time), D Hoey for Tiernan (70).
Kildare: E Murphy; E Callaghan, K O Neill, A McLoughlin; A Rainbow, M Hogarty, E Bolton (0-01); R Sweeney, D Lyons; J Kavanagh, J Doyle (1-08, 5f), K Donnelly (0-01); M Conway, J Phillips (0-01), P O Neill (1-02).
Subs used: T Rossiter for Kavanagh (53 mins), M Foley for Lyons (58), T Archibald for Rossiter (70).
Referee: John Bannon (Longford).

After a short break from radio, Ty Herndon was ready to return. His comeback song, "Heather's Wall," had become a hit video and the Alabama native was eager to give his fans a new batch of songs. Then Ty hit his own wall -- and found himself facing an unexpected identity crisis.
"I got a lot of new fans from 'Heather's Wall,' " he explains. "But people at my shows kept saying, 'Man, I had no idea you sang all of those other songs -- how long have you been doing this?' I've had four No. 1 records, three No. 2s and a bunch of Top 5s, but I don't think people really knew who I was."
Ty went to his record label and suggested postponing his planned album of all-new music, proposing instead a greatest-hits album "to remind people who Ty Herndon is," he says. "I didn't want to throw out a new album and have people go, 'Who's that guy?' "
The record company agreed, and released This Is Ty Herndon: Greatest Hits in advance of Ty's "new" album, which is now planned for release sometime next year. His recent hit, "Heather's Wall," is the bridge between Ty's old hits, like "What Mattered Most" and "Hands Of A Working Man," and the new music. Interestingly, "Heather's Wall" is a song he really didn't want to record.
"I thought it was a little too controversial for country radio," admits Ty, "because someone gets killed. But the song is about eternal love. It's about a guy who gets killed in a bank robbery, and this woman who just worshiped the ground he walked on."
Ty will never forget one particular listener's phone call when he visited a radio station. "A lady told this story about how her husband was killed in an accidental bank shooting," he says. "She said the young man who attempted to rob the bank had a wife and a baby waiting outside and they were hungry. Then she says, 'By the way, my name is Heather. You didn't know it but you've recorded the story of my life.' I was floored."
In an eerie case of life imitating art, Ty experienced his own act of random violence in April when he was mugged on a Los Angeles street.
"I'd dropped my friends off at this restaurant and there was a long line at the valet," recalls Ty. "I said, 'Aw, I'll just go park the car myself.' "
As he was walking back from his parked vehicle just a couple of blocks away from the restaurant, "these three guys jumped out of their car and held me at gunpoint. My dad once told me, 'If you're ever in a place where your mortality's questioned, see the face of God.' And that's what I did."
Then Ty was saved. "I don't know her name," he explains, "but a sweet lady lived in a nearby house. She came out her front door and yelled, 'I've called the police!' " The muggers fled. "I would've been killed if she hadn't done that," says Ty. "So, whoever you are, little lady, if you read Country Weekly, thank you!"
Ty isn't letting the incident stop him. He's recently purchased a home in the Hollywood Hills north of Los Angeles, where he's started a film and TV production company with a friend from high school. He splits his time between L.A. and the Dallas home he shares with his wife, Renee. And he's just released a new single, "A Few Short Years," from his greatest-hits CD.
"It's about hitting the road, stopping at the Texaco, buying a beer and an ice cream cone and just getting out of town," he says with a smile.
And he's getting out of town a lot this summer. "I'll be touring big time. I'd like for people to start knowing who I am again," he confesses. "And then eight months or so down the road, when people are remembering my music, I'd like to come with something really special -- the new album, which is also called This Is Ty Herndon.
"Or," he adds, "maybe I'll call it This Is Ty Herndon Again!"

Natural Running – The Book
Filed under: Books, Footwear
Danny Abshire is well versed on the in and outs of running, especially what has become know as "natural" running. Hence the title of his book, Natural Running: The Simple Path to Stronger, Healthier Running. The book's coauthor is Brian Metzler, the senior editor of Running Times.
Abshire is the cofounder of Newton Running, the maker of the line of Newton running shoes. He has worked with thousands of runners, from beginners to the Olympic elite, helping them improve their form and technique. Metzler has written about endurance sports for Running Times and other well-known magazines. Both are well versed on running.
The book, starts with a look at the evolution to a running revolution, describes 'natural running,' takes the reader through the evolution of our running shoes. From there we go to the lab, where the authors examine running form, the science of motion and gait, the biomechanics of the foot, and the whole-body kinematics of running. Then we look at common running injuries, and what they term 'natural running in an unnatural world. Then Natural Running gives techniques, drills, and an 8-week transition plan for "… faster, better, healthier running."
In his Introduction, Abshire says his goal of "Natural Running is about teaching people how to run better, more efficiently, and with fewer injuries. Natural running, for him means running the way your body was meant to run.
I found the book to be informative from cover to cover. I loved the chapter on the evolution of running shoes and how their design over time included more support and cushioning, and how studies on impact forces changed shoes. Abshire tracks the evolution of the shoes from the highly supportive and cushioned shoes to the newer shoes aimed at midfoot or natural running gaits.
The Into the Lab chapter gives a self-analysis check that athletes can use to check for alignment problems, and talks about form flaws.
The Science of Motion chapter describes in-depth the three gaits, walking, running, and sprinting, and how understanding this will help in our transition to natural running.
In Foot Biomechanics, we are given valuable information on the foot, its forefoot, midfoot, and rear foot regions. This then helps us understand the different foot types and imbalances, which in turn helps us understand overuse injuries.
In the Physics of Running, the authors explain the whole-body movement connection. Included is what happens when the foot is level, or the heel or toes are elevated, and how this affects our running as we brake, push off, and bounce through the running process. The chapter ends with a look at how footwear affects form-an important point many have not understood.
The chapter, A New Way to Look at Running Injuries, takes us through six simple steps for injury prevention. This is followed by a discussion of impact, rotational and propulsive forces as we move through the body's forward motion. Common overuse injuries are described in relation to which of the three aforementioned forces are part of their cause.
Natural Running, Unnatural World takes us through an explanation of our form and awkward deficiencies, and how to correct these faults. Then the last two chapters give us Dynamic Strength and Form Drills and a Natural Running 8-week transition plan.
This is one of the best books on natural running I have seen. Many books have been released on barefoot running and similar topics, but Natural Running is my favorite. I'd start here and read this if you are unsure whether barefoot, forefoot, or midfoot or minimalist running is for you. You will come away with the information you need to make a safe and educated transition to a form of running that can return the fun to running.
Over my years, I have run marathons and ultramarathons. All have been run in the common heavily cushioned shoes that as a 200-pound runner, I believed I needed. Six years ago, I stopped running due to a health condition. I am now able to get back into running and I want to. When I do, I will use this book to run more natural. It makes sense.
I encourage you to pick up a copy of Natural Running at your local running store of book store or Amazon.
As a disclaimer, Abshire is the founder of Newton Running and I own a pair of Newton shoes. When I get back into running, these are the shoes I will use. You'll be the first to know how I do. The link to Amazon contains my link and if you buy the book there, I earn a few pennies.

On this day 96 years ago the first woman was elected to Congress
So it looks like at least 18 women will serve in the U.S. Senate next year, a record. And it seems as though New Hampshire elected yesterday a woman governor, two women members of Congress and two senators. Impressive.
Shades of the Year of the Woman in Arizona in 1998, when all five top state office holders elected that year were women. (One of them, and the only Democrat, was Janet Napolitano – now Homeland Security Secretary, then state Attorney General.) We dubbed them the "Fab Five."
These developments, plus the fact that today is the big annual Women's Foundation luncheon in Dallas, seem to provide a good peg to note that it was on this day 96 yeas ago that the first woman won election to the U.S. House of Representatives.
I once wrote a (rejected) book proposal around identifying the 20 or 30 or whatever most up-and-coming women political leaders with the idea that the first woman president would be among them. As part of my research for the book pitch, I included a brief section on Jeannette Rankin. She was elected to Congress from Montana on Nov. 7, 1916, becoming the first woman in history to win a seat in that federal body.
(If I recall correctly, Rankin was born and raised in Missoula. After attending the University of Montana and the New York School of Philanthropy, she worked as a social worker and was leader in the gaining the right to vote for women…. I ought to see if I can find that old book proposal, dust it off, and re-read it to refresh my memory on such details and see if its prognostications stand up to scrutiny more than a decade later….)
I know her first vote as a member of Congress was to oppose U.S. entry into World War I. She was defeated two years later, but came back in 1940 to regain a House seat.

Pregnant mom, 2 children dead in Ohio crash
A pregnant woman and two of her daughters are dead after a crash in northeastern Ohio.
Authorities said a third daughter is hospitalized with critical injuries after the crash Friday night in Bedford, just outside of Cleveland.
Officials identified the woman as 30-year-old Maria Thorpe of Maple Heights. She was six months pregnant. The crash also claimed the lives of two of her daughters, ages 8 and 5. Two other daughters were injured in the crash.
Investigators said another motorist ran a red light and struck the car Thorpe was driving shortly before 10 p.m. They believe alcohol may have been a factor in the crash.
No charges have been filed.

Not Liverpool related, so sorry to the purist out there, but I'm sure most on here will be watching the CL tonight, but wondering if there are many if any "Good" reasons to watch?
The TV will say it's a spectacle for the neutrals, but I don't think I know anyone who is passionate about the game that is really a neutral. We watch because we support a club, a country, or individual players, few just go and watch a good game of football with no interest in who wins or loses.
There is plenty for us to root against. I'm sure few on here want Utd to win, but how many want to watch Real (just for Jason "Fail") Madrid go through. Some will root against Maureen others Ronnie. Maybe it's unfortunate we can't tune in and see two sides both be defeated.
But of course it's still going to be a spectacle, and for me I do still have a soft spot for Alonso and Arbeloa, which are the only two good reasons I can find, but maybe someone can find some other "Good" reasons to watch.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
I have one very good reason to tune in...in the hope that UniTURD get crushed at Old Toilet tonight and go out of the competition denying them that trophy this seasonand the earnings that come with it...oh and the other reason ..my HATRED of all things UniTURD.

Not sure I'd call that a "good" reason, but with the result I think both you and I enjoyed the very "bad" reason we watched.
No you have encapsulated all reasons to watch perfectly! I want Real to win, and I don't say that often!

Oilers go Wild once again
Thursday, 04.5.2007 / 8:38 AM MT / News
Edmonton Oilers
80 down, two to go.
With only a couple of games remaining in the 2006-07 schedule, the Edmonton Oilers are looking for that spark to head into the summer on a positive note.
On Wednesday, the club recalled forward Rob Schremp who is expected to make his NHL debut tonight. Schremp will likely see some power play time as head coach Craig MacTavish looks for some answers offensively.
"You get quality chances, you've got to put quality shots in to score," said MacTavish. "
MacTavish was quick to point out that Schremp, Gilbert or any of the other young players are not the keys to the team's success, however.
"When your veterans don't provide anything, literally, in the hockey game and your young guys are holding their own that's an indictment of them. It's not an indictment of the situation," he continued.
Nik Backstrom's performance was solid on Tuesday, but MacTavish was also quick to note that the team needs to show more offensively in order to be successful against him.
"We have a history of making the opposition's dream come true. That was pretty much it (Tuesday)," said MacTavish.
Humorously, Wild head coach Jacques Lemaire also understated his goaltender's performance.
"He's a good player. He's okay," Lemaire said on Wednesday about the league's leading netminder.
The rookie Backstrom notched his fourth shutout of the season in Tuesday's 3-0 victory. Minnesota had a goal in each period to pace themselves to the win.
"We just played enough to win," the Wild coach remarked. "We don't want to see if (Backstrom) can do it every game."
With 100 points, the Wild are essentially cemented into the seventh seed with an outside chance of catching Dallas for sixth.
"The games don't mean a lot but what it means for me is we've got to get to our game that will be close for the playoffs," said Lemaire.
ROSTER UPDATES: Edmonton – Shawn Horcoff and Petr Sykora are both questionable. Mathieu Roy (concussion) is doubtful. Jarret Stoll (concussion) is out. Ethan Moreau (shoulder) is out. Steve Staios (knee) is out. Daniel Tjarnqvist (sports hernia) is out. Jan Hejda (shoulder) is out. Petr Nedved (knee) is out; Minnesota – Manny Fernandez (knee) is doubtful. Kim Johnsson (flu) is doubtful.
OILERS TO WATCH: Rob Schremp could make his NHL debut tonight for the Oilers. In 67 games with Wilkes-Barre of the American Hockey League, Schremp had 16 goals and 50 points... Dwayne Roloson could get his final start of the season tonight versus his old team. The former Wild netminder has played well of late with his most recent outing being a 2-1 defeat against Chicago.
WILD TO WATCH: Goaltender Josh Harding might get the start tonight for the Wild. In his last appearance against the Oilers, he shut them out on March 3. Harding has spent most of the season with the Houston Aeros of the AHL but has looked good at the NHL level. In seven games, he has a 3-2-1 record with a 1.16 goals-against average and .960 save percentage... However, the Oilers wouldn't be getting a break of Niklas Backstrom got the call once again. Two nights ago, Backstrom also shut the Oilers out while making several brilliant stops. It was his second straight shutout with the previous one coming in a 1-0 shootout loss to Calgary. Backstrom leads the league with a .927 save percentage and is tied with Dominik Hasek in GAA at 2.05.

Duquesne and Chatham Swimming Teams Host Reach One, Teach One Event
Oct. 10, 2012
This fall, the Duquesne women's swimming team will be conducting the second annual "Reach One, Teach One" program on Saturday October 13th, 2012. The Dukes will partner with Chatham University's women's swimming and diving team to teach the fundamentals of swimming to the youth of Hazelwood. Following the instruction, the kids will have the opportunity to splash around in the pool and enjoy lunch.
Last spring, the program was a huge success because the swimmers were not only able to give back to the community but were also able to have some fun with the kids. It was a great feeling for the team to put a smile on those kids faces.
Duquesne's head women's swimming coach David Sheets explains, "Swimming is a life-long sport that continues way past the collegiate experience. We knew when Caitie (senior swimmer, Caitie Zajko) started this program, it was not going to be something that only lasted as long as Caitie was at Duquesne," he added.
"The reach one, teach one program gives our swimmers an opportunity to do a few things; 1. To "reach out" to the kids of Hazelwood and give our athletes and opportunity to share their love of swimming. 2. To continue "To teach" the kids some basic skills that they can carry with them past their time in the program. Each semester the program continues to grow and we see progress from some of the kids that participated before. It is truly a great program that we are proud to be a part of," Sheets said.

MONTREAL: "We Want Miles" Exhibition Open thru August 2010
We posted about this Miles Davis exhibition when it was in Paris last year and now it is open at The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts in Canada.

Miles Davis vs. Jazz
April 30 to August 29, 2010
With this exhibition, the Museum pays tribute to Miles Davis (1926-1991), one of the twentieth century's greatest musicians. The multimedia retrospective (musical excerpts, film and documentary clips, drawings by Miles Davis; paintings by Jean-Michel Basquiat and Mati Klarwein; photographs by Annie Leibovitz and Irving Penn; costumes, musical instruments and scores lent by the Davis family, etc.) recalls the highlights of his life and career, including his memorable concerts in Montreal.
It is an unusual encounter with a complex and committed character, a man of darkness and light, a protean artist, a creative genius who said of himself in 1987 that he had "changed the course of music history five or six times." The scenography, entirely designed around Davis's music and the visitor's listening comfort, includes recordings of the most iconic pieces by this legendary figure, who still arouses passionate admiration and whose influence goes far beyond the boundaries of jazz. This initial venture into the realm of jazz continues the Museum's exploration of links between the visual arts and music launched with Warhol Live and Imagine.
Also check out this BBC News video clip of Miles Davis's nephew, Vince Wilburn, Jr., talking about the exhibition, his famous uncle and the musical legacy he left behind.

It's an all-star line up, that would make any rock and roll fan, get out of their seats.
Artists like Carey Murdock, are coming home to a familiar place.
"To come home and play the Augusta area means a lot," he told News 12.
And he's back for a great cause.
"It's kind of an expensive sport in a way, so to help people just get out here and enjoy it, i am always up for that," he said.
In years past, the Rock Fore! Dough concert was on the home green of the First Tee of Augusta.
But this year it has a new home, at the Lady Antebellum Pavillion in Evans.
They made the change, so less money goes to the venue and more goes to the kids.
"This venue is alittle bit more condusive to the music, i think it will be good for the fans," said Bear Rinehart of NeedToBreathe.
Bands like his are helping to give kids a greener future.
It's just a positive thing for kids to be involved, obviously at that age there's alot of junk you can get into, and golf's a good alternative to that," he says.
Ed Rowland of the Ed Rowland and The Sweet Tea Project says there could be a bright future for these kids.
"I think it's a wonderful program, and i think it's going to be more wonderful when one of those kids grows up and wins a major," said Rowland.
A program that could possibly see the next Tiger Woods.
"And when that happens, everyones going to saying, First Tee, First Tee," he said.
With the music blasting into the evening, and bringing in a crowd of thousands, these bands got their message across.
"First Tee Charities incredible, anytime you can get kids out, inspired, and having the arts kind of kickstart it, it's beautiful," said Grace Potter, another band performing Tuesday evening.
Nothing but good music and good fun, all while doing a good deed.

Books Globalisation for Development
Globalization for Development: Meeting New Challenges (Oxford University Press 2012)
by Ian Goldin and Kenneth A Reinert
Can globalization overcome poverty or is there a danger that it will make it worse?
Globalization and its relation to poverty reduction and development are not well understood.Globalization for Development by Ian Goldin and Kenneth Reinert explores this relationship. The book defines the big historical trends, identifies the main globalization processes - trade, finance, aid, migration, and ideas - and examines how each can contribute to economic development. By considering what helps and what does not, the book presents policy recommendations to make globalization more effective as a vehicle for shared growth and poverty reduction.Globalization for Development combines the authors' real world policy experience with the latest academic research.

Reviews and endorsements:
"This book is essential reading for anyone interested in globalization and development. It provides important new insights and perspectives into how global flows of finance, trade, migrants, and ideas shape development and advances the debate by identifying urgently needed policy changes for a more inclusive globalization." -- Joseph Stiglitz, Nobel Laureate in Economics 2001 and Professor of Economics
"Globalization may need defense, but it also needs reform. The authors tell us the story so far and go on to propose ways and means of getting to a happier ending. The ways identified, based on fine empirical assessment, certainly deserve our serious attention." -- Amartya Sen, Nobel Laureate in Economics 1998 and Lamont University Professor and Professor of Economics and Philosophy, Harvard University
"This book cuts through the confusion of many discussions of globalization. In particular, it gives a clear definition in terms of the basic flows that embody interaction among countries, including trade, migration, and so on. This provides a clear analytical framework for analyzing the impact of globalization on development and thus on reducing poverty. It is a first-class piece of work and a 'must-read' for those seeking clarity on one of the great issues of our time." -- Lord Nicholas Stern, IG Patel Professor of Economics and Government and Chair of the Grantham Research Institute, LSE
"This book draws on a wealth of cross-country experience and knowledge to demonstrate that globalization has the ability to contribute to poverty alleviation, but only under certain circumstances. As such, it provides invaluable insight to development practitioners and policy makers alike. It contains not only a lucid analytical framework in which to analyze these tradeoffs, but also some invigorating ideas on how globalization can be made to work for the poor. In this, it is a vital area for anyone concerned about a fairer sharing of our communal prosperity." -- Trevor A. Manuel, Head of National Planning Commission and former Minister of Finance, South Africa
"Ian Goldin has been at the centre of action in the debate on globalization and development for a long time. His collaboration with Ken Reinert on this subject is a must for those who are looking for both courageous conceptual design and practical solutions." "Much has happened since the first edition of this skilful overview of issues in globalization and development. The recent turmoil in the Euro-zone and the world economy make this edition all the more timely." -- Kemal Dervis, Vice President and Director, Global Economy and Development, Brookings
"This analysis goes beyond theory and suggests national and global policies to be adopted in order to address the dire matter of poverty. This well written book convinces readers that globalization can be made to work for the poor and is an essential guide for practitioners in this field." -- Pascal Lamy, WTO Director-General

South Dakota: Goebel Ranch
The Goebel Ranch is located in the heart of the Prairie Pothole Region and is nestled in a portion of the Missouri Coteau where, on average, more than 100 pairs of ducks per square mile settle and breed each year. The ranch and surrounding prairie landscape contain thousands of shallow, seasonal wetlands that are ideal for duck production.
Ducks Unlimited, in partnership with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, protected the wetlands and grasslands on the Goebel Ranch with perpetual easements while also continuing the tradition of grazing cattle on the property. In cooperation with USFWS, DU restored or enhanced 20 drained or degraded wetland basins on the ranch, totaling 83.5 acres.
Since 2000, the Goebel Ranch has served as a research station and educational site where hundreds of DU volunteers, local ranchers, conservationists and others have learned about the benefits of maintaining a healthy native prairie ecosystem.
Biologists have banded more than 25,000 ducks on the ranch and more than 1,700 have been recovered by hunters. Band recoveries have occurred in 31 states, four Canadian provinces, four Caribbean countries and eight Central and South American countries. Banding activities are currently ongoing on the ranch.
Originally, DU owned 9,455 acres of the property. In 2012, DU sold 7,300 acres to area cattlemen who will continue to implement grazing practices that are beneficial to waterfowl and maintaining native prairie ecosystem. DU will retain ownership of 2,200 acres of the Goebel Ranch, allow public hunting access and maintain access to sites dedicated to DU sponsors. Duck banding efforts will continue on the portions of the ranch DU currently owns. DU also negotiated a 20 year research access agreement with the current landowners to continue duck banding and waterfowl habitat research.

David Connolly's second-half double at Fratton Park lifted Pompey off the bottom of the table at the expense of the Shakers, who are eight points adrift of safety with 10 games remaining.
Shirtliff said: "We have to win five or six of our last games but the players have to show they want it and they didn't.
"The annoying thing is we dominated this game in the first half and if we had won here it would set us up for three homes games on the trot.
"I thought in the second half we were appalling, on par with our worst this season.
"There are still 30 points to play for so we will not give up."

Strauss: We're a match for anyone
Keep up to date with England's npower Test series against India with our in-depth day-by-day reports - plus all the reaction, highlights and photos
Andrew Strauss believes England proved they have what it takes to be the number one side in the world after an "outstanding" showing against current top dogs India in the first npower Test at Lord's.
England lit up the landmark 2,000th Test with a fine team performance, declaring in both innings and bowling out a much-lauded batting line-up for under 300 twice to seal a 196-run victory.
There were standout performers throughout the ranks, including an unbeaten double hundred from Kevin Pietersen and an innings of 103 not out from Matt Prior before James Anderson's 5-65 on the final day capped a complete bowling performance.
The sides meet again at Trent Bridge on Friday, with the hosts knowing they can replace India at the top of the ICC rankings by winning the four-match series by two or more matches.
"To be number one you have to grab your opportunities and I think we did that very well in this game," Strauss said.
"It's the first of a four-match series but we've demonstrated that when we play well we're a match for anyone. Now we just have to play well again.
"We are aware that this is just the opening salvo in the series, but Lord's is a hard wicket as the game goes on and the performance was outstanding.
"They were five down at tea (on day five) and we had to work very hard to open up an end. Once we did that we finished them off brilliantly."
India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni admits his side cannot afford to gamble on Zaheer Khan if the seamer is not fully fit for Friday.
Left-armer Zaheer is India's top seamer and his new-ball battle against the England openers was thought to be key to the series. He duly removed both Strauss and Alastair Cook in a classy spell before breaking down with a hamstring strain.
Zaheer did not bowl for the rest of the match and the 32-year-old faces a race against time to be fit. However, Dhoni does not intend to risk the same thing happening again.
"We have three days but I am not 100% sure if we will play Zaheer or not," he said.
"We don't want to risk anyone if that only increases the chances of him getting injured further. It is very important to get the guys fully fit.
"After Zaheer was injured it was quite difficult in terms of resources but I felt the fast bowlers did a very good job – Praveen (Kumar) bowled really well in the first innings and Ishant (Sharma) bowled well in the second innings. Both of them bowled close to 60 overs each in the Test."
India will be hoping for an improved showing from their illustrious batting line-up as the series progresses.
Rahul Dravid scored a first-innings century at Lord's but the combined output from him, VVS Laxman and Sachin Tendulkar - who remains one away from an unprecedented 100th international hundred - was well below expectations.
Dhoni blamed an uncertain batting order following an injury to Gautam Gambhir and Tendulkar's illness for the slump.
"Yes, we could have done with more partnerships from the top batsmen," he said.
"But it was tough for some of our batsmen because most of them were batting in different slots from their original number.
"Rahul opened, Sachin had to bat at a different number, Gautam batted at a different number. That also added pressure. Most of the things that could have gone wrong in the game really went wrong. It was tough for both the bowlers and the batsmen."

An Interrupted Journey by Giovanni Diffidenti
Saturday 16 October 1999 to Sunday 28 November 1999
Pinto da Cruz (12 years old in the photograph) had fled with his family, due to heavy fighting. They returned home at the beginning of 1996. The mine was 20 metres from his house.
Pinto: We were building a new house and I was helping my family to finish the roof. My sister saw a rat and shouted for me. We started to chase and it ran down a hole and into a trench.
Uncle: There was a noise and then someone crying. I ran over and saw Pinto bleeding. I tied his leg to stop the flow of blood.
Pinto: I was taken to the hospital where I was helped by a Vietnamese doctor. There was a list of people who had been sent to Germany for treatment. I was too late…
(Pinto starts to cry, knowing that he has missed his chance to go to Germany for medical treatment)
Uncle: We know there are other mines but we don't know where they are. No one goes to that area anymore.
Since 1991, Diffidenti has been photographing landmine victims all over the world. These images are from Angola. When talking about their lives a recurrent feature is the wish to erase their personal history. It is almost as though they don't want to think of themselves as the man who once had two legs, or the child that could run, or the woman that could carry things, or the teenager who could lead a normal social life; 'Life was normal… and then I stepped on a mine.' And then the story of their life begins. Or gradually deteriorates. These richly layered portraits are a testament both to the deep humanity of Diffidenti's vision and to the strength and spirit of his subjects.

I don't think that a jsp include is like a C++ include. The jsp include

second jsp?
