Birmingham opens shelter during cold blast
Published: Wednesday, December 11, 2013 at 1:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, December 11, 2013 at 1:28 p.m.
BIRMINGHAM (AP) — Another blast of cold air is headed to Alabama, and officials in Birmingham are taking steps to protect homeless people.
The city says it will open Boutwell Auditorium as a warming shelter nightly through Thursday. Temperatures are predicted to fall into the mid-to upper 20s each night until then.
Temperatures will be even colder in north Alabama, where the National Weather Service says temperatures will dip into the low 20s.
Milder temperatures are expected in south Alabama, but officials have issued a small craft advisory because of high winds and rough conditions in coastal waters.

"Cover has been an exciting company to build, but hasn't been the best for my waistline," says founder Mark Egerman.
He and co-founder Andrew Cove want to do away with that awkward moment at the end of a meal when everyone starts padding themselves down for cash and doing math on paper napkins.
Their app, Cover, enters payment info and tip preferences ahead of time. When you walk into a partner restaurant, the app transmits a signal to a sensor at the entrance and your tab is already set up.
You still have to pull out your phone to let Cover know whether you're joining a table or starting fresh. But you won't have to touch it for the rest of the meal unless you want to bump up your tip or pay for someone else at the table. With this app you may never have to utter the words how-much-do-I-owe again.
"This is not a brand new idea. PayPal thought of this in the mid nineties," says Egerman. Many companies, including OpenTable, Square, TabbedOut, and LevelUp have all been interested in mobile payments, but they're still struggling to go mainstream. To that point, Square discontinued its wallet in March and then launched a new one specifically for ordering food.
But Cover is slowly gaining ground. Blue Hill, Momofuku Ko, Marc Forgione, L'Artusi, Toro, and Annisa are among the first 90 restaurants to adopt the app in New York and the company just opened the app up to San Franciscans. So far, 25 restaurants have taken interest. Those numbers may be growing soon too; the company just sacked $5.5 million to expand. For now it will be looking to gain traction in the cities it already operates in.
The company announced its seed round funding of 1.5 million when it kicked-off in the fall. Investor names included OATV, Lerer Ventures, AngelList founder Naval Ravikant, restauranteur John McDonald, all of whom stuck around for Cover's first series of funding. Spark Capital lead this round.

You know that controlling the portion sizes of the foods you eat will in turn help you control your calorie intake.
But there are easier ways to control portion sizes besides actually measuring out all of the foods you eat.
Rather than carry measuring cups with you throughout the day, I recommend you do what I counsel my patients to do. Here are 4 of those tips:
1. Use meal replacements. Meal replacement products are the nutrition bars, shakes and frozen meals that are already calorie and portion controlled and - most importantly - they take the guess work out of calorie counting. Yes, they may be a bit more pricey than actually making home cooked meals and snacks, however, they are often much less expensive than eating out. I recommend that you always have some of these products on hand in your freezer or cupboard for those times when you�re too busy to cook and you�re looking to eat something healthy (and calorie controlled) on the run.
2. Don�t upsize your order. Whether you�re at the movies or the fast food drive-through, you�re often confronted with �deals� that can save you money by upsizing your food order. Examples include: �For 25 cents extra, you can get a large popcorn instead of a medium,� or �You can get the large fries and drink with your order for just a few cents more.� Be prepared for these situations and practice saying, �No thank you!� Know that these money saving deals are bad for your health and only encourage you to overeat.

The External Effects of Black-Male Incarceration on Black Females
Stéphane Mechoulan
Dalhousie University
June 2007
2nd Annual Conference on Empirical Legal Studies Paper
This paper examines how the increase in the incarceration of Black men and the sex ratio imbalance it induces shape young Black women's behaviors. Combining data from the BJS and the CPS to match incarceration rates with individual observations, I show that Black-male incarceration lowers the odds of non-marital teenage fertility while increasing young Black women's school attainment and early employment. The evidence in support of a negative impact of Black-male incarceration on marriage is less persuasive. Results using prison capacity expansions as an instrument, drawing on the incarceration of presumably minor offenders, provide germane estimates of the impact of male incarceration on women's decisions.

Pro Athletes Score in Bankruptcy Court
Two professional athletes scored in bankruptcy court this week when a judge allowed them to continue chasing after their former financial adviser, a man they've accused of cheating them.
Judge Christopher B. Latham of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in San Diego lifted the shield of bankruptcy that was protecting financial adviser Bill Clay Crafton Jr. from the arbitration proceedings that two of his former clients—retired NFL player Aaron Shea and current Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels—launched last year.
The athletes say they trusted Mr. Crafton to invest their funds wisely but claim he was instead reckless with their money, violating state and federal securities laws in the process and committing fraud. Mr. Crafton has sought to defend himself against the allegations, which other pro athletes have also brought. Mr. Crafton has blamed his bankruptcy filing on the "onslaught" of litigation he's faced in recent months.
In the case of Mr. Shea and Mr. Hamels, Judge Latham found it would be more efficient to let the arbitrations go forward rather than let Mr. Crafton's September bankruptcy filing halt proceedings that were well under way, court papers show. The judge also authorized Mr. Crafton and his company to tap their insurance policies to fund their defense.

The mother of one of the soldiers gunned down in a hail of bullets at Massereene Army Barracks left court in floods of tears last Monday as graphic CCTV images were shown during the first day of the trial of the two men accused of their murders.
Sappers Patrick Azimkar (21) and Mark Quinsey (23) were killed in the callous gun attack on March 7, 2009. Four other people, including two civilians delivering pizzas to the base, were seriously injured.
All four parents of the murdered soldiers were present at Antrim Crown Court last Monday and sat just yards from the two accused as the trial got under way. Mrs Azimkar and a painfully distressed Mrs Quinsey left the courtroom as the shocking CCTV footage lasting around a minute showed the horrific incident unfold. Colin Duffy (43), from Forest Glade in Lurgan, and Brian Shivers (46), from Sperrin Mews in Magherafelt, both deny any involvement in the attack.
Delivering the prosecution's opening statement, Terence Mooney QC told the court that there was insufficient evidence to prosecute the defendants as 'principals' ie the gunmen.
However, he said that the presence of DNA linked them to the getaway car, 'making them accessories in a joint enterprise'.
The trial is expected to last approximately five weeks.
The court heard that up to 200 witnesses from as far afield as the USA and New Zealand will be called to the stand.

Amidst the anguish of recent thefts committed on defenceless pensioners and the rising toll throughout the locality of aggravated burglaries and opportunistic robberies, it would seem a new low was reached last week with the armed robbery of a popular Newry charity shop.
The local community was left reeling as news began to emerge that the British Heart Foundation charity shop on Hill Street had been robbed at knifepoint. On Wednesday, 2nd November, a staff member at the branch was left terrified when, shortly after 4.00pm, a man entered the premises brandishing a knife and demanding cash. Fearing for her life the worker handed over the money and the thief made off on foot.
Jane Flannery, Operations Manager for British Heart Foundation (BHF) shops said the theft will significantly impact on the charity.
"Thankfully our assistant shop manager escaped unhurt which is our main concern," she said.
"We're now appealing for the local community to come forward if they have any information about the incident. This incident cost £280 – a loss of vital donations to the British Heart Foundation."

Archbishop of Dublin shocked at survey into public reaction to clerical sex abuse
When Linda Byrne, the first Irish woman to complete the Dublin City Marathon, crossed the finish line in record time, her Carlow boyfriend and his family were there to cheer her on.
Linda, who trains with the-Dundrum South Dublin Athletics Club, has now qualified for the London Olympics and credits local lad Kevin Lawlor with pushing her that extra mile on the day.
"He's been a great support. He was up watching me on the day and he was cycling to different spots along the route to watch me and cheer me on," added Linda.
Twenty-four-year-old Linda was the first Irish woman to complete the Dublin marathon at Halloween. Her record time of two hours, 36 minutes and 21 seconds, means that Linda now qualifies for the 2012 Olympic Games in London.
"It's very exciting. It's been my goal the whole year; focusing on qualifying. Now I'm totally relieved and I can focus on the games."
Kevin, from Pollerton, and his parents Mary Patricia and David, as well as his brothers Diarmuid and Ronan, were all at the finish line to cheer on Linda.
"They've been great support. I go to Carlow regularly on my holidays," joked Linda, who admitted that St Laurence O'Toole's track and the Oak Park forest walk featured prominently in her training regime.
"I've been training down there a good bit. It's great to be able to use St Laurence O'Toole's and Oak Park."
Linda, who met Kevin in DCU three years ago, where they were both studying on athletics scholarships, will have a huge Carlow contingent behind her as she steps out in green, white and gold in London next year.
"It's great. It's amazing how much it means to everyone and the support I've received has been brilliant."

It has been ten years since my wife, Fran, was diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) when she was 41. With one phone call that day, our world turned upside down.
We were told up front what Fran was facing. Her induction chemotherapy would require hospitalization for more than a month. Those 34 days became the longest of my life as I tried to juggle my schedule of working, taking care of our four children, and above all, spending as much time with Fran as possible.
I was so tired after each day that I would get home and want to collapse. In addition, I experienced emotional fatigue from fearing the outcome.
What helped me the most was having someone to talk to. Fran has always said, "The day we walked into Dana-Farber, we were placed into the arms of angels." From the beginning, I knew people were there for me when I needed to talk.
I spoke with Fran's doctors daily about how her treatment was progressing, and they would always ask, "How are you and the kids holding up?" I will be forever grateful to the nurses on 7A at Brigham and Women's Hospital and our primary nurse at Dana-Farber, Diane Ransom, who always made themselves available to us and our children. Frequently they would take us aside and answer any questions we had. This support from the nurses, social workers, and doctors formed a life raft that kept us afloat through Fran's treatment.
In addition, my employer supported our family by giving me a flexible schedule and allowing me to leave work when necessary.
After Fran came home from the hospital, we had new challenges. She learned to re-enter the world, literally, one step at a time, walking down the driveway one day, down the street another. You often hear the expression "Live one day at a time," but for us it was often one minute at a time.
My mother had died of breast cancer when she was 53, but I knew that treatments for cancer had greatly improved since then. Still, I was very worried about whether or not Fran's disease would go into remission. Our social worker, Mary Lou Hackett, visited us frequently while Fran was in the hospital, and helped us face our fears. We continued to meet with her on our return visits during the year that followed, and would talk about how our experience with cancer had changed our lives.
Another way I coped with Fran's illness was to give back to the place that provided her care. During treatment, Fran required many transfusions of platelets. Her blood would not accept random donor platelets; the match had to be more precise. Along came a lifesaver: a platelet donor who not only saved Fran's life but changed mine as well. The donor was there for her at a ring of the phone.
During Fran's second round of chemotherapy, I saw the bag of platelets hanging from the pole and thought, "Since someone helped my wife, maybe I could do the same for someone else." That day, I donated platelets for the first time, and I have been donating ever since. I was also a stem cell donor for a 21-year-old man with AML, the same disease my wife had. The feeling of saving a life cannot be put into words.
Looking back, I realize that never did our children or I feel forgotten. I always had someone to talk to about how Fran's treatment was going, how I was holding up, and how the children were coping. The support shown by the doctors, nurses, and psycho-social staff at Dana-Farber helped us through the ordeal we faced.
Fran is healthy today, and after all was said and done, I wanted to give back in other ways. A year after Fran's treatment ended, I was invited to join the Adult Patient and Family Advisory Council as a family member, and saying "yes" changed my life in a way I did not think possible.
Working closely with staff, senior management, and the council members to help Dana-Farber/Brigham and Women's Cancer Center become a better place for the next patient walking through the door is an honor I will cherish forever.

A blog about food
Main St. Market
An early Christmas present arrived to the Ketchum community as of December 16th. It wasn't Santa but instead locals Steve and Karen Holzman who gave us a brand new market in the recently renovated, formerly Roxy's space on Main Street in Ketchum. Main St. Market, its new name and providing a new and fresh grocery shopping experience is its new game.
For over five years, since the closing of Williams Market in 2005, Ketchum has lived by one grocer. Then came Roxy's into the old William's market space this past summer, fashionable and trim, a dark box with mysterious potential. (Check out our interview with the builders and architects behind the glorious remodel from our fall issue of Sun Valley HOME.) Yet before anyone could adjust, before the lines could shrink at Atkinson's, it was gone. Residents had asked and received an additional store, many even shopping at Roxy's once or twice. But to the chagrin of everyone, Roxy's simply wasn't up to the task. "It was a glorified convenience store" said Karen Holzman when we spoke, "which didn't fill the niche." That niche was a downtown market carrying fresh and prepared foods, in wide varieties, for more than one demographic. Steve and Karen, having first invested in Roxy's and later seen its shortcomings, knew a change was necessary to properly fill the void.
Sleek design and fresh product. Two of Main St. Market's new mainstays.
The formal vision of Main St. Market is simple: "to establish a stylish, diverse, and healthy shopping destination in Ketchum." The importance of aesthetics in this town is undeniable, and the Holzman's new market reflects that priority. It is a stylish grocery store to be sure, with aluminum siding that runs wall-to-wall, large bold lettering to indicate sections and long windows near the front offering an unmatched view of Baldy. The vibe is warm and inviting, especially around the leather armchairs by the entrance. Main St. Market is small but the modern design somehow seems to give you room to breathe.
Stylish or not, Main St. Market doesn't want to make the Roxy's mistake. They have fresh food and lots of it. The product selection isn't overwhelming, a welcome change over the glut of items clogging most chain supermarkets. But what the Holzmans have stocked is a balance of local and premium foods; a range of wines and cheeses; beer and choice cigars and an enormous "BULK" aisle, where you can pour hearty bags of granola, cashews or the season's trendiest health seed at low prices. Basically "people need to know they can get all their grocery needs here," stressed Karen. Diversity achieved.
Left: The enormous bulk section of the Market. Right: The well-stocked wines.
It is also vital to mention the impressive work of the deli and kitchen. Busy parents and tired skiers often need meals ready on the fly, too tired or too busy to make their own. The Holzmans, parents and skiers themselves, understood this and the importance of offering hot food alongside the cold. Accordingly, Main St. Market hired two full-time chefs and a much larger group of cooks and butchers. This staff prepares dozens of foods throughout the day, including popular breakfast items. Near the entrance on the right, the glass windows of the deli are filled with fresh salads, roasted turkeys, gourmet pastas, paninis and more. The mouth-watering display speaks to the Holzman's commitment to the deli, which they emphasize is a central part of the Market experience.
Customer service is key for the new market in downtown Ketchum.
More than anything, Karen explained, Main St. Market was created to accommodate community needs. People wanted another grocery store, here it is. Shoppers asked for a well stocked deli, come take a look and try some samples. Ask a Market employee anything because customer service is understandably their principal value. Thankfully the attention and patience has started to pay off. Since opening, locals have broken rank and tried the new store and the "general goodwill has been amazing," said Karen at the end of conversation.
One woman, upon realizing the Market didn't carry her husband's favorite bread, requested that it be stocked. Management made a special order and it was stocked, but before she returned, other shoppers had bought up the item. The Holzmans decided to just stock the bread permanently, to ensure they had some every time she returned. The woman returned the favor: she shops at Main St. Market now.

The 6 Most Shocking Nebraska Stats of 2012
With 13 games in the books, here's a six-pack of shocking stats from the 2012 Nebraska season thus far. Good or bad, these are the six most attention-grabbing numbers in my estimation.[ad 6]
0 – That's the number of snaps Taylor Martinez missed this season due to injury. Not series. Not games. Snaps. There's no single statistic that's more important, or perhaps unlikely, than that one.
Martinez's time carrying the ball is about evenly split between a) running away from people and b) running into them standing straight up. It's a minor miracle that Nebraska never even had to trot Ron Kellogg III out there for one play because Martinez was "shaken up." All of the Huskers' gaudy offensive numbers this year would perhaps be drastically lower if not for that '0'. Credit to Taylor on that one. He's a tough kid.
6.09 – When you remove sacks and the yardage lost via sacks — which are better viewed as pass attempts as that was the intent — Nebraska averaged 6.09 yards per carry this year. The previous best under Pelini was 6.05 ypc in 2010.
The number 6.09 is obviously good, but it may not seem like a huge jump from 2010 but there is a difference. Eight of the Huskers' 11 opponents this year (removing Idaho State) ranked in the top half of the country in rush defense and four ranked in the top 25. In 2010, Nebraska faced one rushing defense ranked in the top 30 nationally (Texas A&M) and seven of the remaining 11 opponents ranked in the bottom half nationally.
Adjusted for strength of schedule using the Power Rank's algorithm, Nebraska averaged 6.13 yards per carry which ranks fourth nationally behind, in order, Oregon, Texas A&M, and Alabama. Not bad considering a) Nebraska played most of the season without Rex Burkhead and b) the Huskers' offensive line was never really viewed as anything other than adequate.
33.72% – More than one-third of the 341 points Nebraska allowed this year came off a Huskers' turnover. That's more than six-percent higher than any other season under Pelini. The reason why is pretty clear.
As I noted back in October, Nebraska was on pace to obliterate some of its already bad turnover numbers under Pelini. They did end up with the most turnovers (32) of the past five seasons as well as the most points allowed off turnovers (115). But the truly amazing stat is that 17 of the Huskers' 32 turnovers (53.13%) happened in Nebraska territory. The average field position Nebraska gave its opponents via turnover was at the Huskers' 47-yard line. That's the first time in at least five years that the average turnover has happened on Nebraska's side of the field.
The Huskers' opponents scored on 15 of those 17 chances (88.24%).
46.4% – Nebraska is currently the only team in the nation allowing opposing quarterbacks to complete fewer than 50-percent of their passes. The previous best under Pelini is 47.8% in 2009. Like the rushing numbers above, you have to take schedule into account but it's not as big of a gap as you might think.
In 2012, Nebraska allowed a 46.4% completion rate against a conference that averaged 58.67% overall. In 2009, in the Big 12, it was 47.8% against 60.73%. It's almost hard to believe that a secondary led by Daimion Stafford, P.J. Smith, Andrew Green, Ciante Evans, and Josh Mitchell was essentially as effective against the pass as the 2009 unit which had Eric Hagg, Prince Amukamara, Alfonzo Dennard, Larry Asante, and Dejon Gomes was but it's close.
The 2009 unit did have to defend about 1000 more passes than the 2012 unit did, so there's a gap but this year's numbers are still impressive. Bo Pelini's calling card is safe.
5.41 – That's the number of yards per carry the Blackshirts allowed this season when you shove the sack stats over on the passing side of the ledger where they belong. That ranks 104th nationally and is nearly as bad as the 5.55 yards per carry the 2007 defense — billed as the worst in school history — allowed. Adjusted for strength of schedule, that number comes down a bit — 5.09 yards per carry and 89th nationally — but not nearly enough to make it palatable.
This is a scary one for Nebraska fans. With the three starting linebackers, two starting safeties, and the best defensive tackle gone, the Huskers have a lot of work to do prior to 2013.
47 – In 38 career games, that's Taylor Martinez's total number of fumbles. That's 1.24 per game. For his career, and I'm removing the Iowa State game from 2010 when he took a couple snaps as a decoy wide receiver, he's lost 15 fumbles and put it on the turf 32 additional times but got it back. If you consider fumbles a coin-flip — and statistically you should — Martinez has been fortunate to recover better than 68% of his total fumbles. (Yes, it's different for quarterbacks because they're frequently in a position to recover their own fumbles on bobbled snaps, etc. but not nearly 20% different.)
In the offseason, ball security deserves as much attention this year from Martinez as completion percentage and mechanics did in 2012.

Why walking is a great fitness activity
Believe it or not, walking is actually a great fitness activity, and it is a great way to lose weight. It is especially good for people who either have injuries or are too old or overweight to get into heavy cardio exercise in their condition. Many doctors believe that walking for an hour is actually a lot better for losing weight than running for a half hour.
It is also great because it is inexpensive. It does not require you to buy any equipment or sign up to the gym. No matter where you live, whether you are in a city or a small town, you can walk. And it does not have to be intense at all. If you can't walk for half an hour right away, you can break it up into two sessions of 15 minutes and you will see the same results. This also makes it very easy to fit your walks in, no matter how hectic and busy your life and schedule are.
Doctors also said that walking not only helps you lose weight, but it has also been seen to lower your cholesterol, increase the strength of your bones, improve general circulation and decrease the risks of type 2 diabetes.
Walking is great because it can be seen as relaxation, not stress like a regular workout. You can listen to music while you walk at a comfortable pace or catch your latest podcast or listen to an audio book while doing it.
Getting started is very easy as well. You don't have to overdo it to see initial results. Walking three or four times a week for 20 minutes at a time is enough to see some immediate progress in your health and fitness.
Just like with any mode of physical fitness, the hardest thing about walking is keeping motivated. And just like with any exercise, the best thing to do is to set goals and to track your goals. You can get a pedometer, which is really cheap, and have it track your progress. There are also a lot of great apps for your smartphone which are used by runners and bikers but have settings for walkers too. These apps not only let you track your progress and set your goals, but you can also share your progress with a community of people who are walking all around the world.
Having a walking buddy is also a great idea. Since you are walking and not running, you should have no problem keeping up some kind of a conversation. Also, having someone come with you gives you a reason to walk every day and it makes you not skip out on workouts. Having a buddy to walk with gives you an obligation to not let them down, and this feeling is mutual.
Gradually you should increase both the speed at which you walk and your distance if you want to see maximum results. As you keep losing weight and you reach your goals, you never know, you might even end up turning into a runner eventually.
Is cardio or weight training more important for general fitness?
This is a debate that has been going on for centuries and it seems that there is never really a consensus that is reached in the end. Everyone seems to argue over whether cardio or weight training is better for overall fitness. Sure, we know that if you want [...] Continue Reading…

Stanza 1 Summary
Get out the microscope, because we're going through this poem line-by-line.
Line 1
Nothing is so beautiful as spring –
- Spring is beautiful. Nothing can compare.
- Spring calls to mind a bunch of associations, mostly having to do with rebirth and renewal.
- And flowers and sneezing.
- It kind of feels like we're getting a thesis for the poem. And with that dash, our speaker seems to be saying, "You don't believe me? Check this out…"
Line 2
When weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush;
- So weeds are growing through wheels (through the spokes of some abandoned wagon wheels, maybe). Or maybe the way the weeds curl or grow makes them look like wheels?
- Either way, the image of wheels is there, strengthening the sense of motion (the feeling of a driving force) that we also get from the word "shoot."
- A wheel also calls to mind a circle, which in turn might remind us of cycles, like the cycle of the seasons.
- The verb "shoot" also brings to mind the green shoots (noun) of sprouting plants
- The use of alliteration ("weeds" and "wheels"; "long" and "lovely" and "lush") is pretty linguistically lush.
- This line announces that the poem isn't just going to talk the talk about spring – it's going to embody, through its language, spring's freshness and creative force.
Line 3
Thrush's eggs look little low heavens, and thrush
- The eggs of the thrush look like little heavens, and this kind of bird makes a song that echoes through the woods.
- Our speaker seems to have lost the "like" between "look" and "little." Should we hop in our time machine and help him find it and put it in its place?
- Maybe instead we can notice that, by leaving out the "like," he reduces the sense of distance, brings the eggs that much closer to being little low heavens.
- The poem seems to be celebrating the heaven-on-earth feel of spring.
- A religious tone has definitely entered the poem with the word "heaven."
Line 4
Through the echoing timber does so rinse and wring
- The thrush's song echoes through the woods, and has a sort of cleansing effect. (You can listen to the thrush's song here.)
- Somebody should make an infomercial for thrush song – not only does it rinse but it can wring dry too!
- Like the last line, this one is enjambed, so we'll have to read on to the next line to know the speaker's full thought.
Line 5
The ear, it strikes like lightnings to hear him sing.
- So, the sound rinses and wrings the ear (and, by extension, the listener).
- Unless this poem has taken a strange twist, this cleansing effect is probably spiritual. It refreshes the listener, and perhaps lets him more clearly hear and experience the beauty of the world during this time of renewal.
- Also, this line tells us that the sound is striking, almost literally – the simile compares it to lightning strikes.
- Now that's some forceful and overwhelming beauty!
- The use of "lightnings" rather than "lightning" is interesting. It gives the feeling of many lightning strikes and, in that way, makes it all the more overwhelming.
- But it also sounds like something your three-year-old cousin might say. ("The lightnings are striking!") It might sound childish, but it's definitely playful and creative.
- Since the poem is dealing with creation (the world) and re-creation (spring), the use of imaginative language is fitting.
Line 6
The glassy peartree leaves and blooms, they brush
- This is like watching spring on fast-forward – the pear tree grows leaves and then its flowers blossom.
- Again, the wording is playful. "Glassy" could refer to a coat of ice on the tree, at the end of winter and the beginning of spring. Or it could just describe the drabness and bareness of the tree before the leaves and blossoms arrive.
- Our speaker runs "pear" and "tree" together, which is, yes, playful. It also goes along with the drive, the sense of rushing along (and seeing it all in fast-forward, like in time-lapse photography).
- And, again, we seem to be missing a word or two. Instead of "grows leaves" we just have "leaves." This has the effect of making the action feel more immediate, wouldn't you say?
- If we do take "glassy" to refer to ice on the tree, then "leaves" can work in a second way: the pear tree covered with ice leaves goes away and, in its place, comes a tree covered in leaves and blooming flowers. That might be a stretch, but we've seen our speaker use two meanings of a word before (like "shoot" in line 2). We're just putting it out there. You can take it or leave it.
Line 7
The descending blue; that blue is all in a rush
- The leaves and blossoms brush the sky.
- And the sky is described as "descending." Where does the sky descend from? Way up? What do you call that? Maybe: heaven, or the heavens? By using the word "descending," our speaker is implying the idea of heaven being connected to the earth.
- In this way, "descending" seems to carry on the idea that the eggs' "low heavens" put forward in line 3. Our speaker is really pushing this idea that heaven, or heavenliness, is not distant – it reaches right here to earth.
- The word "brush" from line 6 also calls to mind a paintbrush. Our speaker is, after all, painting (to use a metaphor) this scene for us.
- And he's also talking about creation, and this seems to compare the earth to a work of art. By making that comparison, there's the unspoken suggestion that there is an artist (i.e., a creator/God) who did the painting/creating.
Line 8
With richness; the racing lambs too have fair their fling.
- OK, so we if carry over from the last line, the "blue is all in a rush / with richness," the sky is hurrying down to share its brightness and beauty.
- Again there's that sense of lushness, the "sh" and "ch" sounds, and the word "richness."
- Everything we're getting so far in this poem is vibrant and full and rushing forward in its abundance. Sounds pretty nice.
- But what about the second part of the line? This is probably the oddest wording we've encountered. It's playful, and then some. "Have fair their fling"?
- We're not sure either.
- Does "their" refer to the lambs? To the leaves and blossoms? It's hard to tell.
- Maybe that confusion serves a purpose. By blurring the exact meaning, the poem is, again, closing the sense of distance. We can't pull the racing lambs apart from the blossoms and leaves, because of this linguistic ambiguity, and so they are all tangled together in this jumble of lushness and renewal and joy.
- We also get more richness of sound – the internal rhyme of "fair" and "their," the alliteration of "richness" and "racing," "fair" and "fling."
- We should also note, since we're already on high religious alert, that lambs have religious connotations. In the Christian tradition, Jesus is sometimes referred to as the Lamb of God. Christians often refer to themselves as sheep in a flock (God is the shepherd). Plus think of those manger scenes you see set up around Christmas time. Sheep are often hanging around the little baby Jesus.
- And, of course, lambs have connotations of innocence. We don't know what lambs ever did to get singled out as the most innocent of baby animals, but it's good to keep in mind.

Folded Text Effect
There are a couple of nice "folded" text effect tutorials out there, but this tutorial uses a slightly different approach to achieve the concept. We'll be creating a folded text, and a simple pattern to make it look like it's cut out from a notebook. The letter "O" will be used to illustrate the concept, as it needs a little bit extra work.
The Final Result
Tutorial Details
- Software Used : Photoshop
- Version : CS5 Extended
- Time : 1:30 – 2:45
- Paper Texture by akinna-stock.
- Grungy paper texture v.5 by bashcorpo.
Step 1
Create a new 1024 x 768 px document. Fill the Background with the color
#817d57, then, set the Foreground and Background colors back to Black and White. Create a new layer and call it Radial Gradient. Choose the Foreground to Transparent gradient fill, click the Radial Gradient icon, and check the Reverse box in the Options bar.
Starting from the center of the background, drag the gradient to one of the corners.
Change the Radial Gradient layer's Blend Mode to Soft Light.
Step 2
Place the Paper Texture on top of the Background layer, and rename its layer to Background-1.
Go to Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation, change the Saturation to -100, and the Lightness to -20.
Change the Background-1 layer's Blend Mode to Multiply, and the Opacity to 50%.
Place the Grungy paper texture on top of all layers, rename its layer to Background-2, and change its Blend Mode to Multiply.
Step 3
Create a new 300 x 300px document, and fill the background with the color
Set the Foreground color to
#d0d5de. Choose a soft round brush, and in the Brush panel (Window > Brush), modify its Settings as below:
- Brush Tip Shape
- Shape Dynamics
Start creating horizontal lines by clicking and dragging. Pressing and holding the Shift key while doing so will help you get straight lines, but remember to release it each time before clicking to create a new line, then press and hold it again, and so on.
A simple and quick trick to keep the same vertical distance between the lines is to create a square or rectangle shape, and move it downwards after drawing each line to draw the one below it.
Once you're done drawing the lines, go to Edit > Define Pattern, and type in a name for the pattern.
Step 4
Back to the original document, create the text, each letter on a separate layer, using the font Arial Black, the Size 286 pt, and the color
Then, group the letters and call the group Text. This group will be used to keep the original letters' layers, so the layers inside it won't be used, except to duplicate them and make copies.
So for each letter in that group, duplicate it, then place the copy in a separate new group that has the letter's name, then make the original letters' group invisible by clicking the eye icon next to it. This will help keep things organized.
Step 5
Select the first letter's layer (after you duplicate it and put it in its own group) – this will be referred to as the original layer, then go to Edit > Transform > Rotate, and rotate it as you like, then hit Enter/Return to accept the changes.
Duplicate the letter's layer once again, and make the original layer invisible. Right click the duplicated layer and choose Rasterize Type.
Step 6
Using the Rectangle Tool, draw a rectangle on top of the letter. Then, use the Direct Selection Tool to select the Rectangle corners and move them to create an edge that extends from one point of the letter to another.
Step 7
Select the rasterized letter's layer, and use the Polygonal Lasso Tool to select the parts outside the fold's edge, and hit the Delete key to get rid of them.
Also, for letters like the O letter, you'll need to delete the area where the fold closes the letter as well. So just make sure that the fold looks right where it is placed, and delete any extra parts around it.
Step 8
Double click the rasterized letter's layer, and apply a Drop Shadow effect using the color
Double click the fold's layer to apply the following Layer Style:
– Drop Shadow
- Color :
- Size : 8
Un-check the Use Global Light box, so that you can change the Angle and Distance values by moving the shadow on the layer directly. To be able to do this you must make sure the Preview box is checked.
So just click and drag the shadow to place it where the fold should cast one.
– Inner Shadow
- Color :
- Size : 18
Move the shadow under the fold.
Step 9
Create a new layer between the letter layer and the fold layer, call it Lines – letter. Use the Elliptical Marquee Tool to create a selection around the letter.
Pick the Paint Bucket Tool, choose the Pattern Fill in the Options bar, then choose the lines pattern to fill the circle, and change the pattern fill layer's Blend Mode to Luminosity.
The reason for creating a selection that's bigger that the letter instead of selecting the letter itself, is that those extra parts will make rotating the pattern without getting any empty parts possible. So go to Edit > Transform > Rotate to rotate the lines in the same angle of the letter, then hit Enter/Return when done.
Step 10
Ctrl/Cmd + click the letter layer's thumbnail to create a selection.
Go to Select > Inverse, then hit Delete to get rid of the extra parts.
Step 11
Create a new layer on top of the fold layer, rename it to Lines – fold. Again, create a selection and fill it with the pattern.
Change the Lines – fold layer's Blend Mode to Divide, and rotate the pattern.
Ctrl/Cmd + click the fold shape layer's thumbnail to create a selection, invert it, and delete the extra parts.
This is what you'll get.
Step 12
Repeat those same steps to create the rest of the letters.
Once you're done, you'll need to press and hold the Shift key, then Ctrl/Cmd + click every letter and fold layers' thumbnails to create a selection of the final text you have.
Click the New Adjustment Layer button at the bottom of the Layers panel, choose Levels, make sure to place the adjustment layer on top of all layers, then change the Shadows value to 75. This will darken up the final result.
Finally, move the Background-2 layer right below the Levels adjustment layer.
And there you have it!

Bishops Commend Ruling on Arizona Immigration Law
J.D. Long-Garcia
Catholic News Service
Friday, July 30, 2010
A man prays during a vigil protest against Arizona's controversial S.B. 1070 immigration law.
PHOENIX (CNS)—Arizona's Catholic bishops were among religious leaders who praised a July 28 ruling that blocked enforcement of the most controversial sections of the state's immigration law a day before it took effect.
They also voiced a hope "that reaction to (the) ruling will be expressed only in peaceful and legal ways."
Los Angeles Cardinal Roger M. Mahony and Salt Lake City Bishop John C. Wester, chairman of the U.S. bishops' migration committee, also weighed in support of the ruling by U.S. District Court Judge Susan Bolton that imposed an injunction against the key elements of the law, known as S.B.1070.
As the remaining portions of the law took effect July 29, protests, prayer services and other activities were held in Phoenix.
At an interfaith prayer at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral in downtown Phoenix, Christians, Jewish and Muslim leaders prayed that the federal government will enact comprehensive immigration reform.
"We need to remember our Christian principles, the values of Jesus Christ," Phoenix Auxiliary Bishop Eduardo A. Nevares said in a bilingual message. "We need to understand that (immigrants) enrich our society. Our movement is about achieving human dignity for everyone on our shores. So let us not become the oppressors, but instead put on the fruits of the Holy Spirit."
United Methodist Bishop Minerva Carcano spoke of the Gospel's call to welcome the immigrant, saying S.B.1070 runs counter to that message.
"The concept is this: enforcement through attrition, to make life so difficult for immigrants that they leave the state," the bishop said.
Since the April signing of the law, immigrants have been leaving. But, despite their departure, the state's economy hasn't improved, Bishop Carcano said.
"We will no longer tolerate our government leaders' political posturing on immigration," she said. "President (Barack) Obama needs to know we no longer forgive his lack of leadership on immigration reform."
Many of the speakers noted the prayerful efforts of an interfaith group who held a vigil on the state Capitol lawn for 102 days.
"I always had a lot of faith. We made this effort to stop the law," said Rosa Maria Soto, who prayed with the group hours after the judge's ruling.
"But we have to keep working, we must keep nurturing our faith," she said. "I feel like the judge stopped those aspects which would have affected us the most, but we know the fight could last years."
Margaret Wolford and other members of Pax Christi Phoenix also went to the Capitol after the ruling. She described her reaction as "cautiously optimistic."
"The judge struck down the meat of it, but there's still a way to go," Wolford said. "The most harmful part of this bill is the fear it's put in our immigrant population, and also the fear of immigrants is provoked in others."
That fear is tearing the community apart, according to Susan Frederick-Gray, a Unitarian Universalist minister who spoke at the interfaith prayer service.
In his statement July 28, Cardinal Mahony praised the ruling. "This entire Arizona attempt to deal with various immigration issues outside federal law reveals once again the level of frustration across the country that the U.S. Congress will not deal with, the pressing issue of needed immigration reform," he said.
"Without needed congressional action, local communities and states will continue to propose stopgap measures which do not address all aspects of needed immigration reform," he added.
Bolton blocked provisions in the law that would have: required law enforcement officers to verify the immigration status of anyone stopped; made it a crime for immigrants not to carry proof of their immigration status at all times; allowed police to make warrantless arrests over suspicion of someone being in the country illegally; and criminalized the act of looking for work without the proper paperwork or hiring someone who lacks a work permit.
Bolton's injunction is preliminary, pending further judicial review of legal challenges, primarily that of the U.S. Department of Justice. A full course of legal challenges could take years.
Other provisions were allowed to take effect, including one permitting lawsuits against individuals, state agencies and political subdivisions for "adopting a policy of restricting enforcement of federal immigration laws to less than the full extent permitted by federal law."
In his statement, Bishop Wester called the ruling "the right decision."
"Any law that provides legal cover to profiling affects all members of our communities, including legal residents and citizens. It is a very slippery slope. What is needed now is for Congress and the administration to live up to their responsibilities and address this issue by passing immigration reform."
The Arizona bishops, in a statement issued by the Arizona Catholic Conference, their public policy arm, said apprehension about the law was widespread.
"We know that in practically every parish there are families that have been living with the fear and anxiety generated by S.B.1070 that they might be torn apart," they said.
"The situation of these families might be that one parent is a citizen and that the other is not in our country legally. Or, the situation might be that some children in the family are citizens and that a brother or sister is not here legally," they said. "Our hearts go out to these families. We know them to be good people who work hard and who contribute to the economy and to the quality of life of their communities.
The four Arizona bishops include: Bishop Gerald F. Kicanas of Tucson; Bishop Thomas J. Olmsted and Auxiliary Bishop Eduardo A. Nevares of Phoenix; and Bishop James S. Wall of Gallup, N.M., whose diocese includes part of northern Arizona.
Their statement reiterated their support for a federal comprehensive immigration reform law as a way of dealing with immigration-related problems at a national level instead of state-by-state.
On the lawn of the state Capitol shortly after Bolton's ruling was announced, participants in a 102-day prayer vigil there acknowledged a long road lies ahead before the law is no longer a threat.
"I always had a lot of faith," said Rosa Maria Soto, a parishioner at St. Augustin in Phoenix. "But we have to keep working, we must keep nurturing our faith."
"The positive thing about this bad law is that it woke us up and it united us," she told
The Catholic Sun
, newspaper of the Phoenix Diocese.
Another vigil participant, William Robles, part of Peace Walkers movement, a parishioner of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Guadalupe, acknowledged that despite the day's legal victory, "we also know it's not over."
"We're going to keep fighting until we can get peace," he said. "We're hoping S.B.1070 gets completely disassembled."
Deacon Keith Davis, of St. Thomas More Parish, said he was grateful "that reason prevailed. I'm hoping that the federal government will start acting. I think we can all agree to that."

My 2003 mustang convertible was recently hit by 86 year old woman. Damage totaled about $3500.
What I need to know is if a 2003 Shelby hood and bumper cover will fit on the base convertible?
The 2003 SVT Cobra bumper and hood will fit as a unit. The bumper without a hood will only fit the car with a stock hood with modifications.
You'll also need new fog lights and the buckets that hold them.

7-ALPHA-HYDROXY-DHEA Overview Information
7-alpha-hydroxy-DHEA is a by-product of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) that is formed in the body. DHEA is a "parent" hormone produced by glands near the kidneys.
People take 7-alpha-hydroxy-DHEA to lose weight, increase lean body mass and muscle, boost the immune system, improve memory, and prevent aging.
How does it work?
There is interest in using 7-alpha-hydroxy-DHEA to prevent aging because levels of this substance drop with age. Some people think replacing it might promote youthfulness. 7-alpha-hydroxy-DHEA might also stimulate the immune system and might act like an antioxidant.
7-ALPHA-HYDROXY-DHEA Uses & Effectiveness
Insufficient Evidence for:
- Promoting weight loss.
- Increasing lean body mass.
- Building muscle.
- Boosting the activity of the immune system.
- Improving memory.
- Preventing aging.
- Other conditions.
7-ALPHA-HYDROXY-DHEA Side Effects & Safety
There isn't enough information available to know if 7-alpha-hydroxy-DHEA is safe or what the possible side effects might be.
Special Precautions & Warnings:Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Not enough is known about the use of 7-alpha-hydroxy-DHEA during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use.
7-ALPHA-HYDROXY-DHEA Dosing
The appropriate dose of 7-alpha-hydroxy-DHEA depends on several factors such as the user's age, health, and several other conditions. At this time there is not enough scientific information to determine an appropriate range of doses for 7-alpha-hydroxy-DHEA. Keep in mind that natural products are not always necessarily safe and dosages can be important. Be sure to follow relevant directions on product labels and consult your pharmacist or physician or other healthcare professional before using.

LICK CREEK, Ky (WYMT) - The East Ridge Warriors are coming off a 1-9 season in class 3A District 8, but this season they dropped out of district play, and are now independent.
"Since we've dropped out of district play and have our own independent schedule now, our student athletes have came out excited. You know we have a new life out there with our football program, a lot of younger kids are coming out interested in playing. This is just a big step for us to get our football program off the ground to get it in the right direction," Said Coach Allen.
Senior Left Tackle Jordan Standifur agreed with his coach, "It can make us skyrocket. It can get our confidence up it can get our players ready to go. It opens the chance for us to win some games and that we can all do it and believe in ourselves."
The warriors only lost two starters from last season, with a year of experience they are raising their expectations for the season.
"Entering the season we expect to step and be leaders up all of our seniors are we're having a lot of returning players, we didn't lose much last year so we got most of the starters back," said Senior Quarterback Jacob Skeens.
Senior linemen Derek Bailey and Markus Freeman both agree saying they want to leave behind a great mark on this team.
"As a team that wins games classy, a team that works hard tries hard, goes for the most and lines up and plays football," said Bailey.
"I want to have a winning record. Train younger men to take our spot after we leave so the program continues to grow," said Freeman.
Coach Allen says his team is working hard in practice and can't wait for week zero.

One of the critics of the president's planned address to the nation's school children now says it's "a good speech."
Florida Republican party chairman Jim Greer had said last week that he was "absolutely appalled that taxpayer dollars" were being used to spread what he called "President Obama's socialist ideology."
Greer tells ABC News that he now favors the speech after changes were made to supporting materials for teachers and to the speech itself. He says the remarks stress the importance of education and encourage kids to stay in school.
White House spokesman Robert Gibbs has called the harsh criticism "a sad state of affairs." Gibbs says opponents would rather start an "'Animal House' food fight" rather than inspire children.
The White House has posted Obama's remarks on its Web site. He's scheduled to deliver the talk from a suburban Virginia school. It will be broadcast live on C-SPAN and on the White House Web site.

AbstractIn cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy, the beneficial effects of radiation can extend beyond direct cytotoxicity to tumor cells. Delivery of localized radiation to tumors often leads to systemic responses at distant sites, a phenomenon known as the abscopal effect which has been attributed to the induction and enhancement of the endogenous anti-tumor innate and adaptive immune response. The mechanisms surrounding the abscopal effect are diverse and include trafficking of lymphocytes into the tumor microenvironment, enhanced tumor recognition and killing via up-regulation of tumor antigens and antigen presenting machinery and, induction of positive immunomodulatory pathways. Here, we discuss potential mechanisms of radiation-induced enhancement of the anti-tumor response through its effect on the host immune system and explore potential combinational immune-based strategies such as adoptive cellular therapy using ex vivo expanded NK and T cells as a means of delivering a potent effector population in the context of radiation-enhanced anti-tumor immune environment.

PARKERSBURG - Parkersburg native Justin Logue is interested in starting a home brewing club in his hometown.
Logue, 24, is studying exercise physiology at West Virginia University in Morgantown and is calling the club the Infamous Parkersburg Alers (IPA).
"I needed a hobby because I didn't have one," he said. "It sounded interesting so I picked it up last year."
Logue will be out of school soon, and is excited to return to his hometown to look for a part-time job and begin to leave his mark on the community.
"There are clubs up here but I never joined one because I was just here temporarily," Logue said about Morgantown.
"I started searching in Parkersburg, and I found one that started and kinda died out," he said. "It got me thinking I should go ahead and start my own."
Logue said he has had a lot of interest in the club. His friends and people have seen him advertising for it on his Facebook page afterhe made one dedicated to the club.
The first meeting of the club will be held at the North End Tavern and Brewery at 3 p.m. Sept. 9.
"We can do different things, something like inner club brewing competitions and style nights," Logue said. "Style night is where everyone brings certain styles of commercially made beer to compare with home brews."
Logue plans to be the one conducting the meetings, but would like to leave the style of the club more "laid back" so that all members have the option of contributing ideas for future meetings.
Dues will be asked for yearly, at $20, with prizes and raffles taking place on special nights. Meetings may be on a rotation and take place at members' homes after the first official meeting takes place.
"We can have a prize night where club dues go toward a brew pot," he said. "And raffle that off each night."
Logue said it feels great to be a part of bringing something like this to the area.
"It feels great to be the only one (home brewing club) in Parkersburg," he said. "It's always good to get involved with the community."
Logue plans to stay in the area long term, so this club could be around a long time. Updates such as meeting times and dates for the group will be posted on the Facebook page regularly.
