It's no great stretch to imagine the chiseled, hot-footed hottie Channing Tatum as a stripper. It's how he got his start in show business, after all.
And even though Matthew McConaughey never danced for his dollars, he hasn't been shy about shedding a shirt on the big screen.
But that's the simple genius of Steven Soderbergh's Magic Mike, a fictionalized spin on Tatum's pre-Hollywood years in Florida, taking it off for ladies who stuffed tips into his thong. The casting does most of the work in this very entertaining dramedy set in a sexy and seedy world of male exotic dancers.
From the moment McConaughey, as the veteran owner of the Xquisite Dance Revue, struts onstage to introduce his ensemble, we know we're in good, um, hands. Soderbergh's direction here is like stripping itself — the selling of a fantasy, a tease. It's only as the film progresses that the sobering reality of living in this sordid world is stripped bare.
Tatum has the title role. By day, he's a hustler with off-the-books businesses. By night he is "Magic" Mike, the break-dancing star of the Xquisite Dance Revue.
Soderbergh, working from Reid Carolin's script, revels in the backstage "making of a stripper" scenes, as The Kid (Alex Pettyfer), a hunky college dropout, is trained to do the routines.
Magic Mike drifts into melodrama at times, and Pettyfer (I Am Number Four), though adequate, struggles to make an impression with a character that is little more than a cliché.
But Soderbergh, Tatum and McConaughey strip this world of glitter and body oils. They let us know that for all the supposed fringe benefits, these guys work hard for the money, and that creating every woman's fantasy takes a lot of fantasizing on the part of the toy boys, too.
B Directed by Steven Soderbergh. R (pervasive sexual content, brief graphic nudity, language and some drug use). 110 mins. In wide release.

Waterfowl hunting in New Jersey is a diverse recreational activity. Garden State waterfowlers can pursue 28 species of ducks and five species of geese in a variety of habitats from small beaver ponds to the Atlantic Ocean. The New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife sets duck seasons within federal guidelines. The current, 60-day duck season structure in Atlantic Flyway states including New Jersey must occur between the last Saturday in September and the last Sunday in January with no more than two season splits within each zone.
Selecting hunting season dates for migratory game birds is a balance between science and social factors. The challenge for state wildlife agencies is to develop migratory game bird season dates that conform to federal frameworks yet account for migration patterns, average weather conditions, hunting traditions and the preferences of their hunters. Because of the diversity of habitats waterfowlers hunt, time spent pursuing additional quarry (e.g.: deer, striped bass), competition with work schedules and other conflicts, it is not surprising that many hunters have different opinions on waterfowl season date selections.
This diversity of opinions can make selecting annual waterfowl season dates challenging and at times contentious. One of Fish and Wildlife's primary goals is to select dates that satisfy the majority of the state's waterfowl hunters, recognizing that season date selections will not satisfy all waterfowl hunters. The best way to ascertain hunters' preferences is to conduct an unbiased, statistically valid survey of hunters who pursue waterfowl in the state. In order to better serve the state's duck hunters, Fish and Wildlife conducted this type of survey during the winter of 2012–13.
The primary objectives of the survey were to measure the importance of several elements annually considered when setting waterfowl seasons and also to determine hunters' preferences for duck season frameworks within each of the state's three waterfowl zones. Surveys were sent via U.S. mail to a random sample of 1,080 individuals who received Harvest Information Program (HIP) certifications in New Jersey during the 2011–12 hunting season and who indicated that they hunted ducks during the previous year. The sampling rate was 16 percent for individuals who had hunted ducks. The survey response was 40 percent.
Nearly half (48 percent) of duck hunters only hunted in one zone while 8 percent of respondents hunted ducks in all three zones (Figure 1). The most common zone crossover occurred between the South and Coastal Zones.
Hunters were also asked in which zone they hunted ducks most frequently; we used this response as a cross-reference when analyzing season framework preferences within each zone.
Hunters ranked how important eight particular elements were to them in the annual consideration of waterfowl seasons. Hunters ranked the desire to maximize the number of Saturdays within the season, as well as to have opening days and closing days occur on Saturdays as high importance. Conversely, there was little support to have opening days occur on weekdays. Hunters indicated that it was very important that duck seasons be open to include Thanksgiving as well as the Christmas to New Year holiday period. Waterfowl hunters did not rank potential conflicts with other hunting seasons (e.g. deer) as being important. Hunters indicated that overlapping duck seasons with Canada goose seasons as somewhat important, even if it meant fewer goose hunting days in January.
For each of the three waterfowl zones (North, South, Coastal), hunters were presented with three choices for a duck season structure and asked to identify which season structure they preferred. The choices within each zone were the season structures that have been most frequently suggested by various waterfowl hunting organizations over the past several years. In all zones, one choice was to maintain the recent season structure which was described for each zone. For each zone, we analyzed results separately for all respondents as well as for hunters who indicated that they hunted in that particular zone most frequently.
In this article, we present hunter preference results from individuals who indicated that they hunted most in that particular zone. For example, results from the Coastal Zone are from individuals who hunted ducks most frequently in that zone. It is appropriate to examine respondents from individuals who hunt most often in a particular zone for three reasons:
In the Coastal Zone, the majority of hunters (by a 5:4 margin) preferred the option to hunt later into January over options to have traditional or more hunting days during the first season split in November (Figure 2). Similarly, the option to hunt later into January by taking days from the first split was preferred by the most (44 percent) South Zone hunters (Figure 3). The two other options received less support as a first preference in the South Zone.
North Zone duck season preferences were the least clear. Thirty-eight percent of respondents who duck hunted primarily in the North Zone preferred an option to hunt later in the season by cutting the first split in October. However, about half of hunters were nearly equally split between retaining two Saturdays in the first split and an option to make the first split even longer. As such, North Zone duck hunters seemed to prefer to retain at least two Saturdays in the first split when compared to moving hunting days from October into January by about a 5:4 ratio (Figure 4). The ambiguity in North Zone season preferences is likely partially attributable to the recent, frequent changes to the North Zone season structure. The North Zone season structure was changed in three of the last four years.
Although Fish and Wildlife and the Fish and Game Council receive input from hunters on duck season dates throughout the year, it cannot be certain that these comments are representative of the majority of duck hunters. Statistically designed surveys are important for obtaining unbiased data regarding the preferences of user groups. The survey results weighed heavily in 2013–14 duck season date selections and will be considered in future years. Although some hunters may not be satisfied with 2013 season dates, it is reasonable to keep the season date structure similar for several years before considering season structure changes. Repeating a hunter opinion survey at periodic intervals (e.g. every three to five years) is also prudent.
Full reports on the 2012–13 Duck Hunter Survey and an additional report, Patterns of Duck Hunting Activity and Success in New Jersey 1999–2011, can be found on the Waterfowl and Migratory Birds in New Jersey page of Fish and Wildlife website.
Regulations in red are new this year.

Violence and suicide caused by antidepressants
On March 22, 2004 the FDA issued an extraordinary Public Health Advisory that cautioned about the risks associated with the new generation of antidepressants (Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil, Luvox, Celexa, Lexapro, Wellbutrin, Effexor, Serzone, and Remeron). The warning followed a public hearing at which dozens of family members of victims testified about suicide and violence committed by individuals taking these medications.
While stopping short of concluding the antidepressants definitely caused suicide, the FDA warned that they might do so in a small percentage of children and adults. In the debate over drug-induced suicide, little attention has been given to the FDA's additional warning that certain behaviors are "known to be associated with these drugs," including "anxiety, agitation, panic attacks, insomnia, irritability, hostility, impulsivity, akathisia (severe restlessness), hypomania, mania."
From agitation and hostility to impulsivity and mania, the FDA's litany of antidepressant-induced behaviors is identical to those induced by PCP, methamphetamine, and cocaine, drugs known to cause aggression and violence. These older stimulants and most of the newer antidepressants cause similar effects as a result of their influencing brain levels of the same neurotransmitter, serotonin.
A new FDA warning issued on January 31, 2008 declared that yet another group of chemical agents used to treat mood disorders carried the risk of "symptoms such as anxiety, agitation, hostility, mania and hypomania" which "may be precursors to emerging suicidality." This time the culprits are antiepileptic drugs – medications used to control seizures. Because they cause sedation, these drugs are commonly used in psychiatry as "mood stabilizers." As a result of an orchestrated psychiatric campaign to diagnose children with "bipolar disorder," increasing numbers of children are being given these drugs.
This group of anti-seizure medications includes carbamazapine (brand names Tegretol, Equetro), gabapentin (Neurontin), lamotrigine (Lamictal), topiramate (Topamax), and valproate (Depakote). All of these drugs are being prescribed for varying psychiatric purposes, including the treatment of anxiety, depression and bipolar disorder.

Arrest made in 1999 murder case in Raleigh
Police in Raleigh say they have arrested a suspect in a murder that took place on Christmas Day more than a decade ago.
The News & Observer of Raleigh reports that police say 59-year-old Alfonso Montoya Hernandez is accused of killing Pedro Castillo Gallegos at a home in East Raleigh on Dec. 25, 1999. Hernandez was arrested in North Dakota and is awaiting extradition back to Raleigh.
Gallegos was 28 at the time of his death. He had been stabbed and cut when police arrived at a residence around 4:30 that Christmas morning.
Police said Hernandez was quickly identified as a suspect, but was thought to have fled the United States. Because of the pending warrant for his arrest, U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents arrested him Wednesday.

As of September 12, 2012 (2012 -09-12), Apple's App Store contained more than 700,000 iOS applications, which have collectively been downloaded more than 30 billion times. It had a 23% share of the smartphone operating system units sold in the first quarter of 2012, behind only Google's Android. In June 2012, it accounted for 65% of mobile web data consumption (including use on both the iPod Touch and the iPad). At the half of 2012, there were 410 million devices activated. According to the special media event held by Apple on September 12, 2012, 400 million devices have been sold through June 2012.

Laura Benanti
Jump to
With her grace, confidence, and innate love for theater, Laura Benanti was destined to be a star. She started making waves on Broadway, earning a slew of accolades for her electric performance as an awkward young woman-turned-sexy siren in the 2007 Broadway revival of "Gypsy." While Benanti's passion for the stage was at her core, she also carved inroads on television and in film. She had a lead part on the short-lived comedy series "Starved" (FX, 2005) and played Antonio Banderas' lovelorn assistant in the musical feature "Take the Lead" (2006). Benanti also appeared on the dramedy series "Eli Stone" (ABC, 2008-09), about an attorney who suffers through surreal visions. In 2011, the spotlight was finally cast upon Benanti after she landed the lead role on the drama series "The Playboy Club" (NBC), about the original Chicago nightclub in the early1960s. The role widely exposed Benanti's talents to a more mainstream audience, paving the way for more exciting opportunities to follow.

Season's Greetings from the Valley sports teams
It hasn't been the easiest of years as far as many of the Valley's pro teams are concerned. But for a few days, the players, coaches and members of the front office from each of the four respective teams (Arizona Diamondbacks, Arizona Cardinals, Phoenix Coyotes and Phoenix Suns) have a chance to sit back, relax and share some of their holiday wishes with fans.

EAST PRAIRIE -- After serving the city of East Prairie for nearly 20 years in a variety of positions, Lonnie Thurmond is now taking the helm as city administrator.
Thurmond was officially appointed to the position by the Board of Aldermen during their regular meeting Aug. 10. A letter from East Prairie Mayor Gene Ditto regarding the board's decision appears on the editorial page of today's Standard Democrat.
"With my familiarity with the city government, I became the prime candidate to fill those duties," Thurmond said.
Thurmond's service to the city began in 1989 when he became an alderman, a position he held until he became the city's mayor in 1993.
When the former city administrator, the late Kathie Simpkins, became ill, Thurmond resigned as mayor to become employed by the city as its community developer.
"Since I became employed, I worked side-by-side with Ms. Simpkins on the day-to-day operations," Thurmond said. "She continued to be the city administrator but there were times she wasn't able to be here. During those times, those duties would be my responsibility, so I'm really familiar with the day-to-day business."
Before becoming the city administrator, Thurmond had several other duties such as code enforcement, property maintenance, building inspections, preparing grant applications, managing grants and working with local businesses on the revolving loan fund.
"There were several day-to-day duties that included those things along with managing things in the absence of Ms. Simpkins," he said.
Thurmond said he is now ready to take on the challenges of being the city's administrator.
"I want to be able to make some priorities that have not been priorities before. I'm working on that now," he said. "We're going to make a strong effort of bringing the city to a better standard of living."
One of the goals is getting rid of dilapidated buildings. The city is presently looking for a police officer to hire as a code enforcement officer.
"Hopefully will have someone hired in the next 30 days," Thurmond said.
Thurmond said Simpkins "was one of the best administrators of any business, let alone a city" and that he is still settling in to his new position.
"It's going to take me a few days," Thurmond said. "Organization will be one of the biggest things I'm undertaking in the next few days. I'm just in the preparing stages but there's a lot of things I want to see changed and made better for everybody."

Today, Hostess Brands inc. — the company famed for its sickly sweet desert snacks like Twinkies and Sno Balls — announced they'd be shuttering after more than eighty years of production.
But while headlines have been quick to blame unions for the downfall of the company there's actually more to the story: While the company was filing for bankruptcy, for the second time, earlier this year, it actually tripled its CEO's pay, and increased other executives' compensation by as much as 80 percent.
At the time, creditors warned that the decision signaled an attempt to "sidestep" bankruptcy rules, potentially as a means for trying to keep the executive at a failing company. The Confectionery, Tobacco Workers & Grain Millers International Unionpointed this out in their written reaction to the news that the business is closing:
BCTGM members are well aware that as the company was preparing to file for bankruptcy earlier this year, the then CEO of Hostess was awarded a 300 percent raise (from approximately $750,000 to $2,550,000) and at least nine other top executives of the company received massive pay raises. One such executive received a pay increase from $500,000 to $900,000 and another received one taking his salary from $375,000 to $656,256.
Certainly, the company agreed to an out-sized pension debt, but the decision to pay executives more while scorning employee contracts during a bankruptcy reflects a lack of good managerial judgement.
It also follows a trend of rising CEO pay in times of economic difficulty. At the manufacturing company Caterpillar, for example, they froze workers' pay while boosting their CEO's pay to $17 million. And at Citigroup, CEO Vikram Pandit received$6.7 million for crashing his company, walking off with $260 million after the businesslost 88 percent of its value.

Definition of locule in English:
nounchiefly Botany
Each of a number of small separate cavities, especially in an ovary.
Example sentences
- Other morphological characters, such as the low number of stamens or ovary locules, and the sometimes rather unspecialized nectarial bracts, could also point towards a close relationship between these two genera.
- The number of orbicules present on the locule surface is well in excess of the number of pollen grains within the locule.
- Parenchyma cells of the pith were packed more closely, especially near to structures such as the locules and vascular bundles.
- Example sentences
- When they reach maturity, they are released from the bundle and reach the locular lumen and the efferent ductule.
- Those to each sepal typically retain their identity as they slope beneath the locular area.
- Each septum is composed of the locular membranes of adjacent fruit segments with intervening spongy mesocarp-like parenchyma.

On kapama we have three species of chelonians; the Speke's hinged tortoise, the leopard tortoise and the Marsh terrapin.
The most elusive of the big 5, is ironically is the most common of the "small" five.
The Leopard tortoise (Stigmochelys pardalis) also known as the Mountain Tortoise is the most common and largest tortoise in Southern Africa. For a species to be considered the most common it usually means that its adaptive skills are the best suited for their surrounding environment, and are absolutely opportunistic.
Scientific names are given to all animals, plants etc. to avoid confusion of multiple countries common names. The scientific names are also very descriptive of the animal in question. The generic name Stigmochelys is a combination of two Greek words: stigma meaning "mark", "spot" or "point" and "chelone" meaning tortoise. The specific name pardalis is from the Latin word "pardus" meaning leopard and refers to the leopard-like spots on the tortoise's shell.
In actual fact they float, this is due to their buccal cavity and dome shaped shell permitting greater lung size which is inflated. The buccal cavity is usually used as a water reservoir, keeping them hydrated in even the harshest environments. After inflating their lungs and buccal cavity they can cross dams and rivers bobbing around like a bottle cork, this adds to the statement that they are the most widely distributed tortoise in Africa. It is said that a leopard tortoise can be submerged for up to 10 minutes.
"Thanks to its very large, but light, domed shell, the Aldabra giant tortoise floats even more impressively. In 2004 a tortoise washed ashore on the Tanzanian coast, having survived the long drift from Aldabra Atoll. The weak and starving tortoise was covered in barnacles, and must have been drifting at sea for a long time. The ability to float not only saved this individual, but also saved the species from extinction."
An average leopard tortoise grows to a length of 500mm and weighs around 18kg. Very large examples found in Zoo's around Southern Africa are between 700 and 800mm and weigh around 50kg. The African Leopard Tortoise typically lives 80 to 100 years.
A very long-lived animal, the leopard tortoise is seldom sexually mature until it is between the ages of 12 and 15 years. Leopard tortoises "court" by the male ramming the female. While mating, the male makes grunting vocalizations. After mating, the female lays a clutch consisting of between five and 18 eggs. This enormous tortoise (4th largest in the world) starts from an egg about the size of a golf ball.
Leopard tortoises do not dig other than to make nests in which to lay eggs, butt will sometimes be found in abandoned warthog and anteater burrows. They use these burrows to escape from veldt fires, and extreme weather conditions.
The skin and background colour is cream to yellow, and the carapace is marked with black blotches, spots or even dashes or stripes. Each individual is marked uniquely.
The other terrestrial shelled vertebrate to grace Kapama with its company is the Speke's hinged tortoise (Kinixys spekii) , unlike the rounded dome of the Leopard tortoise the Speke's has a longer, flattened carapace (top half of the shell).
This species is named after Captain John Hanning Speke (1827 – 1864), English explorer and discoverer of the source of the Nile river.
Most terrapins etc have a hinge at the front of the shell that closes up the front part of the shell to protect the head and front legs (that do most of the paddling or swimming). But in the case of the Speke's with a well developed posterior hinge, which the movement is more prominent in females, the function is to open up the shell (rather than close) when she is laying her eggs. In this species the male also has a distinctively longer tail than the female.
A couple of interesting facts about tortoises in general:
A tortoise shell is actually an extension of the back vertebrae, so the old folk tale that a tortoise can climb out its shell is a fallacy. The image below shows the internal structure of a tortoise, take special note of the vertebrae extending into the protective shell.
The picture on the left indicates the Carapace (or top half of the shell) and the picture on the right indicates the plastron (or bottom half of the shell).
The plastron can be used for the determining of sexes. Females possess a flat plastron, yet males have a more concave one. This function is for copulation purposes.
The carapace is dived into sections or oscoots, the oscoots can be used to get a rough estimate of the age of a tortoise. Much like the year rings in a tree each oscoot shows the year rings of a tortoise.
There is still a mountain of information about our chelonian friends, but more about that next time.

The past few days have been a lot of fun. To start, in about an hour of our game drive, we saw a beautiful female cheetah drinking water at a close-by mud pan. While viewing her, out of the blue, far off the road, 3 lionesses were making their way towards us. Sadly the cheetah ran off, but we had a great sighting of the 3 lionesses. Then we experienced nature's beauty as a thunder storm started to form in the distance.
Back at the lodge, we could hear and see the thunder storm, bright lightning up in the thick clouds. It was really amazing. To top it all of for me I also got the chance to catch two more snakes (not close to the lodge); there is always something exciting and entertaining happening here in the Kapama private game reserve.

It was the last morning drive of my guests' two night stay here at Kapama River Lodge. We had been quite spoiled the previous three drives with a couple of really nice lion sightings and even the elusive leopard walking slowly down the road the night before. All we were missing from completing our Big 5 sightings was the elephants. They had proven difficult to see the last couple drives, as we had located them the afternoon before but they were deep in a riverbed where we were unable to see any of them properly – just a blur of grey moving through the thick bush.
About an hour into our last game drive, I got a call on the radio from one of the other vehicles that had been helping us try to find the elephants. They had seen one of them walking into the bush, and now had the sounds of the rest of the herd deep in the bush quite a way from the road. When we arrived in the area all we could here was some branches breaking quite far into the bush, but still no actual sight of the elephants. It seemed we might be frustrated again, so we decided to go have some coffee and come back to the area afterwards to see if they had moved closer to any of the roads.
Our patience with these surprisingly difficult-to-see elephants was richly rewarded when coming back to the area after coffee; we turned a corner to find the herd of about 20 elephants slowly crossing the road not 100 meters in front of us! We slowly drove closer to the magnificent animals and got to watch them feeding for about 15 minutes just on the side of the road, with the curious youngsters cautiously approaching closer to our vehicle to investigate our strange sounds and smells.
It was a fantastic way to complete my guests' stay. The frustration of not being able to see them properly in the drives before was completely washed away by their smiles at witnessing these amazing animals so peaceful and close to our car.

Unlike with humans, animals don't have the ability to speak with each other, so animals communicate in their own special way using sounds, scent, visual display, touch, or other sensory signals. Typically, one signal only has one meaning; unlike with humans which can give a greater picture by using words.
Some of the communication methods of animals include:
• Vocal communication
Sound is a good way to communicate because it can be turned on and off as the animal needs it.
These calls can mean many different things for instance, to indicate territories, alarm calls, to attract potential mates, to keep in contact with others in a specific social structure, between a mother and her offspring, and even to locate prey with eco-location.
Sounds are also good because it can be heard over long distances; elephants can communicate with each other over about 15km's and humans can even hear a lion's roar up to 8km's away.
• Visual communication
There are many ways for animals to communicate with visual display, so I am only going to touch on a few of them.
These signals can be anything from a facial expression, body language and facial markings. Elephants raise their large ears to make them look even bigger. Baby cheetahs up to about 3 months have grey-white hair down their backs to make them look like a honey badger (a very aggressive animal). Glow worms and fireflies use flashing signals to indicate their species and readiness to mate. The aerobatic display of the Red Crested Korhaan is also a way to attract the attention of a female (they fly up high and close their wings to drop down to the ground). Colour is also used to display threat displays, but can also be used as a follow-me sign for the babies to follow their mother.
• Olfactory communication (Scent marking)
By using scent animals can convey information on sex, age, social status, group membership, emotional state, reproductive condition and individual identity.
Animals like lions, leopards and cheetahs will scent-mark as a way to mark their territories by spraying urine backwards onto vegetation at nose level or by scratching their feet while urinating down in the same spot.
Animals like impalas and rhinos have middens that they use time and time again to convey different messages. Most of the ungulates have a pre-orbital gland just in front of their eyes that they will then drag through vegetation to leave a specific scent.
• Tactile communication (touch)
Contact behaviour is generally demonstrated by social animals. Lions have a greeting ritual of rubbing their heads together when they meet to strengthen the bond but also to show peaceful intentions.
Baboons, monkeys and the dwarf mongoose do allo-grooming to strengthen the bond between the groups.
Some babies need to feel their mother in order to find her nipple and milk and also to provide heat for the baby.
Zebra mothers and their foals will groom each other by using their incisors and lips to scrape and nibble each other to strengthen the bond between them.
Stefan – Kapama River Lodge
This afternoon on game drive we had a beautiful sighting of a very rare and seldom-seen animal called a serval. We were able to observe the serval as it was scanning the long grass looking for some of its favorite food which includes small rodents like field mice and small mammals. It was a very relaxed individual that didn't mind us being in the area which made it a very enjoyable sighting.
The serval forms part of a very elusive group of animals known as the secret seven, these animals are mostly all nocturnal and spend much of their days in hiding and many tourists visiting the African bush would most likely never even have heard of any of these animals.
Some of the other individuals in the secret seven include:
African wild cat
White tailed mongoose
Spotted genet
So be sure to ask about these interesting animals on your next trip to South Africa.

Basic Statistics & Probability
Complementary & Mutually Exclusive Events Examples
Example 1
Let's note each Example as complementary, mutually exclusive, both, or neither.
Note: the piggy bank contains a Quarter (25 cents), Dime (10 cents), Nickel (5 cents), and Penny (1 cent)
Example 2
Picking one coin from the piggy bank and getting a dime or a nickel.
Mutually exclusive? Yes. You can't pick a dime and a nickel at the same time
Complementary? No. There are other options, like a penny or quarter
Example 3
Picking a coin from the piggy bank and getting a quarter or a coin divisible by 5.
Mutually exclusive? No
Complementary? No
Quarters are also divisible by 5 (as well as dimes and nickels), so these are not mutually exclusive nor are they complementary.
Example 4
Choosing one marble from the bag and getting a blue or a green one.
Mutually exclusive? Yes. You can't choose a marble that is both blue and green at the same time.
Complementary? No. There are other options (like an orange one).

Death Angel is one of the oft-overlooked also-rans of the thrash movement of the early to mid 1980's. Their name is spoken mostly in the dusty corners of memory, their legacy not as pronounced as so many of their musical kin. To mistake that somewhat faded glory for a lack of talent or acumen, and place Death Angel on the discard pile is a fool's errand. Death Angel remains a vital and virulent band in this new millennium, and their performance as the first band on the stage was evidence enough that they remain hungry and capable.
And here we are. After a twisting, turning, practically soap-opera-plot sojourn, Anthrax's long awaited "Worship Music" is finally available to the masses in the form that the band intended. Or at least, intended for the third time. In any event, we're pretty sure this is it for revisions to the wayward, prodigal album of thrash metal's recent cycle.

As I am getting settled in at my new SoCal location and exciting news is scarce, I will explain a few issues about the past more intensely.
Why am I in San Diego? After my financial aid with Emerson College evaporated like the mere thought of moisture in the Sahara, I decided to defer for a year from college. A new decision now needed attention: Do I continue to live at home or do I live on my own?
I defined two short-term goals for the next year. The first goal is one of personal development. I want to improve myself creatively, intellectually, mentally, physically, and spiritually to become five times what I am today. The second goal is worldly but necessary: save money.
Accomplishing the second goal can happen regardless of location. The first goal is the most difficult.
Logistics made staying at home far more practical, but would result in a retardation of goal one as I was very discontent with home life.
Leaving your home on good terms with your parents is a very Biblical practice. My parents are nescient, so my primary concern focused on my native siblings. Their well-being is questionable, but they are strong people and will benefit from being refined within the fire that engulfs them.
A deadlock tormented me at this point.
My Uncle Jon came to the rescue with wisdom that customarily oozes out of him. He invited me to live with his family in San Diego. Logistical issues disappeared and comfort intensified around the family problems while giving hopeful excitement to make this one rad year away from college.
So here I am. It's a great place to be and it only gets better.

Day 5 is Ho Ho Ho DIY Ribbon. You can make it out of any martial. Crepe paper streamers, ribbon (wired and not wired) any any width. The large Ho Ho Ho ribbon is out of 3" wide ribbon while the little is normal 1.5" ribbon.
Use to decorate your tree or a special package!
I wanted to show you how it looks like from ribbon to cut out Ho Ho Ho ribbon.
Now the unveiling of how to make to make your packages a bit more glamourous and beautiful this year!
First fold your ribbon back and forth (zig zagged)
Then, start carving out. I like to start with the "H" as they are straight lines and easy to measure. I like to do one side at a time and then do the top next.
Then carve out the "O" curves.... Remember to leave a little bit at the top so it stays attached. Then cut out a half circle at the end to create the inner part of the "O"
Unfold and your done or fold another section and repeat the steps to continue your garland/ streamer
The ribbon can be striped, polka dotted or even sequence ribbon (like what we did for the large 3" Ho Ho Ho)

Voices: Patrick Galley, On Closed-End Funds
Patrick Galley is chief investment officer for Chicago-based RiverNorth Capital Management.
Closed-end funds, which have been around since 1940, include more than 650 funds covering every asset class. They collectively hold over $200 billion in assets, but I know of just 10 or so advisers who specialize in working with them.
What makes CEFs unique is that after the IPO process, only a fixed number of shares are issued. As a result they are traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and have a market price that deviates from their net asset value, or liquidation value, based on supply and demand. If a CEF's market price is above its NAV, it is said to be selling at a premium; if below, it is said to be selling at a discount.
Exchange-traded funds can also have a market price that deviates slightly from the value of the underlying assets, but arbitrage practices ensure that it won't ever deviate that much: institutional investors and market specialists can exchange ETF shares for the basket of securities that they represents. CEFs don't offer the same option. Most CEFs are perpetual securities — although some have a set future liquidation date, at which point shares can be redeemed for cash.
CEFs have two layers of risk: asset class allocation risk and discount risk. But we see discount risk as an opportunity to increase returns. If we buy shares at a 10% discount, and sell them at a 5% discount, we've made an additional 5% return on top of any increase in the shares' NAV. On the other hand, if the discount widens, we are partially protected. Discounts and premiums are anchored — to a certain extent — in the NAV. So as long as the NAV hasn't plummeted as well, we can often ride out any sudden huge discounts.
However, advisers should exercise caution these days when investing in CEFs. About 40% of these funds are selling at a premium, which means there is a bigger downside risk. Some are as much as 45% above NAV. A good yield causes an increase in demand, which causes an increase in market value, which causes more demand. It can be a self-perpetuating cycle. But at some point, people are going to look up and realize the fund is way overvalued.
We don't bet on finding the best fund managers because most managers have a hard time beating their own benchmarks. Instead we focus our energy on having a good asset allocation spread through ETFs and CEFs. The true value we offer our clients is in the work we do finding the right discounted CEFs to bet on. It's the best way we've found to increase return on investment while minimizing risk.

Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; Rhode Island; Regional Haze
Final Rule.
EPA is approving a revision to the Rhode Island State Implementation Plan (SIP) that addresses regional haze for the first planning period from 2008 through 2018. The revision was submitted by the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (RI DEM) on August 7, 2009. This revision addresses the requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA) and EPA's regulations that require States to prevent any future, and remedy any existing, manmade impairment of visibility in mandatory Class I Areas caused by emissions of air pollutants from numerous sources located over a wide geographic area (also referred to as the "regional haze program").

III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background and Purpose Back to Top
On February 28, 2012, EPA published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPR) for the State of Rhode Island. See 77 FR 11798. The NPR proposed approval of the Rhode Island State Implementation Plan (SIP) that addresses regional haze for the first planning period from 2008 through 2018. It was submitted by the RI DEM on August 7, 2009. Specifically, EPA proposed to approve Rhode Island's August 7, 2009 SIP revision as meeting the applicable implementing regulations found in 40 CFR 51.308.
A detailed explanation of the requirements for regional haze SIPs, as well as EPA's analysis of Rhode Island's Regional Haze SIP submittal was provided in the NPR and is not restated here.
EPA received comments on the NPR from the U.S. Forest Service and Dominion Energy, Inc. in support of our proposed approval of Rhode Island's Regional Haze SIP submittal.
II. Final Action Back to Top
EPA is approving Rhode Island's August 9, 2009 Regional Haze SIP revision as meeting the applicable implementing regulations found in 40 CFR 51.308.
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews Back to Top
Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve State choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act. Accordingly, this action merely approves State law as meeting Federal requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by State law. For that reason, this action:
- Is not a "significant regulatory action" subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
- Does not impose an information collection burden under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
- Is certified as not having a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
- Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
- Does not have Federalism implications as specified in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
- Is not an economically significant regulatory action based on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997);
- Is not a significant regulatory action subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
- Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent with the Clean Air Act; and
- Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in the State, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal Register. This action is not a "major rule" as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by July 23, 2012. Filing a petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect the finality of this action for the purposes of judicial review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for judicial review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such rule or action. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its requirements. See Clean Air Act § 307(b)(2), 42 U.S.C. 7607(b)(2).

Rihanna doesn't want to be single mother
"I'm just saying that whatever comes my way I'll be able to handle it. But in a perfect book, there would be marriage and kids," the Daily Telegraph quoted her as telling Interview Magazine.
The 'Umbrella" hitmaker also revealed that she would be happy to have a boy or a girl. "I know God will probably want me to have a daughter just so I could see what I put my mother through. But on the other hand, I really love little boys. So it would just be fly either way," she added.

The Chicago Cubs Recovery
This is a Chicago Cubs recovery. Want stronger growth? "Wait till next year."
Of course, what every Cubbies fan knows, "next year" can be a long time in coming. The Cubs have not won the World Series since 1908. The U.S. economy has not achieved 3% growth for a full year since 2005.
Growth of 3% or more is what is needed to make this recovery feel like a recovery–speed sustains the virtuous cycle of greater demand leading to more hiring and better income growth that fuels more spending.
The Federal Reserve is linking its policy to expectations of faster growth. As Chairman Ben Bernanke said at last week's news conference, if the data suggest "the economy is able to sustain a reasonable cruising speed, we will ease the pressure on the accelerator by gradually reducing the pace of purchases."
Wednesday's revisions to first-quarter gross domestic product indicate the Fed's foot will remain firmly on the gas. The new data show real GDP grew at a meager 1.8% annual rate last quarter, not the 2.4% reported a month ago.
What is troubling is that the downward refiguring came in private-demand sectors. Consumer spending grew only 2.6%, not the 3.4% previously estimated, as service spending was trimmed dramatically. Business investment was also less than estimated before.
The foreign sector cut GDP growth a little less than first thought, but that confirms weak demand is a global phenomenon: both first-quarter exports and imports now show declines, instead of small increases reported earlier. Inventories were little changed as was the decline in government spending.
The mix of first-quarter growth means the economy had little momentum heading into the spring. According to WSJ.com, nongovernment economists think the U.S. economy is growing by just 1.9% this quarter.
Assuming that forecast is correct, the Fed's expectation for GDP growth this year looks suspect. To reach the bank's central tendency projection of 2.3%-2.6% this year, the economy has to grow by at least 2.7% in the second half. That is not particularly robust, but with more federal spending cuts on the way, the WSJ.com economists forecast just a 2.5% pace.
Looking at 2014, the Fed projects growth between 3.0% and 3.5%. That is virtuous-cycle, we're-going-to-the-Series fast. However, the federal drag will probably still be around. Plus, it is uncertain how businesses will adjust their employment levels once health-care regulations kick in.
If the economy is not growing as fast as the Fed expects, policy makers will have to dial back on their plans to ease off the bond-buying program. Tapering moves? Wait till next year.

The summary below is from the full report titled "Cardiorespiratory Fitness and the Progression of Carotid Atherosclerosis in Middle-Aged Men." It is in the 2 January 2001 issue of Annals of Internal Medicine (volume 134, pages 12-20). The authors are TA Lakka, JA Laukkanen, R Rauramaa, R Salonen, H-M Lakka, GA Kaplan, and JT Salonen.
Atherosclerosis is a condition in which blockages form in blood vessels. Atherosclerosis leads to heart attacks when it involves the blood vessels of the heart (coronary arteries) and to strokes when it involves the blood vessels leading to the brain (carotid arteries). People who are physically fit are known to be less likely to have atherosclerosis-related events such as heart attacks and strokes. However, it is not known exactly how physical fitness protects people from strokes or whether physical activity will actually slow the progression of atherosclerosis in its early stages.
To find out whether physical fitness is associated with less progression of early atherosclerosis in the carotid arteries.
The study included 854 men 42 to 60 years of age who lived in Finland. The men were participating in a large study of heart disease.
The researchers examined the men and asked them detailed questions about their level of physical activity. The men also completed a special test that measured how physically fit they were by monitoring them during exercise. The researchers did ultrasound tests, which show detailed images of the men's carotid arteries, both at the start of the study and again 4 years later. These images made it possible to measure the amount of narrowing from atherosclerosis. The researchers tested the relationship between the amount of atherosclerosis that developed over the 4 years and the men's physical fitness levels.
The increase in carotid artery atherosclerosis was greatest in men with the worst physical fitness and least in the men with the best physical fitness. This association remained even after the researchers accounted for other known atherosclerosis risk factors.
This study included only men 42 to 60 years of age. It is not known if the same results would occur in women or in people of other ages. The researchers did not follow the men long enough to see if the increases in carotid artery atherosclerosis actually led to strokes. In addition, the researchers measured physical fitness only at the beginning of the study, but many people change their activity levels over time.
This study suggests that men 42 to 60 years of age who are physically fit are less likely to have worsening carotid atherosclerosis over time.

Do you love it when Kanye talks his shit, yes or no?
That's what he was screaming at his fans the other night as he stomped around the L.A. stage in a coat and mask on. Referencing his recent string of interviews, Kanye berated anybody who questioned his "media training" as piano played softly in the background and fans got riled up. "They said, 'Michael Jackson would never do nothing like that', I said I ain't Michael Jackson motherfucker! Richard Pryor woulda did it. Muhammad Ali woulda did it. Malcolm X woulda did it. Mandela woulda did it."

I was given a big bag of all purpose white potatoes and I cooked up quite a few the other night when my family was over. They didn't eat all of them and now I have quite a bit left over! Besides frying them with onions, what else can I do with them! I need some ideas for dinner tonite!
I know if anyone can give me some ideas, it would be from my great friends on the budget living site! Thanks everyone!!
Janet in MI
where it is cold, rainy and very windy!!
How about making potato salad. Or heat back up and mash. Or mash a bunch and make a mashed potato casserole. There are a few ideas. I'll keep thinking.
Mash some up and make Cream of Potato soup...yum!
The potato soup is a good idea, scalloped potatoes, chunk them up & add them to veg. soup, shred them w/ground meat & make hash, there are baked goods that use mashed potatoes...I've had spud-nuts....potato doughnuts. Lots of casseroles use potatoes....shredded, chunked, etc. Make kabobs w/chunks of meat, veggies & potatoes.
Slice and pan-fry with onions/green pepper to serve with eggs or left over sliced meats or as an omlette filling.
Mash them and add cream cheese, sour cream marg, salt, pepper, and onion powder. Put into casserole dish, and top with melted butter mixed with dry bread crumbs. Reheat in 350 oven or the microwave when ready to serve. We call these Swedish Potatoes.
mash them up - add onions, flour and egg. fry as potato pancakes. Yum.

OMW I'm so hungry now ... i was gonna say fry 'em up and have eggs for dinner, but ... now ...
My "Babies" are growing up!!!!
put into a casserole or pot pie...with lots of veggies...you can also freeze them for a few weeks..
If you have some ground beef how about shepherds pie?
I just want to thank everyone for all the wonderful ideas you gave me for my excess cooked potatoes! I ended up making potato soup for one night and the next night I fried up what was left with onions and green and red peppers! My dear hubby just loved that! We had eggs with the potatoes so I was really able to "stretch" my grocery money for this week!! (Eggs were on sale for 79 cents this week-bought 4 dozen!) Thank you all so very much!!
PS I only have about 33+ more pounds of potatoes left to use. But at least now I have LOTS of wonderful ways to use them!!

Economic Systems
America's Mixed Economy
These days, just about everybody in America has made their peace with the mixed economy. Sure, you might be able to find a true-blue libertarian out there somewhere who truly believes that the government should play no role whatsoever in economic life. And you might even be able to track down a die-hard communist, some old lefty clinging to the discredited dream of a command economy controlled by the dictatorship of the proletariat.
But those guys are way out there on the fringe. The rest of us live in a world in which the mixed economy seems perfectly normal.
Individuals exercise a great deal of personal control over their economic lives; most transactions occur in a marketplace that is relatively free. The lifeblood of the nation's economic life is found in the private sector.
But the government also plays an important role in the economy as well. It referees the marketplace and through a variety of measures influences the ways in which resources are allocated and distributed.
Where we as Americans will often disagree – passionately! – is on precisely what the ideal balance of public and private within the mixed economy should be. Could we use a bit more government regulation to prevent abuses by businesses? Or do we need to pull government back to keep it from getting in the way of private enterprise?
Why It Matters Today
Been to a Tea Party rally lately? The first years of the Obama Administration have generated a new surge in controversy over the proper role of government in the economy, with conservatives and libertarians taking to the streets to protest what they see as the dangerous big-government tendencies of the new Democratic government.
Meanwhile, Obama has also taken heat from his left flank, with many liberals criticizing him for not using the government aggressively enough to confront the nation's economic problems.
Whether or not you're a Tea Partier, this is a moment of enormous political and economic importance. What kind of economy do you want to live in? What kind of government do you want to be a citizen of? Now is a time for choosing.

#Seawolves rumble with UMBC in Friday night showdown
Oct. 24, 2013
Stony Brook, N.Y. – The Stony Brook volleyball team returns to Pritchard, where it is 4-0 this season, to play UMBC in a battle of first-place teams in the America East Friday, Oct. 25 at 7:30 p.m.
Last Time Out
Lo Hathaway and Hannah Dolan paced Stony Brook (11-13, 5-2 America East) with 11 digs and 18 assists, respectively, but the Seawolves fell to Seton Hall, 3-0, Tuesday night in a non-conference road match. Kaitlin Costello tallied a team-high seven kills, while Melissa Rigo chimed in with six.
Scouting the Retrievers
UMBC (14-8, 5-2 America East) enters the matchup tied with Stony Brook, Albany and New Hampshire for first in the league. The Retrievers lead the conference in hitting (.205), opponent hitting (.152), assists (11.67), kills (12.49) and blocks (2.09). Senior Emily Witsaman is the league-leader in hitting percentage at .321, while classmate Mallory McIntyre has dished out an America East-best 10.12 assists per set.
Series history vs. the Retrievers
The series is even at 11 matches apiece. UMBC took a four-setter from Stony Brook in the conference opener Sept. 27 in Baltimore, Md.
Aces are Wild
The Seawolves have been one of the top teams in the country in terms of aces per set this season and came in at 10th nationally and first in the conference at 1.80 aces per set in the most recent statistical rankings. Hannah Dolan and Stephanie McFadden sit first and third, respectively, at .48 and .45 aces per frame.
Get Lo
Sophomore captain Lo Hathaway has been a rock on defense in her return to the starting lineup this season. She is fourth in the league with 4.19 digs per set, which would rank eighth in Stony Brook single-season history if the 2013 campaign ended today. As a freshman, she recorded 4.25 digs per set, which was good for sixth on Stony Brook's all-time single-season ledger.
Dolan Out
Junior Hannah Dolan has impressed as Stony Brook's primary setter this season and currently ranks sixth in the league with 8.56 assists per frame. She has surpassed 40 assists eight times this year.
Kaitlin's Killin' It
Kaitlin Costello leads the conference with 3.19 kills per set. The senior outside hitter has recorded a team-high 11 double-doubles in 2013, including a career night against Providence when she tallied a personal-best 22 kills and 13 digs and hit a stellar .409. Also a threat when serving, Costello is eighth in the conference in service aces per set (.27).
Go Rigo
The reigning America East Rookie of the Year and a 2012 first-team all-conference pick, Melissa Rigo is second on the Seawolves with 10 double-doubles this season and currently sits sixth in the America East in kills per set (2.73) and 12th in digs per set (2.79).
Up Next
Stony Brook continues its four-match homestand next weekend against Albany Friday, Nov. 1 at 7:30 p.m. Students can swipe their ID cards as they enter Pritchard for the match to earn points for their undergraduate college and can check out the Battle of the UGC's website to see where their college ranks. There will also be FREE pizza for students in between sets two and three courtesy of Luigi's Pizzeria & Restaurant of Setauket.
