Scott County appoints wife of fallen sheriff to position
Aime Carpenter appointed to sheriff position through end of 2014
Published 11:44 AM CDT Jun 18, 2013
The widow of Scott County Sheriff Cody Carpenter will serve out the remainder of her husband's term in office.
Carpenter died May 31 while trying to rescue two residents trapped by rising flood waters. On Monday, the Scott County Quorum Court appointed Amie Carpenter as the county's sheriff through the end of 2014.
Amie Carpenter will not be able to run for re-election and has no law enforcement experience - but none is required to hold the position.
Wildlife officer Joel Campora also died in the flooding, along with three women in the Y City area.

FLINT, Michigan -- The Flint School board discussed plans to meet every Wednesday beginning next month, a schedule change board members say saves the district money and makes board activity more accessible to the public.
Under the proposal discussed at tonight's board meeting, meetings of the full board will continue to be held the first and third Wednesday of the month at 7 p.m. The change comes on the second and third Wednesday of each month, when the board will hold its committee meetings beginning at 7 p.m.
The current schedule involves holding committee meetings before each board meeting and on other days of the week. Often, the committee meetings run past 7 p.m. and force the board meeting to start late.
By holding fewer meeting days, the district would save an estimated $2,000 per year, said board member Jennifer Dillard.
Much of the cost savings is due to serving fewer meals, Dillard added. Most board meetings include a dinner for board members before the meeting.
Board members praised the idea.
"I am so glad to see this happen," said board treasurer Vera Perry . "It's been nine years of sitting here waiting for this to happen."
"I really appreciate this structure," said board member Ella Greene-Moton. "It's really difficult having meetings Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays."
Board members also point out the uniformity of the schedule should make it easier for community members to visit the meetings.
"I think it's an excellent idea and I think it's great that the community will be able to come in here right at 7 o'clock," said board secretary Betty Ramsdell.
Board member Isaiah Oliver expressed some concern about the switch. Oliver said he already has much of the 2011-12 school year scheduled out, and changing mid-year could create time conflicts causing him to miss some meetings, he said.
Oliver added that he's in favor of the schedule change, despite being disappointed it may cause him schedule conflicts.
"I actually think it's a really good idea," Oliver said.

Given the registry actually implies both /etc/* and /var/*, and in order to be comparable. I feel /etc is better than registry while /var/ may be worse in many cases. The reason for this is the mutability scope of data stored in these. Limiting the scope of mutability is IMO essential for POLA. To me this means we should strive to make the granularity of 'private' mutable storage as fine grained as possible. Rob

If you are using NFS version 3 you can increase both rsize and wsize to 64k
That will result in less overhead transfering large files

"The Untold Story of the Witches of Oz": Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth Look Back at Wicked Ten Years Later
By Michael Gioia via playbill.com
Kristin Chenoweth in Wicked.

Tony Award-winning actresses Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth, who created the respective roles of Elphaba and Glinda — the not-so Wicked Witches of Oz — take a trip down memory lane and individually chat with Playbill about the long-running, hit musical that stormed Broadway ten years ago.
"It was so good to be together again," said Kristin Chenoweth, who recently met with Idina Menzel — her co-star and comrade in Wicked, which opened on Broadway Oct. 30, 2003 — in celebration of the show's tenth anniversary at the Gershwin Theatre.
"I always knew it was something special in the beginning," admitted Menzel, "but I had no idea that it would become this phenomenon."
On Oct. 30, the Tony Award-nominated Best Musical Wicked hits a monumental milestone and joins the ranks of Mamma Mia!, Rent, Beauty and the Beast, Oh! Calcutta!, A Chorus Line, The Lion King, Les Misérables, Chicago, Cats and The Phantom of the Opera — musicals that have played for over a decade on the Great White Way.
Although Menzel did not suspect Stephen Schwartz and Winnie Holzman's Wicked would turn into the mega-hit musical that it is now — with theatregoers still rushing to the Gershwin and the production still topping box-office charts — Chenoweth did.
"I just remember saying to Idina, 'Man… It's not going to matter what the critics say. Do you hear that? Do you hear that audience?' That's what I remember from intermission," Chenoweth recalled of opening night.
Menzel, on the other hand, "was probably out of my body a little bit" after taking flight Oct. 30, 2003, and "Defying Gravity" at the end of the show's first act. "I get like that," she admitted. "When I'm doing my thing — when I'm so involved in it — I can't remember what I did, so that's why you have people around you to tell you. You just lose yourself in what you are doing. And, those are the best moments."happy wheels

This is inspired by a baker extraordinaire, my once-mother-in-law, Shirley Posluns, who is justifiably famous for her most amazing apple cake. It is not her recipe exactly – you would have to watch her make it – but it is pretty darned close and it's the recipe she shared with me. I find this on my list of best three apple cakes in the world (my Rougement Apple Cake, based on my own mom's apple cake in my cookbook A Passion for Baking takes lst prize and my own Layered Apple Cake is tied for second. Did I mention my Apple Strudel Cake or Apple Cake in the Round?). McIntosh apples are best for this cake; but you can try Cortland or Golden Delicious – any sort, sweet apple. Don't even consider Granny Smith! They are too tart and watery. You can make many apple cakes but will always come back to this one. It does not stale but it does not last either so its conservation qualities are totally lost on those who devour it. Btw - how many apples you use for this, it is probably still not enough. They should completely fill the pan in a ridiculous way.

CALCUTTA - As Rich Wright read the messages, he couldn't help but get a little choked up.
After ending a 14-year run as the football coach at Beaver Local on Monday, Wright spent a large part of his day reading through the many text messages he received from former players.
"I think I had numbers for 36 former players in my phone," Wright said. "I sent out a mass text and they all responded. Some of them made me cry. It's not as dramatic as a death by any means, but it kind of felt like that."

Rich Wright resigned on Monday as the head football coach at Beaver Local after a 14-year tenure, the longest in the school's history. (Review file photo)
At the Beaver?Local Board of Education meeting on Monday, it became official. Wright resigned his post as head football coach after the longest tenure in the school's history.
"I've been Coach Wright for 21 years now,"?he said. "Obviously, it was a difficult decision. I've coached 30 seasons in a 21-year period with football and wrestling. In that time, I've had a lot of great memories and had the opportunity to be a part of some special families, players and events."
Wright, 44, said he will now pursue a career as a principal after earning his masters in school administration from Franciscan University.
At the ripe age of just 22, Wright - a 1986 East Liverpool graduate - was tabbed to take over the Beaver Local wrestling program. In 1998, at the age of 29, he replaced Ron Suran as the head football coach.
Wright took over a team that was coming off two 0-10 seasons in the past three years.
All Wright did was post a .500 or better record in each of his first nine seasons at the helm.
He ends his career at Beaver Local with an overall record of 83-66, which includes six playoff appearances.
"Before me the longest stretch was seven years coaching football," Wright said of Dale Stuby's run from 1988-94. "And I'm the longest tenured wrestling coach here. Looking back, I wouldn't change anything. It was just a matter of some different opportunities opening for me."
Wright led the Beavers to three 10-0 seasons and has coached many players who have gone on to play on the college level, including at least four who received Division I scholarships - Derek Wolfe (Cincinnati), Adam Hoppel (Cincinnati), Josh Pastore (Kent State), Jamin Pastore (Duke). Wolfe was selected in the second round of the NFL Draft in April by the Denver Broncos.
"I've been lucky enough to have some great athletes under my watch," Wright said. "And now, to top it all off with Derek in the NFL, well, you just couldn't ask for a better script."
The Beavers have fallen on tough times of late, winning just one game in each of the previous three seasons.
Despite their recent struggles, Wright believes he is leaving the football program in good shape.
"Things are heading in the right direction," he said.?"They've got a great principal and school board. We've had a great offseason and a bright future.
"Some may criticize my play-calling over the years, but not many have questioned our strength program. The guys have been working hard and I'm going to keep my accountability list up in the weight room. I'll do whatever they need me to do to make this a smooth transition."

This is a great style for a night out for New Year's Eve! :) Thanks for being here, Annelise! xo
Hello lovely readers of Finding Beauty in the Ordinary! I am seriously blessed to have the opportunity to guest post for you today. Heather, thanks for letting me share my awkward randomness with your readers!
OK-- so a tiny introduction-- I'm Annelise (aka Aunie) and I blog about hair. Whoopee, right? I'm on a 365-day journey which involves no hairspray, teasing, dyeing or frying of my hair. Oh yeah... and absolutely NO hair products. I'm trying to achieve long, beautiful hair and this is my year-long attempt to get it!
Today I'd like to show you one of my newest, and favorite styles. I introduced this one to my readers a little while ago and they loved it. I called it my Holiday Updo. It's so easy, chic, and simple to do!
Needless to say, I loved, loved loved it. And when readers send me email requests for hairstyles, you just have to know that I'm going to try them.
All you do is place a simple elastic headband on your head, twist a couple pieces of your hair around it, and you're good to go! I modified the version from HeyKayli a little bit. She pulled the headband down over her forehead, and I'm not such a huge fan of that style, so I left the band on the top of my head. Also, I decided to sweep mine to the side in a low ponytail to make it more of an updo look. I also think this would look fab with a messy side bun. OOH... now I want to try it. I plan on wearing a one-shoulder dress for New Year's Eve, and this would be such a fun style to rock along with it.
Do you think you'll be trying this messy-but-chic style these holidays? I hope you enjoy this hairstyle, and feel free to check out all of my hairstyles over at my little blog. In case you're not super into hair, but you want to see my other fun happenings, please also venture on over to Simply Aunie. My blog all about my little self in this big old world.

Hello friends! I was inspired by the master blaster of synth design, @Mikael Eidenberg. His recent synth is one of the hottest app designs I've seen. I tested an idea with a light color palette, similar to the sleek Virus TI Polar. Hope you enjoy the LED madness in the quest to become expert knob twiddlers.

Another serving of drama may be coming for Paula Deen, who could lose more deals on the heels of her firing from the Food Network.
A representative for the shopping network QVC, which sells her cookware, released a statement Sunday to PEOPLE that expressed "concerns [over] the unfortunate Paula Deen situation," adding, "QVC does not tolerate discriminatory behavior."
Following the celebrity chef's admission that she used a racial slur in the past, the network is "closely monitoring these events and the ongoing litigation," continues the representative's statement, which was first reported by TMZ. "We are reviewing our business relationship with Ms. Deen, and in the meantime, we have no immediate plans to have her appear on QVC."
Deen, 66, issued a statement less than 24 hours after the Food Network announced on Friday it was dropping the longtime star.
"I have had the pleasure of being allowed into so many homes across the country and meeting people who have shared with me the most touching and personal stories," she said. "This would not have been possible without the Food Network. Thank you again. Love and best dishes to all of y'all."
Deen also has a book, titled Paula Deen's New Testament: 250 Favorite Recipes, All Lightened Up, due to arrive in stores this October. Her publisher, Random House, Inc., has not cancelled her contract. However, a spokesman for Random House, whose imprints include Ballantine Books, tells PEOPLE, "We are monitoring the situation closely."
Deen's cookware is also sold at Target, Sears, Walmart, J. C. Penney, and Kmart. Last January, she announced a partnership with Novo Nordisk when she revealed she has type 2 diabetes. The drug maker is standing by her.
"Paula Deen's still a product spokesperson for the Victoza brand. We recognize the seriousness of these allegations and will follow the legal proceedings closely, staying in contact with her. As a company committed to improving the lives of people with diabetes, Novo Nordisk engaged Deen
as a spokeswoman because of Paula's commitment to increasing awareness about diabetes to millions of people in this country."
And they aren't the only ones watching the situation. Sears Holdings told PEOPLE late Sunday that "the company is currently exploring next steps as they pertain to Ms. Deen's products."

It's been a quiet few months for Nokia after details about it being acquired by Microsoft appeared, but that won't last long - on April 2nd, the Finnish company will hold a big event…

Son of 920.....I can't wait to see what Nokia going to bring.
28. AppleHateBoy (unregistered)
I want a Lumia 730......with a swivel 6.7 MP camera.
Low end phones should not have front facing cams (Ex: Lumia 525)
Mid range phones should have decent swivel cams (Ex: Elife E7 Mini)
High end phones should have excellent front and back cams (Ex: Nubia X6)

If Nokia insist in WP it´ll loose the top dogs, it´s always about the camera !

Do you think the 630 with no camera flash is gonna have a great camera? If you said yes. Then keep dreaming.
20. sergiobr (Posts: 707; Member since: 25 Feb 2013)
Nop ! 930, 1530 ... Change from WP and start to rule the world
41. Martin_Cooper (Posts: 1413; Member since: 30 Jul 2013)
The reason they never went with android was cause Samsung was already rulling the world. You cant imagine how hard it is to sell in a world of Samsung. NOKIA was going down, no money, so what would they do with android? Be SONY/LG/HTC who bearly have 4-5-6% each? Or try new OS and dominate it and try slowly to catch up. THey did well and they are doing well especially with MS who will help them with unlimited ammount of money for marketing.
45. tech2 (Posts: 3453; Member since: 26 Oct 2012)
Why does every andoid OEM focus on flagships ?! If they're to enter they could've started with the same strategy of lumia 520 and 620 and target developing countries. And then when people start trusting your products then you go on to build a flagship. That's how android came into existence. People don't want to shell out $800 if they don't trust a brand or software.
Moto G has built a perfect budget phone and is Motorola's highest selling phone EVER.

720p is enough for 4.5'' display. With 720p, Snapdragon 800 would rock just like Sony Xperia Z Compact does. And 2700mAh battery really sounds great for 4.5'' display! 20mp PureView Camera,2GB RAM,Micro SD slot and ofc new Windows 8.1!! What more can you expect from a Windows phone? :)
43. Lyngdoh (Posts: 260; Member since: 06 Sep 2012)
You just described the Z1 compact with Windows phone 8.1
4. PAPINYC (banned) (Posts: 2315; Member since: 30 Jul 2011)
Such a shame Nokia decided to go with MicroSilliSoft, it would have been great to have Android on the Nokia 1520 or Lumia 1020. Alas, my powers only reach for the crumbling Apple in Cupertino and the folks over in Redmonde seem to have some sort of protective force field around their camp; which is why the Bald'man is still standing. Congrats Nokia!!

See I prefer it this way.. I think nokia and android don't fit or go together.. That would be like apple and android.. Nokia and Microsoft equals amazing

Nokia X 0 (Windows Phone) = 0

Not everyone wants an Android phone. I have a Nexus 5, iPhone 5s 64GB and I am glad that my 1020 runs Windows Phone and my wife is glad that her 1520 runs Windows Phone, after using Android devices over the last few years.
I will still buy Android and iOS devices in various hardware generations but I am glad to have Windows Phone as my main OS.
I can say this, with Nokia's hardware expertise, there isn't any phone with Android or iOS that I can honestly say "I wish that had Windows Phone". For example, I don't wish the GS5 or M8 had Windows Phone because Nokia would make a better phone with the same processors with Windows Phone.
Above all, it isn't a "shame" that phones run Android or iOS or BB10 because it is great to have a choice.
Why don't you contact your favorite Android manufacturer and ask them to build phones with whatever quality that you like about Nokia phones? While you do that, I'll contact Nokia and ask when are they going to start making water resistant phones and adding back the IR blasters they were using 8 years ago.

I am glad they didnt. I am enjoying the WP over my Note 3 and S3 experiences. Love the 925. Even without 8.1 i love the OS. I dont have to babysit it, which for me is a huge factor, as well as office and xbox integration.

There was a time when an Android NOKIA was my wildest dream. However things are looking different now with the new Windows and the Windows apps and features. The time is coming when I will abandon the Android. And it might just happen this spring...
46. 7thspaceman (Posts: 1544; Member since: 14 Feb 2011)
There is still hope that Microsoft/Nokia will make a American/International version of the Nokia XL android open source smart phone that will have better specs then the Nokia XL that is made for developing markets. it may not be as grand as regular Android smart phones but some People in developed nations will buy them and root them to use Google play store Apps and services. Perhaps this new XL smart phone will the API'S so you wont have to root the New XL to use Google Apps and services but you will have keep the Microsoft/Nokia UI or else you will destroy the new nokia XL Warranties.
5. ihavenoname (Posts: 1693; Member since: 18 Aug 2013)
930, 630. Couple of new camera apps, maybe that long-time-ago-rumoured Nokia Mix Radio for iOS and/or Android. IDK what else.
7. itsdeepak4u2000 (Posts: 3718; Member since: 03 Nov 2012)

635 will have one, l think..

Enough with the iphone style resolutions, give the third world some hd. I think it has gotten much cheaper to manufacture hd pannels. Besides, we have seen the likes of the 925 sell for 300 bucks of something.
11. CX3NT3_713 (Posts: 2275; Member since: 18 Apr 2011)
I'm holding out, for the 1820? C'mon on Nokia... Bring it
14. jckc92 (Posts: 29; Member since: 28 Nov 2012)
Sound like great phones...Nokia has to stop dragging their feet and bring out the 1820 and hopefully it isn't a phablet size phone! Tired of big and bulky phones. 4.7-5" is adequate.. Also make sure it has a 3000+ size battery, micro SD slot for all you lovers of it, a great camera like the 1020 with Zenon flash and some metal for that expensive look. They also have to sell it on all carriers...Do this and the sales will fly. I use phone for talking ( I know hard to believe), GPS, and camera. I don't game or watch movies. If Nokia wants to gain some ground in the market then they need to get this phone out ASAP!!! M8, SG5, Z2, and soon to be iphone 6 will all be in the game and once again don't want Nokia to come out last with an OS that only has less than 4% of the market. IMPRESS US ALREADY!!!
21. pookiewood (Posts: 631; Member since: 05 Mar 2012)
I think the issue is they can't fix American minds. Yes release devices here but I think they really should cater to their global fans where people are more open to WP. These AT&T/Verizon launch cycles have to end! WP is great they just need to push for global releases.
39. Odiin (Posts: 340; Member since: 23 Apr 2013)
completely agree!
17. pookiewood (Posts: 631; Member since: 05 Mar 2012)
I'm still impressed with my 920 because it's still plenty fast. I just want that Icon screen! I was hoping the 920 followed in the footsteps of the 900 but it didn't. However I'm still impressed by my 920's screen I just hope an AT&T/International variant is for real and has the same exact screen technology as the Icon.
40. Odiin (Posts: 340; Member since: 23 Apr 2013)
Yes, 920 is still a beasty phone, It has gorgeous screen,

Nokia doesn't exist for me any more. Not interested in windows phone, so this company serves no purpose in my life.

Not interested,or no purpose in life? Yet you stopped to comment , on a windows / Nokia article......riiiiiiight

this article =/= the nokia company, dude. if people only voiced their opinion on things they like or want, i don't know where we'd be.

and yet here you are giving nokia a "purpose in you live"

Who cares? Competition is good, plus people dont agree with you in a way that you think your opinion somehow represents the majority.
24. GamasK (Posts: 22; Member since: 27 Jun 2013)
So the 630 is going to be a downgrade from 625 in camera section? Too bad
26. oboboy14 (Posts: 51; Member since: 27 Mar 2014)
Whatever happened to the 1525? I've been holding out for that since it was leaked!

hmm wouldn't it blow peoples minds if Nokia announced a Nokia XL android smart phone for the developed world as well as new Windows 8.1 smart phones. I know that wont happen but I do expect an XL for the developed world by this september or november because I predict that the Nokia XL will be a big hit overseas.

During the month of July, three GSNENY Seniors and Ambassadors participated in GSUSA Destinations, national programs for Cadettes, Seniors, and Ambassadors that are interested in meeting new friends from across the country, having new experiences, and seeing new places.
This year, one traveler hopped a plane to Paris, France to participate in the World to Explore program. Kathryn said, "The trip to Paris was even better than I imagined it would be! I had an absolutely amazing time on my trip and learned so much about the history and culture of Paris, France and made some amazing friends that I know I will keep in touch with. I will definitely go back and visit Paris again and I am so thankful for this opportunity that Girl Scouts has provided me with- especially all of the memories that I will carry with me for a lifetime."
The two other travelers spent a month volunteering as counselors at the Juliette Low Camp, a summer program for girls with physical disabilities in Missouri. Kaitlin said, "My destination was AMAZING! My host family was amazing and so were the girls at camp!" and Lindsay said, "They [the campers] were always running up to us with hugs, and playing with us all the time. They were so sweet and so enjoyable to be around. I've learned so much from this experience and I am so grateful to have had this opportunity".
We're so proud of you girls- way to go! Are you interested in traveling on a 2013 GSUSA Destination? Look for more information in the fall edition of GS Adventures and don't miss our info session webinar on October 5th at 6:30 pm.

Ireland: A work in progress
Mary Minihan
That was no bland speech from the newly inaugurated president, Michael D Higgins. His denouncement of what you might call the "boom time establishment" in Dublin Castle was pretty powerful stuff.
He held out the tantalizing prospect of a real Republic, "which is ours for the making", light years away from the self-destructive selfishness and greed that took a grip of the upper echelons of our society, mostly, in recent times.
"In more recent years we saw the rise of a different kind of individualism – closer to an egotism based on purely material considerations – that tended to value the worth of a person in terms of the accumulation of wealth rather than their fundamental dignity," he said.
"That was our loss; the source in part of our present difficulties. Now it is time to turn to an older wisdom." During the campaign, Mr Higgins said he hoped the contest would contribute to burying ageism for good. The first of his promised series of presidential seminars will focus "on being young in Ireland".
Like Taoiseach Enda Kenny who spoke before him, Mr Higgins noted that a decade of commemoration lies ahead. Mr Kenny mentioned "the Lock-Out, the Easter Rising, the First World War, the Battle of the Somme". Before the ceremony, Mr Higgins paused for reflection in the Connolly Room, where the 1916 leader James Connolly was held before execution.
Mr Higgins said Connolly took pride in the past, but of course felt those who "excessively worshipped" that past were seeking to escape from "the struggle and challenge" of the present. "He believed that Ireland was a work in progress; a country still to be fully imagined and invented."
A "presidency of transformation" is on the way, Mr Higgins has promised, and he did not neglect to pay tribute to the "two great women" who had preceded him, Mary McAleese and Mary Robinson.

The Driving Force of Labor Force Participation in Developed Countries
Ivan Kitov
Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) - Institute for the Geospheres Dynamics
Oleg Kitov
University of Warwick
May 1, 2008
The evolution of labor force participation rate is modeled using a lagged linear function of real economic growth, as expressed by GDP per capita. For the U.S., our model predicts at a two-year horizon with RMSFE of 0.28% for the period between 1965 and 2007. Larger part of the deviation between predicted and measured LFP is explained by artificial dislocations in measured time series induced by major revisions to the CPS methodology in 1979 and 1989. Similar models have been developed for Japan, the UK, France, Italy, Canada, and Sweden.

A woman was rushed to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries Thursday morning after she was hit by a vehicle while pushing a car off of Interstate 27, Amarillo police said.
About 6:10 a.m., a 2006 Chevrolet Impala driven by Jamikea Gormany, 18, of Amarillo was northbound on the interstate approaching the 26th Avenue exit when the car ran out of gas, Sgt. Warren Gross said. Gormany called friends to help push the car off the interstate, Gross said.
A married couple pushed the Impala onto the exit ramp while Gormany steered the car, police said. At that time, a 2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser driven by Christopher Shawn Welch, 32, of Amarillo exited the interstate and failed to yield to the Impala, Gross said. The woman pushing the Impala, Helen Cardenas, 37, of Amarillo managed to push her husband away before the PT Cruiser struck her and the Impala, Gross said.
Cardenas was transported to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries, and the wreck is under investigation, Gross said.
Police closed the 26th Avenue exit and part of the I-27 access road to investigate the accident. One lane of I-27 was also blocked off for several hours approximately 1 mile around the accident.

Serving and pairing suggestions
Six Grapes is bottled ready to drink after about five years of cask aging. It has a t-cap closure, which means that you don't need a corkscrew to open it and that it should stay fresh for up to two months if stored in a cool, dark place or the refrigerator. Serve it in a glass with at least a six ounce capacity so that you may appreciate the wine's aromas. Six Grapes pairs particularly well with dark chocolate, but is also fantastic on its own as a luscious dessert in a glass.

A man who took his ex-girlfriend hostage shot himself in the head and then was wounded by police early today, ending a nearly four-hour standoff in North Philadelphia, authorities said.
The 23-year-old gunman was reported in critical but stable condition at Albert Einstein Medical Center with a self-inflicted deep graze wound to the back of the head and a police bullet in his chest, officials said.
The hostage, also 23 and the mother of the gunman's child, was released unharmed before he shot himself in the basement of a home on the 5200 clock of Arbor Street in Olney.
The siege began about 10:55 p.m. Monday, when officers responded to a call for a domestic dispute involving a man threatening his former girlfriend with a gun, said Lt. Ray Evers, a police spokesman.

St. Andrew's Episcopal School, McDonald Hall
8804 Postoak Road. Potomac, Maryland. 20854
Guest Speaker: Senator Chuck Hagel (R-NE), Co-Sponsor of The Veterans' Oral History Project Act
Doing history at Saint Andrew's has taken on an all new meaning for students in the Advanced Placement United States History and Twentieth Century World classes. Since November, students have been conducting an oral history project which breaks the mold of textbook-centered learning, as students go into the "field" and, as oral historian Studs Terkel once said, uncover the "living repositories of our past."
This coffee house will not only celebrate the work of each student but also recognizes the history they uncovered. Students will read excerpted portions of their projects while many of those interviewed will also be on hand to share their stories with you. Museum exhibitions and student work will be displayed throughout the evening. Gain a new perspective on the American Century from student interviews of World War II, Korean, Vietnam and Cold War veterans, civil rights leaders, survivors of the Great Depression and Holocaust, and immigrants who escaped Russia, the Cambodian Killing Fields, and Castro's Cuba.

Reporter John Conzano of The Oregonian wrote, "I realized, amid the diamond-studded parade of self promoters and pitching of products, that the former Seahawks quarterback was just talking about what he deeply cared about.

How many of you have actually achieved that ripped, lean look(ala Mark). If so, how long did it take and did you pretty much just follow the PB? thanks

How many of you have actually achieved that ripped, lean look(ala Mark). If so, how long did it take and did you pretty much just follow the PB? thanks
Got it. :D
Been primal for going on 6 months now. Started fairly lean and got really lean. Photo of where I started -- I was still mostly vegan at this point -- eek!: [url]http://inthenightlife.blogspot.com/2010/01/winds-of-change-primal-fitness-year-one.html[/url]
My compliance is quite a bit better than 80/20. More like 98%. I suspect that this is necessary to get ripped, as opposed to just reaching a perfectly acceptable, but not striking, body composition.
And, I get a bit more physical activity than the PB's minimums:
Mark recommends at least 3-5 hours of "moving slowly" per week; I get at least 10 hours, often more like 15 or 20.
I lift heavy 2x per week, do sprints/metcon 2x per week, do "gymnastics" (bodyweight, etc) 2x per week, and rest/play 2x per week. (Yes, that is an 8-day week.) ;)
I try hard to get plenty of sleep, use my brain, minimize stress, get adequate sunlight, and all those other important PB components that we don't discuss as much as nutrition and exercise.
In short, I think the PB totally works, but for really stellar results, you have to put in more than than minimums.
I was lean and cut, once, at age 52. Two scant years ago. (Following a Weston Price type diet, long-distance cycling, and Crossfit 4x/week, doing strength training and metcons.)
But I overtrained and broke. It was a LOT of work to get 'ripped'---as ripped as a 50-something woman can get without 'roids.
Here's something worth noting: If you look at the photos in Price's NUTRITION AND PHYSICAL DEGENERATION, or the photos in THE OLD WAY by Elizabeth Marshall Thomas (of the !Kung bushmen in the 1950s), you will not see the ripped, chiseled physiques we associate with Grok.
You will not see obese people, either.
I think neither Grok nor hunter-gatherers spent much time looking in mirrors or admiring each other's bodies. I think what mattered more was functionality: could the male hunt? (Walk, fasting, for 2 or 3 days at a time? Track the beasts? Carry home the carcass?) Could the female walk for miles, dig out deep roots or gather nuts and carry home 40 pounds of forage as well as 1 or 2 children on her body?
Just sayin'.
I agree with Barbey Girl that it takes considerably more work --FOR MOST PEOPLE--than the minimum to get 'ripped.' I was dedicated to that end, once. Now I'd settle for being able to hike, carry a pack, scramble over a hill or rock or two, and still enjoy myself doing it.
Started off in pretty good shape and have made significant improvements in ~9 months.
At about 11%bf now but to get into the single digits, it's going to take more than the 80/20 as stated above.
I'd say if you stuck to it 100% for a year (depending on where you start), you'd be a new man :D
I'm probably as lean as Grok, but I could use some more muscle on me.
I'm 5'8'' at 117 lbs and ~9% body fat.
I'm not looking to be ripped but I will say that after 6 weeks on PB with about 98% compliance, wow- I think I look fabulous. I do work out, but not chronically like in the past. I would say I have more a Playboy Mag physique than Bodybuilder Mag physique, without the airbrushing of course, because I'm a real person, but that's fine with me. I'll take it.
I weight in around 140 lbs at 5'8'' with ~7% BF.
I must admit I have always been lean regardless of food intake, but I have been primal for almost a year and have remained at said body fat the whole time without discomfort.
im 5`6, 128 lbs and around 15%BF... i have been the same for years now but i went from skinnyfat to strong and lean in about a year after starting evfit (marks blog wasnt around then). Ive been gaining muscle continuously since then.
Nope. Been Primal for 8 months now. Followed WAPF diet before that for a year. It's a guestimate as to my body fat, but probably somewhere in the 36%-48% range.
I think being ripped is more a modern goal, don't think Grok or modern hunter gatherers in general are ripped.

CARACAS, Venezuela — A man with Metro Detroit connections is jailed in Venezuela, accused of being a trained spy intent on provoking civil unrest in Caracas, Venezuela, the New York Times reported Thursday.
Timothy Hallett, 35, whose father Emmett Hallett lives in Grosse Pointe Farms to the northeast of Detroit, was arrested Wednesday after visiting Caracas, Venezuela, where he was working on a film, according to the Associated Press.
Urged by his father to leave the politically volatile country, Hallett was arrested by intelligence police at the airport when he was attempting to exit the country, the AP reports.
Venezuelan officials claim they searched the U.S. citizen's vacated apartment and found pictures and videos that led to his arrest as a spy.
Hallett is said to have struck up a relationship with student activists who were protesting the outcome of the country's April 14 election in which Nicolás Maduro, a longtime underling of former longtime Socialist president and U.S. adversary Hugo Chavez who died in March, was elected.
Maduro's opponent, Henrique Capriles Radonski, who narrowly lost the election, has accused Maduro of rigging the vote.
U.S. Embassy and Caracas officials declined comment when questioned by the New York Times.

Published and Developed by EA Sports
"If its in the game, then its in the game (and about 20 bazillion other things)"
On the surface, this is the typical EA Sports production. A solid continuation of near perfection from a previous year's title with enough additions to be worth re-purchase. Unfortunately the extensive attempts at replayability create a game far to elementary to hardcore gamers.
To be fair, you must work at finding flaws in any modern EA Sports game, which is the case here. The seemingly limitless amount of customization of created golfers nearly creates a game within a game, the huge number of courses make you wonder how they fit everything onto a single DVD, and special extras such as scenarios, unlockable characters, real time events (varying gameplay depending on the day listed in the XBOX internal clock), and entertainment based arcade-style modes (whew, catch my breath) looks like a game of endless depth.
Very interestingly this game compares very well with my last review of WWE Raw 2. Fun gameplay with much diversity in game types, enormous customization options for create-a-player, and a fundamentally flawed season mode that kills the replayability (the one attribute that has immensly grown in importance in the latest generation of consoles).
The PGA Tour season mode should be the heart of the game. Creating your own golfer, creating your own course, unlocking new characters in the World Tour mode, and various arcade-style modes are meant for nothing more than the occasional break from the PGA. Unfortunately, within this heart of the game lies the most considerable flaw, difficulty.
Imagine a golfer that can drive over 350 yards without sweating, nail every iron shot within 15 feet of the pin, and can score under 50 on any course regardless of pin position and tee location; sounds like fun eh? Hardly. Playing nearly 2 months of one PGA year is like pulling teeth when on a bad day you score at least 10 shots better than everyone else in the field. Winning a major by over 50 strokes is a lot less fun than it sounds. The unfortunate thing is that it doesn't take long for a created golfer to reach this caliber. By simply completing the World Tour mode you will earn enough money to raise your golfer to at least as tough as Tiger Woods (Which is interesting itself since Tiger is near unbeatable one vs one, with birdies or better on nearly every hole on even the most difficult courses, but scores measily 2 or 3 under par rounds in season mode).
Gameplay - 10 / 10
Untouchable golf. No other game on the market, for any system, compares. 'Nuff said.
Graphics - 9 / 10
Create-a-golfer's look phenomenal, and some of the courses make you feel like you are watching a promotional tourist video rather than a hole in a golf game.
Sound - 7 / 10
You will be quite suprised upon firing up your new TW2004 to see an intro-movie with background music "Party Up" by DMX. Regardless of your taste in music, and even though the target audience of the game most likely owns an album of his, it was an odd choice (especially considering Madden contains much more 'feminine' music).
Overall - 8.5 / 10
Solid game, very good addition to any collection. This game goes out of its way to be fun for those who have never even picken up a golf club. Don't expect to be playing this game forever though, the PGA tour mode is a snooze and it isn't fun to play just to make more money and unlock things you won't use.
Suggestions for Developers
- XBOX Live, come on guys just make a deal with M$ already
- More advanced difficulty settings by scaling down player characters. Don't boost up others. I don't want to see Tiger shooting 20 under rounds, but rather have myself struggle to break par on the hardest difficulty.
- Different spin system. Too easy that you can change direction and magnitude of it while the ball is in the air.

This game is great. Good review. Though you did not mention; in the options for this game you can make the gameplay harder by not using caddy tips, no green grid and no spin. Why would you turn these features off? To make it harder if it's to easy. Check it out. I love playing my friends with my custom made player, he looks like my scruffy a$$. It's fun taking friends for $1(real) skins. I wholeheartedly agree about the online multiplayer being non existent. Get your shit together EA and M$. Then Paypal $1 skinz are on!! Here's hoping for 2005.

i cant believe that it has taken SO GODDAMN long for golf games to get
to this level of playability... pre tiger golf games ALL suck...
2004 is another game like tony hawk pro skater where the bar just
keeps getting raised, where tiger woods 2004 COULD have used the
same engine as 2003 with just different courses etc and been an
excellent game all the same...

Just a heads up people. It's almost time for Nordstrom's infamous half yearly sale. The date for this sale is only one day, Wednesday, June 16th, and one day only. The next date for the next big sale is not until the middle of July, for the Anniversey sale, Friday July 16th-Sunday July 30th. I'll post the other half year sale, when it gets closer to the time. Until then, happy shopping.

The score felt a bit high even with all the underrotations and the fall but I guess it makes sense somehow.
131--makes me wonder what yuna's gonna score if she's anywhere near clean tomorrow.
131.66. Still a great score, for a pretty tough skate. She fought through it though and great fashion. I like how everyone went "ooooooooooh" when the lights went out.
So Julia has the highest TES. Well deserved Julia ! As for Mao... omg why 2 3As? She should've kept her old layout... Anyway this GPF was a huge disappointment for me. I thought Adelina was gonna win after that huge combination in the beginning... but no. Erm... when is Yuna skating? Lol...
Over 130... Mao looks more like "What is this score?" too. I'm going to fall off my chair laighung if her 3A's got credit here while the one in the SP didn't.
Both of them got around 5 points or a bit less. Even with that, the score got reduced by another ~5 points at the end.
Really wasn't expecting Lipnitskaia to be able to silver here, and even more surprising is that Wagner got bronze with that performance. Radionova could actually have podiumed with a clean skate.
Well, wow, Mao won, and it shows that she's probably guaranteed a silver at least at Sochi. But... well, I know Mao will use this as a learning experience.
(That outfit really suits her BTW. Would't mind it being worn at Sochi.)
They actually gave Sotnikova full credit for the 3Lz+3Lo, YESSSS!!!!!!
Wagner rightfully got < call on her 3-3 and continues making mistakes in the second half because of how much that opening jump attempt takes out of her. Yet again proof that she needs to do this: http://www.goldenskate.com/forum/sho...odium-material
Julia was once again UNDERSCORED!
WOW at the mistake littered programs from all the ladies in the LP. It doesn't seem this event did anything to help the campaigns of each skater: Asada's toward Olympic gold or Lipnitskaia's, Wagner's, or Sotnikova's toward a clear favorite for Olympic bronze. Team Kostner and Team Suzuki are definitely not out of the Olympic medal hunt yet! The way I see it looking at the lackluster performances and low scores, no one's stock rose as a result of this event.
just woke up , but looks like a splatfest except for Julia, I would have had Julia winning
but PCS disparity between her and Mao atm is too high

Williams Co. said yesterday it would try to install a new 42-inch diameter pipeline in a narrower construction corridor than previously planned.
"There is some relief that the worst possible option is no longer being considered," Barbara Blumenthal, a resident of the area and member of the Princeton Ridge Coalition citizens group, said. "We have to wait for the details to see what this would actually look like in the field."
Blumenthal said the corridor would be reduced to a width of about 50 feet, which in some cases could equal the width of a pre-existing swath cut for a pipeline installed in 1958.
Williams has scheduled a walk along the proposed pipeline path next Tuesday at
3 p.m., and Blumenthal said she hopes then to find out more about how much tree cutting may be involved.
But the smaller construction zone is a "very important step in the right direction," Blumenthal said.
The pipeline is part of Williams' Transco system, which extends from the Northeast to the Gulf Coast.
The new Princeton portion would be part of the proposed 6.36-mile Skillman Loop, which would also run through Montgomery.
The pipe would carry natural gas from the shale fields in western Pennsylvania to out-of-state customers.
Williams is set to file a plan with FERC this fall, and if approved, construction would begin in fall 2014 and the pipeline would go into use a year later.
Residents have said they fear that a large construction corridor would make it difficult for the forest to rebound. Residents and town officials met with the company and representatives from the Federal Energy and Regulatory Commission to discuss their concerns and review the plans in early July.
Princeton Mayor Liz Lempert was at the meeting and said yesterday that the changes should "help significantly in reducing the environmental damage."
"It's a significant victory for the neighbors and the community," she said. "But with
that said, there are still concerns."
Since the project first came to fore in February, residents have expressed concern that the project's construction would not just harm the natural environment along the Princeton Ridge, but could pose safety risks to the community.
Residents have said the project could require blasting near houses and schools and alarmingly close to the existing pipeline, which could remain in operation and pressurized with gas as the work progressed.
The company is not required to shut down the line during construction and has not yet indicated if they will blast or not.
