I bought and read this book recently. I couldn't put it down, it was excellent.
I have noticed that books over here tend to be over priced but I haven't bought one for a while so i checked out what was on offer at B2S. Yeah, I found a great book called 'The Last Executioner' which is about a thai prison executioner. Well worth checking out as it's really griping, a bit heavy in places but a real page turner. Anyone else read anything good lately.

Read Underworld by Don Delillo. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Michael Connelly, The Lincoln Lawyer is worth a read.
You shop at B2S? Boycott B2S. They shrink wrap their books so you can't browse in the store. See this thread.
How about the library, Neilson Hays it's called. I checked it out today with my family and thought they had a great selection of books, the kids section was very good, annual subscription is 2800bht for a family or 2000 for adult...www.neilsonhayslibrary.com Now we can spend more money on beer!!
Read "A Time of Gifts" by Patrick Leigh Fermor. True story. Lad gets kiced out of school and at 17 years of age, for lack of naything better to do, decides to walk from Holland to Istanbul during the early 1930s. 50 years later he writes up his travels in retrospect of the second world war, etc.

ASHTABULA, Ohio - Lakeside scored first, but Willoughby South scored more in a 45-7 road victory for the Rebels.
Dylan Caruso kickstarted the Rebels, ranked No. 22 in the cleveland.com Top 25 poll, after the Dragons' first quarter touchdown.
Caruso dashed 85 yards for a touchdown on a kickoff return to knot the score at 7-7. The sophomore wide receiver reached the end zone again later in the quarter, this time on a 60-yard touchdown catch from Russell Porter.
The Rebels added two scores in the second quarter on a pair of Shawn Mackey 1-yard runs.
Andre Smith kept the Rebels going in the second half, dashing 32 yards into the end zone to increase Willoughby South's lead. Porter notched his third touchdown pass of the day later in the third.

Love backs Woods and Stricker
The last time Tiger Woods and Steve Stricker played together they did not win a hole and did not make a single birdie.
- Related Content
That was last November when they were crushed 7&6 at the Presidents Cup by Adam Scott and KJ Choi. It tied the biggest defeat in the event's history.
The time before that they were hammered 6&5 by Luke Donald and Lee Westwood, who were a brilliant five under par in foursomes at Celtic Manor. It was the biggest loss of Woods's Ryder Cup career.
Yet American Ryder Cup captain Davis Love has brought them back together in Chicago and they go out in the last of the morning foursomes against Ian Poulter and Justin Rose.
Woods and Stricker did, however, win their first six games together, including their opening two in Wales, and Love said: "They play very well together.
"I didn't go back and study Tiger Woods and Steve Stricker's record before I put them together.
"They wanted to play together and they have done pretty well together, so I'm going to let them go."
Woods, who has been on only one winning side in six appearances, said: "Strick and I are very comfortable together.
"We've had some pretty good success over the years and we both have been playing well. Our captain said that would be a good fit, and he wanted us out there to anchor.
"It's just a matter of what our captain thinks is best for the team. We've got to go out there and earn our point.
"We know what to expect from each other. There are no hidden surprises out there for us - we've been through a lot of matches together."
He has two wins out of two against Poulter in the match, but the Englishman has won eight of his other nine games.
What Love found hardest was telling his two major champions this season - Masters winner Bubba Watson and US Open winner Webb Simpson - and also Matt Kuchar and Dustin Johnson that they were not playing the first session.
"I had to talk to four of my guys and somehow come up with a rational explanation of why they weren't going to play," he said.
"But these guys we thought made really, really good alternate-shot teams and that's what we decided to go with.
"I've got four of the best players in the world that love this golf course sitting on the bench and I'm going to have to get them in the game."
That will probably be in the afternoon fourballs and Europeans Paul Lawrie, Peter Hanson, Martin Kaymer and debutant Nicolas Colsaerts will be hoping the same applies to them.
For the first time since 1995 the opening game does not feature either Phil Mickelson or Woods. Jim Furyk and £7million FedEx Cup winner Brandt Snedeker start things off for the home team against world number one Rory McIlroy and Graeme McDowell.
"Order-wise there was not a whole lot of rhyme or reason to it, except that maybe pace of play Brandt likes to get out there and get after it," Love added.
Mickelson, winning an American record ninth cap, follows alongside newcomer Keegan Bradley.
"Obviously Phil and Keegan are a little bit excited to be playing too, so get them going," Love said, "and then we've got some pretty cool customers at the end."
Zach Johnson and Jason Dufner are the third pair against Westwood and Francesco Molinari, while Mickelson and Bradley play unbeaten foursomes pair Luke Donald and Sergio Garcia.

The Longines Kentucky Oaks is America's premier and most lucrative race for 3-year old fillies – female horses - held each year on the day before the Kentucky Derby. This feature race is a $1 Million Grade 1 stakes race and awards the winning filly a garland of lilies, appropriately named "lilies for the fillies." Like the Kentucky Derby, the Longines Kentucky Oaks race is one of the longest continually held sporting events in American history, and one of the only horse races to take place at the original site of its inception. The race was established on May 19th, 1875, by the same founder of the Kentucky Derby, Colonel Meriwether Lewis Clark, and is modeled after the British Epsom Oaks. View the fillies in the Longines Kentucky Oaks.
Kentucky Oaks Day at Churchill Downs is the fourth highest attended horse race in the United States – following the Triple Crown of racing; the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness Stakes, and the Belmont Stakes. Aside from thunderous live horse racing, fans celebrate fashion and fundraising for critical women's health issues.
During Kentucky Oaks Day, the historic racetrack is decorated in pink bunting and the more than 100,000 guests are asked to prominently incorporate pink into their attire in an effort to raise funds and drive national attention to the fight against breast and ovarian cancer.
Churchill Downs has partnered with Bright Pink, the only national non-profit organization that focuses on the prevention and early detection of breast and ovarian cancer in young women. Bright Pink's innovative programs equip, educate, and empower young women to be proactive by reducing their risk or detecting these diseases at early, non life-threatening stages.
Through this partnership, Churchill Downs will donate $50,000 to Bright Pink, to be used towards the education, support, and empowerment of young women nationwide in prevention of breast and ovarian cancer. Churchill Downs invites Kentucky Oaks fans, like you, to donate, too! In addition to the online donations accepted here, donation stations will be located throughout the Churchill Down facility on Kentucky Oaks Day, so you can make a cash or check donation to Bright Pink and receive a pink ribbon to accessorize your Kentucky Oaks attire!
Furthermore, Churchill Downs will continue to support the mission of Horses & Hope, which is a regional organization that increases breast cancer awareness, education, screening and treatment referrals among Kentucky horse industry workers and their families. Churchill Downs will donate to Horses and Hope $1 for the sale of each Oaks Lily, the official drink of the Kentucky Oaks.
If you are planning to attend the Kentucky Oaks, we encourage you to wear any color as long as it is PINK — from hats to handkerchiefs, suits to sundresses, sunglasses to stilettos! Churchill Downs invites you to THINK PINK when planning your attire for Kentucky Oaks day, in honor of the Oaks official flower — the stargazer lily — and in support of Churchill Downs' official partnerships with Bright Pink and Horses & Hope.
You can show off your pink duds in the Longines Kentucky Oaks Fashion Contest, for an opportunity to win a Longines time piece. The contest will take place on the Pink Carpet on Kentucky Oaks day.

If you like subtle coaching chess matches, the DAC was the right venue last night. Drexel's Bruiser Flint and first-year Hofstra coach Mo Cassara were matching move for move.
The difference was not coaching. The difference was Charles Jenkins. And Hofstra had him.
There were several NBA scouts in the house, including Portland's Steve Rosenberry and Orlando's Dave Twardzik, the man who practically became a resident of Philadelphia 7 years ago when he was watching Jameer Nelson's every move during the national Player of the Year's senior season at Saint Joseph's. The scouts were there to see Jenkins.
They saw an understated player who has started all 108 games in his career and has zero wasted motion on the court. If he is open, he shoots. If he is covered, he passes. He does not make bad plays.

My Blush Response is Working Overtime
It wouldn't be telling much of a secret to let y'all know that I keep my birthdays sort of quiet. I'm not the sort to do big celebrations, I don't like surprise parties, and some of my least pleasant memories revolve around my special days. So I tend to hide a little bit.
But it's hard not to feel a little special when people remember, or when your buddy gives you the gift of music, or when your fellow bloggers drop by to give you well wishes and a little ribbing. It's even harder to avoid feeling like a heck of a guy when Mr. Lady says such nice things. In fact, my blush response is working overtime.
I'm all twitterpated now.

When someone gets to ResurrectionSong via Google search, I generally consider that search to be a question of sorts. Today, instead of thinking of that search as a question, I'm thinking of it as a statement (and not a very pretty statement, at that).
Mr. Answer doesn't really know what you're looking for, ma'am, but he hopes you find it in a safe, clean, and reasonably price manner. Remember the key to any business: customer service.

What is in this article?:
- Push wheat during early season for top yields
- Provide all resources
- Will hold back tillers
• It's important, says Larson, that growers understand the physiology and development of wheat so they can realize as much yield as possible.
• In terms of management, growers usually focus on the springtime in terms of its significance to wheat management.
• But just as important are the fall and early spring when the wheat is going through the tillering stages.
MISSISSIPPI STATE UNIVERSITY Extension agronomist Erick Larson explains the finer points of early season wheat management during the Central and South Alabama Wheat Expo, held in Montgomery, Ala.
Will hold back tillers
"Some of these small-stature winter weeds are not on the upper part of our radar screens in terms of competition with wheat because they don't look very significant. But they will hold back tiller development in the spring."
Herbicide application can have an influence in wheat yields, as shown in trials conducted in Mississippi, he says.
In his state, says Larson, a lot of the wheat crop is grown in the northwest or Delta region, with flat soils and poor surface drainage. This results in problems with water management and soil saturation.
"That makes it very difficult in terms of nitrogen management for wheat production. Our wet winters can cause de-nitrification and leaching. So we apply nitrogen only in the fall when we're planting wheat late or have very thin stands, or where we're planting into a pasture or where we need to break down the residues that are tying up nitrogen in the production system."
Mississippi growers don't apply much nitrogen in the fall because they know they're going to lose it over the winter, says Larson. This makes application timing during the spring very important.
"If we go out too late with that first application of nitrogen, we're not going to supply the nutrition needed to support as many tillers as that wheat plant has the potential to produce, so we lose wheat potential right off the bat.
"If we do put out nitrogen during that time of the year — which could be during the first couple of weeks of February — the crop won't enter rapid nitrogen uptake until at least six or seven weeks after that time period. It won't hit those rapid growth stages until mid to late March. We don't want all of our nitrogen applied in early February, where it could be subject to tremendous nitrogen losses for five to seven weeks."
This is why, says Larson, split nitrogen applications are recommended on wheat in Mississippi. "There are years when we have a dry spring, and we probably won't get responses to split applications in those years."
Nitrogen, he says, should be delivered according to crop demands, and that means the first application in the spring after dormancy should probably be no more than one-third of the total spring-time nitrogen.
"Then, come back with the remainder of the nitrogen just prior to stem elongation. Some growers who have aerial application capabilities are not making that last application until a little bit later on in the vegetative stages. Then, it just needs to be put out prior to the boot stage."

Associated Press
HAVANA (AP) -- Havana is protesting its continued inclusion on the U.S. government's latest list of "state sponsors of terrorism."
A statement from the Cuban Foreign Ministry calls the designation "absurd." It accuses Washington of "political considerations" aimed at justifying the 52-year-old economic embargo against the island.
The U.S. State Department's global terrorism report for 2013 notes that Havana is hosting peace talks between the Colombian government and that nation's biggest guerrilla army. It says there is no information that the Cuban government is aiding any terrorist groups.
But it also mentions the presence of U.S. fugitives in Cuba. The Cuban Foreign Ministry statement countered late Wednesday that none are terrorists, and those who committed crimes were punished on the island.
The U.S. terror list also names Iran, Syria and Sudan.

Members of an Albuquerque church are picking up the pieces after vandals broke out several windows over the weekend.
Parishioners said four stained glass windows at the First United Methodist Church in downtown Albuquerque were broken Saturday night. Another was destroyed on Friday night.
The church is one of the oldest in the city, and those windows were created by the renowned Tiffany Studios.
"(They are) invaluable to us. I have no clue about monetary value. They're insured," reverend John McClean said.
The church plans to file for insurance to help repair the glass windows, which are about 50 years old.
The revered also believes other buildings in the area were targeted.

The Philadelphia Cup on Sept. 23 was a once-in-a-lifetime regatta - at least the participants all hope that what happened will not occur again in their lifetimes.
Weather that began as sunny skies and ideal winds suddenly turned ugly. Hurricane Hugo's long reach was a brief but terrifying tempest for the sailors trying to stay afloat - and alive - on the Delaware River off Penn's Landing. When the squall, with 65-m.p.h. gusts and steady blows of 45 m.p.h., had passed, the river was littered. Boats were capsized, a mast was splintered, spreaders were broken, sails were blown out, boats were far off course, and crews were vowing never to get in a boat again.

Two ordinary dual-processor Dell servers handle all of the computation and database management necessary to make sense of BioSeek's assays. That's fine with Evangelos Hytopoulos (who also goes by Vangelis), director for scientific and corporate informatics at BioSeek.
"One of the responsibilities I have is not to use a lot of money but [to] produce a lot of results," he notes wryly.
Instead, he and his team concentrated on integrating data acquisition with QA/QC, analysis algorithms, and visualization of the data. "We use some open-source tools, but all the integration was done internally. We also have acquired a product from Cognia for knowledge management," he says.
The result, he says, is IP worth protecting, "[Virtually] all of the algorithms are not disclosed in the papers, and the reason for that is uniqueness of the way we found we have to analyze the data. We have applied for patents for some."

The erythrocyte is the only cell in the human body which normally has no nucleus throughout its functional lifetime. Unbothered by the concerns of reproduction and further differentiation, it pursues its career as an indispensable member of the body's cellular team with an unmarred, vacant countenance. For the visage of a red blood cell to develop a blemish is an unusual phenomenon and deserves the observer's attention because it often is an indication of disease. Correct diagnosis may depend on recognition of red cell cytoplasmic inclusions. The erythrocytic inclusions to be discussed in this paper are itemized in the Table with pertinent comments.
Splenic Functions
Two functions of the spleen pertinent to red cells are to "cull" defective or malformed erythrocytes from the circulation and to "pit" intracellular inclusions from erythrocytes which contain them.1 By the former is meant that the spleen monitors the red cells which journey through

U.S. national team coach Jurgen Klinsmann has named a 20-man roster for the upcoming January camp that includes several players based in MLS or abroad who had been overlooked somewhat controversially during the new manager's first four months in charge.
MLS defender of the year Omar Gonzalez (L.A. Galaxy), Houston Dynamo star center back Geoff Cameron, rookie of the year C.J. Sapong (Sporting Kansas City) and 2010 World Cup contributor Benny Feilhaber (New England Revolution) are among the MLS players who finally will have their chance to impress Klinsmann.
Defender Michael Parkhurst, who has been in outstanding form in Denmark, also will get a look.
"This is a very important opportunity for these players," Klinsmann said in a statement. "They are the next in line behind the established players, and this is a chance to prove themselves. We will spend the next few weeks introducing them to our ideas on how we want to play and what it means to be a part of the national yeam. Ultimately, it will create more depth for us, which you need at this level. I'm very curious and excited to see this group."
The team will report to Phoenix on Jan. 3 and then head to The Home Depot Center outside Los Angeles to continue training. Coach Caleb Porter's Under-23/Olympic team will be in L.A. as well, and there is the potential for some crossover.
The vast majority of European-based players who are in the middle of their club seasons were not considered for a call-up for the January camp.
The camp will conclude with exhibition matches against Venezuela (Jan. 21) and Panama (Jan. 25).
The roster
Goalkeepers: Bill Hamid (D.C. United), Sean Johnson (Chicago Fire) and Nick Rimando (Real Salt Lake).
Defenders: Geoff Cameron (Houston Dynamo), A.J. DeLaGarza (L.A. Galaxy), Omar Gonzalez (L.A. Galaxy), George John (FC Dallas), Zach Loyd (FC Dallas), Michael Parkhurst (FC Nordsjaelland) and Heath Pearce (Chivas USA).
Midfielders: Kyle Beckerman (Real Salt Lake), Ricardo Clark (Eintracht Frankfurt), Benny Feilhaber (New England Revolution), Jeff Larentowicz (Colorado Rapids), Brek Shea (FC Dallas) and Graham Zusi (Sporting Kansas City).
Forwards: Juan Agudelo (New York Red Bulls), Teal Bunbury (Sporting Kansas City), C.J. Sapong (Sporting Kansas City) and Chris Wondolowski (San Jose Earthquakes).

In a musical world where Adele is all-singing and all-selling, every British female vocalist in the last five years is held up to compare with 007's new favorite. Whether they're vintage soul (Duffy), operatic (Florence Welch of the Machines), or annoyingly pop-hop (Jessie J), Adele's name comes into play.
Then there's Ellie Goulding, who sold out the Electric Factory on Friday. Since her 2010 album debut, Lights, the soprano with the piercing vibrato has sold records. Her reserved cover of Elton John's "Your Song" (performed in grand, soppy fashion Friday) was a Brit smash, especially after she sang it at the Buckingham Palace wedding reception for Prince William and Kate.

Spin spin sugar
Laura Slattery
Overdosing on sugar may be a traditional Valentine's Day celebration / survival strategy, but lately the world's supply of the sweet stuff has slumped like human energy levels – ooh – approximately 20 minutes after chocolate mallow consumption.
Prices hit a 30-year high recently after Cyclone Yasi was estimated by the producers' group Canegrowers to have obliterated at least a quarter of Queensland's sugar cane crop. As a result of the damage in Australia – the world's third largest sugar exporter – commodity forecasters including Rabobank have warned that global sugar output will probably fall short of demand this year. For its part, the European Union is mulling higher import limits following the panicky clearing of supermarket shelves in Portugal in December.
Before the birth such complicated deficit-enhancers as CFDs, CDOs and CDSs, there was a time when commodities occupied a more central part of the financial news. This "Dublin Weekly Sugar Report" from the Irish Times of April 15th, 1889, could easily be used to describe last week's frenetic global sugar trade: "The market has continued to move upward, with considerable rapidity and with some excitement, broken only by momentary pauses… Business has been very large and has partaken a good deal of a speculative character."
Updates from Liverpool produce markets into the 20th century went into superfine detail on "Messrs. Tate and Lyle's" quotations for crystals, granulated and yellows, even citing a price for "Afternoon tea" cubes. Today, raw sugar is the most commonly quoted benchmark, though white sugar futures are studied carefully by food analysts eager to calculate margins and growth prospects for companies, including Tate & Lyle, in the refined sugar and sweetener business.
The sugar rush in Portugal – the first European country to face a shortage of sugar in more than 30 years – was a brief, temporary affair and some forecasters predict that greater output from Brazil could actually prompt a swing into a world sugar surplus. Still, life without cheap-and-ready access to glucose is something to ponder next time the winds gather up in a crop-destroying frenzy: Valentine's Day 2012 could be a bitter one for more than just the broken-hearted.

This review is from: Phanteks Enthoo Pro series PH-ES614PC_BK Black Steel / Plastic ATX Full Tower Computer Case
Pros: Awesome case. Its huge, great airflow, great for liquid cooling although you probably dont need it. I love the fan port that adds 6 more fan capability in addition to the mobo. Taking it apart is fun. Handy box for different screws. Love the cable management. Easy case for first time builders, and even better for enthusiast (but should get the window version).
Cons: Not enough to take the 5 star away but the ssd bracket didnt work too well with my ssd. I had to get a screw gun and just put one scew in it to work. You can easily just use the sticky stuff and mount the ssd anywhere though. I do regret not getting the one for 10 bucks more with the window, it would of been awesome.
Other Thoughts: Also pro or con depending on what you want, but they give two fans so you going to need to buy more leaving the option for buying custom fan or liquid cooling (pros) or buying extra regs (con) if you want great cooling. Personally I bought 5 2-pack led 120 blue fans (10 total) because its in my cool basement. It looks really sweet I must say. It claims it can support 10 120mm fans but it can only use 9 at a time. Either you can have two on bottom and take one of the hdd cages out and put a fan on the one hdd cage or leave the two hdd cages in with fans and one on the bottom.READ FULL REVIEW

Rehabilitating Tinker: A Modest Proposal to Protect Public-School Students' First Amendment Free-Expression Rights in the Digital Age
Aaron J. Hersh
University of Iowa - College of Law
March 27, 2012
98 Iowa L. Rev. 1309 (2013)
The First Amendment provides limited free-expression protections for public-school students, though the Supreme Court precedent on the issue is limited to four cases. None of these opinions enunciate the breadth of students' free-expression rights for online, off-campus expression. As a result of this shortcoming, multiple circuit courts have reached conflicting conclusions when called on to determine whether schools have violated students' rights when school administrators punish students for online expression. This inconsistency contributes to confusion — among students, school administrators, and the public at large — that threatens to undermine students' First Amendment rights. In order to ameliorate this problem, this Note proposes a modified approach that reinvigorates the Tinker v. Des Moines Independent School District standard. This standard would only allow school administrators to regulate off-campus, online student expression that infringes on the rights of other students or otherwise would seriously disrupt the operation of the school in ways that Tinker countenanced.

Nothing Ghastly About This One
Ghastly is the most recent creepy kid horror movie from South Korea. It is about Bin (Lee Hyung Suk), a boy who witnessed the brutal death of his parents. The reason behind their murders is still unknown at the beginning of the movie. His uncle Jang Hwan (Park Sung Min), takes him in and now lives with him along with his wife Sunny (Han Eun Jung) and her wife's sister Yoo Rin (Hyomin).
Ghastly suffers from the lack of originality of the story. None of the scenes are scary at all. You can predict what will happen next. It features a lot of formulaic moments already done in past horror movies.
One of the things I like about Ghastly is Han Eun Jung. Her performance is convincing enough to convey that something terrifying is happening around her. It's a bonus that she's easy to the eyes. The audience knows that the boy is evil but Sunny is clueless about it. This is a bit frustrating and there are times that you would want to knock some sense into her.
Hyomin of T-ara plays Sunny's little sister. I don't have any problems with Hyomin because I'm a T-ara fan. I do have some issues with her character. Yoo Rin appears to be a spoiled brat who competes for her sister's attention. Her sister is experiencing some financial problems and yet you see her partying in a club with her T-ara friends. To be honest, I expected her to be the first one to die.
Overall, Ghastly is a bad horror movie. There really is no reason to watch it except if you're an Asian horror lover or a rabid T-ara fan.

Dr Mendelson's comments about our report focus on the role that perceptions play in the reactions of persons to extreme stress. Thus, it is necessary to emphasize that the use of the term nuclear accident in the title of our article was based on the indisputable fact that the occurrences at TMI were perceived as an accident by most segments of society. Whether the sequence of events and the damage to the nuclear core constitute an "accident" in a technical sense is an issue still being debated by engineers. We are not qualified to comment on the mechanical complexities of operating and controlling a nuclear facility.The media certainly gave a great deal of coverage to the evolving situation at TMI. Although many analysts of these events have argued that media coverage of the accident was "sensational and alarmist," our impression is that the media essentially reflected the confusion of

By GREG HAYES, firstname.lastname@example.com
Imagine, for a moment, if you will, the fabric of any fairy tale.
At its core lies one specific concept that, despite the story and its characters, will perpetually drive the plot in one way or another without fail: magic.
But throughout the past year, the Williamsport Area High School's production of "Beauty and the Beast" generated its own magic outside the realm of the tale's fantastic world, according to drama instructor and director Marie Fox.
That's because the play was about an eight-month long collaborative effort between the high school's drama and special needs students - an effort that came to fruition last Wednesday in the school's auditorium.
The partnership is nothing new to the high school, as this year marked the ninth year the two departments have merged, and for some of the students, particularly those with special needs, it was yet another chance to showcase their growing talent.
And that is where the play's magic, at least for this production, can be found.
"It is so amazing to witness how much they have grown," Fox said. "Their teachers tell me that they do more for us on stage than they do in the classroom. That is the magic of theater bridging the gaps, and why I believe in it so much."
The play starred Alexis Cohen as "Belle" and Doug Getgen as "Beast," and was partially funded by a grant from the Williamsport Education Foundation.
"Students like Doug Getgen, who have been in four shows, have become more confident and expressive," Fox said. "They were so apprehensive before. Now, they're superstars. I even joke with them about getting an agent and having a private dressing room."
Their time spent working on these shows has sparked in interest in some of the special needs students to become more involved in the Drama Club and other activities around the school, Fox said.
"I think that this has given them so much confidence," she added.
This year's decision to bring "Beauty and the Beast" to life was chosen, not only for its great characters, but also for its relevancy to the theme of the whole idea of the production: seeing people for what's on the inside.
"What goes through my mind first when I am preparing students for this kind of production is how can I make them the most successful, and how can I get them to work together as an ensemble when they initially see only each others' differences?" Fox said.
Reminding herself that it takes time, Fox said she knows the two groups eventually learn to be friends.
Using sensitivity training for her drama students helps to provide an easier segue into working with the special needs students and the challenges they might face along the way, she said.
"I had each of the special needs teachers talk to my students about their specific class of students without (them) being in the room," Fox said. "That way my kids could ask questions and not feel as if they couldn't be candid."
To help strengthen their tolerance and understanding, Fox said she showed her students the 2003 movie "Radio," starring Cuba Gooding Jr., which is about a football coach who befriends a mentally-challenged man, and the development of that friendship over several decades.
"It's funny, but somehow kids always know how to do this better than adults," she said. "They are a little afraid at first, but they are willing to try, which is all I need to get them hooked."
From there, the rest is history, and the year-long project culminated in what Fox described as an "absolutely wonderful" performance.
"It wasn't perfect, but that is what made it so amazing," she said. "The kids did more than they ever thought they could. They showed everyone that despite their differences, they can really do big things. They also illustrated that when you imagine the possibilities, you don't see the impossible."
Autistic aide Karen Benson and Brenda Yahner, a life skills aide, witnessed the enjoyment and spirit seen in the students as they performed.
"If you looked into the kids' eyes while they were performing, their eyes just shine, because they are enjoying it so much," Benson said. "It makes it worth it."
After the play, Larry Newman, 16, who played the wooing and antagonizing "Gaston," was one of those students who beamed with excitement.
"We did an awesome job," he said. "I'm proud of all of us."
Ema Drnda, 18, was one of the storytellers. She is an exchange student from Bosnia who took part in this kind of production for the first time.
"I loved this experience and I am going to miss everyone so much," she said.
"It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience," added Tyler Cochran, 15, who played "The Baker." "I got to meet new friends and new teachers. It was an awesome experience."
At the end of yet another successful production to cap of the school year, Fox said this is a project that is "always an emotional endeavor for me."
"I can't do this without letting these kids into my heart," she said. "This year was even more emotional because of the nature of the show. I am in awe of their courage and their willingness to not let anything stand in their way."

Surf books are the best way to learn about the history and culture of surfing. Classic surfboards, alternative lifestyles, surf memoirs, heritage, and science of the waves have been published in quality reading materials.
When waves are too small or too big, there's nothing like a cold beer or hot chocolate, by the seaside, with a good looking surf book in our hands. Time will pass and you won't notice. There's so much to learn and discover in surf books that you'll be looking forward to get a new one.
Surf books are usually written by passionate surfers or surf journalists. More than the usual surf industry propaganda, books about surfing have something to reveal. A new wave, a new surf destination, a new wave peak, the transformation of coastal regions, history of wave riding and lives of the surf legends.
Fortunately, surfing has been building an important book legacy, through time, and surf publications are frequently released.
A good surf book will teach you something that applies to the real world. How did surfboards evolve? Knowing how and why the single fin era got to the thruster fin system will definitely make you think about your daily fin setup.
SurferToday.com has selected a small sample of high-quality surfing books. There are thousands of excellent salt water titles for your pre or post surfing sessions. Here's what our bookshelf tells about wave sports:
"The Encyclopedia of Surfing", by Matt Warshaw, is the most important surf book ever published. It features 1,500 alphabetical entries and 300 illustrations, and is widely considered the most comprehensive review of the people, places, events, equipment, and lively history of surfing. A must-have.
"The World Stormrider Guide Volume 1, 2 and 3", by Bruce Sutherland, is the most detailed surf spot guide ever published. The trilogy explores the most famous surf peaks by adding description, photos, swell and wind patterns, ocean floor characteristics, and surf statistics.
"The History of Surfing", also by Matt Warshaw is a great book for those wishing to learn how surfing was seen by James Cook, back in 1778. At nearly 500 pages, with 250,000 words and more than 250 rare photographs, this is something you should add to your surf library.
"The Surfboard", by Ben Marcus, book has every single example of surfboard shapes and formats. From the first wooden and balsa boards to the modern materials, this surf book shows you monstrous 'koa' planks from the ancient Hawaiian. Incredible.
"Surfing: The Manual: Advanced" by Jim Kempton, is the best coaching manual for intermediate and advanced surfers. Get step-by-step photographic sequences with intuitive training captions, covering every maneuver in surfing. A fundamental surf book.
"The WetSand WaveCast Guide to Surf Forecasting", by Nathan Todd Cool, is one of the best surf science books in the market. Know the explanation behind waves, winds, water temperatures, tidal swings, etc. Learn how to predict when swells will arrive, how big waves will be, and telltale signs of common hazards.
"Surfing Hawaii", by Rod Sumpter, is a complete guide for the most well-known to the not-so-well-known surf spots in the Hawaiian Islands, from Tavaras Bay on Maui to Waimea Bay, on Oahu to lesser-known Manele Bay, on the island of Lanai. Very useful.
"Making Mavericks: The Memoir of a Surfing Legend", by Frosty Hesson, is more than just a testimony of a Mavericks big wave pioneer. It tells the story behind the passion and ambition of Jay Moriarity, through the eyes of his mentor. It has lessons for our lives and careers. Better than many MBA classes.
"Surf Forecasting for Invasions During World War II", by John C. Crowell, tells the surprising true story of how a oceanographic meteorologist worked on wave forecasting for the planned Allied Invasion of Normandy. Crowell studied at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, La Jolla, and ended up forecasting swell for the D-Day. Absolutely incredible.
"Surfing: Vintage Surfing Graphics", by Jim Heinmann, features the ads, magazine covers, newspapers and even a letter postmark from the crazy surfing 60s. The beach babes of California and the surf traffic signs. A must have for photo lovers.
"Surfing The World", by Chris Nelson and Demi Taylor, is a great pocket guide. If you're traveling and surfing never forget this book. Spot after spot, every beach of the world gets its surfing characteristics, from wind direction to swell.
"Fit to Surf", by Rocky Snyder is the ultimate surfer's guide to strength and conditioning. Stay fit and learn the best physical exercises before you hit the waves. Features sample workout programs for more demanding maneuvers.
"Surfer Magazine: 50 Years", by Sam George, is a collection of the best features and most iconic images that made Surfer Magazine, in the last five decades. The ultimate stories, the legendary surf personalities, the evolution of surfboard design.
Discover our complete library of surf books.

Mississippi vote brings hope: Letters to the editor
Is there hope for the re-emergence of moderation and cooperation in America's polarized and obstructed two-party politics?
Before the recent bitterly fought Republican Senate primary in Mississippi, I would have said no, but there is light and hope for moderation at the extreme end of America's tea party tunnel.
In a turn of what can only be called political poetic justice, up to 35,000 traditionally Democratic minority voters, for whom tea party extremists have a thinly veiled contempt, turned out to vote against tea party Republican candidate Chris McDaniel and for the more moderate party-line-crossing Republican Thad Cochran.
This sophisticated and successful exercise of political power by minority voters in a majority Republican state is a powerful formula for bringing moderation back to the Republican Party and bipartisan political compromise and cooperation back into American politics.
This critical minority vote against Republican extremism means that the Republican Party can no longer simply ignore or marginalize significant numbers of minority voters in Republican strongholds because they can become a deciding factor in elections that allow cross-party voting in primaries.
Republicans would do well to remember that extremist candidates who show contempt for minority voters and who campaign against minority interests may be able to rally an enthusiastic opposition.

Television ads
earn notoriety
Another aspect of life in Erie: I was Googling the definition of the word "inane," and I found one of the dictionary listings was "television commercials in Erie, Pennsylvania."
Those who market our city should be aware of this. It may be well-known here, but because we pay a lot of money to watch those commercials, why not market it nationally to our advantage?
Watching commercial television has changed my life. The amount of, and inane character of, local television advertising has greatly improved my reading habits. Living here I spend much more time with books.
People who want to improve their quality of life, and their reading skills, should consider moving here. They will never watch commercial television again.

Freedom gives
way to betrayal?
Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. What have our U.S. House of Representatives, Senate and president received for betraying our country and the people they serve?
Every day a little more of our freedom is lost, something our Founding Fathers warned us would happen if we the people were not diligent in our duties as caretakers of this republic. Will we the people become a thing of the past, seeing their abusive use of power tear apart our great nation? We are told to be ashamed of our greatness, while apologizing to others for defending our way of life, for upholding the rights of others.
Our Justice Department and, yes, President Barack Obama work diligently to rid us of our Second Amendment under the premise of peace. Don't be fooled by their words; if we let this happen we will see our freedom finally erased.
Shortly our freedom of speech will be censored by the government we elected into office. People, read the writing on the wall before it is too late or one day we will kneel before our new king.
How did we let this happen? Time for change is now, so stand tall in the face of adversity and find the courage to eradicate those from our highest offices who have betrayed us and this republic by casting your vote this November at the ballot box for America's salvation, before we have lost all that was good.
Then let's pay close attention to what our employees are doing, so power and greed will not consume their souls, again.

Big money
controls politics
It has become clear that big-money spending by corporations in elections is a problem. Since the outcome of Citizens United, campaign spending has reached an all-time high. The top 32 super PAC donors in the 2012 election gave as much as President Barack Obama and challenger Mitt Romney raised from all of their small donors combined -- that's at least 3.7 million people giving less than $200 whose voices were overpowered by just 32 megadonors.
For too long, unaccountable special interests have had too much influence in our elections by virtue of the money they can spend. Campaign finance reform is important to restrict campaign spending in elections. As bad as the problem has been historically, the post-Citizens United era has only made things worse, with often-unknown spenders breaking records every election cycle. This year is expected to be no exception.
The U.S. Supreme Court, unfortunately, seems bent not on fixing this problem, but on making it worse. While winning a constitutional amendment to reclaim our democracy for ordinary citizens won't be easy, it's a fight worth having. And with 16 states and more than 500 communities across the country already on record as calling for an amendment, the momentum for victory is building.
The Senate should stand up for its constituents, not special interests.

I have fond memories of this activity as a kid. We would often do it at church or on road trips in the car. Now all of our RadRoadTrip readers can have the fun of recreating this activity for your own kids.
Our downloadable worksheet has a box with four sections. Each section of the box will be space for part of a body to be drawn by the participants. The first person will draw a head and shoulders in the top box. Then fold your drawing backward along the "Fold Here" line so that it is not seen by anyone else. Pass the paper to the next person who will draw the chest and upper arms. Fold that section over and pass the paper to the next person who will then draw the waist, hands, and upper legs. Fold that section over and hand to the last person who will draw the lower legs and feet. Unfold the paper and check out your creation. It is helpful to put notch lines on the top of each following section so that the person knows where to connect their body parts to yours.

Anti-Israel protest at Camden's Electric Ballroom
the Electric Ballroom
A dozen anti-Israel protesters interrupted a concert by 1980s punk bank The Fall in Camden on Tuesday evening.
The band, fronted by singer Mark E Smith, is set to perform in Tel Aviv in January 2010. Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) demonstrators calling for The Fall to boycott the date handed out leaflets outside of the Electric Ballroom venue.
On a Facebook page titled "Please don't play for Apartheid Israel" one of the protesters wrote: "The staff on the door at the Electric Ballroom were good.
"A couple of passers by questioned the effectiveness of boycott but weren't unpleasant."
They added: "Unfortunately we ran out of leaflets because we didn't realise how big the venue [w]as - something to remember to check for next time."
In the last year artists including Elvis Costello and the Pixies have called off Israel performances in the wake of pressure from pro-Palestinian groups. However others including Johnny Rotten and Missy Elliot have defied calls to cancel.

Trainers cautious on Santa Anita main track after project to add sand
There were only 52 recorded works on the main track Wednesday, a day after track maintenance crews completed a multi-day project to add sand to the surface.
Many trainers said they were taking a cautious approach to training Wednesday but planned more extensive works later this week. By comparison, there were 134 recorded works on Wednesday, Jan. 12.
Several trainers said the surface had responded well to the additional sand.
"I've asked a few of my riders, and they said it felt fine," trainer Jack Carava said.
Trainer Richard Mandella had one worker, One Nation, who worked five furlongs in 1:00.60.
"If anything, it's better," he said of the surface. "I think they did the right thing."
Track officials said sand was added to replace material lost during severe rainstorms in late December and early January when 15 inches of rain fell. The additional sand was expected to add a quarter-inch of depth to the surface.
Sand was added after the races last weekend and again after training Tuesday, when the surface was roto-tilled to mix the upper layer and avoid compaction.
A Z Warrior, Evening Jewel work
There were two notable workouts Wednesday. A Z Warrior, winner of the Grade 1 Frizette Stakes at Belmont Park in October, worked a half-mile in 47.60 seconds, the fastest of 19 recorded works at that distance. Evening Jewel, winner of two Grade 1 stakes last year, worked six furlongs in 1:12.80. Evening Jewel is being pointed to the $300,000 Sunshine Millions Distaff over 1 1/16 miles on Jan. 29, trainer Jim Cassidy said.
Cassidy said that Evening Jewel handled the track Wednesday.
"It doesn't seem any different," Cassidy said of the surface.
