Five men have been arrested in connection with a bomb plot for Ohio 82 bridge that spans over a national park in Cuyahoga Valley, the FBI announced Tuesday.
A complaint filed by the agency stated the men were arrested Monday evening and three of the suspects are "self proclaimed anarchists."
Fox affiliate WJW-TV identified the men as Anthony Hayne, 35; Douglas Wright, 26; Joshua Stafford, 23; Brandon Baxter, 20; Connor Stevens, 20.
The FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force ran an undercover sting operation to catch the men who reportedly were going to plant the explosive devices as part of a May Day protest.
The devices were not real so the FBI said the public was never in any danger.

HOWLAND - When former Howland High School athletic director Dave Mock named Dick Angle the football coach in 1998, the program was barely a speck on the Ohio high school map.
Fifteen years and nine playoff appearances later, there's a big orange dot on that map. Angle, who announced his resignation Thursday morning, played a prominent role in that transformation, reviving a floundering program by winning eight conference championships and posting a 108-56 record.
Angle remembers that day in 1998 when he accepted the challenge. What still stands out were the words of an unknown fan.
Article Photos
Tribune Chronicle file / R. Michael Semple
Former Howland High?School football coach Dick Angle spent 15 successful seasons leading the Tigers. He officially retired at a press conference on Thursday.
"There was a gentleman that came up to me immediately after introductions and I'll never forget what he said," Angle recalled. "He said, 'Now we're going to find out what you're all about, Angle, because you don't have the private kid anymore; you have the Howland kid.'
"I was taken aback by that. I asked him, 'How do you define the Howland kid because I'll tell you how I'm going to define him. He's going to be a gentleman off the field; they're going to play hard on the field, and they're going to make this community proud of what we do.' I hope that guy is still around. I'll ask him, 'How do you like the Howland kid now?' "
Angle's decision was based on a desire to spend more time with his wife, Bernadette, their son Marc and daughter-in-law in Florida. He's also cherishing the thought of spending time with his two grandchildren.
Angle coached in the area for 36 years, including 17 at Ursuline before accepting the Howland post. He also coached and taught at Lakeview (Pa.) High School, Sharon Kennedy Catholic and Keystone Oaks (Pa.). His career record of 262-161-3 includes 12 conference championships, 33 playoff appearances and two trips to the state semifinals.
"He's done a great job with our kids and bringing the program from where we were," athletic director Ron McCleary said. "We had football here for years but with sporadic success. He put us on the map as a team that was going to be successful year in and year out with seven straight league championships and seven straight playoff appearances. He's elevated our program to the next level."
Angle is proud of the success stories the program has helped produce for athletes after graduation. Howland has a 97 percent graduation rate among its football players and has sent more than 200 student-athletes to the collegiate level during Angle's tenure.
Angle talked about his immediate family as the primary reason for his decision. The difficult part is losing close contact with the extended family that is the football program.
"It was tough because I don't think I coached football; I coached family and accountability," Angle said. "I coached a style of being very loyal. I'm very lucky. I know so many things about my kids that their parents don't know. We share a lot of things. It's a family atmosphere."
Several football players attended the press conference. Star running back De'Veon Smith, who will attend the University of Michigan later this year, spoke for the group.
"Coach Angle is like a father figure to most of the guys here," Smith said. "We're going to miss him. We really appreciate everything you've done for us and we love you like a father. I know what you left here for us isn't going to change at all."
The football program had struggled to establish consistency prior to Angle's arrival. Mock ended the press conference in 1998 with a "Beat Kennedy" cheer. The advantage in that series eventually switched to Howland.
"One of the biggest wins in our program was the last game in '98," Angle said. "We were coming off a thumping in the ninth week and were playing a good Canfield team. We won that game. When we came back to the locker room our kids were so excited. They wanted to start working the next Monday.
"We pinpointed things we had to get done. We had to change the Kennedy series. We had to dominate that, and we did. We got into a good league (Metro Athletic Conference), and we took our thumps. It all started turning because we had a plan."
Angle's plan now is to spend more time with his family and perhaps coach a little football.

Have a love for chocolate but not the calories that can come with it?
Scientists at the University of Warwick in England say they've created chocolate with half the fat but the same great taste.
The concoction replaces cocoa butter and milk fats in chocolate with drops of fruit juice.
Lead author Stefan Bon and his colleagues used orange and cranberry juice less than 30 microns in diameter as the substitution. The juice drops were infused into milk, dark and white chocolate, then analyzed.
Their findings are published in the Journal of Materials Chemistry.
"Everyone loves chocolate, but unfortunately we all know that many chocolate bars are high in fat," Bon said in a press release.
"However, it's the fat that gives chocolate all the indulgent sensations that people crave," he explained.
The researchers admitted the varied chocolate does taste a bit fruity. The authors said the fruit taste can be diffused by using water and a small amount of ascorbic acid instead.
"We've established the chemistry behind this new technique, but now we're hoping the food industry will take our method to make tasty, lower-fat chocolate bars," Bon said.

The quieter you become the more you're able to hear.
Mawlana Jalaludin Rumi
In that case...yes, those folks are basically wasting their life.
But do you typically put a big amount of weight on your shoulders before you sit in daily activities? I think where our disconnect may reside is at the practical application of the movement. I'm not really into arguing how realistic the movement applies to real life scenarios.
Your injury would be good enough to make a case against heavy chest pressing movements. Similarly, if you blew out your knee then I'd feel that sprints may be something you'd want to proceed cautiously with.
I'm valuing chest presses in their ability to cause upper body hypertrophy. The fact that your dramatic thread title calls them useless is what got me to comment in the first place.
If a log heavy enough to require a 300lbs bench press falls on you then you're probably already dead. At the very least you would be in no shape to lift anything at that point.
In all of the universe there is only one person with your exact charateristics. Just like there is only one person with everybody else's characteristics. Effectively, your uniqueness makes you pretty average.
The bench is popular because it's an official powerlifting move, the only upper body one, and the one that builds big arms and pecs, which have become popularized due to bodybuilding (and being highly visible muscles). Nobody is really making a 'functional' argument for the bench press that I can see. Even Rip says that properly weighted pushups may be a better exercise, but 'you are going to bench anyhow, so bench it is'. I'm just getting my bench past bodyweight, it's probably my strongest lift, so I hate to hate on it, but it is clearly the least "functional" of the big lifts.
If you are new to the PB - please ignore ALL of this stuff, until you've read the book, or at least http://www.marksdailyapple.com/primal-blueprint-101/ and this (personal fave): http://www.archevore.com/get-started/
1. You get taken down by your opponent, and need to push up to recover your base.
2. Preventing your opponent from breaking your base down.
3. Tying up with your opponent - I like to push them around a bit to get them to come back at me, setting up a throw or a shot.
4. Blocking a shot (if you don't sprawl).
"Don't waste your time, or time will waste you."
You ever had sex with a really heavy person? Like REALLY heavy. Like turn sideways to fit through a garage door heavy. Then that person passes out on top of you after dripping sweat in your face for an hour. Unless you can successfully press them off of you you'll most likely die of fat fold induced asphyxiation. Thus, bench press saves lives, dudes.

EU-Russia Summit Identifies Priorities for Modernization Partnership
1 June 2010: The EU and the Russian Federation have launched a new partnership for modernization, including on energy and climate change, on the occasion of the 25th EU-Russia Summit, which took place in Rostov-on-Don, Russia, on 31 May-1 June 2010.
During the Summit, leaders discussed how to move the international negotiation process on climate change forward, and how to cooperate concretely on measures to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. They also discussed energy and energy-security related issues, including energy efficiency and sustainable energy development. José Manuel Barroso, President of the European Commission, stated that the EU and the Russian Federation already work closely on moving the international climate negotiations forward and will now also cooperate on promoting a low-carbon economy, through the exchange of expertise and joint research and an enhanced energy dialogue based on an improved legal framework.
Barroso also underlined that the Summit identified concrete priorities for the Partnership that aims to advance the EU and the Russian Federation's economies, as well as contribute to global recovery and stronger international economic governance. According to the resulting Joint Statement, priority areas of the Partnership for Modernization include: improving transport; promoting a sustainable low-carbon economy and energy efficiency, as well as international negotiations on fighting climate change; enhancing cooperation in innovation, research and development, and space; and enhancing dialogue with civil society to foster participation of individuals and business.

PAUL MAHAR REACHES INTO A DARK CLOSET in his Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, apartment and pulls out a piece of his past—an Army dress jacket he wore in Vietnam. "It is weird to think," he says, "that whenever I used to put this on, I became Frank. I don't think I'd want to wear it again. It feels good to be myself."
More than 25 years after his return from Vietnam, Mahar, 46, has a bizarre story to tell. In his 406 days in Southeast Asia, he crawled through Viet Cong tunnels, risked his life to save a comrade, rose to the rank of sergeant and was cited for bravery. Yet the name on his medals and citations is not Paul Mahar but Frank Clouse.
The reason? Paul Mahar went to war—and became a hero—in his best friend's place. Even as Mahar was on ambush patrol, the real Frank Clouse, now 47, was hiding in New Jersey to avoid serving. "When I first arrived in Vietnam," says Mahar, "I kept thinking, 'What am I doing here? Why doesn't Frank get me out?''
Mahar's story begins in 1964 when, at 17, he dropped out of high school in Summit, N.J., to enlist in the Army. The third of four children of a bookkeeper and an IRS personnel manager, Mahar says he was a teenager with a "hard altitude," a washout in school who liked to drink with his buddies. "There was an unwritten rule," he says, "that if you were a troubled kid, the Army would take you and straighten you out. I thought they'd make me a better man."
Instead the Army rejected him because of a metal plate in his left arm. He had broken the arm one night four years earlier, wrestling with his friend Frank Clouse on a street corner in Newark, N.J., where their families then lived. "What happened that night," says Mahar, "would affect the rest of our lives."
In January 1966, Clouse was drafted. In August, after basic training at Fort Dix, N.J., and advanced training at Fort Polk, La., he was ordered back to Dix to ship out for Vietnam. Clouse, who had married his childhood sweetheart a year before, was terrified. "He was so paralyzed by fear," says Mahar, who was living in a Lakewood, N.J., boarding house at the time, "that I agreed to hide him so he could go AWOL."
A month after Clouse was supposed to report, and after his unit had already shipped out for Vietnam, the two devised a seemingly ingenious plan: Paul would assume Frank's identity and report to Dix; he would point out that he had a plate in his arm—and be rejected again. "In my mind," says Paul, "Vietnam was not a possibility."
It was very much a possibility, however, in the mind of the officer in charge of new recruits at Dix, who noted that "Private Clouse" had had no problem with training. He gave Mahar a choice: Vietnam or prison. Thus, without a day of military training, Mahar shipped out to join the 2nd Battalion, 27th Infantry in Cu Chi, 20 miles north of Saigon.
"My five days at Fort Dix are a blur," says Mahar. "I didn't call Frank because I thought the arm excuse would work when I got to Vietnam. But when I got over there, I was told, 'You're staying.' I felt a little panicked, but I wrote Frank a letter. I thought Frank would report in and I would be sent home. But he never stepped forward."
Instead, says Mahar, Clouse told his parents he was going to Vietnam, then hid out in Asbury Park. N.J. Clouse grew a beard, donned a beret and, when he ran short of cash, emerged from hiding to work the midnight shift at a doughnut shop, using Mahar's social security number.
"The whole thing was so absurd," admits Mahar, who corresponded regularly with Clouse while in Vietnam—often receiving tins of candy and cookies from Frank and his wife, Margie. "People ask today why didn't I speak up and stop it." The main reason, says Mahar, was that "I found out I belonged in Vietnam. The bonding of men at war was the strongest thing I'd felt in my life."
For Mahar—who was terrified that his lack of training would cause him to mess up and bring disaster to his comrades-in-arms—that bond was tested two months into his tour, when his platoon, on patrol, tried to cross a canal near Cu Chi in a sampan. On one crossing, the sampan overturned, dumping a GI weighted down with ammunition into the water. Mahar and the platoon leader dove in and pulled him ashore, where Mahar successfully performed artificial respiration. For his bravery, he was awarded the Army Commendation Medal—in Frank Clouse's name.
A couple of weeks later, Mahar volunteered as a "tunnel rat"—one of the most dangerous jobs in Vietnam. "I wanted to prove that I could be a real soldier," says Mahar, who at 5'8" and 135 lbs. had the right physique for crawling into holes with a flashlight and a .45-caliber pistol to flush out enemy soldiers. "But I kept pushing it and pushing it, until finally I got real scared. I felt my luck was about to run out."
On Dec. 19,1967, after extending his tour 45 extra days, Mahar was released from duty and returned to New Jersey. He phoned Clouse and told him, "We need to gel drunk and talk." Over a bottle of wine, Paul related his war stories—so that Frank could pass for a retuning veteran. He handed over his uniform, medals, photos. The next day Clouse returned home to his family. He later told Mahar he had wept when he told his father about the death of Richard Parham—one of Mahar's close Army buddies.
Mahar stayed with Clouse and his wife for a week. But the atmosphere was tense. "We had created a situation," says Mahar, "that neither of us knew how to handle. I had taken away his rite of passage, his manhood." Although Mahar would later talk to Clouse on the phone, he would never see him again.
Depressed and restless, Mahar hitchhiked across the country, taking odd jobs. During a brief stay in Atlanta, he even walked into an Army recruiting office and tried to enlist. But he was rejected once again when he mentioned the plate in his arm. "Vietnam had left an ache inside me," says Mahar, who missed the camaraderie.
In San Francisco in 1975, working in a nursery school, Mahar fell in love with a fellow teacher named Chris Roberts, marrying her in 1976 (they have a child, Molly, 14) and divorcing in 1981. He married once more in 1989 and divorced again two years later.
For the past six years, Mahar—a laid-off woodworker living in a two-bedroom apartment with a view of the majestic Coeur d'Alene Mountains—has been trying to regain the identity he both won and lost in Vietnam. In 1991 he wrote to the Army, telling them the truth about him and Clouse and asking to have his own service recognized. Last December the Army finally accepted his story—and agreed to send him the medals and citations he earned as Frank Clouse. (Army spokesman Maj. Bill Buckner says it is unlikely that Clouse will be prosecuted for his role in the switch.)
Mahar says he feels sorry for Clouse, who still lives in Mew Jersey and has refused to talk to PEOPLE. "There has to be a lot of stress, a lot of fear," says Mahar, who told Clouse he was going public with their story in 1988. "I wish he would just come out in the open, let it go."
"It's a strange feeling, giving up your identity," he says. "It took going to Vietnam to leach me that when it comes down to it, that's really all anybody has."

In Oregon, there is a tattoo shop. Well, okay, you caught us, there is more than one tattoo shop in Oregon and there may in fact be even more than one tattoo shop in Springfield. We are only concerned though with the tattoo shop known as Area 51. The folks in the shop "specialize in hyper-realistic tattoos." That is kind of awesome, kind of special, and kind of epic. Probably that's why this new series which focuses on Area 51 is called "Epic Ink."

At Christmas time, our thoughts go quickly to love . . . it's the time of year when we think of those dearest to our hearts.
Then there are those unexpected loves of our lives . . . the times when we have "A Choice to Love."
"When I look at him, I've never seen anything but the love of my life . . . this beautiful baby that I love so much." Liz Carl, who made an adoption plan after being raped at age 17.
"As a kid, I remember really struggling with this terrible thing that happened to my mom. I wouldn't want her to have to go through that but then I thought, I wouldn't be here otherwise," Jason Lovins, whose mother gave birth to him after being raped at age 15.
The new Sanctity of Life radio special from the Life Issues® Institute, "A Choice to Love," with Brad Mattes features the poignant stories of Liz and Jason which speak to how very precious the gift of life is - even when it's an outcome of a terrible crime.
"People tell me all the time you are so strong for doing that. I say thank you but . . . all women are strong enough to love their child enough to give them life," Liz.
"A Choice to Love" is an impacting 26:00 radio special which reminds us of the difference love makes - the difference it can make in saving a life.

text: 000 FXUS63 KDVN 252331 AFDDVN Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Quad Cities IA IL 631 PM CDT SUN SEP 25 2016 ...AVIATION UPDATE... .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 326 PM CDT Sun Sep 25 2016 At 19Z the surface cold front was bisecting the forecast area roughly from Galena S-SW just west of the Quad Cities to near Burlington. A broken line of thunderstorms has fired well ahead of this boundary from S central WI through south into central IL. Brisk west winds over eastern IA were pulling in an airmass in central Iowa with temperatures in the 60s and dewpoints in the 50s. Ahead of the boundary, temperatures were in the 80s wiht dewpoints in the upper 60s to lower 70s. An upper level trough was evident on water vapor imagery pushing out of the Dakotas into western MN and NW IA with visible images showing an extensive deck of stratocu along and east of this axis. && .SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Monday) ISSUED AT 326 PM CDT Sun Sep 25 2016 Temperatures are the primary focus as an incoming fall airmass with much cooler, drier air brings a sharp contrast to the very warm and humid conditions over the past week. Tonight, the post frontal weak showers, appearing to be mainly virga on area radars, will exit to the east this evening following the frontal passage. Low and mid level clouds may be slow to move out this evening until the upper trough axis passes through the region after midnight with subsidence and weakening surface winds. Dewpoints in the 40s over the northern plains will advect into the forecast area by morning with 850 mb temperatures around 5 deg C supporting lows from the upper 40s NW to lower 50s SE. Monday will have a definite fall-like feel, with gusty west to NW winds from 15 to 25 mph by late morning through afternoon and temperatures only reaching into mid 60s to around 70. .LONG TERM...(Monday Night through Sunday) ISSUED AT 326 PM CDT Sun Sep 25 2016 Monday night...Clear and seasonably cool Mon night with H85 MB cool rule support widespread lows in the low to mid 40s, with even some upper 30s possible in cool air drainage locations. But that would be with clear and calm conditions for optimum radiational cooling. Since we are forecasting mixing winds maintaining at least 5-10 mph overnight, will side more with widespread mid 40s, with both some lower 40s and upper 40s in spots. Tuesday and Wednesday...Main challenge this period in a blocked pattern is if cut-off upper cyclone can drop south-southwest enough out of the northern GRT LKS and spiral a portion of it`s associated stratocu shield and even some embedded showers acrs eastern portions of the CWA Tue night into Wed. The 12z ECMWF is the most bullish in this westward gyration with showers acrs the eastern 2/3`s of the CWA Tue night, then some diurnal flare up again on Wednesday in building column instability. Other solutions keep most of the precip to the east of the local area or just swipe the eastern fringe with instability showers on Wed ala 12z GFS. For now will raise non- mentionable POPs acrs the eastern third this period. Will also keep the more seasonable temps going with highs generally in the mid to upper 60s and lows in the 40s. Some deeper mixing and more insolation in drier airmass will also support a few 70 degree readings especially in the west/southwest. Thursday through next Sunday...General longer range trends suggest omega block to reign acrs the mid conus for dry and seasonable weather into the upcoming weekend. But will have to keep watch on the closed eastern cyclone for a westward retrograde toward the area like the latest ECMWF run suggests by this weekend. But longer range upper jet trends/teleconnections suggest the more normal looking 12z GFS may have a better handle for late in the period. ..12.. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Monday Evening) ISSUED AT 628 PM CDT Sun Sep 25 2016 Expect mainly low VFR ceilings overnight with a westerly wind below 10 kts behind an exiting cold front. There may be a few sprinkles or a brief period of light rain this evening. The wind will pick up again Monday morning, gusting above 20 kts. && .HYDROLOGY... Issued at 1242 PM CDT Sun Sep 25 2016 Flooding of several of the tributary systems across Iowa remains the primary hydrologic problem for today, while flooding along the Mississippi River continues to be forecast for the upcoming week. Cedar River: Forecast for major flooding continues. Vinton has now surpassed 20 feet and is still rising, placing it at the second highest level on record (unofficially). Confidence on the crest forecasts at Vinton, and more so at Cedar Rapids and Conesville, are moderate due to uncertainty with effects of attenuation as the high water routs downstream. The crest at Cedar Rapids was lowered a half foot down to 23.0 feet, but may be lowered further if Vinton crests below current forecast and effects of attenuation become more apparent. Either way, well above major flood stage is likely at Cedar Rapids from Monday morning into the middle of the week. Major flood stage is forecast at Conesville by the middle to end of the week. Iowa River: Excessive amounts of water continue to rout downstream through the Iowa and Cedar Rivers. There is high confidence on significant flooding, especially during the middle to end of the week. Exact timing varies by site. Low to moderate confidence is associated with the crest forecasts, or by how much a river level exceeds either moderate or major flood stage due to attenuation of the routed flow. Please follow forecast information closely throughout this event. Uttech The Wapsipinicon River at Independence experienced a large flow surge above the Major Flood stage last night, making for some uncertainty on the associated local flow contributions. The crest was adjusted upward, but recently the river level trends have slowed possibly indicating the Wapsi may finally be near crest at IDPI4 around 19.3 or 19.4 feet. Routing this enhanced recent flow from Independence downstream has produced increased crest forecasts of up to 2 feet higher at Anamosa Shaw Road, and up to a half foot higher near De Witt. Ranges at these two downstream sites may vary over the next 24 hours because of unknown attenuation factors. The Maquoketa River near Maquoketa also showed an overnight rise and will reach the lower end of minor Flooding early this afternoon, before dropping back down below flood stage tonight. The Mississippi River forecasts continue to show only minor or little adjustments in handling the large amounts of routed water coming from upstream that will work though the main stem system. Some locations will begin to see the river rise above flood stage early this upcoming week, while others may not see flood stage until the middle portion of the week. Crests on the Mississippi won`t occur until late week or into next weekend. Just minor adjustments of a slowed rise late in the week at Keokuk LD19 and Gregory Landing due to flow cut back at the Red Rock Dam on the Des Moines River. ..12.. && .DVN Watches/Warnings/Advisories...

WINTERSVILLE - Just because the Pittsburgh Steelers finished out of the playoffs two straight seasons doesn't mean Ben Roethlisberger is ready to give up on football.
Just because he was hitting home runs at PNC Park last week doesn't mean he's joining the Pirates, either.
Prior to last Thursday's game against the Chicago Cubs, Roethlisberger joined Andrew McCutchen, Jordy Mercer, Josh Harrison and the rest of the Pirates on field for a quick batting practice session.
"It was just a little bit of fun," Roethlisberger said. "The coaches were impressed with my hitting skills."
He mostly hit line drives to the outfield, but he counted at least two balls that left the park.
At Findlay High School, Roethlisberger played shortstop and was a three-sport standout before accepting a football scholarship to Miami University.
Roethlisberger, 32, is entering his 11th season in the National Football League. Drafted in 2004 out of Miami of Ohio, he won his first 13 games in a row to set a new rookie record. He became the youngest starting quarterback to win a Super Bowl title in his second season. He collected another Lombardi Trophy in 2010. Roethlisberger is Pittsburgh's all-time leader in career wins (88), passing touchdowns (219), passing yards (34,105) and pass completions (2,749).
"I've done it for a long time," he said. "I've been very blessed to have played this game as long as I have.
'There are a lot of things I've gotten to experience. I don't take anything for granted and I hope that I have many more seasons left in me."
The Steelers recently began organized team activities and Roethlisberger strapped on pads for the first time Tuesday to open minicamp at the team's practice facility on the South Side of Pittsburgh. Training camp begins July 26 at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, Pa.
"I've been doing this long enough that I don't get too antsy until I have to go to camp," Roethlisberger said. "This is just another year and another day.
"I get the feeling that it's close and the season will start before we know it."
The Steelers went 8-8 in 2013. In 2012, they also went 8-8 to miss the playoffs for the first year since 2006.
Roethlisberger admitted that the past two seasons have been "uncharacteristic" for the tradition-rich franchise that has won six Super Bowls.
"We just have to go out and do what we do best and that's win football games," Roethlisberger said. "We're going to give it everything we've got to work towards that ultimate goal of winning a Super Bowl."
Pittsburgh fans everywhere will now move forward with a guardian angel above them. Over the weekend, legendary head coach Chuck Noll died at the age of 82. Noll led the Steelers to four of their Super Bowl titles in a 22-year head coaching career.
"He was the leader of the Steelers family," Roethlisberger said. "What he did for the franchise is unparalleled. His success and legacy will always be remembered.
"We lost a great coach and a great man."
Roethlisberger spent most of the weekend lounging near a swimming pool celebrating Father's Day with his two children. He and his wife, Ashley, gave birth to a baby girl in March. Last year, they welcomed a son into the world.
"I'm a fairly new dad and it was a great day to spend with my kids," he said.

Research Interests
My research focuses on the natural history and treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) and hepatitis B virus (HBV), particularly in special populations, including those undergoing liver transplantation. Work in progress addresses the natural history of post-transplant disease and specific therapies to prevent infection or modify HCV and HBV disease progression and loss of grafts from recurrent disease. Our virological analyses are focused on characterization of viral mutations that occur in liver transplant recipients receiving antiviral therapies and assessment of the effect of these variant viruses on the natural history and severity of disease post-transplantation. Knowledge of these factors may allow improved organ allocation by identifying subsets of patients with HCV recurrence in liver grafts who would be favorable or unfavorable candidates for retransplantation.

You can press the home, or the house button, for wii remote settings, which also pause the game.
That turtle has a brief case. It must be going to work. I hope it has a good day.
Just depends on the game your playing.
For VC games, if you hit the Home button a screen will pop up with a choice for Operations Guide. That's your manual for that particular VC game. In there will show how the original buttons map to the Wii controllers for that game.

I first heard about the potential merger of the College of Charleston and the Medical University of South Carolina about a year ago from my parents, who live in Mount Pleasant. I never thought that it would be a possibility. No one will go for that, I thought.
But, a year later, the proposition is officially on the table.
The renaming and "merging" of these two radically different institutions is appalling. As a business move, it may make sense (read: the state wants another research university), but as a proud alum and someone who loves that city, it's incredibly disheartening.
The college is older than the United States of America. It is the 13th oldest higher learning institutions in the country. How many places get to say that? How many have that many years of history, of tradition, of survival?
The state representatives presenting this bill have dollar signs in their eyes, but are forgetting there is more to these schools than financial aspects. They claim this is only a name, it will help the economy of Charleston, be a more cohesive unit. There is so much more to the name. To call it just that is an insult that many alumni feel.
What other places have a campus where battles were fought, where white tux graduations are still held, where you stub your towed on original cobblestone sidewalks four times a week?
Can you find another campus with historical housing for undergrads, ghosts in houses, and the biggest amount of pride in a school with no football team?
That's what the name stands for. It stands for beauty and tradition and a school we will fight for. It stands for 250 years of honor, of tradition, of excellence, of positive change, of Southern gentility.
There is a way to create collaborative programs without forcing a merger. The College of Charleston and Clemson have graduate architectural programs. Clemson has a joint training program with the bioengineering and Ph.D. program at MUSC.
MUSC and the College of Charleston were built upon different ideals, goals, history, and passions - liberal arts and medicine. Forcing the combination would lose sight of their successes and hold back the progress of the schools for years to come while they attempt to align their goals.
The merger would force more uniqueness out of downtown. The cruise ships and growing, uncontrolled tourism have already hurt the quaintness of the city. This new "university" would take even more of that charm away.
There is a reason people love the city, and the continual changes to commercialize the city will hurt it in the end.
Our seal states, "This shrine cares for traditions."
You dare to take that away from us?

Music fests planned in Conneaut Lake, Sherman, N.Y.
If, like Mumford & Sons, you're a hopeless wanderer, this is the weekend for you. Two big music festivals roll in the region: Night Lights Fall Music Festival in Sherman, N.Y., and Rock to Rebuild the Conneaut Lake Beach Club.
Night Lights is unique; it takes place today and Saturday on the site of summer's Great Blue Heron Music Festival and includes an illuminated, mile-long trail with artwork ensconced along the way.
"We feel Night Lights being open just adds to the spectacle of the music festival," said Doug Sitler, who runs the weekly late-summer series.
"People can go see the music and walk the trails in between bands. We think Night Lights is a unique setting for a music festival. Not many areas can compete with what we're putting together."
The music fest takes a giant step forward from its first two years by featuring national acts.
"This is our home-run-shot year," said Scott Molloy, one of the festival's organizers; he also plays in Lazo Hollyfeld. "The first two were basically local and Buffalo bands. We try to one-up ourselves every year."
Marco Benevento, the Saturday night headliner, is a stellar keyboard player whose band includes bassist Dave Dreiwitz (Ween) and drummer Andy Borgar (Tom Waits).
"TigerFace," Benevento's latest CD, features guest spots from Phish's Mike Gordon and Pearl Jam's Matt Chamberlain. It showcases his textured, mostly instrumental compositions.
Night Lights also features bluesy, danceable rockers the Heavy Pets from Florida tonight; Relix magazine dubbed them "a living, breathing force of nature."
On Saturday, New York City-based progressive fusion band Schleigho plays. The group was an Erie staple at one point but seldom visits the region anymore.
"They weren't really gigging much, but we got them last year to come and play, and it rocked," Molloy said. "They had a great time. We had a great time. They were all about it. So we called them about coming back, and they said, 'Totally.'"
Popular regional bands Aqueous, Smackdab and Universe Shark are on the bill, along with the Manhattan Project, an electronic duo.
The event features two stages -- one next to the Cafe in the Woods, the other, the main one, beneath a 40-by-80 foot tent in the center of the campgrounds. The main stage used during July's Blue Heron will be a hang-out area with games and lounging.
"That's a matter of respect for the Heron," Molloy said. "It's something special the Heron uses that is their thing. We don't want to infringe on that."
A DJ will keep late-night dancers moving at the Heron fire-pit area that usually hosts a drum circle. Food vendors will offer chili, pizza, salads and sandwiches. Six crafts vendors will also be on site.
Weekend passes are $55 advance, $70 at the gate. Tonight only ($40) and Saturday only ($45) passes are also available. Visit www.nightlightsfest.com.
The Rock to Rebuild the Beach Club party features more than three dozen performers today through Sunday at two locations -- Conneaut Lake Park's lawn and Elizabeth's Restaurant.
Some area bands are taking part, including Chrome and Porcelain Bus Drivers (tonight); Sean Patrick and the New Grass Revolution, Huckin Fillbillys, Cerebral Plane and Mayflower Hill on Saturday; and Rick and the Roadhouse Rockers on Sunday.
Ohio-based Vicious Cycle, a tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd, closes Saturday's show at Conneaut Lake Park at 11 p.m.
Whether or not Beach Club, which was destroyed by fire during the summer, will be rebuilt is still up in the air.
The show's organizers say if that's not possible, the event's proceeds will be divided among four fire departments -- three in Conneaut Lake and one in Summit Township.
Tickets are $11 per day advance or $14 at the gate. Weekend passes are $31 advance, $34 at the gate. For details, visit the event's Facebook page under Rock to Rebuild Conneaut Beach Club.

Expired rental cars too common
Posted at 11:25:54 AM on August 20, 2010
Comments: 0 Read/Post Comments
Thursday's column about how Enterprise Rent-A-Car gave an Upper Macungie Township man a rental car that was illegal to drive brought back nasty memories for some Watchdog readers. Paul Renaut said the car he got had no emissions inspection sticker, and an expired registration sticker.
He said Enterprise told him not to worry about it, it would take care of any tickets he got. Maybe it will, maybe it won't. You have no way of knowing, so don't expose yourself unnecessarily. A few readers told me they'd been in similar situations, and gotten tickets because of the negligence of their rental companies.
"Read your column about the rental cars and just had to laugh," reader Ed of Harrisburg recounted. "My first-ever ticket resulted from driving a rental with an expired registration. And it happened on my birthday, too! The company did pay the fine, but ..."
"I had the same thing happen to me a few years back," reader Joe of Coopersburg recalled. "Following an accident with my own car, my insurance company arranged for a rental which was delivered to my house. The first time I drove it, I got only 2 blocks from my house when a cop pulled me over and cited me for driving an expired vehicle. Also, the fine goes to the driver of the vehicle, not the owner of the car. It took me weeks and too many phone calls to get the rental car company to give me the funds to pay for the fine, which they eventually did."
It's clear this is not an isolated issue. Next time you rent a car, make sure it has a valid registration and inspection. If the stickers are out of date, refuse the vehicle and demand another. If the rental place balks, threaten to call corporate.

Certain neoplastic lesions of mucous membranes have been shown to stain after topical application of toluidine blue dye. Richart1 first reported the use of toluidine blue dye as a vital stain for dysplasia and carcinoma of the uterine cervix. Since then Niebel and Chomet,2 Shedd et al,3,4 Iwano et al,5 and Strong et al6 have demonstrated its diagnostic value in lesions of the mouth and pharynx, while Collins et al7 studied staining of vulvar lesions. Squamous carcinomas, both invasive and in situ, and certain dysplastic lesions of these mucous membranes were stained a blue color by the dye. Staining also occurred in areas of ulceration. Subepidermal extensions of squamous cell carcinomas did not stain but satellite lesions in the mucosa were detected by stain.
Discovery of early primary or recurrent skin cancer is dependent on the arousal of clinical suspicion which leads to biopsy.

No Longer Just Dana Andrews' Kid Brother, Steve Forrest Is the New Sultan of 's.w.a.t.'
Then this February Forrest was, at 49, finally struck—or more precisely, S.W.A.T.-ed—by blue lightning. The acronym stands for Special Weapons and Tactics, a real-life L.A. police squad (PEOPLE, Nov. 25), but on the Monday-night ABC-TV idealization it might as well stand for Simplistic, Warlike and Totalitarian. As the flinty-faced Hondo Harrelson, Steve commands an elitist, five-macho, sharpshooter team which could take out Cher's belly button from 100 yards. That is, in effect, what it has done in the ratings. S. W.A. T. is far and away the favorite mid-season replacement on TV, and the beleaguered ABC network's only series to crack the top 10 all season. It has had equally dramatic impact for Forrest, who acknowledges, "I needed this success in my career."
"Steve's a very talented young fellow," says an unjealous Dana, now 66 and concentrating on stage appearances after his successful struggle against alcoholism. Forrest attributes their acting zeal to pulpit-envy of their dad, a Southern Baptist preacher who fathered 13 children and filled them with the fear of God. "The awe and respect and excitement he generated putting across his Biblical exhortations exhilarated me," Steve recalls. He will never forget one occasion in his youth when he chucked a pitcher of lemonade through a plate-glass window. "Well, the sheriff came up to me and he said, 'Billy Andrews, do you want me to turn you over to your father or take you to jail?' I told him take me to jail—anything but face my father." Dana likewise remembers, "Our father was very stern. Authority is something you need in this business, and Steve has it."
Steve understands S.W.A.T.'s appeal to an uptight TV audience. "People like us because we're in control of the situation," he explains. "You can say it's simpleminded or unfair, but we do solve problems. We don't raise questions we can't answer or that might disturb people." Despite its heavy artillery and overkill, Steve argues that the show features no "sheep-gut, blood-bag, exploding violence" and says that his own teenage kids love it. "For the first time in a long time the people they're admiring are the police," he observes, "not the killers."
For all his Hemingwayesque tough-talk on the air, Steve, an affable 6'3", is most at home bottling honey from his five beehives or reading up on archaeology with his wife, Christine, a college sweetheart from UCLA he married 26 years ago. "Temperamentally I wouldn't be qualified to be a S.W.A.T. leader," he admits. "Joy is easier for me to handle than pain. I'm a lover, not a killer."

To the Editor:
This is in response to the Sunday letter from Rosemarie Emmi.
We are not, as she seems to believe, ''living under communist law'' as Kruschev prophesied in the '60s. I grew up in the '60s and I remember it well. Russia has fallen, the United States is still going strong. If anything, our democracy is more alive and vibrant now than it's ever been, to the consternation of some who refuse to accept the outcome.
She states that those who voted Barack Obama back in office are ''that faction of our population who are uninformed and for the most part dependent on the government for their every need.'' I work full time at a job I love, as I have for most of my 60-some years except when I was home raising my children. I do not depend on the government for my every need, although I do appreciate the roads that I use to drive to work and the public parks that I have the good fortune to enjoy walking through with my grandchildren. I pay my taxes and I give to charity when I can. I have never been on Medicaid, which I'm assuming is what Emmi means, although I do intend to retire on the Social Security benefits that I've earned, as I'm sure she either does or will do as well.
Our youth have not been ''indoctrinated with socialism'' in our schools. I know many good and caring teachers who spend their own money to make sure our children get the best education that they can provide, even as money for education dries up. To accuse them of ''indoctrinating'' our children is obscene.
I do think and I do listen; I read newspapers, magazines, watch the news, listen to the radio and usually go online to check, usually to more than one source, what I see and hear from the media in an effort to get the whole truth. I try to keep informed. I care. And then I decide. That's what people do in a democracy.
To assume that those of us who do not agree with her political views are uninformed, dependent, indoctrinated or shallow is the height of hubris, and the antithesis of one of this country's greatest strengths - our freedom to think for ourselves and make the choices that seem right to us, because we do live in a free society and not ''under communist law.''
I suggest Emmi stock up on food, lock her door, turn off her TV and radio, and hibernate for the next four years so that she doesn't have to ''suffer'' with the rest of us.

Democracy includes the freedom to listen, think

How can something so 18th century almost always sound so new and exciting?
George Frideric Handels magnificent oratorio, Messiah, just doesnt get old. Perhaps its because of the preponderance of fabulous tunes. Perhaps its the suspenseful storyline. Perhaps its all that big choral singing.
The pieces dramatic thrust is mostly provided by the choir, its three parts and many segments neatly divided to accentuate the glorious human voice en masse.
There is something magical about the piece that makes it always fresh, said guest conductor Steven Fox, who will direct three performances by the Charleston Symphony Orchestra and Chorus this week. It has the classic attributes of a masterpiece: Each time you discover something new.
The Holy City Messiah programs feature soprano Margaret Kelly Cook, countertenor Ricard Bordas, tenor Oliver Mercer and bass-baritone John Brancy. Art Bumgardner, adjust voice teacher at the College of Charleston and a CSO Chorus regular, prepared the singers for the the big show.
Handel composed the piece in less than a month of furious, inspired scrawling. The first part is a long anticipation of Jesus birth, culminating with the chorus For Unto Us a Child is Born. The second part is about Jesus death and resurrection, and reaches its climax with the Hallelujah Chorus. And the final part is about the Last Judgment and the life hereafter.
Because the first two parts are seasonal, referring to Christmas and Easter, the work is most often performed at those holidays. But most of the big public presentations seem to happen around Christmas.
Audiences are content hearing the Hallelujah Chorus in the context of either Christs birth or his resurrection.
The voicing is superb, Fox said. Its challenging to sing, but also much fun, and this probably accounts for some of the excitement it inspires.
The fact that its fun for the performers brings out the joy of the text and the music, he said.
Rob Taylor, director of the CSO Chorus and director of choral activities at the College of Charleston, agreed, calling the score ingenious.
Handel knew how to write for the voice better than Bach, he said. Not that its easy to sing. Its far from easy. Just because you know the melisma of He Shall Purify doesnt mean its in your voice.
Taylor said that the works enduring appeal also can be attributed to good storytelling.
At end of day, the Messiah tells a story in a compelling way that everyone wants to hear. Its biblically based, fantastic music.
Fox is no stranger to choral music. He directs the Clarion Society, a baroque orchestra based in New York City and has specialized in early and Russian music. Both feature the voice prominently, whether in the form of European opera and oratorio or that big basso sound of a Russian chorus.
Handels Messiah, which hes conducted once before, is a work that thrills all involved, performer and listener alike, he said.
Its the kind of piece that brings people together.
Hansel & Gretel
While hes in town, Fox also will conduct five performances of Hansel & Gretel, a semi-staged, family-friendly version with music by Engelbert Humperdinck that stars soprano Elizabeth Hott as Gretel, mezzo-soprano Maria Elena Armijo as Hansel and mezzo-soprano Jennifer Luiken as the Witch.
The Charleston Symphony production, presented at the Dock Street Theatre, also features the Charleston Childrens Chorus, directed by Charles Benesh.

"Reading Between the Lines is thoroughly enjoyable and thoroughly literate—a magnificent blending of history, literature, and theology that will be welcomed by professionals and laity alike."
—Wayne Martindale, Professor of English, Wheaton College; author, Beyond the Shadowlands: C. S. Lewis on Heaven and Hell
"What a superb resource this is! It resonates with profound perceptions of how good literature works to enrich and illuminate us. Dr. Veith proves himself once again to be a knowledgeable guide through the landscape of the written word."
—Luci Shaw, author, God in the Dark and Polishing the Petoskey Stone
"Veith has written on important topics with his usual clarity, good sense, organizing ability, and comprehensiveness. The scope of this project is impressive."
—Leland Ryken, Emeritus Professor of English, Wheaton College
"Veith makes it clear that the joys of reading can be deep joys of the type which can enliven our souls. This book should raise significantly the cultural level of evangelicalism."
—Edward E. Ericson Jr., professor emeritus of English, Calvin College
