We practiced in the Thames River which was extremely cold. Our wet suits would crack and let moisture in. We tried a variety of things to help that including using dishwasher gloves with pocket warmer type chemicals in them that would heat up with moisture. We also tried using Swedish ski undergarments that were like a heavy fishing net. That would allow the water that got in to warm up by your body heat…but it just ended up moving the cold spots to other places.
I went behind enemy lines in France with the famous British Major Hasler. Hasler was the later the leader of the famous Operation Frankton. Major Hasler could speak quite a few languages and was very crafty. Armed with commando cloaks, OSS daggers, suppressed weapons, cameras, and L Pills in case of capture, we linked up with the French underground and were able to get a couple of downed pilots out. We used American money that the French farmers used to negotiate trade with the Germans.
We were being trained for a mission that was called Operation Betty. Four operatives of which I was one were to be dropped off in the Bay of Biscayne in Southern France. Our bombing raids could not dent the giant concrete reinforced pens that protected the German submarines there. We were to be dropped off by crash boats closed to shore. Using motorized surfboards of sorts called 'Water Lilies' and submersible motorized canoes called 'Sleeping Beauties'. We would navigate in under the German's radar. We would then swim in underwater using the LRU. Two swimmers would place mines on the locks while the other two would place them on the side of the German Subs. The mines would detonate blocking the gates and sinking the subs. We would swim to a safe house and link up with advancing forces at Normandy.
Armed with a water proof Boy Scout compass, magnetic explosives, dry suits, and LARU rebreathers, we practiced in water that was often colder than 50 degrees. Our training was at night and very intense. We were on the eve of the attack when our part was scuttled. Presumably because the magnets on the explosives messed with the compasses. I still think we could have saved quite a few lives with that operation.
On June 22, 1944, the L unit was disbanded and I was sent to the Bahamas to be the chief LARU instructor. But, I was still itching to get into the fight with the Germans or the Japs!.
So, somewhat distraught with being denied combat after all of the blood, sweat, and cold shivering hands and combat swimming mishaps….and my own service being so different than what was now being taught, I opted back into the fleet. I was sent to the USS Wadsworth DD 516 where I became the chief gunners mate.
The Wadsworth fought in the battle for Palau, Iwo Jima, and then on to Okinawa.
During the first day at Iwo Jima, I was in the forward turret providing cover fire for the newly formed UDT simmers who did a marvelous job under fire to clear beach heads Using those same fins and faceplates. I had a little inward chuckle wondering how that Kaufman fellow had finally been convinced of using them with his 'demolitioneers'.
In Okinawa, we were charged with shooting down 21 kamikazes and were given the Presidential citation. I was also given a commendation for that battle. During one day of that duty, on 28 April 1945, Wadsworth repelled six determined attacks by 12 enemy aircraft. The raids—which came from all points of the compass—commenced at sunset and continued for over three hours. We successfully evaded a torpedo plane who after missing us with it's torpedo decided to attempt to crash into our ship. It took out our front 40 millimeter gun and clipped our whale boat before crashing into the sea.
It was the second of two close calls. The first was six days prior when a kamikaze narrowly missed us to port. The crash of the plane sent a huge wave across our ship's deck. The wave was so huge that one sailor thought he had been swept overboard and began attempting frantically to swim back to the ship. When the wave subsided, we laughed as he swam the crawl …on the deck of the ship.
After VJ day, we remained in the area until September, when we assisted two LST who were bound for Nagasaki. We helped take on Allied prisoners of war from the atomic bombed devastated port.
I remained in the Navy until 1961 when I retired as a Master Chief Gunners mate. After the war, I kept in contact with Taylor and Lambertsen as life-long friends until they passed on.
My training and service during WW2 remained Top Secret until 1987 and it was not until 1988 that a Sergeant in the Army Special forces began looking into what we had done and contacted me. If it had not been for the curiosity of this young Army Sergeant, all of this would never have come to light. He also said that he wanted the world to know. So, in March of 1998, I and the others from the OSS Maritime Operational Swimmers were inducted as lifetime members of the Army Special Forces giving us all Green Berets. Soon after, the Navy Seals realized us to be the forerunners of their organization and awarded us the Seal Trident.
Of the original five, I am the only one left.
I am Master Chief John Spence, Office of Strategic Services - United States Navy and proud to be America's First Frogman.

An Australian Playroom Makes Goodmeryllevin
Last week I posted about the quintessential backyard tree swing, and heard from a mom all the way in Australia, who installed a swing for her four lucky kiddies—inside their playroom! She sent a link to photos of the room and I had to share because there are so many great playroom ideas tucked into this space.
I love that the room is divided into zones—a place for arts and crafts, a reading nook, a table for games, etc. It keeps things organized but also means multiple kids can easily share the space without interfering in each other's activities.
The art area, for starters, is genius. It has a big chalkboard at kit height, a cable system for displaying recently finished works, and wall-mounted cabinets at parent height so that supplies actually stay neat and organized. It's easy for Lauren (the mom) to pull out a few crafting materials at a time (which she stores in clear stacking bins), rather than letting the tots ransack the cabinet.
Lauren also created the toy storage boxes with cushioned tops that double as extra seating for playdates. Find the how-to instructions here. She used pre-fab kitchen cabinets, the kind you can find at big box home stores, so she didn't have to build the boxes. Brilliant.
There are a lot more great ideas for storage and play and space-saving tricks, so click through to her blog and read more!

Task Force Fights for Healthy Pregnancies and Babies
Nearly every drug that a mother takes during pregnancy passes through the placenta to her unborn baby. If the drug causes addiction and dependence for the mother, it will negatively impact the baby, as well.
In recent years, Lee Memorial Health System has seen a sharp increase in the number of babies born exposed to drugs who demonstrate symptoms of dependency.
Known in the medical community as neonatal abstinence syndrome, or NAS, babies exposed to and dependent on drugs experience a range of withdrawal signs and symptoms shortly after birth, including:
- Dehydration
- Diarrhea
- Fever
- High-pitched crying
- Inability to sleep or eat normally
- Irritability
Babies diagnosed with NAS often are inconsolable, and require specific treatment in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Golisano Children s Hospital of Southwest Florida.
The appropriate care is available, but physicians and community leaders want to do more to prevent and decrease the incidence of NAS. A task force was created in 2011 to determine strategies and solutions, and to address the problem.
We will continue to fight against NAS, explains William Liu, M.D., neonatologist and medical director of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Golisano Children s Hospital of Southwest Florida. Whether it is increased education in the primary care physician s office or family planning at drug treatment centers, our task force will continue to develop tactics to educate the community and make mothers more accountable for their babies.
Since the inception of the task force, and in the last year, the incidence of NAS has leveled off. It is exciting to see that change may be occurring, says Michelle Waddell, RNC-NIC, Lee Memorial Health System director of neonatal services. The task force will continue to meet regularly to come up with ways to address this problem. We will provide the education and tools necessary to fight the incidence of NAS.
Becoming a mother is an exciting journey. Talk to your doctor about any drugs or medications you take before you become pregnant or as soon as possible after you find out you are pregnant so you can be sure that you and your baby will have the healthiest future possible.

for the 2007–08 academic year
Deadline for Submission: 15 June 2007
We are pleased to announce the formation of the new Newberry Seminar on Women and Gender, to begin in the fall of 2007. The seminar is intended to bring together scholars from a variety of historical fields to share their works in progress. We envision that it will explore diverse topics and genres—such as race, biography, war, religion, and sexuality—through the prisms of women and/or gender. Our focus will be on the United States and North America across all time periods; however, we welcome papers on non-American aspects of the history of women and gender. Ideally our meetings will stimulate wide-ranging discussions applicable for use in classrooms and professional forums.
The seminar will be open to graduate students, independent scholars, and faculty. To maximize time for discussion, papers will be circulated electronically in advance. Priority will be given to individuals who are at a stage in their research at which they can best profit from discussion, and to individuals who need a venue to present their work. The seminar will meet on selected Fridays during the academic year, 3:00-5:00 PM, at the Newberry Library in Chicago.To propose a paper, please send a one-page proposal, a statement explaining the relationship of the paper to your other work, and a brief c.v. to Diane Dillon, Assistant Director, Dr. William M. Scholl Center for Family and Community History, The Newberry Library, 60 W. Walton Street; Chicago, IL, 60610. Please send all materials as electronic attachments via email to email@example.com.
If you are interested in presenting and have questions, please contact one of the seminar coordinators, Francesca Morgan (Northeastern Illinois University; firstname.lastname@example.com; (773) 442-5609) or Joan Marie Johnson (Northeastern Illinois University; firstname.lastname@example.com, (773) 442-5628).
The Newberry Library is unable to provide funds for travel or lodging, but can provide assistance in locating discounted accommodations.

Religious Right Self-Victimization In Full Force At Values Voter Summit: Fear Of Christian Concentration Camps, Bishops In Jail
After enjoying Glenn Beck's speech about supposed anti-Christian persecution by the Nazis, participants at the Family Research Council's Values Voter Summit attended breakout sessions focusing on how Christians in the U.S. are facing repression under President Obama.
In a breakout session entitled "Standing Up To the Assaults On Our Faith," Joseph Farah of WorldNetDaily alleged that the Obama administration's supposed persecution of Christians is so bad that it is proof we have entered the Tribulation, a key period in the End Times. Farah cited Pope Benedict's remarks "seemingly embracing homosexuality [and] seemingly embracing universalism" as further evidence of imminent doom.
Political efforts to curb the arrival of the Last Days are so few and far between, Farah said, that Christians can only rely on prayer. He urged attendees to "harness spiritual weapons that give us the real power." Specifically, Farah called on people to join his 9/11 prayer initiative, which he hopes will guide their spiritual struggle.
Janet Porter [née Folger] also warned that the End Times are upon us, for which she naturally blamed gay people. She repeated her claim that gay marriage was responsible for Noah's flood and announced a new project with Liberty University's Judith Reisman to sue schools that "corrupt minors" with LGBT-inclusive curricula.
Vision America's Rick Scarborough agreed with their dire assessments, saying that "infidels" now pull the strings of government. According to Scarborough, the Obama administration is "hell-bent on silencing the Gospel of Jesus Christ." Christian unity, Scarborough feared, "is not going to happen until a bunch of us are thrown into concentration camps."
He also concurred with Porter's anti-gay rhetoric, telling the audience: "You are not born gay, you are recruited."
The speakers on a later panel, "Where Do We Go From Here? Challenging Tyranny," were just as pessimistic.
One person in attendance asked a question about the purported takeover of the legal system by "militant homosexual leftists" while another questioner, who said she was from Nigeria, claimed that the Obama administration is even worse than Nigeria's former military dictatorship.
Kenneth Blackwell, the former Ohio secretary of state now with the Family Research Council, alleged that President Obama, through his supposed abuses of executive power, is giving cover to dictators who hope to undermine the rule of law. He described the President's actions as a "disservice to humanity."
Alabama attorney general Luther Strange charged the Obama administration with leading a "direct assault" on religious freedom and claimed that state anti-discrimination laws are inconsistent with the "fundamental fabric of the Constitution."
Dean Clancy of Freedom Works lamented that the Supreme Court issued "tyrannical" decisions in Roe v. Wade, Lawrence v. Texas and US v. Windsor, accusing the Justices of "imposing [their] radical worldview" on America. To push back against the "tyrants" in "black robes," he urged conservative activists to push for constitutional amendments to return power to the states.
Both Clancy and co-panelist Terry Jeffrey of CNSNews said that civil disobedience against the Obama administration is on its way.
Jeffrey predicted the imprisonment of Roman Catholic bishops, followed by the laity, under Obama, whom he called an "enemy of our freedom."
He concluded: "We ought not surrender our souls to Barack Obama."

Recently, Canadian and US investigators have reported new uses for radioactive macroaggregates in scanning.
This technique of injecting minute particles of human albumin into the peripheral circulation prior to scanning has proved successful in the past in detecting various lung lesions.
Henry N. Wagner, MD, one of the original investigators in the field, now reports the method useful in examination of patients with arteriosclerosis. He and co-workers at Johns Hopkins University suggest that it also may be practical for studying the peripheral circulation, regional blood flow in syncope, shock, hypertension, clubbing, and Raynaud's disease.
In a separate report, Leonard Rosenthal, MD, Montreal General Hospital, said the technique appears to be safe and effective for brain scanning and detecting arteriovenous shunts because injected quantities are small and because the grape-like clusters of particles collected in the capillaries are metabolized quickly.
Dr. Rosenthal said that no deleterious effects were observed when aggregates

Siri burned by The Simpsons
0. phoneArena 04 Nov 2013, 10:19 posted on
Siri has always been polarizing app. Some find the service to be legitimately helpful and use it regularly to perform various tasks; others have nothing but trouble in getting Siri to understand basic commands or return relevant information; and, there are reports that suggest that most users flat out ignore Siri's existence all together. It looks like The Simpsons falls into that second category...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

It looks like today everyone is just laughing from Apple and Apple users. Soon will be shame to take iPhone from your pocket in the street, because people around may start to laugh at you. :D
7. rawbow (Posts: 428; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
comment 6. And if everybody(including you) is laughing at Apple products and Apple, um..doesn't that make you a shweep too??
9. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
No it doesn't. :)
29. rawbow (Posts: 428; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
glad that you see the point
33. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
You have made a statement without a rational point and then you asked the question:
"doesn't that make you a shweep too??"
To which I have answered:
"No it doesn't"
And my answer was such because I don't see rational point in your statement that's why it doesn't. ;)
39. rawbow (Posts: 428; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
sigh, stuck up much eh? still at least you got the point
11. Commentator (Posts: 3692; Member since: 16 Aug 2011)
Dollars to donuts that the majority of the Simpsons writing-staff is carrying iPhones.

Siri does like to do that though....

Not sure what your getting at. You don't have to do any of that at all. You can wake the device up via the home button (don't have to use the power button), while your finger is still on the home button just long press it to bring Siri up. From Siri you can either tell it to open the calculator, or you can just ask it what the answer is to a math question.
37. mturby (unregistered)
well, i meant android assitant apps. but still, u have to wake up the stupid phone before u can use the assistant, hey, that is NOT an assistant, is just another cheap feature regarless is on android or iphone..

This isn't the first time the Simpsons had some laughs at Apple. First was the Newton: Beat up Martin becomes Eat Up Martha.
Then the Mapple store and Steve Mobs... which is weird because now they're using Apple instead of Mapple yet kept the double bite marks on the logo.

If Simpsons makes fun of your product, you are made. It's an honor to be pawned by homer :)
13. Commentator (Posts: 3692; Member since: 16 Aug 2011)
Except for that the Simpsons hasn't been relevant or funny in 15 years. Also, the Simpsons has been making fun of Apple (or their painfully-unfunny and uncreatively-named version "Mapple") for years.
But then again, what right do I have to complain? They've given me thousands of hours of entertainment for free. If anything I owe them.
23. downphoenix (Posts: 3165; Member since: 19 Jun 2010)
I watched that episode last night, it actually was decently funny. Funnier than Family Guy's been for the last 5 years anyway.
26. Commentator (Posts: 3692; Member since: 16 Aug 2011)
To be fair, being funnier than Family Guy isn't much of a compliment.
I stopped watching at "Lisa Goes Gaga." It seems like their entire reason for existence these days is to cram as many guest stars and obvious cultural references (that are 6 months out of date by air-time) as possible into every episode.
35. downphoenix (Posts: 3165; Member since: 19 Jun 2010)
true, both shows IMO pale in comparison to shows like South Park and Futurama. RIP Futurama, you were a consistently strong show, and South Park is the model of envy IMO when it comes to intelligent and topical animated shows yet manages to be raw and crude at the same time, its my favorite show and IMO recent years have been even better than in the past.

Homer pawned Siri? How much did he get for it?

It was all about apple hate on animation domination last night lol

Funny how every negative Apple article has a damage control paragraph that spins the negative into a positive. I don't see this for any other company....
Do the sheep request that they be the ones to review the products or they leave or something? For example, john v or Michael h, the two biggest Apple homers review like every Apple product while ray s who obviously doesn't like sony reviews every sony product.
Now is this Apple being great PR tacticians saying only john v and Michael h can report on our products or we will stop sending you free apple products to review or is it john v and Michael h trying really hard to get all the Apple jobs so they can be biased and make Apple look good?
The Verge is even worst at this but that is another story.
15. Commentator (Posts: 3692; Member since: 16 Aug 2011)
Funny how Apple being made fun of by a show that makes fun of everything is considered a negative Apple article.
16. mturby (unregistered)
there is not even one app that works the way they are supposed to work (or the way they tell u it works). siri, assistant, eva, google now/search, not even one. they are all stupid and give u answers to questions u did not even asked! plus, u have to wake up the phone before u can actually say something, wich makes them more stupid. maybe moto x works a little bit less stupid, a little bit less. IF U HAVE TO PRESS THE POWER BUTTON, UNLOCK THE PHONE, AND SEARCH FOR THE ASSITANT APP TO ASK HER TO OPEN THE CALCULATOR, IT MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL.
18. jbats (Posts: 7; Member since: 30 Oct 2013)
i kind of liked the family guy skit better. the best part was when adam west returns his computer cuz the apple logo already has a bite taken out of it.
19. good2great (Posts: 1042; Member since: 22 Feb 2012)
family guy, south park and the simpsons have done a great job clowning apple...lol
its only funny when the company is iconic... it woulda been boring doing an android joke.
Like the writer said, if Google can unify its devices to be iconic then we should see some very funny mentions soon.

Objective. We evaluated the performance of the Papanicolaou smear in screening and diagnostic settings.
Study Design. We analyzed Papanicolaou smear results of 1,850 women recruited into a clinical trial to evaluate an emerging technology for the detection of cervical cancer. Screening and diagnosis groups were based on the history of previous Papanicolaou smear results. We calculated sensitivities, specificities, positive and negative likelihood ratios (LR+ and LR−), receiver operating characteristic curves, and areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC).
Results. In the screening group, by defining disease as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 2,3/cancer or worse and using high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) as the test cutpoint, the AUC was 0.689, and the LR+ and LR− were 39.25 and 0.67, respectively. In the diagnosis group, the AUC was 0.764, and the LR+ and LR− were 3.79 and 0.56, respectively. By defining disease as human papillomavirus/CIN 1 or worse and HSIL as the test cutpoint, the AUC was 0.586, and the LR+ and LR− were 17.01 and 0.92 in the screening group; in the diagnosis group, the AUC was 0.686, and the LR+ and LR− were 2.77 and 0.75, respectively.
Conclusions. In a screening setting, a Papanicolaou smear result of HSIL or worse is 39 times more likely in a patient with CIN 2,3/cancer than in a patient without it. This compares to 4 times more likely in the diagnostic setting. The magnitude of the positive likelihood ratio observed in the screening group indicated that abnormal Papanicolaou smear results obtained in the screening setting should have more impact on clinical decision making than those from results obtained in the diagnostic setting.

Registration fees help us put on a great race, but fundraising is the best way to support the kids of St. Jude.

Why fundraise as a St. Jude Hero?
- Registration fees offset the cost of the race, but funds raised by St. Jude Heroes support the hospital.
- The St. Jude Memphis Marathon Weekend is the single largest one-day fundraising event for St. Jude.
- We're one of the few marathons in the world owned and operated by a charity.
The fundraising efforts of St. Jude Heroes help ensure no family ever receives a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food — because all a family should worry about is helping their child live. Learn how your race can mean more when you fundraise.

EDINBURG - Robert Pulido, local Tejano singing sensation, is sponsoring a scholarship fundraising concert at 7 p.m. on May 11 at the Edinburg City Auditorium. Pulido has dedicated one concert per year to raise scholarship funds for music students attending The University of Texas-Pan American.
The scholarship fundraising concert will feature Bobby Pulido, Little Joe, and David Lee Garza.
According to Dahlia Guerra, chair for the UTPA Music Department, election of the scholarship recipients is based on musical qualifications as well as financial need.
Robert Pulido is a 1973 graduate of the UTPA Music Department. After teaching at PSJA High School for a short time, he established "Roberto Pulido y Los Clasicos."
Pulido won his first Tejano Music Award for male vocalist in 1980, and has remained very popular today. In the 1990's, Pulido continued producing albums and continued to maintain a strong popularity as "El Primo."
Pulido has been described in the Billboard Guide to Tejano and Regional Mexican Music, as a pioneer who bridged the gap between the Conjunto and Tejano musical camps in the mid 1970's.
For more information on tickets or the concert, contact Guerra at 956/381-3471. ###

Home sought for Bergen sculpture collection
For the past five years, some of the world's most talented sculptors have created monumental works of art in Morton Burke's backyard.
His annual Bergen Rocks Sculpture Symposium has seen larger-than-life sculptures carved out of granite and marble, creating a sculpture garden behind his home in Bergen, a few kilometres south of Sundre.
In 2011, the venue was switched to Red Deer College and artists from China, Mongolia, Korea, Turkey and Italy showcased their talent.
Burke took a year off from the show last year, but has also made it known he'd like to find a permanent home for the sculptures. He would like it to be in Sundre, although he is also putting word out to other communities.
Town economic development officer Linda Wallace sees the merits of having such a unique collection listed among the community's attractions.
"We're taking a look at whether there's a way to get them," said Wallace on Monday.
"We certainly don't have the money so we're going to be looking into whether there's something through Alberta Arts and Culture or anything along that line."
There are 19 large-scale sculptures in Burke's collection worth tens of thousands of dollars apiece.
Council passed a motion last month directing administration to look into the feasibility of acquiring the collection to create a tourist attraction.
"There's a whole market out there that does recognize the value of what's there," she said, adding that the sculptors are internationally recognized artists.
"It's a treasure, there's no doubt about that."
It would be a nice surprise for visitors to come across the sculptures in a setting like Sundre, she said.
"It just adds to the whole cache of having it here, to come upon it unexpectedly."
Wallace said she'll likely report back to council in the spring.

I'm not quite sure how Oscar found us, but we think he was dropped off in our neighbor hood. He hates being outside so he wouldn't have wondered off without someone making him go outside. We were taking the trash out one night and he just walked right up and started rubbing on our legs. The humane Society was full when I called and they were going to kill him after a couple days if no one adopted him so we kept him. Now we love him so much and we can't imagine our lives without him, even though he has cost us a fortune!!!

ANTES FORT - The roar of motorcycle engines echoed through downtown Jersey Shore on Sunday shortly after noon.
The procession of 217 bikers rode across the Green Bridge that spans the West Branch of the Susquehanna River, connecting Jersey Shore with the Nippenose Valley, then turned left onto Main Street, on their way to a picnic barbeque in Lock Haven.
Before the ride began the riders were part of the sixth annual "Blessing of the Bikes," held during morning services at Crossroads Community Church. The church is located at 1454 South State Route Highway 44, just a mile and a half from the borough.
Lead Pastor John Phillips administered the prayer at the end of Sunday's worship services.
"Bless our motorcycles this summer. Anybody who's on their bike this summer, I pray Father that they would be part of a special covering of your protection ... May their journey begin and end safely Lord Jesus," Phillips said.
This year's prayer service broke the previous record for bikes and attendance with 217 bikes on hand and a record number of 1,199 people attending the event.
"I hope they take away a confidence that God is going to be with them this year and that he really cares about their motorcycles ... their safety and their riding season," Phillips said.
Randy Wandell, of Lock Haven, is a member of the church and was the lead rider for the parade that followed the blessing. He has been riding motorcycles for 36 years and has been involved for all six "blessing" events.
"It's a chance to show the community that church is more than just attending on Sundays. It's outreach, it's caring about the community," said Wandell.
This is the first year the "blessing" has taken place in the new home of Crossroads Community Church. The congregation moved into the new church last fall after worshipping at the Jersey Shore YMCA for several years.
Jack and Richelle Pierce, of Nippenose Valley attended for the first time this year.
"It gives you good peace of mind, makes you feel blessed knowing God is with you when you're riding," said Jack. "I think it's awesome ... to pray over us and our bike," said Richelle.
Stacy Mincer, of Mill Hall rode his 2001, Harley Davidson "Fat Boy" to church this Sunday. "It was something different for me. A friend suggested I come today. I liked it, it was interesting," said Mincer.
The children were not left out of the blessings. Upstairs in the children's section of the church, Pastor, Jamie Bailey held a "Blessing of the Bicycles," during the Crossroads Kid's Club, held every Sunday for elementary age students.
Pastor Phillips said he is looking forward to next year when he hopes the church can break another attendance record.
"It's always the biggest attendance Sunday of the year ... bigger than the grand opening of the new location and even bigger than Easter," said Phillips.

"He had been gassy for weeks and then he started throwing up," Aiken, 29, tells PEOPLE in its latest issue. "Jaymes [Foster, the baby's mother] and I were trying to be calm, rational parents, so we didn't call the doctors too much, but it just got to a point where he was vomiting everything. He was starting to get dehydrated."
Parker was soon admitted to a nearby hospital and diagnosed with pyloric stenosis, a condition that prompted doctors to decide he needed surgery the following day.
It was in the early hours of the morning, shortly before Parker was scheduled for the surgery at a nearby hospital, that Aiken, who was at his home in North Carolina, "got really panicky," he tells PEOPLE.
So the singer headed to the hospital around 2 a.m. – after second-guessing his impending visit.
Wanted to Know Everything"I was a little worried, like 'I don't think they're going to let me in the hospital at 2 or3 in the morning.' Then I thought, 'Wait a second, I'm the father! Of course they'll let me in," Aiken says. "It was the first moment when I thought, 'I'm actually this child's father!' "
Aiken came armed with a series of questions for the doctors. "I don't like to nag people, but I asked every question I could think of, and I thought of some more and called them back. I wanted to know everything," he says.
"I was like, wait a second, this is my responsibility, I need to take care of this child, and he can't ask questions for himself. It was a reality check, like this is the real deal."
As for Parker now, a beaming Aiken says, "He's fine, healthy and doing well!"
For the complete story on Aiken's new role as father, pick up the latest issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands now

You might be gaining weight - BUT - what kind of weight? How do your clothes fit? Muscle is much denser than fat, so the same weight occupies less volume as you lose fat and gain muscle.
Above all, how do you feel? That's much more important than the scale.

I think it comes down to two choices -
1) He *IS* being paid. He often accuses others of being paid (by Microsoft
of course) but that's probably a diversionary tactic. It's like all those
'family value' republicans who get busted in the mens room or for groping
male interns. Given how he is always linking to and pimping his personal and
'boycottnovell' web-sites for hits he seems to have no problem with running
paid adds to make a few bucks for himself. So if he is paid and continually
accuses others of being paid that makes him a hypocrite.
2) He is *NOT* being paid and is the biggest loser in the history of
mankind. Someone would have to be one pathetic moron to spend his entire
life, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year posting this nonsense
here for a handful of other COLA nuts to froth over. Just the thousands and
thousands of posts made here is enough to consider Roy Schestowitz to be a
mental patient. Combine these thousands of posts with the thousands of posts
to Digg, his two (known) websites and everything else and psychiatrists
would be drooling to do a case study on this lunatic.
So he's either a total loser in every meaninful sense of the term or he's a
hypocrite. In either case it sure is sad when you see people like this. It's
like the homeless bums you see sleeping in the alleys by Wrigley Field. You
feel sorry for them but you also know there's nothing you can do to help the
mentally ill.

The Priestessby Elliot Mabeuse
To become a priestess to Astarte, the goddess of love and war, was to embody the goddess's urgent sexual hunger and the ecstasy of her fulfillment. As Tia stood before Astarte's statue, she knew this was her destiny. She felt transformed--no longer a timid young girl, but a woman, bold and willful, filled with passion and knowledge beyond her years. She'd been chosen by Prince Nekhet, 4th son to the Pharoah, for a night of love. And as the spirit of Astarte moved through her, her sensuality bloomed, and she became shameless, voracious. . . and irresistible, as she transported herself and the prince to unimagined heights of pleasure.

Telephone calls are one of the primary means of inmates maintaining connections with family and loved ones during incarceration; maintaining these connections positively influences behavior in prison and the likelihood an offender will succeed upon release from prison. Directly aligned with the agency mission of reducing recidivism, the current contract with Global Tel Link (GTL) was renegotiated to drastically reduce telephone rates to five cents per minute, plus all applicable government mandated taxes and Federal Universal Service Fund fees for all calls within the United States, with no surcharge or connection fee. The new rate will be effective April 1, 2015. In addition to the reduced phone rates, the following will occur:
If you have a friend or family member in prison who would like to have telephone contact with you, the first telephone contact you will receive will be an AUTOMATED CALL from Global Tel Link, the provider of our inmate phone services. This call will ask your permission to add your phone number to the inmate's CALL ALLOW LIST. This AUTOMATED SYSTEM will call your phone number 3 times a day for 5 days until it receives a YES or NO response. Once you have answered yes to this call, any subsequent call attempts will be allowed to go to your number, unless there is a billing problem with your number.
Inmate telephone service is provided through Global Tel*Link (GTL). For questions or assistance regarding the telephone system or services, please contact the GTL Customer Call Center at 1-877-650-4249 during the following hours:
Inmates may make telephone calls ONLY to those individuals on the inmate's approved telephone calling list who have agreed to accept the inmate's calls while incarcerated. Inmate telephone calls may be paid for through one of the following three options:
All offenders are now able to directly pay for the telephone calls they make, using a Pin Debit telephone account. Funds may be deposited into an offender's Pin Debit phone account through the following means:
If you have received a telephone call
from an Ohio prison and wish to restrict
further calls

Britain's new 50 percent tax rate is apparently not bringing in the extra funds the government expected. In fact, it's bringing in less money.
High-level sources at the British treasury told the London Telegraph it appears well-to-do Brits have been finding ways to avoid the higher tax rate.
Supporters had been hoping the early numbers would show that higher taxes were bringing in more money.
Instead, it may increase political pressure to get rid of the new tax rate. Some fear businesses are leaving Britain to avoid it.
