- Seeking Solutions to Senior Hunger
Senior hunger and food insecurity are big problems nationwide and in our community. In Ohio, five percent of senior citizens are at risk of going hungry. More than 250,000 elderly Ohioans receive emergency food assistance. The risk of hunger is expected to grow 50 percent by 2015, while funding for food banks, senior programs and meal delivery is being slashed.
The effort is comprised of a comprehensive public information campaign through TV, radio, print and the web, three live Town Hall television programs on WGTE TV; and community events.

The AFC South is a fascinating division. It hosts two of the leagues best defenses, and perhaps the most unstable quarterback situations in football. All four teams are facing major questions marks. Whoever answers their quarterback problems first and best could be in prime position to dominate the division for years.
For a long time, Colts fans barely had to worry about the rest of the AFC South, but now more than ever they need to stay up and informed on the other teams. The time of Indianapolis chalking up 12 wins and letting the rest of the South scramble for a Wild Card slot are over. When the Colts return to prominence, they'll be competing against three other franchises that have done their part to become competitive.
This preamble is my way of announcing my new job.
I've been hired to be the AFC South Correspondent for Bleacher Report. I'll be covering the division "Kuharsky-style" beginning March 15. The new site will have an easy to remember URL: BleacherReport.com/afcsouthblog.
Bleacher Report has gone out of its way to hire some of the best writers around and has dramatically bolstered their stock of professional writers. For those who have been missing my daily missives, pine no more. I'll be posting many times each day about all four teams in the South. My goal will be spread the gospel of smart football to fans of the Titans, Jags, Texans and Colts. I'll be focusing on news and analysis as I try not only to please the fans of each team, but fans of the other teams looking for someone to give them the inside scoop on the rest of the division.
I'll be doing pieces like "The Advanced Stat of the Week", where each day I apply an advanced metric to one of the teams, explaining how an understanding of it can help you do better analysis of the team. The AFC South Blog will be a place for news, but with the same kind of higher level analysis you've been getting from 18to88.com and ColtsAuthority.com for the past 5 years.
Obviously, writing impartially about the South is very different than what I do here at Colts Authority. I don't believe there is anyone who writes 'without bias'. You all know my biases well. I believe that in journalism, announced biases are the way to go. I always seek to tell the truth, and I think fans of the other teams will come to realize that being fair-minded is my highest value as a writer.
Still, there are plenty of things that I can only say to Colts fans. Articles like the one I wrote this week, are obviously out of place in a division blog. I will always need a place to speak directly to Colts fans in an unfiltered way. My writing schedule at Colts Authority will not change. You'll still be able to find me here twice a week. You'll still get my post-game column on Monday. Eyes in the Backfield will live here on Colts Authority, though possibly as a radio show (Brett and I will keep you posted).
As a co-founder of ColtsAuthority.com, I'm invested emotionally and financially in the success of this site. Writing professionally for Bleacher Report is an incredible opportunity, and one that I think will benefit you, the reader.
Thanks for all your support for this site, and for me personally. You've made this step possible by showing up every day for a long time. I hope to repay you with all the fresh content you can handle.
See you there in two weeks!

Library Renovation
Facilities Planning & Construction: Wilson Clark Memorial Library Renovation
The renovation of the Wilson Clark Memorial Library began in May 2012. The design includes a dramatic change of the entrance at the main quad. There is the addition of a stair tower that goes from basement to roof. All volumes will be in the basement in compact shelving which will increase the amount of usable square footage. The University is aiming for LEED silver including the use of energy efficient lighting and mechanical. There will be added natural lighting throughout with skylights and other openings. A new elevator will be installed and the roof will be white to reflect heat. Reuse of recycled materials including 800 yards of crushed concrete from the River Campus buildings add to the sustainability of the remodel. When the Library is complete on July 15, 2013, two floors will open 24 hours a day.

AUBURN, Alabama -- Auburn has hired Georgetown's Terri Williams-Flournoy as its next women's basketball coach, the university announced today.
Williams-Flournoy, 43, has spent the last eight seasons at Georgetown. She replaces Nell Fortner, who retired last month after eight years at Auburn.
Williams-Flournoy was previously an assistant at Southwest Missouri State and Georgia.
"I am extremely excited for the opportunity to lead the women's basketball program at Auburn," Williams-Flournoy said in an Auburn release. "I'm very appreciative to President Jay Gogue, Jay Jacobs and Meredith Jenkins for giving me the chance to guide this team and I am looking forward to joining the Auburn family."
Williams-Flournoy has led the Hoyas to three consecutive NCAA tournament appearances, including a 23-9 and second round finish in 2012. Her overall record is 143-104.
At Georgia, she was recruiting coordinator on six consecutive NCAA tournament teams. The Bulldogs also won SEC titles in 1997 and 2000.
"She has an understanding of what it takes to be successful in the Southeastern Conference and brings a tremendous desire to win championships at Auburn," Jacobs said.
Williams-Flournoy is a 1991 graduate of Penn State. She and her husband Eric have an 11-year-old daughter, Maya, and an 8-year-old son, Eric Jr.
Auburn will hold a press conference to formally introduce Williams-Flournoy on Tuesday afternoon.

This week, my colleagues and I are doing what might be called extreme multi-tasking. We are getting ready to bring you the New York Catholic Bible Summit this coming Saturday. Among other things, that means filling close to 500 souvenir bags with relevant materials.
We also are packing up to move our offices to a new floor in the Catholic Center. The Archdiocesan Catechetical Office has been at its present site for at least 30 years. Can you imagine how much we have accumulated, how much has to be discarded, and how much has to be packed? Of course, the day-to-day ministry of our office continues at the same time. I mention this in case somebody at the Bible Summit opens a souvenir bag and finds a shoe or an old office directory.
Our times demand multi-tasking. Should they? Will the world come to an end if we don't drop what we are doing and respond instantly to the beeps from our mobile devices? It's hard to resist at work, at home or in transit (hopefully not the car) because others expect instant answers.
However, multi-tasking is not what it's cracked up to be. It doesn't make us more proficient. In fact, it slows us. The time it takes for us to switch ourselves mentally and physically from one to task to another is time lost. Multi-tasking doesn't do wonders for our concentration either. And it takes a toll on our relationships. Read at this article from Santa Clara University, which is "the Jesuit University in Silicon Valley." The author suggests as an antidote a 20-minute rule. Concentrate on one task for 20 minutes without interruption.
Now it may not be possible entirely to eliminate multi-tasking at work. However, there are other possibilities. These include prayer. Daily Mass is a perfect way to follow the 20-minute rule. Take your Bible (not the digital version) to a place away from your desk and meditate on one phrase or short passage. Or go out at lunchtime to some nearby green space, look around you, and then read this wonderful poem by Gerard Manley Hopkins, SJ. I promise you that any of these activities will provide a wonderful antidote to multi-tasking and it will enrich your faith, too. Just remember to switch off the device.

For years now, I've known Vikings right tackle Phil Loadholt in two ways … First, I'm pretty sure he eats people, and two, he's always getting flags pulled on him for false starts and holdings. This is why they probably don't let fans make personnel decisions, though.
Aside from being large enough to hide children in his sweatshirt pockets, Phil Loadholt has always seemed like one of those players that sports fans have on their team that it seems everyone else ends up overrating. You know, the guys that we end up watching all season long and know they aren't actually that good because we see all their drops and blown coverages to go with their amazing one handed catches and passes defended. It's always felt like that with Big Phil. He'll stand out like a blow job not on your birthday when he gets a holding call or a false start called against him, but the rest of the time?
Well, the rest of the time he's apparently doing pretty damn good.
As part of their free agency features, Grantland has highlighted Big Phil as one of the Vikings free agents to keep an eye on this off-season. According to their "research" (which probably includes drinking Samuel Adams and swearing about the Yankees):
|When he was coming out of Oklahoma in 2009, the book on Loadholt was that although he might struggle in pass protection, his 6-foot-8, 350-pound frame made him an ideal fit as a road-grading right tackle. Since the Vikings took him in the second half of the second round, the latter has proven to be true while the former hasn't been as much of a concern as originally thought. Pro Football Focus graded Loadholt as the 20th-best pass-blocking tackle in football, and according to Football Outsiders, Minnesota was fifth in PFF's adjusted line yards metric on runs over right tackle (their best among the five designated run locations). Among its best available free-agent tackles, Pro Football Focus has Loadholt fifth.
Take a second to digest what you just read. Take two, in fact, because there is some weird, scary shit in that paragraph. Let us break it down for you:
– Phil Loadholt is only listed as 350 pounds. HAHA! YEAH RIGHT! Maybe when standing on one leg! Wait …
– Loadholt was graded as the 20th best PASS BLOCKING TACKLE in football last year. Pass blocking. Tackle. Not just right tackle. ANY tackle. LOLWUT
– In 2012, the Vikings most successful running play? Let Adrian Peterson go HAM. But to where? To the right side, where Loadholt was blocking. Is any of this making any sense?
Listen, I think it's safe to admit Loadholt was noticeably better in 2012 if for no other reason that he was hardly noticeable. You never want to notice your offensive linemen, because that usually means they are being busted for something. But for this guy to come from where he was, where every fan know him to be, and receive these type of (semi) objective accolades? Hey, uh, he might be pretty good. Which is kind of a mind banger right now.
The real kicker is that he's an unrestricted free agent who will hit the market, and will likely be the fifth best tackle on the free agent market. Tackles don't come cheap, left or right. We all know how good Michael Oher for the Ravens is, and he played right tackle for them while they won a Super Bowl this year while FatKinnie held down the left side of the offensive line. IT'S LIKE NOTHING AT ALL MAKES SENSE EVER AGAIN.
Point is, Loadholt isn't coming back to the team cheaply, but we may need him to. Our tackle depth isn't exactly anything to be proud about (Demarcus Love do anything for you? Brandon Fusco? Didn't think so), and this team had their rebuilding year THIS year. That means they need to keep building themselves up, not take steps backwards. One of the greatest ways to do that is to have consistency along the offensive line. With a rookie stud in Matt Kalil, emerging star in John Sullivan, and a potential corner stone (more like a Pantheon pillar) in Phil Loadholt for the next three to four years (if Loadholt is re-signed)? Damn. Peterson may get his 2,500 yards yet.
I don't really know if the Vikings will shell out the coin for him though. Indications from recent interviews with Rick Spielman make it sound like Big Phil is the top internal free agent priority this year, followed by Jerome Felton at fullback. Both are unrestricted free agents. The rest of the team's unrestricted free agent pool includes names like Jamarca Sanford, Erin Henderson, Jasper Brinkley, Geoff Schwartz, Devin Aromashodu … I mean, not exactly a list of all-stars or even starters at this point. Not if we want to win a Super Bowl. So saying Loadholt and Felton are your top concerns in the free agent market doesn't seem ridiculous.
And you want to know the scariest part? I kind of agree with that (!). The Vikings may actually be making smart moves for once, moves smarter than the fans could make. Who knew it would ever come to this?!

Who Is Adopting Organic Farming Practices?
Stay Connected
Share or Save This Article
Consumers appear to be growing increasingly health conscious and environmentally aware. As evidence, U.S. organic food sales grew from $3.6 billion in 1997 to an estimated $28 billion in 2012 (see "Growth Patterns in the U.S. Organic Industry" in this issue of Amber Waves). Growth has been especially rapid since 2002, when USDA established national standards for organic agricultural production and processing. In response to the rise in demand for organic products, a growing number of farmers have had to adopt new (to them) organic production practices and establish new marketing channels. Farmers known for early adoption of innovative practices tend to operate larger farms and have higher levels of schooling and stronger links to outside sources of information than other farmers. How closely does this model of innovation adoption fit U.S. organic farming?
Despite strong growth in organic food sales, the adoption of organic farming is still relatively rare: only 1 percent of U.S. farms are organic. Data from USDA's 2007 Agricultural Resource Management Survey (ARMS) reveal that small farms (annual sales under $250,000) operated as a principal occupation were more apt to adopt organic farming than other small or large farms, so at least one characteristic associated with early adopters—large farm size—is not critical in organic farming. In the same period, however, farmers who had at least a bachelor's degree were more likely to have adopted organic practices, so higher educational attainment may play a role in the decision to farm organically.
Nearly 70 percent of the Nation's organic farms are in the Northeast or Pacific regions. Education appears to be particularly important as a predictor of organic farming in these areas. Among farmers in the Pacific region with at least a bachelor's degree, 8.4 percent are organic farmers. Only 2.4 percent of farmers without a bachelor's degree have adopted organic practices. The pattern in the Northeast is similar, although not as striking. When education and reliance on outside expertise are considered together, 10.2 and 14.5 percent of farmers, respectively, in the Northeast and Pacific regions who had at least a bachelor's degree and also used both paid farm management advice and the Internet were organic producers, compared with 0.1 percent or fewer farmers with none of these three characteristics.
Econometric analysis shows that all three characteristics—education, access to management advice, and Internet use—are independently associated with the adoption of organic farming.

CATHETERIZATION of the urinary bladder is indispensable in many clinical situations even though this procedure, and particularly the use of the indwelling catheter, has been increasingly incriminated as a cause of cystitis, pyelonephritis, and fatal bacteremia. Studies directed toward uncovering the mechanism by which these complications and their sequelae are produced have led to a vast literature.1-4
While the scope of the problem has been delineated, and the routes by which bacteria gain access to the catheterized urinary bladder have been charted, a specific anatomic lesion that might play a role in the development of bacteruria and bacteremia has not been identified.
I found a symmetrical, round, punched-out perforation in the dome of the urinary bladder to have been the cause of a generalized peritonitis in an autopsy performed several years ago. The etiology of the lesion went unexplained until an ulcer of the same configuration uncovered at the

Understanding the Different Types of Credit
Credit seems straightforward enough - borrow money and pay it back over time plus interest. But it's important to understand there are different types of credit and situations in which one may be a better financial choice.
The two main types of credit are installment and revolving credit. Mortgages are an example of installment credit while credit cards are an example of revolving credit.
How Installment Credit Works
People use installment loans to pay for expensive things like homes, cars and college costs. The loan is for a set amount of money and you receive the money in a lump sum. You have a pre-determined amount of time to repay the loan, usually several years. Your loan can have a fixed interest rate (does not change during the repayment period) or a variable rate (the rate can rise).
There are two types of installment loans:
Benefits of an installment loan:
How Revolving Credit Works
Revolving credit is an open-ended form of borrowing. You get a credit limit (the maximum you can borrow) and then use the credit and pay it back over time. As you use it, the amount of money available to you decreases. As you repay it, it goes back up.
Credit cards have some advantages:
Credit cards usually charge annual fees and fees for going over your credit limit or making balance transfers. Since there is no set amount of time for paying your balance off, your debt can increase substantially over time. In addition, if you don't pay your full balance each month, you pay interest on both the amount of money you spent using the card plus the interest you've built up. The amount you owe can grow quickly.
Choose the Right Type of Credit
By knowing the pros and cons of installment and revolving credit, you can choose the right type of credit for your purchase and financial situation and work to build your good credit.

So true! Though mine has concluded that being married to a nurse when sick is not necessarily in his best interest...he feels that in order to get the desired level of tender care and doting from me when he is sick he would need to have a limb missing or something...to some extent he is entirely correct...but I do make sure he's taken care of.The fireman has an ear/sinus infection so he is feeling miserable. when men get sick eh? end of the world
Lucky you to be still on vacation. Do you go back to work on Monday? Ah well. Life gets in the way of living sometimes.
My Journal
haha. well I guess the fireman doesnt know how lucky he is having me to look after him then. Although, lucky for me I went out for most of the afternoon so I didnt have to cope with the moping sad face all day. I was supposed to have some friends come to me for lunch but I rearranged it so that i took the food to their place instead. boy oh boy was it hot yesterday. I think I could only manage about 5 mins in the sun, it was just sweltering and very little breeze.
food pretty good yesterday but a few wines - made for a sleepy afternoon when i got home.
B bacon and scrambled egg with cream
L steak, green salad, capsicums stuffed with tomato, feta and chorizo, beetroot and cabbage salad? which my friend had done, very nice, cant remember everything in it but really colourful
skipped dinner but made the fireman an omelette for his. Had a couple of small wines while watching tv in the evening, mostly all the cooking shows we've taped recently. there is NOTHING on tv. Had a cup of milo in the evening with a dash of baileys in it, just felt like a milo, sick of tea. 2 biscotti
weight seems to be stuck on 54.2kg and 22.3 bf. annoying. not the weight, thats fine, but the bf. I like it below 22. have been feeling a bit bloated last few days but my period started yesterday so that could be why. But boy, the fireman is seriously bloated. must make sure he takes probiotics every day while on these antibiotics.
how are you testing the BF%? i wouldn't have guessed you at 22.3, personally. i would have put you at about 20 or so. you and i look similar i would say. hmm. of course, i don't have any pictures in a bikini because i do not own one (yet), but i'm not sure if i will because it's too damn cold to beach/swim here in wellington. seriously, i'm wearing a sweater right now. and it's "high noon" (1:00 pm) and such. what gives, huh?
anyway, yeah. also, how tall are ya?
maybe more lifting heavy things? was there a post about that somewhere in here?
Last edited by zoebird; 01-08-2011 at 05:06 PM.
yeah the bf isnt correct thats for sure, its measured on the bioimpedance scales which are notoriously inaccurate but it does give me a baseline. When I started eating more primally (note I dont call myself primal, I'm far too much of a cheat for that!!) the scales used to say 25%bf. I'm 5'3". Yes I should be trying to some heavy lifting but the shoulder has created a real problem. Yesterday fireman and I got some pavers to finish a path in the garden, well I struggled to lift one - in the past it would be heavy and I'd groan, but wasnt a problem. but I could barely get one paver out of the car boot yesterday. I really had to get him to move them all. I shovelled and moved river pebbles instead go go around the pavers.
food wise, not so good yesterday
B went to the french markets and had half a ham and cheese croissant and half a pain au chocolate. Neither were particularly good, so that isnt likely to be repeated
L While at the market we bought some really nice gluten free bread that actually tasted and looked and felt like bread! Had a ham and cheese sandwich for lunch
S had some potato chips with half a beer. Then hit the cocktails. Gin, cointreau, juice of 2 lemons and a dash of lime cordial to take the edge off the bitterness of the lemon. I liked it, fireman didnt. he made the next one with fresh lime and tonic.
D steak, leftover stuffed peppers, bbqed vege on the grill (zuchini out of my friends garden, kumara thinly sliced, fennel) and some steamed brocoli (we got this giant head of brocoli at the market for $1.50-it will keep us going for a week I swear!)
after writing yesterdays post I got up and showered and jumped on the scale to find that weight and bf had increased. felt really pissed off about that, i mean, hell, I hadnt even had dinner night before!!! all the booze I had last night I'm not expecting a change today. I have been sleeping really well the last few days though.
yeah, so, you are small naturally (short), and i knew there was something to the no lifting thing. i'm wondering if a lot of squats will help?
Suse you look great in those photos. Big difference.
OK, so to rub salt in the wound I then see your kgs and %BF. Hmph. I have to decide whether you are inspiration or whether I just hate you because I am jealous...hmmmm. OK< inspiration for now!! but can't promise anything!
eh, hatred and jealousy can also be great motivators, mog.
thanks mog. I certainly dont feel very inspirational at the moment. wide awake, 5am! grrr. You know what the difference is with my sleeping... its the bloody wine. my favourite tipple. I havent slept well at all. I thought having water with my wine would help but nah, seems not to. grrr. I dont want to start drinking spirits regularly, I really like my wine. But I really like my sleep too. what to do, what to do. I'm visiting a friend tonight who has been on an overseas jaunt for 2 mths, so I know I'll be drinking wine again tonight. I know, I know, I could choose not to, but having a wine with a friend is just so convivial!
shovelled another load of river pebbles yesterday. feeling it in my arse at the moment, the last 2 days of gardening has involved lots of squatting so yes butt, quads, hams are saying "owwwwwwww".
B Omelette with leftovers from previous nights dinner
L gluten free sandwich, (uggh a little uninspiring 2nd day, thats the trouble with gluten free bread) half a glass of beer
S corn chips and salsa with bubbles
D BBQ. steak, sausages, salad. followed up with an icecream on a stick - a small one. more bubbles and a glass of red wine.
am trying to convince fireman that we need a big tilting umbrella for our deck. we get sun all day on it, and are the last house on our street to get it in the evening as well as we are just slightly elevated. I would like to use the deck more in the evening but the way the sun goes down it is just too hot and the sun sort of comes straight under a normal umbrella. If we got a tilt one obviously we could move it so the sun stays out of our eyes. The big tilt ones come with a reasonably hefty price tag so he's not so keen being the frugal one, but I look at it as a great investment, like getting an outside room for the summer. will do more research today.

One thing people may not know is that rabbits are playful and active. A rabbit might not play on cue, like a dog thrown a ball or a cat chasing a feather at the end of a string, but place a ball in a bunny's play yard and watch your pet nudge the ball around in circles, or throw in a set of plastic keys and it's only a matter of time before those keys are tossed about. Just like Fido, some rabbits do play fetch, so never underestimate the potential of rabbit play!
Here are some toy types to get your pet hopping, romping, tossing, digging and shredding:
Destroy Toys (Toys rabbits chew up):
Chase Toys (Toys rabbits nudge around):
Snuggle Toys (Toys rabbits snuggle with):
Foraging Toys (Toys to challenge rabbits):
Toss Toys (Toys rabbits toss around):
Toys To Hide In (Toys rabbits may sleep in/retreat to):

Ground beef is technically refined too but I am not going to sweat that. Neither am I going to worry about separating fat and oil from its original source if it is done chemical free. Although I don't drink juice as I prefer to eat my calories, it is a simple one step process to get there. All edible in their original state too.
Grains are whole different kettle of fish, there is more than one step to getting it from grain to plate and there is more than just the processing going on. I believe in their original state they are all inedible.

Film producers to visit Rayne Jan. 7 to explore extra scenes
Film producers Shelly Hollis, Terry A. O'Neal and Michael O'Neal will visit Rayne, on Tuesday, Jan. 7, to explore scenic byways, nearby swamps and local venues to shoot in their upcoming film "Along the Dirt Road" that will begin production on March 24, 2014.
According to the news release, the producers are looking for additional scenes to film that best capture the essence of Louisiana life and culture. The producers welcome local community involvement.
"Along the Dirt Road" is an adaptation of the novel Sweet Lavender by Terry A. O'Neal. It tells a story of an African-American family torn apart by betrayal, abandonment and infidelity in a small Louisiana town during the 1960s.
In the adaptation of Terry a O'Neal's "Sweet Lavender," husband and father Raymond Johnston brings home a new born son that is conceived from an adulterous relationship. Shortly after, he vanishes, leaving his wife Angela to raise their daughter Rae and his "love child." While Rae is faced with the overwhelming reality of growing up without her father, Angela struggles to raise two children on her own during a difficult time of racial tension in the South.
Auditions for the film will be held on Jan. 4 at Central School Arts & Humanities Center in Lake Charles, and Jan. 5 at Cite des Arts in Lafayette.
It is an independent production that will be shot in Lake Charles, Cecilia, and Shreveport, and on the outskirts of town.
For more information, visit the movie website online at www.AlongTheDirtRoadFilm.com.

and Brian Lawson, The Huntsville Times
HUNTSVILLE, AL -- A veteran court reporter in Madison County Circuit Court has been arrested on charges stemming from missing evidence at the courthouse.
Shawn Graham was arrested last Thursday and charged with four felony counts of second-degree theft of property and five misdemeanor counts of interfering with judicial proceedings, according to the Madison County Sheriff's Office.
Presiding Circuit Court Judge Karen Hall stressed Wednesday that the evidence allegedly found in Graham's possession dates back some 10 years and is not related to any ongoing cases.
Graham, who has resigned his position, was a court reporter under Madison County District Judge Dennis O'Dell. He had worked for recently retired Circuit Judge Loyd Little for 14 years.
A court reporter transcribes a trial record but also handles evidence introduced during trials and transports and preserves evidence in storage after trials.
The charges involve "inappropriate activity regarding the circuit court's evidence room," said sheriff's Investigator Chad Brooks.
"Shawn Graham is a fine man and he is a fine court reporter and I don't know a single attorney in town who doesn't like that guy," Graham's attorney Patrick Tuten said.
Hall said the problem that led to Graham's arrest was discovered during a cleanup of evidence rooms. The courthouse has some evidence dating back decades that had been the responsibility of now-retired court reporters, Hall said.
Each court reporter is responsible for evidence in the courtroom where he or she works, and each has an individual storage area that cannot be generally accessed. Evidence remains in their storage area if a case is not appealed. If a case is appealed, the evidence becomes the responsibility of the circuit clerk's office and is stored separately.
During the cleanup, the court reporters and the clerk's office worked together, Hall said. Last week, Circuit Clerk Jane Smith noticed some items missing from her storage area, and an investigation was requested. Graham was arrested a few days later.
Hall said the judges and courthouse staff who know Graham were saddened and shocked by the arrest.
"The evidence at the Madison County Courthouse is secure," Hall said. "Each room has its own separate lock, and the policies and procedures regarding access to those rooms have been revisited since Mr. Graham's arrest."

Prototype Event observe() Method
This method registers an event handler on a DOM element.
To register a function as an event handler, the DOM element that you want to observe must already exist in the DOM.
Here are the explanations about the passed parameters:
element: The DOM element you want to observe; as always in Prototype, this can be either an actual DOM reference, or the ID string for the element.
evenetName: The standardized event name, as per the DOM level supported by your browser. This includes click, mousedown, mouseup, mouseover, mousemove and mouseout.
handler: This is the event handler function. This can be an anonymous function you create on-the-fly.
useCapture: Optionally, you can request capturing instead of bubbling. The details are in the DOM Level 2 Events
Return Value
Here is an example, which observe click event and take an action whenever a click event occurs.

Although Prince Ra-Man was created from the body and mind of Mark Merlin, the two of them were actually different beings (see separate Mark Merlin entry). Mark had been a famed "occult detective" in the town of Cloister for years when one of his old foes, the Gargoyle (I), kidnapped his fiancé Elsa Magusson and apparently dematerialized Mark. In fact, Mark had been transported to the subatomic world called Ra, where a native scientist named Kranak explained that this new world rendered Mark immortal, but incapable of leaving without losing body and soul. However, with Kranak's help, Mark was transformed into a being modelled after a legendary ruler of ancient Egypt. Mark Merlin was now dead, but in his place stood Prince Ra-Man, a powerful entity that was able to return to Earth and rescue Elsa.
Prince Ra-Man had a long career as a supernatural hero, fighting threats such as Helio the Sun-Demon, Doctor Seven, and Eclipso. He also revisited the world of Ra on two occasions. For a time, he was mystically stuck in the body of the cat Memkata, but returned in recent years. Shortly thereafter, Ra-Man sacrificed his life in battle against the Anti-Monitor's Shadow Creatures during the Crisis.
Following the death of Prince Ra-Man, his Mark Merlin persona was apparently returned to life. An aged and somewhat bitter Merlin was recently seen in a home for old people in Gotham City, taking on an assignment from the Penguin to communicate with the dead.

College Expenses
Children whose parents are divorced are entitled to contribution to college expenses from both of their parents. The law provides that the Court may award a sum of money as contribution from the property and income of either or both parents for the college education, professional or other training after high school. 750 ILCS 5/513(a)(2). After considering the resources or ability to pay of the parents and the child, college expenses are allocated.
College expenses include, but are not limited to, room, board, dues, tuition, transportation, books, fees, registration and application costs, medical expenses including medical insurance, dental expenses, and living expenses during the school year and periods of recess. The general rule of thumb is that the maximum a parent would be responsible for is a portion of the cost to attend a state school, namely: University of Illinois.
A parent's portion can be made payable to the child, the other parent or directly to the school. In some cases, a special account or trust can be established to fund the cost of higher education. The Court seeks to have the child achieve gradual independence and the responsibility for their own finances and may require the child to administer the funds received.
The child's ability to contribute to his or her own college expenses can include income from their part-time employment, scholarships, grants, student loans or gifts from others, ie: grandparents.
The parent's ability to contribute to college expenses can include income from employment as well as any child support received or paid for younger children. If a parent is remarried, contribution from their spouse to other general household expenses can be considered when determining available net income.
This right belongs to the child, but can be enforced by either parent. If the child is considering college choices at the time of the divorce, the allocation of said expenses can be included in the original Judgment for Dissolution of Marriage. Otherwise, the issue of allocation can be reserved. A parent's obligation to contribute to college expenses is modifiable based upon a change of circumstances. However, if the child is otherwise emancipated, Court ordered contribution can be terminated.
Generally, contribution to college is limited to a baccalaureate degree. The child must have the aptitude for college and maintain passing grades. The child MUST sign the necessary consents to allow both parents access to their academic transcripts, academic records and grade reports.

Through Standard Compliance, covered fleets may meet their Energy Policy Act (EPAct) requirements annually using one or more ways:
Covered state fleets also may meet their requirements by partnering with private, municipal, or local governments, or with other non-covered fleets and creating a plan that allows the covered state fleets included in the plan to meet their requirements by sharing their AFV-acquisition obligations. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) must approve the plan before fleets implement it.
Covered fleets must submit a report to DOE by December 31 after each model year to document compliance with EPAct requirements.
Covered fleets may apply for exemptions from their requirements.

The first mutation I fell in love with was pied, specifically the white-faced violet pied combination. I knew nothing about exhibiting or breeding, except saw the beauty in this one combination and had to have it and work with it. Every pied bird is unique in color and shading. Some of the most gorgeous birds I've ever seen are pieds.
It wasn't until March 2006 at an East Coast show, did I see beautiful green pieds. I realized that I had never given green pieds a chance and had solely focused on white-faced violet pieds (This is another advantage to attending shows, because many times you will see combinations and colors of birds you never even thought about trying to produce.) Also, one thing I realized early on was that my white-faced violet pieds were lacking in size. To increase the size of these birds, the first step was to breed back to the wild type, or normal green birds. From these pairings, I began to produce green pieds and green violet pieds. All of these babies will be split to white-faces. Later this year, I can then pair these birds that have a nicer size back to white-faced lovbirds to produce better-quality white-faced violet pieds.
Some pieds are heavily pied with a lot of yellow, and some are lightly pied with just a touch of yellow. Birds with even one pink toenail are considered pied, because they could produce birds that are heavily pied. When exhibiting pied lovebirds, symmetry is of the utmost importance. For example, if all the flight feathers on the left side are white, then all the flight feathers on the right side should be white as well. Symmetry is not easy to achieve. If there is a splash of yellow on the left side of the bird, then it should be on the right side as well. Oftentimes pieds have a couple of dark flights and a couple of light flights.
Having a symmetrical pied bird does not necessarily mean a bird is good or bad, it's just the standard that has been set for pied lovebirds by the African Lovebird Society when exhibiting. An unsymmetrical lightly pied bird could produce a heavily pied bird just as a symmetrical, heavily pied bird could. One interesting thing I've found when working with pieds is that pairs that can produce heavily pied, symmetrical birds, are more likely able to produce heavily pied, symmetrical birds. I have quite a few pairs that can produce pied birds. One of my pairs produced two heavily green pied violets and, this year, a beautiful green pied baby (shown.) This baby not only has symmetrical white flight feathers, but is heavily pied and very stunning. I decided to name this baby, Firefly. What a fitting name as its yellow colors fly out as if painting a portrait on fire.
One thing that's looked down upon in terms of exhibiting is breeding pied to the Ino mutation, because it will break the forehead line in the bird when these two mutations are combined together. The Ino mutation is already a yellow color, so the pied cannot be seen except by looking at the jagged forehead line. << Read the Previous Entry Read the Next Entry >>

• Transient hypotension may be one of many factors contributing to the high prevalence of falls among elderly people. To determine the frequency and magnitude of hypotensive responses to common daily activities, and their potential relationship to falls in the elderly, we examined blood pressure (BP) and heart rate during a standardized series of activities in 38 institutionalized recurrent fallers (age, 87±6 years), 20 institutionalized nonfallers (age, 85±5 years), and 10 healthy young control subjects (age, 24±3 years). The coefficient of variation for systolic BP during all activities was higher in elderly subjects (fallers, 14%±5%; nonfallers, 12%±3%) than in young control subjects (8%±1%). In contrast, the coefficient of variation for heart rate during all activities was higher in young subjects than in the elderly subjects. Elderly subjects had marked BP reduction following meals and nitroglycerin, which was significantly greater in fallers than in nonfallers, independent of the cause of the fall. Thus, institutionalized elderly have marked BP variability and hypotensive responses to meals and nitroglycerin. A decline in BP during common preload-reducing stresses may predispose some elderly people to falls.

LUBBOCK - A food science researcher at Texas Tech could receive up to $1.5 million from the state's Emerging Technology Fund to help her market a cutting-edge process to make meat and poultry products safer for consumers.
Texas Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst and state Sen. Bob Duncan announced the award Monday after touring an on-campus laboratory where the researcher, Mindy Brashears, developed the technology.
"This is a big day in the history of Texas Tech University," Tech President Guy Bailey said.
Working in a third-floor laboratory in the university's Experimental Sciences building, Brashears has developed a high-power microwave that pasteurizes meat and eggs.
Brashears, director of the university's International Center for Food Industry Excellence, is working to market the invention - she said it also has applications in the health care industry - through her company, MicroZAP. The company will receive an initial $500,000 from the fund and stands to qualify for $1 million more later.
Duncan, Dewhurst and several of Tech's top administrators touted her work as an example of the research Texas must encourage as it pushes more of its state universities toward Tier One status as nationally recognized institutions.
The lieutenant governor and state senator explained the importance of the state's rekindled dedication to develop more premier research schools.
Texas has three today: Rice University, Texas A&M University and the University of Texas at Austin.
"It has been my goal for a long time to create a fourth and fifth," Dewhurst said.
In November, voters approved a measure to reallocate about $500 million into a new state fund for seven of the state's emerging universities.
Administrators at Tech and the six other schools now are working to meet several benchmarks to qualify for the funding.
Tech Chancellor Kent Hance has said the university could qualify for the fund within the next two years.
His office estimates it could bring in an additional $10 million annually for research.
Dewhurst said Tech is "well- positioned" to be among the first schools to draw from the state's new fund.
"Texas Tech is certainly moving in the right direction to become one of our next national research universities," he said.

Two women were taken to a local hospital after they were injured in a traffic accident about 11:15 a.m. Friday at the intersection of South Western Street and Paramount Boulevard, Amarillo police said.
A 17-year-old woman was driving a Nissan Murano east on Paramount through the intersection when her vehicle was struck on the passenger side by a Clairmont retirement facility bus traveling north on Western, police said.
The driver and a passenger in the Murano were taken to a hospital to be treated for injuries that were not considered life-threatening.
There were no passengers on the bus at the time of the accident, police said.
The 84-year-old driver of the bus was issued a citation for disregarding a stop light, police said.
Traffic on Paramount was closed at the intersection for about half an hour while emergency crews cleared the accident.

OKAY, I'm trying to see if I can give this one a go. I have a CPU AND NAND image from a dead (bridged GPU BGA) motherboard, I want to put onto another working falcon motherboard by having it reballed. I have had quite a few reballed, and they work nicely.
Couple issues:
1. The ethernet chip from the dead one is the small (BCM) one, and the one I'm swapping to is the ICS. Are the drivers for these stored in NAND and are different? If I put the NAND from the other mobo w/ the BCM on this is it gonna work with the ICS?
2. The CPU from the good board was manufactured in taiwan, from the bad board was canada. Any issues here?
Everything else is identical, except for some numbers on the southbridge in the bottom row. Top row of the part number sticker on the SATA port is the same part number. The dead was manufactured 8/08 and the good 1/08. Any thoughts? Anyone succesfully accomplish this? Any input would be appreciated, since this is my friend's xbox and don't wanna buy him a new one

If it is only a bridged joint then why don't you just have the GPU reballed and fix the system that way?

Holy Rosary Church kicked off its more than century old "La Festa Italiana" tonight in Downtown Jersey City with sausage sandwiches, Italian pastries, live music, rides for children and tradition dating back to the first feast in 1902.
Sixth Street between Brunswick and Monmouth streets was packed with a diverse crowd enjoying the event held in a neighborhood that once was predominately Italian.
"The people tell us they never had anything like this in their neighborhoods growing up," said Nick Grillo, who has been a volunteer and organizer of the feast for more than 20 years. "So it makes us happy to share our heritage."
In the yard behind the church, people made wagers on a betting wheel while sipping espresso and nibbling on Italian pastries such as Sfogliatelle, cannoli, pasticciotto, pizzelle and biscotti con annisetto. On the street in front of the church's open doors, live music played.
Grillo said that as the Italian population in the area dwindled, so did the feast. But it began growing again around 2007 "with the gentrified community. It's a wonderful thing." But Grillo warned, "If you are on a diet, don't come."
Andy Apanzaniello was baptized in Holy Rosary in 1936, he was sacristan at the church from 1970 to 2002 and he was enjoying the continuity of the feast yet again tonight.
"It brings back a lot of memories and a lot of oldtimers come back," said Apanzaniello. "It feels good to see it continue with the young generation."
Also among the crowd was Hudson County Superior Court Judge Edward DeFazio and his wife.
The judge said, "This is truly a traditional Italian festival and it's a great mix of people."
Michelle Hernandez, 33, of Brunswick Street, said she has been coming to the feast for eight years.
"We live a couple of blocks down so you can hear all the fun that is going on," said Hernandez. Although not Italian, "She said she comes for the zeppole, pizza, Italian sausage and sense of community."
The feast will continue every night through Sunday from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. There will be live performances by acts including the B Street Band, Everybody's Everything and the Cameos, along with comedian Uncle Floyd on Saturday and Jersey Sound on Sunday.
There will also be the annual Super 50/50 drawing which will be held Sunday at 11 p.m. Last year's winner took home more than $12,000.
A Holy Rosary School reunion will be held on Friday and a Ferris High School reunion on Saturday, both in the Holy Rosary Parish Center.

Pujara slams 306 to put India A on top
By IANS - HUBLI
Published: 11th October 2013 07:54 PM
Last Updated: 11th October 2013 07:54 PM
Skipper Cheteshwar Pujara carved out an unbeaten 306 (415b, 33x4) as India A took command of their four-day match against West Indies A, who -- trailing by 296 runs on the first innings -- were 116 for three at close on the third and penultimate day here Friday.
Pujara, who was 139 overnight, ground the Windies attack that made little impression on the 25-year old Rajkot batsman who made the best of a reprieve in the last over before lunch when on 198 and with the help of the lower-order batsmen helped India to make 506 for 9 declared.
The Windies began their second innings poorly, losing openers Kraigg Brathwaite (21) and skipper Kieran Powell (6) and first innings top-scorer Leon Johnson (1) before Narsingh Deonarine (44 batting) and Assad Fudadin (36 batting) added 59 runs for the unfinished fourth wicket.
Still trailing by 180 runs, the Windies, who lead the three-match series 1-0, face an onerous task to save the game on the morrow.
Brief scores:
West Indies A 268 and 116 for 3 (Kraigg Brathwaite 21, Narsingh Deonarine 44 not out, Assad Fudadin 36 not out) vs India A 564 for 9 decl in 150 overs (Gautam Gambhir 123, Cheteshwar Pujara 306 not out, Virender Sehwag 38, Uday Kaul 26, Ashley Nurse 3 for 106, Nikita Miller 2 for 112, Deonarine 2 for 78).

New advances in Havana's heritage recovery and cultural development
On 16 November 2009 the agreement for the implementation of the project Heritage Recovery and Cultural Development in Havana: Segundo Cabo Palace between the European Union and UNESCO was signed. It is an initiative for multilateral cooperation executed by the Office of the Historian of the City of Havana.
The start of the project coincided with the anniversary of the adoption of the 1972 Convention concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage, in whose List Old Havana and its Fortification System was inscribed in 1982. This Historical Site includes the Segundo Cabo Palace, built in the 18th century.
The project falls within Main Line of Action 1 of the UNESCO Culture programme for the 2012-2013 biennium: Protecting and conserving cultural and natural heritage through the effective implementation of the 1972 Convention. At present, on its fourth anniversary, the project is in its final stage. The progress made in meeting the timetable for the project was observed at a recent visit made by specialists from the UNESCO Regional Office for Culture and the Office of the Historian of Havana.
In 2014, once the Segundo Cabo Palace is restored, the facility will be used as an interpretative centre dedicated to intercultural relations between Cuba and Europe, thereby ratifying the role of culture as a bridge to dialogue and development.
