Religious Right Activists Plan Protests of Democratic National Convention
Patrick Mahoney of the Christian Defense Coalition and Terry Gensmer of the Charismatic Episcopal Church today announced their plans to lead demonstrations against the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte. Mahoney is an anti-choice stalwart whose gimmicks include photoshopping Scarlett Johansson in a Klan robe and protesting the inauguration of President Obama, who Mahoney says is lying about his Christian faith. The two activists say that their protests against the convention will include "live ultrasounds throughout Charlotte" in order to have "the pre-born children of America 'speak' to President Obama," along with "rallies with African-American leaders" to bolster their claims that legal abortion is a surreptitious way to commit black genocide:
Rev. Mahoney is the Director of the Christian Defense Coalition in Washington, D.C. and Father Terry Gensemer is the Director of CEC for Life based in Birmingham, Alabama.
The group hopes to see thousands from Charlotte and around the nation participate in the event which will include: prayer vigils and rallies seeking God for the healing of our nation, calls for repentance from the Christian community, reaching out to the needy in Charlotte with love and service projects, major public events around the City of Charlotte, calling on President Obama and praying for him to embrace life, family, marriage, religious liberty and human rights and justice for all.
A major focus will be on the pro-life issue and will include such things as: leaving 3,300 flowers at the Time Warner Arena to remember and honor the 3,300 children who die every day from abortion, prayer at local abortion clinics, "Voices from the Womb" which will perform live ultrasounds throughout Charlotte having the pre-born children of America "speak" to President Obama and rallies with African-American leaders focusing on the high rate of abortions in the black community.

Urban runoff from gardens and hard surfaces is the #1 source of ocean pollution. In that runoff are pollutants such as:
The first one-inch of rain after a dry spell is called the "first flush," and contains most of the pollutants during a rainstorm. Traditional building codes have directed rainwater off the property to prevent flooding of a site. But this runoff contributes to flooding of neighborhoods and erosion of stream banks. It also can overwhelm sewer systems in which the storm drains and sewer infrastructure is combined. Plus, this wastes a free source of irrigation for the landscape. Runoff also happens during dry periods, known as dry-weather runoff, with sprinklers overwatering and overshooting the landscape.
Soil and plants are also part of the solution to climate change mitigation and removing greenhouse gases from the atmosphere such as carbon dioxide.
If soil is disturbed from practices such as tilling or "turning over" soil, the carbon will be oxidized, or exposed to oxygen and released into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. Also, it's important to allow dead plant materials such as leaves to remain as mulch and organic matter to continue the process of feeding soil microbiology and sequestering carbon.

Here are five quick tips on how to stop and prevent a nose bleed before it occurs.
Tip 1: Use moisturizer.
Prevent it before it happens. The main cause of a bloody nose is because of a dry environment. If you live in an area where it is typically dry and lacking humidity, then it is wise to apply lubricant to the inside of your nose to keep it from getting irritated. Often what happens is when our noses become dry, we have a tendency to pick the interior of the nostrils with our finger or rub the exterior of the nose because of the dryness. Try taking some Vaseline and apply it to the interior of both nostrils to alleviate the "caked dry" feeling you get with a dry nose.
Tip 2: Use a humidifier.
Again, prevention is always the best remedy. The most likely reason you have a nose bleed is because the air where you live isn't at an appropriate humidity level for your airways. To increase moisture in your room or work environment, plug in a humidifier to disperse water vapour so the air is friendlier

In the same way, the ability to educate and empower the customer with expert tips (even if he doesn't buy your product) will go a long way to win customer trust and loyalty. It all boils down to being able to create a universal yet unique experience for the customer.

I recently attended the Group Information Session for Southwest Airlines for the Flight Attendant Position. I have been invited back to the SWA People Department for a Second Interview in 1 week. I have a few questions that hopefully someone can answer here for me to give me a little help! Thanks.
First off, (and this is a rather embarrassing question), what things would disqualify you from the FA position in terms of the Pre-Hire background Investigation? I am rather embarrassed to say that I have 2 misdemeanor convictions on my record (neither were for anything serious, just stupid mistakes). I also do not have the cleanest driving record. I am not a bad person or anything, it is just that I made some bad decisions when I was younger. Should I be worried about this?
Second, what should I expect from the Second Interview? They told me that I will be meeting with 2 people, one whom is a FA, the other whom is Recruiter. What kind of questions will they be asking?
Third and Final, does anybody have any advice for the Second Interview? I have heard things like: be yourself, be friendly, outgoing, speak clearly, dress nice and all the usual Interview Advice. Is there anything I should AVOID doing or saying?

Notes from Edwin Outwater, KWS Music Director
Edwin writes about the details that go into the concerts of the Signature Series.
Lehninger Conducts Brahms
For this concert, we welcome Marcelo Lehninger to join us. Below, he shares some of his thoughts about this special concert.
- Edwin Outwater
It is my great pleasure to conduct your orchestra for the first time. The program this week features the music of one of my favorite composers: Johannes Brahms.
If I could describe this program with only one word, it would be "destiny."
It took Brahms over twenty years to write his first symphony, in part because he was so concerned about being a good symphonist after Beethoven. "I shall never write a symphony! You can't have any idea what it's like always to hear such a giant marching behind you!" Brahms, nearing 40 and already one of Germany's most famous composers, wrote in a letter to a friend, referring to Beethoven.
Indeed, the First Symphony starts like a march, with strong timpani ostinato strokes. What a dramatic way to start a symphony! You can hear the struggle of an extremely self-critical person, who felt insecure and intense pressure to prove himself as good of a symphonic composer as Beethoven.
The First Symphony is a life journey; with moments of drama, as well as lyricism and tenderness, ending in triumph. Its destiny in music history was established: it is one of the all time favorite symphonies of audience members and musicians.
Brahms started working on what would become one of his major choral works in the summer of 1868. After spending time contemplating the sea and reading poems by Friedrich Hölderlin, Brahms composed Schicksalslied (Song of Destiny). Sung in German, here the Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony will join forces with the Grand Philharmonic Choir to perform this poetic and romantic work.
To open the concert, we are going to play the piece On the Double by the young Canadian composer Jordan Pal. It is fascinating to see how the music of a past great master, like Brahms, continues to influence today's music.
I am really looking forward to conducting this beautiful program for you.
Marcelo Lehninger
Concerto Celebration
April 2016:The concerts this week are about what lies under the surface of an orchestra. It's about who we are and what we do, and it's the final major event of our 70th Anniversary Season. The first half features four of our musicians in solo roles, and three of them are making their debuts as soloists on the Signature Series. Our wonderful new principal bassoon Ian Hopkin plays a virtuoso showpiece by Carl Maria Von Weber, and our new concertmaster Bénédicte Lauzière plays Ravel's wildly imaginative and colorful Tzigane. Principal violin Natasha Sharko premieres a brand new piece by Canadian composer Owen Pallett. Owen is well known in the indie music scene, but is also rapidly making a name for himself in the classical world with beautiful, evocative music, and a truly distinctive compositional voice. I've been trying to get Owen to write something for us for at least eight years, and can't believe it finally happened. Finally, our beloved Jim Mason joins us for a performance of the Marcello's Oboe Concerto in C minor. Jim is an undisputed musical leader in the orchestra and a poetic artist. I'm thrilled to be able to work wth him again this year as soloist. Having these four musicians play on one concert is meant to be a testament to the extraordinary talent in our ranks. There are many more musicians just like them in the KWS.
The second half of the program features guests from the Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony Youth Orchestra, the most advanced of the six ensembles that we offer to young musicians in the region. There is no better way to learn than to play side-by-side with professional musicians. The students can instinctively feel the way seasoned musicians move and breathe. It's an unforgettable experience, and it also celebrates the close relationship between our Youth Orchestra Program and the KWS.
Finally the KWS plays Bartók's masterpiece Concerto for Orchestra. It is exactly what it advertises: a tour de force for the individual sections but also for the orchestra as a whole. By turns dramatic, comic, tragic, and exhilarating, this piece really has it all, and the musicians and I are thrilled to present it to our audiences for the first time in many, many, years. I hope you can join us the weekend. When you leave this weekend's concerts, you will have no doubt that we have a truly remarkable orchestra in our community.
- Edwin Outwater
February 2016: The Russian imagination in music is almost always related to storytelling. The classical tradition in Russia developed much later than in European countries to the West. Russian music is unique in how it absorbed Western traditions into its own art, literature and music. Rather than aesthetic structures like sonata form, Russian music is often built around a narrative or an unfolding set of emotions or experiences. What Russian music has in common with composers like Beethoven or Brahms is that it explores the vast and subtle emotions that are hard to describe in words, but easy to sense in an orchestral setting.
Tchaikovsky and Rimsky-Korsakov use established narratives to tell their musical story. Tchaikovsky's The Tempest is a very early work, written around the same time is his famous version of Romeo and Juliet. It evokes the magic of Shakespeare's Island, the trudging steps of Caliban, and the whirling magic of Prospero. It is music of pure and vivid atmosphere. Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade is one of the most famous musical stories ever written for orchestra. In fact, it even has its own narrator, the solo violin. This is one of the few pieces I've revisited here in the ten years that I have been Music Director. The main reason I'm doing this is that we have a magical new storyteller in the form our concertmaster, Bénédicte Lauzière. I'm so excited to hear what will do with the world's most famous orchestral violin solo.
Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3 has no set narrative, but it is full of wild, exuberant and unfettered emotion. It is one of my favourite concertos written for any instrument. There's not much to say about it, except that it will carry you away with his breathless virtuosity for the piano, the distinctive sounds from the orchestra, its ingratiating melodies, and its subversive humour. It is also a magic carpet ride.
Die Fledermaus
This week is the realization of a dream to bring opera back to the stage of the Centre in the Square. I adore conducting operas. The teamwork, the combination of words and music, text and subtext, and most of all, the glory of the human voice are things that draw me into this world. Die Fledermaus is the perfect work to "bring opera back" to the KWS because it's one of the most beautiful and perfect operas ever written. Its succession of beautiful and memorable tunes is like listening to a greatest-hits record; the way the music provides subtext and emotions to the deceptions and flirtations happening in the plot is second to none; the colors of the orchestra provide a glow to the voices that has been imitated by countless composers after Strauss.
During this cold winter week, there is also another reason to perform Die Fledermaus, and that has to do with the subject matter. Many operas tackle huge and weighty subjects, such as love and death. Die Fledermaus unashamedly is about pleasure and delight. It's about those smiles, jokes, flirtations, dances, and parties that make us happy day to day, and here they're elevated to art. So we hope you can join us this week, and indulge.
Bruckner and Bruch
November 2015: Every season I plan one concert for the orchestra that is an amazing exploration of great music rarely played be the KWS. These are the concerts the musicians wait the entire year to play, the music they practice for months in preparation. When we take the stage, we will be thrilled to fill the Centre in the Square with and spectacular we love, music never heard live by most of our audience.
This year, we present Anton Bruckner's monumental Fourth Symphony. Written in the era of Brahms and Wagner, this Symphony is subtitled "The Romantic." It evokes, according to Bruckner himself, ancient castles, forest scenes, and noble knights riding off to battle. It is full of gorgeous melodies, epic climaxes, and moments of total awe and absolute mystery. It is one of the most beautiful and original symphonies ever written.
The reason it is rarely performed here, is that it calls for a large orchestra, so we have taken special efforts to expand our orchestra to the forces necessary to create Bruckner's "Cathedrals of Sound." We know this symphony will sound especially spectacular in our own Cathedral of Sound, the Centre in the Square, a concert hall with the best acoustics in all of Canada. This is a concert you really shouldn't miss, and a great way to introduce friends to the unmatchable power and beauty of orchestral sound and expression. We hope you can join us.
Beethoven Marathon
September 2015: We open our 70th Anniversary Season with a musical marathon. This first weekend of concerts is really a mini-festival, exploring all five of Beethoven's piano concertos, played by the great Canadian pianist (and my old friend) Stewart Goodyear. Stewart is a pianist of astonishing technical ability and deep focus, and in recent years he has turned his attention to Beethoven, playing marathon performances of all his piano sonatas. I asked him to continue this "deep immersion" experience with the concertos and our orchestra, and he quickly agreed. You'll hear completely different music on all three programs, and I hope you will join us for the complete journey!
The first two piano concertos are clear descendants of Mozart and Haydn, full of wit and charm, but there are hints of what is to come. The minimal, ultra-simple theme that opens the first piano concerto is a hint of how Beethoven will use motivic "building blocks" in the future. The second movement is meditative and contemplative, and hints at Beethoven's increasing desire to share his inner life in music. By the 3rd concerto, Beethoven's ambitions increase, and from here on out these pieces feel completely new and original: the expansive minor-key humor of the 3rd, the absolute sublime and intimate quality of the 4th, and the epic scope of the 5th, the "Emperor" concerto. The orchestra and I have performed all of these works many times, but never at the same time! We're excited, and know we're going to learn a lot along the way.
Along with the concertos, we play the famous Coriolan and King Stephen overtures. They couldn't be more different. Coriolan has a tremendous amount in common with the first movement of the 5th Symphony, with it's unrelenting focus, and sense of battle. The King Stephen Overture is full of humor and allusions to folk music. The humor streak continues this weekend with Beethoven's compact and witty 8th Symphony. This is a work of unbridled creativity, and somehow Beethoven packs an amazing amount of material into this relatively brief work. It is full of humor, but the musical jokes are rough, almost manic, at times. There's an undercurrent of violent energy in this work that is both peculiar and mysterious.
To open the festival, we are joined by the Grand Philharmonic Choir for Calm Seas and Prosperous Voyage, as we set sail on our anniversary season. It's only fitting that they sing these first notes with us, for it was from this choir that the KW Symphony emerged as an independent entity seventy years ago.

However, it isn't fair to say that the Leafs have played well enough to be included in a discussion of the NHL's elite teams, not yet at least. There are still some issues that need to be addressed.
November is typically the time when the initial hype from the beginning of the season starts to wear off and teams begin the real grind of the regular season. This is when we can truly see which teams are contenders and which teams are pretenders.
Here are 10 questions about the Leafs that will (hopefully) be answered in November.

What is a Public Adjuster?
Public Adjusters are professionals who are employed exclusively by a policyholder who has sustained an insured loss. They handle every detail of the claim, working closely with the insured to provide the most equitable and prompt settlement possible.
A Public Adjuster inspects the loss site immediately, analyzes the damages, assembles claim support data, reviews the insured's coverage, determines current replacement costs and exclusively serves the client, not the insurance company.

Wake up Mr President
I was a Dod army contractor in 2004 I was head of HR in for Halliburton Baghdad Headquarters green zone. My team consisted of folks from all nations. We worked around the clock day and night, we fought hard to preserve Iraq and worked along side the Iraqi people. The Iraqi people layed their lives down for us we had PPE they had nothing but their soles. We saw friends get blown up, soilders blown up, Iraqi citizen's blown up. Everyone sacrificed their lives to stop the terriosts from entering American soil. We saw 2 year old children sell porn cd's to make money to buy food for their family. Car bombs blew up iraqi governing council, bombs took off side of the heads of our halliburton contractors and soilders. I never speak up but I am digusted with our government and president. If we don't fight we will be facing this in America and our children will be blown up by these terriosts. Americans have no clue and kept in the dark of what is really going on out there. I would love for you to fly my other team members in from around the world and us reunite for the first time and share our real stories of what a war zone is all about and how Iraqi citizens were so grateful we were there by their side. We have kept our mouths shut we worked like dogs to protect America. We flew on C130's with bodies of soilders cried all the way home. America needs a shake up and reality check if we don't go to Iraq's aid we will be next. Folks are too selfish or don't even care to realize the pain, tradegy, suffering, sacrifices, our troops and contractors made to make our homeland safe and how contractors and military lost their lives. I could write a book of experiences my term served. No help or compassion has been hardly given and in my eyes we all came back with PST but none had counseling to enter back into society. Mr. President wake up smell the coffee pot there was a reason we all sevied in Iraq contractors and miltary it was to protect the USA and we are now wide open if you don't do anything. Call me if you want to do an interview with me I will be glad to speak up for the first time ever and was the first female to work on exceutive team in green zone with Halliburton and military and the girls who worked for me worked so hard and were so brave. Thanks Mimi, Sophia, Megan, Annabelle, Stephanie, Connie, Chris, mike who always looked out for us and fed us at his camp and all my fellow team mates who had the guts and integrity to fight and stand up for the USA. My heart goes out for all the military that lost their lives and parents who lost their children. I never speak up regarding politics but I am digusted with our government and would love America to know what it was like over there in 2004 the real truths. The fire fighters for Halliburton put out fires, retrieved body parts from car bombs smouldering ashes along with our heavy equipment guys, school busses with chidlren blown up. It is not that Bush wanted the oil it is because the terriosts if not held back will be in USA fighting and taking control. Americans have no idea of the fear, pain suffering, poverty and how normal the Iraqi people are. Our government does need to finish what it intended to do stop terriosts and protect this nation. Instead we loan money to banks and car makers and make the rich CEO's richer normal folks like us cannot get no help. Banks are ripping folks off, our nation is in poverty in most parts. Poverty will cause the terriosts groups to move in. What are we thinking!

Play way Method
Pre and Primary Teachers Training Program
Children love to play and it is their natural instinct. The play-way method was conceived by Friedrich Wilhelm August Froebel, who is also the father of the Kindergarten method. 'Play' according to Froebel is the work of the children. It is 'the purest, the most spiritual, and product of man at this stage.'
There is a theory, which states that a child understands his needs and goals while playing. So it is very important to teach children with the play way method. It has been proved that maximum amount of learning results while playing games. While playing games the environment is very relaxed, this makes learning interesting and fun. This is the most desirable method of learning for kids. The informal and free atmosphere gives the kids a chance to learn concepts, ideas, math and even language. Toys can sometimes be the root of mathematical concepts. Thus, in the play way methodology toys and apparatus like checkers, magic squares, Puzzles and building blocks are used to make teaching and learning a memorable experience for the learners.
ATI's Pre and Primary Course incorporate the principles and methodologies based on the Play Way Method. The Teachers training makes the trainee teachers aware of the salient features of this method linking play and literacy effectively.

THE THYROID HORMONE has profound effects on the growth, development, and maturation of the nervous system. Infantile hypothyroidism results in retardation, not only of bodily growth, but also mental development. Eayrs and his associates1 have made extensive studies of the influence of the thyroid hormone on the postnatal morphogenesis of the nervous system in the rat. Thyroidectomy at birth results in a paucity of axodendritic connections, primarily in the neuropil. The perikarya are small in size and more densely packed, and axons and dendrites in the interperikaryonal space are reduced in amount. Associated with these morphological changes are concomitant disturbances in the development of electrical and behavioral activities. The electroencephalograms of neonatally thyroidectomized rats remain low in amplitude, and the appearance of evoked responses is delayed. When it finally appears, the evoked response is characterized by an abnormally long latency and duration and a low amplitude. Innate behavioral

Lindsay Lohan Is Free… Kind Of
Lindsay Lohan is a free woman. The 25-year-old actress appeared in Los Angeles Superior court today, March 29, for the final hearing in her DUI case — and Judge Sephanie Sautner ended her probation.
The judge found that Lohan had successfully completed her required therapy sessions and community service hours.
"I have read and considered the probation report," Judge Sautner said. "She did it [her hours]. She was given one year to complete it all and she's completed it short of a year. She has done everything that this court has asked of her."
But while probation on the DUI case has been lifted, she still has a few years left on her jewelry theft case. Still, Judge Sautner decided to take Lohan off of formal probation and place her on informal probation for the next few years. During this time, she doesn't have to appear in court or meet with a probation officer, unless she breaks the law.
"You need to live your life in a more mature [way]," Judge Sautner said. "Stop the clubbing. Focus on your work. The DUI case is now over. The necklace case will be hanging over your head until May 14, 2014."
Lohan's attorney stated: "I want to thank the court for being fair with us."
"It really has opened a lot of doors for me," Lohan said with a big grin on her face.

Garcia-Matthysse Could Be in Washington, D.C., on 9/7
by David P. Greisman
The anticipated fight between junior welterweights Danny Garcia and Lucas Matthysse could possibly be at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C., on Sept. 7, according to Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer.
"That's the fight we want to do. That's the fight [that] fight fans want to see," Schaefer said, speaking at the post-fight press conference this past Saturday following Matthysse's win over Lamont Peterson.
The reason the fight would be in D.C. and not at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn — where his past two bouts have been — is because the venue is booked, according to the promoter. Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, where Matthysse-Peterson took place, also isn't available.
Though both Garcia and Matthysse are with adviser Al Haymon, Schaefer does not see any difficulty with making the bout happen.
"I think it's going to be easier, not more difficult," Schaefer said. "Absolutely no problem, because Al Haymon is a fan of the sport as well. He wants to see the best fight the best."
The co-feature bout could be a match between Lamont Peterson and Zab Judah, according to what Schaefer told Dan Rafael of ESPN.com.

An idea for the season rankings, tournaments, ways to determine fighters of the year
Hey all,
Again I'm totally new to this forum thing, and I don't know if any one will read this but I have been sitting around waiting to get started and was thinking about the league and how there was mention of tournaments to come along side the regular weekly league play. I have a some what long idea that I think would be cool and it would set up a way to have good tournaments and a system of ranking players in each weight class and also individual players.
It starts with a points system in ranking. In the rankings thread shows examples of eight players being ranked. Going by this example, the points would work like this weekly. Fighters ranked #1 in their respective divisions would get 8 points towards their league total.
As the tournaments go there would be three.
1) "The Forest Griffin Open" An open style of tournament where every one in each weight division would have an oppertunity to participate in the tournament. The break down would be by division and roster so there would be ten tournaments. The points would go one of two ways here.
*Either each win gets you two points and each loss gets you one point
*The first round win get you 2 points first round loss get you 1 point and the points double for lossess and wins as you advance in rounds
2) "The Matt Hughes Invitational" This tournament would be a smaller selection of the top eight ranked fighters of each weight class seperated by platform roster. The top either would be desided not by the top eight rankings but the top eight point totals by fighters to this point including league and "The Open"
* 10 tournament
* Points
Quarters - winner 2 pts. loser 1 pt., Semis - W- 4 pts. L-2pts., Finals - W- 8 L-4
3) "The Randy Couture Classic" - This would be a joint platform tournament and is special because of it's "Champions League" like feel. This time only five tournaments one per each weightclass.
- The two winners of "The Open" and "The Invitational" automatically qualify
- The top twelve point ranks regarldless of platform are granted addmission.
- Tie breaker can be chosen for point ties in all these tournaments
* Points
1st - W - 2, L - 1; Quater - W - 4, L - 2; Semi - W - 8, L - 4; W - 16; L - 8
After adding up the points from the season as well as the tournaments we can come up with
*Fighters of the year in each weight class in each platform
*Pound for Pound Fighters for each platform
* Players of the year on each platform
Just my idea let me know if any one likes the sound of it

The city of Charleston's skateboarding regulations and map have worked so well that leaders are poised to make them permanent.
City Council this month is expected to include the rules- that started out as a temporary test - as part of the city code, applicable to anyone who rides a skateboard downtown.
"It's been a noticeable improvement on King Street," said Sgt. Heath King, who is part of the police department's tourism and entertainment district enforcement.
King Street was one of the multiple routes where boarding was prohibited under the pilot that started last March.
Also banned was riding on Meeting, Broad, East Bay and Calhoun streets. But skateboarders were given more freedom to ride the roads around the College of Charleston, where students were most likely to travel around on four wheels.
Skateboarders were further required to keep their conduct in check. They had to obey all the rules of the road, couldn't use cellphones while rolling or go barefoot.
Violators faced a fine of at least $50, plus court costs.
City Council's Traffic and Tourism Committee on Tuesday endorsed making the rules permanent, saying they fell within the city's push to incorporate alternative forms of travel onto city streets.
But they also wanted a way to police or crack down on unsafe or out-of-control riders, and to better define where skateboarding is allowed since the previous map proved to be unwieldy.
"What we came up with was a good solution; it worked," City Councilman Mike Seekings said.
King said city police weren't heavy-handed in their enforcement during the test period. The department set up checkpoints and education periods, including at the start of the College of Charleston school year.
The regulations and riding map were also blasted by e-mail to the C of C students, King said.
Over the life of the pilot, officers wrote about 60 violation tickets since March of 2013, King added. With court costs, though, the assessment was as high as $113 for some violators.
Other aspects of the regulations included:
Skateboarding was prohibited around Market, Spring and Cannon streets, as well as most of the streets surrounding the Medical University of South Carolina.
Riders are not allowed to operate while intoxicated or while consuming alcohol.
Riders are not allowed to attach themselves to a moving vehicle.
Skateboarders must be visible from both a minimum distance of 500 feet and a height of at least 3 feet through the use of reflective lights, clothing or gear.

St. Philip Street is full of cars, bicyclists and skateboarders as they travel through Charleston Tuesday. The citys skateboard review committee has unveiled its package of reforms that it said would allow skateboarding to safely exist, or even coexist, with other forms of traffic on Charleston streets.×
College of Charleston freshman Logan Miccichi of James Island skateboards Tuesday down St. Philip Street. Its definitely dangerous to skate down main streets during the day, Miccichi said, but he argues that streets are empty at night and people should be able to skate down them.×

Garth Brooks Is a Grandpa
(NEW YORK) -- Garth Brooks is a grandfather.
The country star's middle daughter, 19-year-old August Anna Brooks, gave birth to a baby girl named Karalynn earlier this week in Oklahoma, ABC News has confirmed.
According to August Anna Brooks' Facebook page, the father is her boyfriend since 2011, Chance Michael Russell. She has also posted pictures of the new baby on the Facebook page.
"Our family would first like to thank everyone for their warm wishes and sweet celebration of Baby K's arrival," the "Friends in Low Places" singer, 51, said in statement. "Our children's lives have always been extremely private and they have been endlessly encouraged to be their own people. We have always wanted them to be individuals and NOT be known as 'someone's daughters.'"univ
Brooks, who is married to fellow country star Trisha Yearwood, also thanked the media for respecting his daughters' privacy through the years.
"I now ask that respect to please continue as this young family begins the greatest days of their lives," he said.
Before giving birth to her baby, August studied sociology at the University of Oklahoma and worked as a filing clerk at a law firm. She graduated high school in 2012.

Milwaukee Irish Arts shines light on shameful past with 'Eclipsed'
In February, Ireland finally came clean regarding some very dirty laundry, admitting its long-standing role in aiding and abetting the existence of the notorious Magdalene laundries.
Ostensibly asylums for the reform of "fallen" women, these facilities enabled the Catholic Church to turn a tidy profit by using women - petty criminals, unwed mothers or simply young women deemed overly flirtatious or beautiful, in a country that has long associated women with sex and sex with sin - as a slave labor pool. The last one wasn't closed until 1996. »Read Full Article(4)

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- SunEdison (SUNE) was falling 2.05% to $14.39 at 12:30 p.m. on Wednesday as the power plant owner and operator continued to decline from its announcement earlier this week that it would indefinitely close its polysilicon manufacturing facility in Merano, Italy, effective immediately.
The company had shuttered the facility in Dec. 2011 as part of its worldwide restructuring plan designed to cut costs and improve competitiveness. SunEdison explored numerous options since that time but ultimately decided "the identified cost reductions were not enough to sustain the economic viability of the plant in the current market environment," according to the press release.
The closing will affect approximately 200 employees and comes in conjunction with the closure over the next 12 months of the associated electronic grade TCS (trichlorosilane) operation, which employs approximately 35 people. The company expects these two closures to record approximately $37 million of fixed asset impairments for the year-ended Dec. 31, 2013.
SunEdison also announced its plan to consolidate its semiconductor crystal operations, which would include the transitioning of small diameter crystal activities in the company's St. Peters, Missouri facility to its other crystal facilities in Italy, Korea and Taiwan. This consolidation, which would take place over the next 12 months, would affect approximately 100 employees in St. Peters.

Contentious $43M Moruca bridge completed, due for inspection
Works to the $43 million Moruca Bridge are finally complete and engineers will soon perform an inspection to ensure that contractual specifications were met, Region One's Regional Executive Officer (REO) Nigel Fisher says.
It is not yet certain if the citizens are satisfied with the finished product, and calls to APNU MP Joseph Harmon and AFC MP Valerie Garrido-Lowe–who both visited the site earlier this year—to get their reactions on the development were unsuccessful.
Hardat Singh, the contractor who was awarded the contract to build the bridge in 2012, had been criticised by residents and observers for carrying out substandard work and for taking too long to complete the bridge.
The contract was awarded in 2012 and was supposed to be completed in a matter of months. Singh, though, says that several aspects of the structure's designs had to be changed. That, he argues, combined with inclement weather, is to blame for the extended delay. With regard to the quality of the bridge, he has long held that he disapproved of the bridge's design and that he pointed this out to the regional officials who contracted him to build the structure. He said, however, that his protests fell on deaf ears and that he was instructed to go ahead with the project in accordance with the exact design.
In January, the AFC released pictures of the bridge's submerged approach. In the picture, villagers were seen making their way to the bridge via a makeshift catwalk they built with some of Singh's materials. The AFC argued that the bridge was shabbily built and blamed Singh for what they saw as a botched job. Subsequently, APNU visited the area and made similar observations.
Singh says that the bridge was built to contractual specifications, although it was not quite complete. Some residents had raised concerns that the contractor, who is not a resident of Region One, was preparing to leave the region without properly completing the bridge after they observed that he was loading his equipment onto a boat.
However, Singh had said that the work was mostly complete, and that he had subcontracted a smaller firm to complete what little work remained. Inclement weather, however, delayed the completion of the work again.
Since January, Singh says that both he and the sub-contractor he hired have wrapped up all remaining works. He said that the approach to the bridge has been redone. This was necessary since residents started moving their vehicles, and walking over the concrete structure before it had properly settled. He also said that additional sand was dumped to build up the areas around the approach. He opined that submersion of a section of the approach, under the current designs, might be an ongoing problem since the area sees frequent heavy rains.
As a result, all required work has been completed, he told Stabroek News last week, and is awaiting verification. Fisher confirmed to this newspaper that the bridge is now complete, and he disclosed that engineers will arrive in Region One shortly to verify that Singh completed the bridge according to the contractual specifications.

John Brandon Kitchens, 27, of 3097 Parrish Road, held the victims at gunpoint and stole a pocketbook, according to a Richmond County sheriffs report.
One of the victims said that he and his 72-year-old wife gave Mr. Kitchens a ride home from their church because they knew his mother and family, the report said. As they neared Brendell Drive at Brians Way, Mr. Kitchens pointed a handgun at the womans neck and stole the purse, the report said.
