True, it's the God of Thunder's name in the title of the new Marvel superhero adventure "Thor: The Dark World," but there's no question the film series -- including the first "Thor" and "The Avengers" -- would be far from complete without Thor's brother, Loki, as so brilliantly realized by actor Tom Hiddleston.
In the three films he's played Loki, Hiddleston has no doubt redefined the meaning of movie villainy, mostly because you can't peg him as a villain you outright hate, or one that you loveto hate.
In fact, in a recent interview with the diverse British actor, I remarked how Loki is a rare villain that you can't help but love the whole time and enjoy watching because of the jovial air of complexity he brings to the role.
"I feel so thrilled and pleased to hear you say that, because he is a villain, but he's also one with redeeming qualities," Hiddleston said. "I always hoped to build a character like that -- a character who was complex and sympathetic, even in the most distorted, twisted way. I wanted him to be somebody whose motivations you could understand."
And then there's the comic villainy, which is essential because having fun is literally part of Loki's description, the actor said.
"It's been great to enhance and define his playfulness," Hiddleston explained. "He's the God of Mischief and if you look up 'mischief' in the dictionary, it's an inclination to playfulness. Being an entertainer is his raison d'etre (reason for existence). He's there to provoke, tease and create chaos. He's fun to watch."
Opening in theaters Friday in 2D, 3D and on IMAX screens, "Thor: The Dark World" takes place after the events of "The Avengers." Returned to Asgard by Thor (Chris Hemsworth) after his attempt to rule mankind on Earth, Loki is sentenced to serve out the rest of his life in prison by his estranged father, Odin (Anthony Hopkins).
But when a tragedy befalls the brothers, and a threat by their adversaries the Dark Elves and their leader, Malekith (Christopher Eccleston), threatens to destroy Asgard, Thor has no choice but to enlist the aid of Loki and free him from the force field that imprisons him. It's all part of an elaborate plan that even Odin doesn't know about, a plan that's constantly in jeopardy because Thor knows in his heart that he'll never be able to fully trust his scheming sibling.
Loki has had an interesting arc rarely afforded to a character in any set of films, much less one in the Marvel movie universe. In the first "Thor," he played a reluctant bad guy insanely jealous of his brother's birthright to ascend to the throne; while "The Avengers" found him an out-and-out villain who wanted to rule his own kingdom by dominating the citizens of Earth.
But in "Thor: The Dark World," Loki finds himself in a unique position. Loki now holds sway over the brother he was once jealous of because Thor needs him now to save the future of kingdom he's to inherit.
"It's a new twist and a new dynamic," Hiddleston said. "So to get the chance to come back and put all of my ingredients into one cocktail for Loki -- his vulnerability, his broken heart which has been damaged more, his charm, his elegance and playfulness -- and mix that all up, has been fantastic. Then I get to stand side-by-side with Chris Hemsworth and play out that fractured relationship. It yielded so much drama and so much comedy. I really hope it's a new iteration of both characters that will please the audience."
Hiddleston said working on "Thor: The Dark World" was especially fun because of the wonderful working relationship he's developed with Hemsworth.
"There's so much trust between me and Chris now. We've known each other for five years and we've ridden this wild ride known as the Marvel universe together," Hiddleston said.
Making connections
While Hiddleston has taken his love for playing Loki to the maximum on-screen, he's even gone so far as to dress up as the character for conventions and poses for dynamic pictures with fans off-screen. On top of that, he's contributed time to visiting economically developing countries in an effort to bring happiness to children in downtrodden regions.
Hiddleston says his extra efforts all come from his heart. It's his way of giving back after being blessed with so many extraordinary opportunities.
"We all live on the same planet, you know? It's that simple," Hiddleston said. "The reason I'm an actor is because I always wanted to make a connection. I think perhaps it's because there were moments when I was a young adult and I felt quite lonely, and art, theater and film connected me to people. It opened me up. It gave me something. I always want to give back and include people in what I do. I get enormous pleasure out of connecting with people."
Since the first "Thor," Hiddleston has also had the unique pleasure of connection with people through the wonderful world of toys as a Loki action figure, something that makes him giddy with pleasure.
Whether it be the smaller Loki figures produced by Hasbro or the 12-inch, collector's edition of the God of Mischief by Hot Toys that he's even posed for pictures with (the figure is so realistic it's scary), the boy who grew up loving science fiction movies is still very much alive in the 32-year-old actor.
"I still can't get used to it, honestly," Hiddleston said, enthusiastically. "If I could only go back in time and show my younger self that one day he'd have an action figure -- it still blows my mind."

Protecting Your Vision and Hearing
Shooting a firearm can cause immediate and permanent hearing loss and can damage your vision.
- When shooting any firearm, always wear properly fitting ear protection. For target practice, use an earplug or earmuff (or both) with a high Noise Reduction Rating (NRR). When hunting, use electronic or non-linear devices that allow normal or even enhanced hearing but block damaging levels of sound. For more information, visit the National Hearing Conservation Association website.
- Always wear suitable eye protection, such as shooting glasses with high-impact lenses, to prevent injury from a ruptured shell or firearm malfunction. Wear eye protection also whenever disassembling or cleaning a handgun.

Woman finds dead kitten inside sausage
'Lucky' kitten now worshipped
A woman in Thailand found the body of a young kitten inside a foot-long sausage while eating dinner with her family.
Krod Yotchomrang, 52, told reporters that she bought some sausages from a local market, according to Bangkokpost.com. After consuming some of the sausage, she noticed "what looked like a small cat" inside, she stated. The kitten had eyes, a nose and even hair.
Yotchomrang determined that the kitten was good luck and she made a small shrine for it in her home, where neighbors and strangers have come to worship it. Some friends won money on the lottery afterwards.
Local police said Public Health officials had begun an investigation to find out if the local sausage maker was mixing cat meat with pork, or if it was an isolated incident.

Makes 4 servings
Treat your family to a special brunch or lunch. And be sure to serve the toast with pure maple syrup, which will take this treat a notch from maple-flavored pancake syrup. If you'd like, substitute croissants or challah for the cinnamon-raisin bread.
4 eggs
3 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon sugar
8 slices cinnamon-raisin bread
½ cup cream cheese spread
16 thin slices deli honey-baked ham
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Pure maple syrup as needed
Beat the eggs lightly in a 9-inch pie plate or flat-bottomed shallow bowl. Stir in the milk and sugar.
For each serving, spread one side of a bread slice with 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese and top with 4 ham slices. (If the ham slices are large, tuck them to fit inside the bread.) Spread another slice with 1 tablespoon cream cheese, cover the sandwich spread-side down, and lightly press.
Dip both sides of each sandwich into the egg mixture.
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook for 2 minutes per side or until golden brown.

RCR at "The Desert Jewel" ... Team owner Richard Childress has four victories at Phoenix International Raceway, ranking him third on the all-time car owner victories list at the Avondale, Ariz.,-based facility.

Prior to that, Dale Earnhardt won the Checker 500 on Nov. 4, 1990. In 83 races at PIR, the Welcome, N.C.-based organization boasts 16 top-five and 35 top-10 finishes.

In last Sunday's Daytona 500, all four RCR drivers fell victim to accidents throughout the 200-lap event with Paul Menard finishing 20th, Jeff Burton 30th, Austin Dillon 31st and Harvick 42nd. Harvick was able to win his third Sprint Unlimited exhibition race and also picked up the victory in the first Budweiser Duel 150-mile qualifying race.
Get to the Points ... RCR's three full time Sprint Cup Series drivers rank 20th (Paul Menard), 28th (Jeff Burton) and 38th (Kevin Harvick) in the driver championship point standings heading into this weekend's race at Phoenix International Raceway.

Paul Menard
No. 27 Serta/Menards Chevrolet SS
Event Preview Fact Sheet
This Week's Serta/Menards Chevrolet ... Paul Menard will pilot chassis No. 341 at Phoenix International Raceway (PIR) this weekend. This No. 27 Chevrolet SS previously ran last season during the fall race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, bringing home a 12th-place finish.
PIR Stats ... Menard has 12 starts at the one-mile oval. His best start of seventh came in both 2009 and 2012 and his best finish of ninth came in both 2011 and 2012. The Wisconsin native has completed 3,795 of 3,818 laps attempted (99.4 percent) at the Avondale, Ariz., track.
About Serta ...Serta will adorn the hood of Menard's RCR Chevrolet SS this weekend at PIR. Serta is proud to be the manufacturer of the World's Best Mattress™. Their commitment to quality has made them a leader in the industry, and they look forward to helping you find the right mattress so you can get a better night's sleep for years to come. For more information on Serta visit, www.serta.com.
Race Rewind ... In his last appearance at PIR, Menard started the No. 27 Chevrolet from the seventh position and brought home a top-10 finish, crossing the stripe in ninth.
Road Trip ... Menard and several members of the No. 27 crew will be staying out west between the PIR and Las Vegas Motor Speedway races to go on a ski trip in Utah. The Wisconsin native is an avid skier and is excited to hit the slopes with his team.
Menard's Thoughts on Racing at Phoenix International Raceway:
"We tested at Phoenix (International Raceway) last fall with the new Gen-6 car and it drove really well. I'm looking forward to going to Phoenix, it's a fun little short-track that can produce some exciting racing. The car's aero package doesn't mean a whole lot at there, so regardless of how the new car runs, it's going to be a good race. Phoenix is one of my favorite tracks and since the new surface is starting to age, the cars are beginning to get pretty racy again. We ran really well at Phoenix last fall, so hopefully we can get a good finish in the Serta/Menards Chevrolet this weekend."
Kevin Harvick
No. 29 Jimmy John's Chevrolet SS
Event Preview Fact Sheet
This Week's Jimmy John's Chevrolet at Phoenix International Raceway ... Kevin Harvick will pilot chassis No. 383 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stable in the Phoenix 500. This is the same Chevrolet the Bakersfield, Calif., native drove to Victory Lane at Phoenix International Raceway last November.
Freaky Good at Phoenix ... Sunday's 312-lap event will mark Harvick's 21st start at the one-mile tri-oval. Since 2001, the RCR veteran driver has collected three victories (both events in 2006 and November 2011), six top-five and 10 top-10 finishes. Harvick holds a 19th-place average starting position, coupled with a 12.8 average finishing position and has led 420 laps.
Growing Freaky Fast ... Jimmy John's, known for fresh, quality products and freaky fast service, opened an additional 231 stores in 2012 and was recognized by the Nation's restaurant News as the second Fastest Growing Chain in the U.S. The gourmet sandwich shop has several locations near the Avondale, Ariz.,-based track, including one less than three miles away, located at 10110 W. McDowell Rd. Visit www.jimmyjohns.com to view the full Jimmy John's menu, find your nearest location and order online, or download the Jimmy John's mobile application for additional Freaky Fast service.
2012 Race Rewind ... Although Harvick led the most laps in the Sprint Cup Series event at PIR last March and mounted a charge in the closing circuits to take the victory, his No. 29 Chevrolet ran out of fuel coming to the white flag, leaving him to settle for the runner-up finish.
You've won races on both the old and new Phoenix International Raceway. What do you like about the new configuration that is different since the repave?
"They did a great job of taking all aspects of what to do to the race track to try and make it better. First off, they took in the fan's sight, so they can see the whole race track. Second, they made a unique back straightaway to go through. The racing has been really good. The track has done a great job in preparing the race track, with rubber on the race track and keeping the track clean. Washing it off when it needs to be washed off and doing the things they need to do to prepare the race track to be right."
You're going back to Phoenix International Raceway after winning last November. Are you heading into this race weekend with more confidence than usual?
"I've been on both sides. Sometimes you go back after winning a race and you run terrible, other times you go back and run well. This year we have a new car and a lot of new things to deal with, you to have an open mind on how to approach the weekend. Obviously, running the NASCAR Nationwide Series race will help by providing a little extra track time, but Phoenix (International Raceway) was a good track for us last year. We finished first and second in the two races last season, so we're going back expecting that we'll run just as well."
Jeff Burton
No. 31 Cheerios Chevrolet SS
Event Preview Fact Sheet
This Week's No. 31 Cheerios Chevrolet SS ... Jeff Burton will race chassis No. 392 this weekend at Phoenix International Raceway. This No. 31 Chevrolet was utilized three times during the 2012 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season at Kentucky Speedway in June and both Dover International Speedway races in June and September.
Burton in the Desert ... Burton has 27 starts at PIR with two wins (2000 and 2001), seven top-five and 13 top-10 finishes. He has also led 222 laps at the one-mile facility.
Black and Yellow ... The iconic General Mills brand Cheerios returns to the track this weekend as the primary sponsor on Burton's No. 31 Chevrolet SS. America's No.1 cereal franchise will bring its fan-favorite yellow and black paint scheme to these additional races in 2013: Bristol Motor Speedway (March 17), Charlotte Motor Speedway (May 26), Dover International Speedway (June 2), Michigan International Speedway (August 18) and New Hampshire Motor Speedway (September 22). General Mills has roots as a NASCAR sponsor for more than 15 years and began its partnership with RCR in 2008 with Cheerios brand as the primary sponsor of the No. 33 Sprint Cup Series team. The program moved to the No. 31 team as a co-primary sponsor for the 2012 Sprint Cup Series season.
Race Rewind 2012 ... After running in the top 15 for 254 of the first 291 laps in last year's Sprint Cup Series race at PIR, Burton's No. 31 Wheaties Chevrolet suffered engine problems and was forced to retire early relegating the RCR driver to a 33rd-place finish.
Have drivers adjusted to the repave changes at Phoenix International Raceway?
"I think all drivers have become accustomed to it. It is different now because when you get there and unload, the track has no grip and you have to pace yourself in practice. The track gets better throughout the weekend and it changes all weekend long. A lot of the time, the guys who don't look so good in practice are the ones who win the race because the track changes so much. Understanding the way it is going to change is going to be most important. It's hard to know how it is going to change."

Brian Scott
No. 2 Shore Lodge Chevrolet Camaro
Event Preview Fact Sheet
This Week's Shore Lodge Chevrolet at Richmond International Raceway ... Brian Scott will pilot chassis No. 101 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Nationwide Series stable in Friday evening's Richmond 250. This chassis last saw track action earlier this season at Phoenix International Raceway where Scott earned a ninth-place finish. Additionally, this workhorse claimed three wins (Phoenix International Raceway, Bristol Motor Speedway and Iowa Speedway) and two pole awards (Iowa Speedway) in the 2012 season.
RIR History ... The 25-year old Chevrolet driver has seven previous Nationwide Series starts at Richmond International Raceway. He has two top-10 starts and one top-10 finish to his credit, with his best starting spot of third coming in the spring 2009 event.
Point Out the Points ... Coming off an 11th-place finish at Texas Motor Speedway, Scott is tied for fourth in the Nationwide Series driver championship point standings just nine markers out of first.
Best Career Start ... After the first six Nationwide Series events of 2013, Scott is experiencing the strongest start of a season in his career. The Boise, Idaho native boasts five top-10 finishes, eight laps led, an average finishing spot of ninth and is currently tied for fourth in series driver point standings.
Lodging in Idaho ... Shore Lodge will serve as primary sponsor for Scott and the No. 2 team this weekend at Richmond International Raceway. Set on the southern shore of Payette Lake in McCall, Idaho, four seasons of adventure await at this idyllic location. A family favorite since 1948, the travel destination allows guests to enjoy the spectacular views, friendly service and generous accommodations at the lake front resort. Shore Lodge serves as the perfect mixture of adventure and luxury featuring 26 spa adventures, fitness studio, golf privileges at Whitetail Club, jet skiing, and a private beach for guests.
Socially Speaking ... Follow Shore Lodge on twitter @ShoreLodgeIdaho and Facebook at facebook.com/shorelodge.
Tell us what you're looking forward to this Friday at Richmond International Raceway: "I'm excited for Richmond (International Raceway), I've always had mixed results at the track. I like the position we're at with this No. 2 team and their successes on short tracks. I'm looking forward to getting to Richmond; we have a little extra practice time to get our Camaro tuned in to what we need for Friday night's race."
Richmond International Raceway is a short track, but drives differently than a Bristol Motor Speedway or Iowa Speedway, how so?" Richmond (International Raceway) is an old surface which causes the tires to wear a lot during a run. The exit going into turn two is really narrow so there isn't a lot of room for error. For me that's the most challenging part of the race track, getting the car to turn really well coming off of turn two. Overall, I think that really sets this track apart from a lot of other places we compete."

This Week's AdvoCare Chevrolet at Richmond International Raceway ... Austin Dillon will pilot Chassis No. 125 in the Richmond 250 at Richmond International Raceway. This is the same Chevrolet Camaro that Dillon drove to a sixth-place finish, after starting sixth, at Phoenix International Raceway in March.
Dillon at Richmond International Raceway ... In three previous Nationwide Series appearances at Richmond International Raceway, Dillon has earned two top-10 finishes and led 14 laps at the 0.75-mile track. In his most recent appearance at the track (September 2012), he started second and led 14 laps despite struggling with a tight-handling condition in the center of the corners, ultimately finishing sixth.
Did you know ... Dillon made his Nationwide Series debut at Richmond International Raceway in September 2008, driving the No. 21 Childress Institute for Pediatric Trauma Chevrolet to a 26th-place finish after starting from the 31st position.
Get to the Points ... Dillon ranks third in the 2013 Nationwide Series driver championship point standings, trailing current leader Sam Hornish, Jr. by eight points.
Spark your Engines ... Dillon and the RCR team will sport the colors of award-winning premier health and wellness company AdvoCare on the No. 3 Chevrolet at Richmond International Raceway. AdvoCare offers nutrition, weight loss, energy and sports performance products of the highest quality developed through comprehensive research and backed by a Scientific and Medical Advisory Board. Dillon trains with AdvoCare products throughout the week and is a distributor as well. For more information about Dillon's favorite products, including Spark, Rehydrate, meal replacement bars and Post-Workout Recovery, visit http://www.AdvoCare.com.
AdvoCare Supporting the Childress Institute for Pediatric Trauma ... If Dillon wins this weekend's Nationwide Series race at Richmond International Raceway, AdvoCare will make a $5,000 donation to the Childress Institute for Pediatric Trauma. The health and wellness company will pledge $2,000 to CIPT for a top-five finish and $1,000 for a top-10 finish. So far this season, the No. 3 team has raised $6,000 towards the cause. Several members of the Richard Childress Racing Team visited Brenner's Childrens Hospital at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem, N.C. to great patients this week as part of their affiliation with CIPT. The Childress Institute invests resources in research, education and awareness to improve the treatment for critically injured children in the U.S. and AdvoCare's generous donations are aimed at helping to raise awareness for pediatric trauma, the No. 1 killer of children in America. You can help save the lives of injured children by making a contribution to the Childress Institute in two ways: donate $33 in honor of Dillon via his website, or text WIN to 80077 to make a $10 donation.
Make a Difference ... With the help of Drive4COPD, Dillon and his younger brother Ty are taking part in NASCAR's Race to Green campaign, a fully-integrated and massive national tree planting initiative designed to engage the NASCAR industry and excite fans. The month-long initiative focuses heavily on sustainability programs that NASCAR, the industry and a wide range of partners have in place to help reduce the sport's carbon footprint. COPD is helping to reduce the sport's footprint by donating five trees for each lap the Dillon brothers lead during the month of April.
How Many Candles ... Dillon will celebrate his 23rd birthday on Saturday, April 27.
Off Weekend ... During the Nationwide Series off week, Dillon participated in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Goodyear Tire Test at Daytona International Speedway, driving the No. 33 Chevrolet SS.
What do you think about Richmond International Raceway? "One of the best things about Richmond International Raceway is that it's similar to Iowa Speedway, a track where I have logged a lot of laps. It's a fun track because you really slide around. You've really got to use the brakes at Richmond International Raceway. You don't really touch the brakes much at mile-and-a-half long tracks, but braking is very important at a track like Richmond. Getting off the corner, having forward bite, and being able to adjust your car to make it really good for longer runs and then being able to go at the end when there is a late race caution are needed. I think we have a good package for Phoenix International Raceway, Iowa Speedway, Richmond International Raceway and a lot of the short tracks, so I am excited to get there and do some night racing."
Kevin Harvick
No. 33 Hungry-Man Chevrolet Camaro
Event Preview Fact Sheet
This Week's Hungry-Man Chevrolet at Richmond International Raceway ... Kevin Harvick will pilot Chassis No. 127 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Nationwide Series stable in the 250-mile event at Richmond International Raceway. This is a new Chevrolet for the No. 33 team and will make its first competitive laps this weekend at the 0.75-mile track.
Track Master ... Friday night's 250-lap event at Richmond International Raceway marks Harvick's 24th Nationwide Series start at the track. Since 2000, the two-time series champion has picked up six wins (May 2003, September 2005, May and September 2006, September 2010 and September 2012), three pole awards (September 2003, September 2010 and May 2012), 15 top-five and 18 top-10 finishes. Harvick holds an 8.3 average starting position, an average finishing position of seventh, has completed 99.9 percent (5,756 of 5,763) of the laps contested and is credited with 1,089 laps led.
Enjoy the Tastes of Victory ... Armour® and Hungry-Man® are giving fans an opportunity to enjoy the tastes of victory and win a custom designed 2013 Chevrolet Camaro featuring Harvick's No. 33 Armour®/Hungry-Man® paint scheme.

The 37-year-old driver will chat with ESPN personalities during the race and provide viewers a unique look from the driver's seat. Front tire carrier, Austin Craven, will also participate in the live coverage by wearing a helmet camera to give viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the team's pit stops.
Double Duty ... In addition to driving the No. 33 Hungry-Man Chevrolet Camaro Friday night, Harvick will also pilot the No. 29 Bell Helicopter Chevrolet SS in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series event on Saturday evening. This race is scheduled to air live FOX at 7 p.m. Eastern Time, along with the Motor Racing Network and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.
2012 Race Rewind ... After starting from the pole position and dominating the first half of the Virginia 529 College Savings 250, Harvick and the No. 33 Fast Fixin' team battled a tight-handling condition to capture a third-place finish at Richmond International Raceway.
Share your thoughts on running the NASCAR Nationwide Series event at a track where you have been so successful in the past: "We've won a lot of races at Richmond International Raceway in both the Nationwide and Sprint Cup Series, so I'm really excited to get into the Hungry-Man Camaro Friday night. Hopefully, we can run a little better than we have so far this season, in that particular car, and pick up another win."

For his debut at Blaffer Art Museum, the artist�s first solo museum exhibition, Coolquitt will recombine 60 discrete sculptures and tableaux made between 2006 and 2011 into a site-specific installation which, in its singularity and temporariness, reflects on the condition of the gallery space as a codified place of encounter for people and works of art. The exhibition will also include pieces that occupy a hybrid position between autonomous artworks by Coolquitt and what the artist calls somebody-mades and in-betweens. Somebody-mades are assemblages of objects that are presented just as the artist found them in the streets, while in-betweens combine such found assemblages with interventions of his own. Presented alongside and interspersed with his own work, these elements serve to further complicate the relationship between the contexts of creation and reception, artist and audience, and blur the boundaries between art and life. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated monograph co-published by Blaffer Art Museum and University of Texas Press with contributions by Rachel Hooper, Dan Fox, Matthew Higgs, and Jan Tumlir.

The student nurse association is conducting a fundraiser for the Pink Hearts, an organization that gives free wigs to children and women with cancer. This organization also provides transportation for cancer patients who need rides to their doctor appointments, and are located in Gulfport. The students are selling raffle tickets for $5.00 each for a "pink heart" quilt. The quilt was donated by the Jubilee Quilt Guild located here, in Poplarville. The quilt is unique: each square was completed by a member of their Guild. One of the squares, with an angel, was completed by a lady who subsequently died with cancer. Another square was completed by a lady who was diagnosed with cancer while she was making the square! All proceeds will go to the Pink Hearts.

The young are the restlessApril 08,2013The surge of generational change continues in this country, altering the cultural landscape with a speed and intensity that has rarely — if ever — been seen before.
The latest remarkable change concerns the decriminalization of the use of marijuana. A poll released Thursday by the Pew Research Center found that for the first time more Americans support legalizing marijuana than oppose it.
It was rather unsurprising that more young people would support the move, but it was striking how quickly they adopted a more liberal position. About seven years ago, millennials (defined by Pew as people born in 1981 or later), Generation Xers (those born between 1965 and 1980) and baby boomers (those born between 1946 and 1964) shared the same view on marijuana: Only about a third thought it should be legalized. Since then, the share of millennials supporting its legalization has risen more than 90 percent. Meanwhile, the number of legalization supporters in Generation X and among the baby boomers has risen by no more than 60 percent.
The millennial generation is the generation of change. Their views on a broad range of policy issues are so different from older Americans' perspectives that they are likely to reshape the political dialogue faster than the political class can catch up.
I surveyed the past six months of Pew and Gallup polls, to better understand the portrait of a generation bent on rapid change — even if that means standing alone.
On gay marriage: Much has been made of the growing acceptance of same-sex marriage in this country, but a Pew poll last month found that the change is driven mainly by millennials. Theirs was the only generation in which a majority (70 percent) supported same-sex marriage, and theirs was the only generation even more likely to be in favor of it in 2013 than in 2012. For comparison, support for same-sex marriage among Generation X is the same in 2013 as it was in 2001 (49 percent). Among millennials, however, support for gay marriage is up 40 percent since 2003, the first year they were included in the survey.
Some of this no doubt is the result of younger adults having more exposure to people who openly identify as LGBT. According to an October Gallup poll, young adults between 18 and 30 were at least twice as likely to identify as LGBT than any other age group.
But this doesn't necessarily mean that millennials overwhelmingly agree, on a moral level, with same-sex relationships. In fact a survey released last year by the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace and World Affairs at Georgetown University in conjunction with the Public Religion Research Institute found that "Millennials are nearly evenly divided over whether sex between two adults of the same gender is morally acceptable."
On gun control: According to a February Gallup report, Americans ages 18 to 29 are the least likely to own guns, with just 20 percent saying that they do. That is well under the national average of 30 percent of Americans who own guns.
And in a Pew poll taken shortly after the Newtown shootings, younger Americans were the most likely to say that gun control was a bigger concern in this country than protecting the right to own a gun. (Younger respondents barely edged out seniors with this sentiment.)
In fact, a Gallup poll found that the percentage of those 18 to 34 years old saying they want the nation's gun laws and policies to be stricter doubled from January 2012 to 2013. No other age group saw such a large increase.
It is remarkable that young people's opinions shifted so dramatically, especially since a December Pew poll found that young adults under 30 were the least likely to believe that the recent shootings in Newtown, Conn., reflect broader problems in American society. This age group was, in fact, the most likely to believe that such shootings are simply the isolated acts of troubled individuals.
Young people also are the least religious (more than a quarter specify no religion when asked), and they are an increasingly diverse group of voters. Fifty-eight percent of voters under 30 were white non-Hispanic in 2012, down from 74 percent in 2000. Like it or not, younger Americans are thirsty for change that lines up with their more liberal cultural worldview.
Advantage Democrats.

About Stick Vacuums
Stick vacuum cleaners are lightweight machines that help maintain the cleanliness of your home. Great for quick and even some heavier-duty clean-up jobs, stick vacuums are ideal for smaller living spaces since they take up little storage space.
Cordless stick vacuums are especially helpful around the house because you don't have to worry about cord reach, which lends itself to greater portability. It's important to keep in mind that cordless stick vacuums run on batteries, and during prolonged use, the power may run down but charge times are typically short for these handy machines.
There are many upright stick vacuums to choose from at Ace. For help finding a stick vacuum to suit your home cleaning needs, visit your local Ace or for more information check out our vacuum cleaner guide.

Southbound lanes of Interstate 71 finally reopened this morning at Ft. Washington Way, more than 15 hours after a crash.
The lanes had been closed after a truck crash just after 5 p.m. Wednesday.
An officer on scene says the truck spilled honey onto the roadway, making for a difficult cleanup.
Two street sweeper trucks helped remove the mess, while crews put down absorbent material that allowed cars to drive over whatever couldn't be picked up.
The lanes reopened at about 8:15 a.m.

I Do Not Covet Cliff Lee for the Angels
The coveting of Cliff Lee has been an understandable thing on many blogs so I just thought I'd put that out there. I'm not saying that he's not an amazing pitcher. Though I will not praise him to the positively silly degree that the post season announcers did, he is definitely one of the best pitchers currently in baseball. He is one of these pitchers, and seemingly one of those teammates, who would be an asset to any team's starting rotation.
But asset though he may be, unless we all somehow walk through the backstop into a magical baseball wonderland where players are always treated fairly even without a contract, umpires have the perfect angle to make the call on every play and Cliff Lee is willing to come to the Angels and *poof* just take over Scott Kazmir's contract while Kaz begins an epic Tolkein-esque quest in search of his lost slider, I don't want him for the Angels. Our starting rotation was one of our strengths this season – once you ignore the aberration that was April and, unfortunately Kaz' difficulties. If everyone stays healthy in 2011 -and the Angels don't make any abysmally stupid decisions regarding Weaver's arbitration – we will have two aces in Weaver and Haren and two additional excellent starters in Pineiro and Santana (Be the good Santana please! You are not a Star Trek movie. We don't need even and odd number rules about you.). If Kaz is able to work things out in the offseason – and I really hope he is but I'm not holding my breath – then we'll have a great 5th starter too. If not we do have a few options that keep this from being a catastrophic need.
What the Angels need is Kendry back healthy and ready to play at the level to which we have all become accustomed – and to all reports so far, he's looking like his old self, yay! We need another outfielder and a third baseman, and we need them both to have big or, barring that, consistent bats. The minor league call ups in the Angels' bullpen were really something special this year and helped shore up our reliever woes at lot towards the end of the season, but an additional, reliable reliever with some veteran status wouldn't hurt and then there is the closing situation. Myself, I like Walden for the position. I think he showed some promise there in September. But if those who know far more than I disagree and Rodney isn't performing any better, then this will need to be addressed as well.
This is the Angels real needs list and it's long and expensive, so I am glad Tony Reagins hasn't been making any trips to Arkansas this fall and doesn't appear to have any planned for the future. Angels fans often joke that Tony is some sort of trade and player acquisition ninja, that you'll rarely, if ever, see one of his deals coming until it's negotiated, signed and everyone involved is ready for the press conference. Torii Hunter. Del Taco. Need I say more? So I suppose anything is possible. But I certainly hope this one is as far off the radar as it appears to be. Lee is wonderful, but leave him to the Yankees and Rangers to duke it out over. They have a lot less holes to shore up in the off season than the Angels do.
5 Comments
I agree. Its like putting the whole game of baseball onto one pitchers hands when its about a whole lot more than that. Angels are about the whole game, small games and not highlight reels. That's what got them so many division titles in the first place when they all played together and not looking for the big Morales finish.
If we can't bring the veterans and the young talent together and perform together like we did previously, then bringing in a "headline arm" won't make any difference.
I agree that if your guys already have a solid starting rotation then why would you need to pay big bucks for Lee, who is the best free agent pitcher out there. I do keep hearing the Angels (or at least Hunter) have been recruiting Carl Crawford though. He would be a sweet Christmas present.
Angels tend to not go for the flash in situations like these. I doubt they will here.
Instead of disturbing a pretty good starting rotation why not just build the back end of the game forward.
With the whispers that Los Angeles wants Rafael Soriano I can tell you from experience they would get a solid player who loves to close and announces his presence with authority.
Both Carl Crawford and Soriano, better known in Tampa Bay as MFIKY (Mother Fragger I Kill You) for his stares in at hitters will cost a nice bankload of money…But the pair do come with future All Star promise and great character for the clubhouse.
Rays Renegade
Heath – Here's to hoping the Angels can do just that and make 2010 no more than a strange aberration in the team records.
Jane – Crawford really would be a sweet Christmas present🙂. Torii has been talking a lot about recruiting Crawford and made a recent joke about inviting him out to California to eat at Del Taco. I really do hope it's more than just talk but, like Swisher, Torii also talks all the time so who knows. *fingers crossed*
Jeff – I agree. I don't think it's likely at all. But I see Cliff Lee talk all over the place including Halos Heaven so I figured I would throw my nickel (2-cents adjusted for inflation) out there.
Rays Renegade – I have heard those whispers too, as much as any just plain fan can at least, and sure hope they are more than just whispers. Crawford and Soriano would indeed be expensive together but I certainly agree they would be more than worth it. I didn't know they called Soriano MFIKY. I think that's awesome!

First comes love, then comes marriage and then comes a woman with a baby carriage.
The belief that that's what women want has long been held by many. But many women are choosing to embrace love without marriage.
Bonnie Eslinger is one of those women.
"There's no piece of paper that is necessary if you have it in your head and heart to spend the rest of your lives together," Eslinger says. "Marriage is not necessary for emotional or intelligent commitment."
She apparently is part of an altar-avoiding trend. According to U.S. Census data, in 2000, 44 percent of American adults were unmarried. In 1970 the number was 36 percent, in 1980 it was 39 percent and in 1990 it was 41 percent.
Eslinger says that the wedding industry is a billion-dollar business of happily-ever-after that is "almost mythical."
"I don't need to change my name, and the whole giving away (the bride) -- what is the point of it?" Eslinger asks.
Although Eslinger does not plan to marry her partner of four years, Jeff, they had a ceremony in July to reaffirm their love for each other.
They also have purchased a home together, and the financial responsibilities are a 50/50 split. She says they have also had frank conversations about the responsibilities of owning a home without being married.
Destructive Myths
In their book "Why Women Shouldn't Marry: Being Single By Choice," Cynthia and Hillary Smith, a mother-daughter duo, discuss several reasons women are choosing to remain unmarried.
The book deals with young women who no longer need the prestige of a "good marriage" because of their own fulfilling careers; widows who say never again to laundering dirty socks and the possibility of becoming a nurse to a husband; and divorced women who don't want to deal with potential problems of remarrying with kids.
Cynthia Smith says her book is also a tool to empower women to know that they can be happy no matter what their status.
In one chapter, the book deals with the soul mate checklist.
The list says that some women are looking for a man to be a companion, a best friend, someone to talk to and support her, someone who is always there and ready to commit to her, someone who always puts the woman first and who loves her for who she is.
Smith said many women buy into the impossible quest of finding someone perfect who matches those traits.
"The soul mate myth is destructive because it will keep you from forming authentic relationships that have a chance to thrive instead of fail," the Smiths write. "Don't marry because you think you have found your soul mate; it is bound to buckle under the unbearable weight of expected perfection."
Smith, who was married for 35 years before her husband died, said many women want their spouses to be everything to them. She says women should depend more on their network of friends and family members.
That way, if her partner does not want to go to the ballet, she can take a friend, she said.
"It seems to me that people are looking for a clone," she said. "'He supports me. He believes in me.' Marriage can't be me, me, me. What does he get out of it?"
Smith said she and her daughter are not against marrying. They are against marrying for the wrong reasons.
"Nowadays, it doesn't have to be that (women) want to marry a doctor ? because she is the doctor," Smith said.
What Is Key To Happiness?
Zandria Marcuson of Alexandria, Va., says many women believe that marriage will lead to happiness because people see it as the logical next step.
"Have fun in your 20s, get a good job, get married, have a family. That path will make some women happy, but for others it won't," she says.

Entering into adulthood means many things, but one thing really stands out—your friends start to get married. That being the case, in the past few months I've been to two weddings. The first was in late August and was for my good friend and neighbor Raye Levine (I was also a bridesmaid). The second, in October, was my boyfriend's sister, Megan Gorzynski. These weddings were not only beautiful but also had that something special, something I'll call the "little touches." Even though both women now live in other places, they returned home to take advantage of all that our area has to offer, from the farms to the river.
Farm-fresh food
Megan's wedding reception was held at the Settler's Inn in Hawley, PA. Megan's father is John Gorzynski of Gorzynski Ornery Farm in Cochecton Center, NY, which sells its veggies and fruit to Settlers, and so they have had a long-standing relationship with the inn. All the food at the reception was provided by the Gorzynski farm and was cooked by the Settler's chefs. This included greens, mashed potatoes and an assortment of pork that was from the little piggies that were raised on the farm. Some of the food was displayed in wooden crates that have been a part of the farm for many years. To say the least, it was delicious, and I totally pigged out (pun intended).
Homemade wedding favors
The wedding favors at Megan's wedding were jars of jam homemade by her mom, Sue. Days before the wedding, we formed an assembly line of sorts at the Gorzynski home and dressed up the jars by adding square pieces of fabric to the top, tied down with ribbon. Then, a tiny toy pig was glued on top, along with a tag that said, "Thank you for jammin' with Eric and Megan Schwab." These provided a funny and special touch for the guests to take home.
Special ceremony space
Raye's wedding was held at her family's country home in Milanville, PA. (They live in Brooklyn). The house is a converted barn and is nothing short of breathtaking. The Barn, as we call it, is a modern, open space that looks out onto the river valley. Sunflowers from the groom's mother's farm lined the beams, and guests stood along the side on hardwood floors (no shoes, please) as Raye walked down the makeshift aisle in her Sophia Kokosalaki dress and stood with her husband on a platform that made it look like they were floating among the trees. The bridesmaids wore black dresses of their own choosing and hand-dyed flower wreaths in their hair. It was a sight to behold. The reception was in a large tent nestled into the field across the road from The Barn. The dinner was from Early Bird Cookery, and the band provided swinging music to which guests danced into the night.
The vows
As participants/witnesses, the bride and groom wanted each guest to "sign-off" on the marriage, so they created an art piece and built a table in which it was encased. It was a slab of (near-cured) ultra cal (plaster) into which they dropped ink right after saying their vows. The ink signified their signatures. After the ceremony, everyone else came around The Barn and was asked to participate in the signing process on a larger piece. This entailed using droppers to drip many colored inks onto the plaster. (It was a hit with the kids, who added so much color that it started to blend into brown.)
The before and after
Although the wedding reception and ceremony are the main events, it really adds something special to provide things to do for your guests on the days before and after the wedding as many are traveling from distant places. The rehearsal dinner the night before Raye's wedding was held at The Cooperage in Honesdale, PA, with food provided and prepared by Ant Hill Farm Kitchen of Dyberry Township, PA. After the dinner, we all headed over to The Heron in Narrowsburg, NY for a night of fun. The day after the wedding, we gathered at The Barn for a brunch of pastries, fresh fruit and coffee, provided by Beach Lake Bread, and then we either headed down to the river at their property or drove the short distance to Skinners Falls for a lazy day in the sun.
Planning your wedding
What I learned from these weddings is that what makes it special is the personal touches—food from a local farm, wreaths for the bridesmaids made by the bride, a ceremony and reception space that have special meaning to you, handmade gifts, etc. A wedding is a time to let the people you care about into your life, and it's the little things that make it so memorable.

Public Works will be monitoring the warmer temperatures and forecasted rain and the resulting melting snow. We are expecting a short period of snow and freezing rain followed by approximately a ¾ inch rainfall starting in the early morning hours of February 20.
Street ponding is to be expected in most areas due to the inlets being frozen both on top and underneath. Slight ponding at the corners will help to slowly melt the inlets allowing them to function again. Snow also soaks up some of the rain in events like this and may slow down the transmission of rain water to the streets.
If necessary, Public Works has sandbags available at the Service Center, 400 Busse Highway. Crews will be barricading any impassable streets due to ponding. Please call the Service Center at 847/318-5240 to report any heavy street ponding.
The level of the Des Plaines River is low and will not affect Park Ridge.
Potholes are appearing after each freeze/thaw cycle. The City continues to have crews patrolling the streets for potholes and are patching them as they are found. Please call the Public Works Service Center at 847/318-5240 to report any major potholes.
Commonwealth Edison encourages customers to notify them directly as soon as possible if they experience a power outage. Customers can text OUT to 26633 to report their outage and receive restoration information or they can call ComEd at 1-800-EDISON-1.

A teacher was suspended after showing a screening of the R-rated horror film "Saw" to his class of sixth graders.
The students at a middle school in Colombes, France were surprised at watching what was, for many, their first horror film in class, according to Europe 1. "This will be your first horror film," Jean-Baptiste Clément allegedly told the class before showing the 2004 film, which is a violent and graphic story about free will.
An investigation is underway to determine whether more serious punishment is merited, but for now Clément's suspension only lasted one day.
"Saw" was originally classified as NC-17 but was re-edited to achieve an R rating. According to the Motion Picture Association of America, it earned its rating thanks to "grisly violence and language."
