What is an Amnesty Program?
It is an opportunity to return any overdue Spartanburg County Public Libraries' item without paying overdue fees. There is no limit on the number of items you can return or the amount of existing overdue fees. Regardless of whether it is late by one day or 125 years, the Library will not charge overdue fees as long as the item is returned in good condition and you bring canned goods for donation to local charities. Items returned in poor condition may be subject to replacement charges.
Why an Amnesty?
The Spartanburg County Public Libraries realizes the need for library services during these times of economic hardship. Public libraries are needed more than ever in times of economic stress for Internet access and information on practical issues of self-education, resume and job preparation, and more. Libraries are also needed to help reduce stress through movies, books, and other entertainment options. Yet, many citizens in our community are not able to use the Libraries because of overdue fees or because they have items that are long overdue. As a part of our 125th Anniversary celebration, we want to give everyone in the community an opportunity to alleviate these barriers and return to using our services. We also hope to get lots of materials back into circulation for use by the entire community.
As an added benefit to our communities, we will be collecting canned goods for local soup kitchens and other charitable organizations that help those in need. Simply bring in a canned or non-perishable food item and you will receive amnesty for all overdue fees. Food donated during the Amnesty period will go to a charity in the same community where it is donated.
Who is eligible?
Anyone who has an overdue fee or an overdue item is eligible for amnesty. Bring canned goods inside to the checkout desk of your local library branch and we will clear your overdue fees regardless of the amount or how long the items are overdue.
Who is not eligible?
Anyone who has lost or damaged items that belong to the Libraries would not be eligible for amnesty. If you have lost or damaged an item that belongs to the Spartanburg County Public Libraries, the replacement cost of the item would need to be paid before borrowing privileges can be restored.
How long does this amnesty last?
As a part of our 125th Anniversary celebration, we will grant amnesty on overdue items and fees from October 17, 2010 through October 23, 2010. This is a one-time event and items must be returned, or amnesty on existing overdue fees requested, during this time period in order to be eligible.
How do I know if I have overdue items or fees?
Look at the due date on the receipt that came with your items. If the date due is before today's date, your items are overdue.
Go to
and use the "my account" feature of the catalog to check the status of your account. Any overdue items or fees will be listed there.
Call your local library branch, give them your library card number, and ask them to check your account for overdue items or fees.
How do I return my items or get my overdue fees waived?
Simply bring your overdue items and canned goods for charity to the checkout desk at any branch library and tell them you want amnesty for your overdue fees. Items returned in the dropbox are not eligible for amnesty.
Can the amnesty apply to fines on items I returned before the amnesty?
Yes. If you have already returned your items and just want to get your overdue fees cleared, bring canned goods to any branch library and ask for amnesty for your overdue fees.
Does this affect paying for lost books, DVDs, etc.?
No. Replacement of lost Spartanburg County Public Libraries' items remains your responsibility. So does replacing items returned in such poor condition they cannot be returned to the shelves.
What happens if I don't return overdue items during the amnesty?
Beginning October 24, 2010, fines will accumulate as usual for every day overdue. We will not clear fees on items returned after the Amnesty period.

Double Trouble
My first day in high school as a freshman started great. Not only was I now one of the big guys, but it had been almost six weeks since I had been across my Mom's knee feeling the back of her hairbrush way too many times. I think that may have been a record for me. I was feeling good.
My friend Pat and I were horsing around in the hall and knocked over a couple kids causing their books to scatter all over the place. In the scuffle, another kid slipped on the papers that had fallen and sprained her wrist trying to break her fall.
Father O'Brian, the school disciplinarian witnessed the whole thing. Since someone had gotten hurt, even a little, he figured Pat and I needed to learn right away that such horsing around was not part of the school day. Right in the hall he gave us each two good swats with his paddle. They stung pretty bad, but nothing to write home about.
After the smacks he reached in his pocket and filled out two disciplinary notices that we would have to take home and have our parents sign.
When he handed me mine I commented, "I won't be sitting for dinner tonight. Father, do I have to get this signed?"
Pat said, "Me too, my Mom's going to have a fit."
"Boys, you just got a couple of smacks, you will be fine in a little while. I know it stings now but don't make such a big deal over it", he said as he walked away.
What Father did not know was that when my Mom saw the note I would be getting a real blistering with her hairbrush. And since it was at school, I would get a second one two days later. The school year was not starting as planned.
I hung around school until about 5:00 p.m. trying to avoid the inevitable and walked into our kitchen about 5:15. Mom was cooking dinner and asked me how my first day at school was and I replied "OK" as I handed her the notice from father O'Brian.
"Well, it certainly didn't take you long did it? I'll turn dinner down, you get my hairbrush, and we will take care of number one right away", Mom said.
In a couple of minutes the stove was turned down, my bottom was bared and turned up, and Mom was smacking it with her brush.
We were past the ouch stage and into the OOOOWWWWWWW, PLEEEESE STOP, IT HUURTS, OOOWWWWWWWEEE, when the doorbell rang. There was already a fire burning and I was crying.
I was sent to the corner while Mom answered the door with the usual warning that if I rubbed we would start from the beginning.
While I was trying to be quite so no one would know I was there and want to come into the kitchen, I heard something close to the following conversation. The person at the door was Sister Phillips, the school principal.
Mom: "Sister, what are you doing here?"
Sister: "I wanted to make sure there was no mistake about what happened today at school."
Mom: "What are you referring to?"
Sister: "Well, the disciplinarian gave Terry a couple of swats this afternoon, I am sure they stung quite a bit but Terry seemed to think they were much worse than they really were."
Mom: "Yes I know he got the paddle today, but why do you think its severity was being blown out of proportion?"
Sister: "Father told me that Terry said he wouldn't be able to sit for dinner tonight and I assure you that he did not spank him hard enough for that to be the result. I don't mind spanking that hard when necessary, but it didn't happen today."
Mom: "I think I see the confusion. Terry didn't say he got spanked that hard, and I know by looking that he didn't, but he was right that he will be eating at the counter because he won't be able to sit tonight. Come on into the kitchen and I can clear this right up right away."
Sister came into the kitchen and saw me standing in the corner with a bright red bottom on display sniffling away. Now I was both hurting and embarrassed.
Mom continued, "We have a house rule that when Terry gets paddled or spanked at school he gets spanked twice at home. The first time is immediately after school and again two days later so he will have a long memory of the event that caused his pain. It doesn't make any difference if he gets one swat or gets a can't sit down blistering at school, he gets the hairbrush when he gets home. And when I spank, he can never sit down for quite a while."
Sister looked at my bottom and agreed that she wouldn't want to sit on it for a while if it belonged to her. She said it looked pretty red and sore.
Mom said, "You think it looks sore now, we had just started when you arrived. I learned a long time ago that Terry doesn't really get the message until he has been blistered well. I don't know why he is the way he is, but he is, and as long as this works I will keep on doing it. Would you like to see me finish his spanking?"
"Oh Mom, please don't let her stay, I don't want to see her see me acting like a baby", I begged.
"Terry, don't be silly. I am sure Sister has seen young men corrected before. I am also sure when she sees my hairbrush at work she won't think you are a baby. She will undoubtedly see a young man, with a bottom that is really burning, and who just can't help but cry his eyes out and beg me to stop."
"I would be delighted", said Sister Phillips.
In no time at all my now quite red bottom was again facing the ceiling and Sister had a ringside seat.
Since I was already sore, and on the brink of more tears, it only took a second for Mom to get the reaction she was looking for.
Mom just kept on slapping my bottom with the hairbrush until I couldn't sit when she was done. Then it was off to the corner with my bottom on display, tears in my eyes and crying loudly from the pain in my seat. I was one unhappy freshman.
"Quite impressive, I can see now why he said he wouldn't be able to sit tonight", commented Sister. "I can also see that he will have trouble sitting for at least a couple of days. I will let his teachers know that it will be OK if he stands in the back of class the next two days, or should I make it the rest of the week since you said he would be spanked again in a couple of days?"
Mom interrupted, "Oh, please don't do that. I want Terry to be treated just like everyone else, not better, not worse. Yes, he won't want to sit at his desk all day tomorrow, and probably for the rest of the week also. But he also knows that he is responsible for that. His bottom is his problem and he has to suffer the consequences of his actions."
"If Father O'Brian had given him 50 swats and he came home with a fire that just wouldn't quit, he would still get the hairbrush. If he gets the brush at home and earns a real blistering at school, I expect it to be just as hard and long as if you were starting with an un-spanked bottom."
"Before today, Terry had gone almost six weeks without me needing to use my hairbrush, almost a record for him. I knew it wouldn't last, I just didn't think it would be his first day in high school. You will find that Terry is a good kid who unfortunately acts long before his brain starts working and a sore bottom is just the medicine he needs."
"Sister, just promise me one thing, don't give Terry an inch."
Sister assured Mom she would be more than happy to grant that wish and could only hope that more parents would make the same request.
As much as I wanted to stay out of trouble, after Mom and Sister had their little conversation, there would be many unpleasant experiences over the next four years, it seems I just couldn't help myself. Some events that come to mind are:
You are welcome and invited to contact the authors Rose and Terry

The tradition continues at the Lake George Baking Company
which produces the original "Fudge Fancy" cookie. A happy marriage between fudge and cookie that consists of a huge swirl of richly textured chocolate fudge on top of our signature sugar cookie.
This cookie was known as "the dessert cookie" and it was also the signature cookie of the formerly owned Vanilla Bean Bakery and it can still be enjoyed today at the Lake George Baking Company!

The Lockland school board has voted to finalize the firing of former Superintendent Donna Hubbard, who had been ousted in August amid a data-rigging scandal that caused the state to downgrade the district's academic rating.
Hubbard has denied she intentionally manipulated attendance data to improve the district's academic standing. She has been fighting since then to keep her job. The board's vote at Monday's meeting was unanimous.

Hey, I'm Desmond Layne, Peach Specialist at Clemson University. Welcome to the Clemson Tiger Peach Network.
If you've been following our "Everything About Peaches" videos that we began last year, you're probably familiar with the one called "The Perfect Peach". To be honest, we were shocked when this thing went viral and had over a million views on the Internet! Well, perhaps, I exaggerate just a little bit. But go ahead and buckle your seatbelt and get ready for this long awaited sequel to this trilogy.
Not so very long ago in a peach orchard not too far away…
Dr. Peach: In order to protect "The Perfect Peach" from any two-legged deer doing the old five-fingered discount - if you know what I mean - I have hired the very best security in the galaxy. He should be coming out of hyperspace any second now.
Jango Fett: Dr. Peach, I trust our arrangement is still in order.
Dr. Peach: Let me remind you just how critical your assignment is, Jango. This "top secret" peach is the single most delicious peach in the history of the universe. For a task as significant as this, I need you to be willing to do whatever is necessary to protect "The Perfect Peach" from falling into the wrong hands!
Jango Fett: Consider it done!
Dr. Peach: You da man!
Jango Fett : You're a rather odd sort of creature aren't you!
Andy: Daniel, do you remember last year when we got to taste "The Perfect Peach"? It had that awesome shape, color, and it had that delicious smell and it gave to my squeeze.
Daniel: Yeah, Andy, I remember that! It melted in your mouth, it was really sweet and juicy and it even dripped off my elbows! That's what we're looking for!
Andy: Oh yeah!
Andy: I bet if we looked really hard, we could find it out here.
Daniel: Yeah, it should be ripening right about now!
Andy and Daniel (in unison): Could it really be that simple??!!
Andy: Daniel, do you think we could snag a few without anybody knowing?
Daniel: You know Andy, I was thinking the exact same thing!
Jango Fett: Freeze!
Daniel: Who are you?
Andy: What are you doing in our orchard?
Jango: Your orchard? Likely story! Drop those peaches and maybe I won't have to kill you!
Andy: What are you talking about? We work for Dr. Peach, really!
Jango Fett: Do you think I was born on the back streets of Tattooeen? My patience is running out. Drop those peaches now!
Andy: Do you think we could run for it?
Daniel: We better run fast!!
Jango Fett: Escape is not an option! Surrender or face disintegration!
Jango Fett: I hate to have to do this!
Dr. Peach: You know finding the perfect peach doesn't have to be hazardous to your health, right? Why not visit your local farm stand or roadside market where you can find your very own tree-ripened, "Perfect Peach" to buy and take home and enjoy.
Dr. Peach: You know, peach season is the best time of the year and before you know it the season is going to be over! So whatever galaxy you are from, go out and go visit your local farmers and buy as many peaches as you can.
Dr. Peach: Making healthy food choices for you and your family includes eating lots of fresh fruit like peaches. Sometimes being Dr. Peach, I feel like I have to come to the defense of peach growers. Don't believe any of those reports on TV, or online or in the newspaper that say peaches are unsafe because of pesticide residues. My Dad has been eating fresh peaches for almost 50 years. My wife, my children and I - we've been eating fresh peaches almost as long. The only problem we ever had was that we ran out of fresh peaches to eat!
Dr. Peach: Remember, fresh peaches are a delicious summertime treat. They are a whole lot better for you than chips or cheese puffs!
For more educational videos and information about peaches, you should visit my "Everything About Peaches" website at www.clemson.edu/peach. And if you would like to read my columns for the American Fruit Grower magazine, you can go to their website at www.growingproduce.com.

aumbody images says:
"Ray has a mindboggling, envy inducing ability to see the moment. Time after time, he cuts through the city's swirling bs, clutter and noise and captures the very fraction of a second when the picture comes together. Shot, after shot, after shot, he brings us a complete, arresting and flawless image.
It is a privilege to view Ray's world. The hardest thing is finding comments which the do the photographs justice - there are only so many times you can say "Wow!" and "perfect" and "yes" without them sounding old."

"DownTown has such a powerful photostream. In it you'll find real life captured with heart and soul and a goodly measure of creativity and skill. Unique perspectives, wonderful light and treatments abound. Most of all there is a keen sense of the human spirit that weaves its way through the images found here. I particularly enjoy DownTowns capture of urban life. Brilliant!"

"When I first saw a picture of Ray's in a flickr. stream it was like a punch in the stomach, a shock of recognition. I did not know who it was but I immediately had to visit his profile. I remained spellbound by images which, regardless of their subject, are universal by the way they spell out our human condition, the good, the bad, the tender, the tragic, the beautiful.
Thank you for inviting us on your journey, Ray."

"Ray's photos are tremendous treats for the eyes and mind. I keep visiting his stream and am always amazed at the beauty and insight that his photos reveal.
His biggest gift to me, however, has been his advice to shoot from my heart. This bit of advice, serves not only as inspiration for me, but also as an indicator of the fabric of HIS heart.
Big hugs, gratitude and admiration to him, always."

Ok, let's go for it.
Let x be the side of the square (see picture below).
Let's calculate the perimeter in respect with x.
We know that each semicircle is 15cm.
But ! You know that they are semicircles of a circle which diameter is x.
As the perimeter of a semicircle is half the perimeter of the circle :
Now, the area !
The area is the sum of the areas of :
- the square
- the 4 semicircles.
You should know the area of the square
So let's see what the area of 1 semicircle is :
The area of a semicircle is half the area of the circle.
Hence , where r is actually
So what is the area of the whole thing ?

The year cult shoe brand Dr Martens celebrated its 50th year. The DM boot has had an iconic place on footwear history with its role in many different youth sub cultures from punks to skin heads and Goths. In my teenage years my black DM boots were permanently welded to my feet, these were the days before I started crippling myself with high heels. As a teenager I was a bit of a Goth (although I think Goths were a bit different back then to they are now) and also went through various stages of dressing in a way that could probably be described as Indie or grunge. My outfits consisted mainly of long skirts or shorter skirts with black opaque tights and velvet jackets from second hand shops with black Dr Marten boots.
With the whole grunge revival going on, I have been really tempted to invest in a pair of Dr Martens. They are so versatile and comfy and I know I would get loads of wear out of them. But another part of me thinks that I have already been there and done that.
I was really pleased to discover a whole range of alternative Dr. Martens on Spartoo. Ideal for a fresh take on my old favourite and perfect for the grown up grunge girl.
Did anyone else used to wear Dr Martens? Will you be wearing them again?

Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine is backing former Republican Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty for president.
DeWine, a former two-term U.S. senator and four-term member of the U.S. House, said today that Pawlenty is the "right man" to serve as president.
"As a two-term governor, Pawlenty understands what it takes to be a leader, knows the importance of supporting state and local governments, and has shown time after time a dedication to protecting children and families," DeWine said in a prepared statement released by the Pawlenty campaign.
DeWine said Pawlenty "has a record of fighting for the conservative ideals that he believes in without alienating those who disagree."
Pawlenty is among 10 GOP candidates who have declared for the race, including Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota, businessman Herman Cain, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.

Oh, the joys of recruiting.
When I do pieces like these, I truly feel for the coaches around college basketball. It's enough to bang your head on the wall over. That is no different for Roy Williams in 2013.
The Tar Heels certainly have some needs, but they could have more or less depending on which player or players decide to enter the NBA draft. He can't put out too many offers and overload the team, but he must remember UNC could be obliterated by the decisions of his underclassmen.
At least John Calipari knows all his kids are leaving year-to-year.
If Leslie McDonald ends up ballin', as the last year of hype has lead us to believe, will he forfeit his redshirt senior season?
We could ask the same of Reggie Bullock, who would also be a senior in 2013.
And what about P.J. Hairston? There was at least rumor that Hairston was 50/50 on heading to the NBA—and that was with him shooting 30.8 percent from the field and 27.3 percent from downtown over 13 minutes per game.
If that is true, I'm saying he's gone no matter what. In a nutshell, Roy Williams could have three shooting guards or none.
Then, of course, there is James Michael McAdoo. He had a tough time with his decision last year, so I have no doubt he is gone.
Then again, he could decide to stay if they're close to a title. Are you feeling me yet? For the sake of the article and my head, we will assume he does not return.
Coach Williams has already received verbal commitments from 4-star point guard Nate Britt and 5-star power forward Isaiah Hicks. They are ranked fifth and sixth in their class, respectively, at their positions on Scout.com.
Though they are verbal commits, in this case we will assume they stick to their word. On to the roster.

I spent a few years as a Paramedic, and this accident was insane!
A collision at the intersection of Lewis Street and 28th Street in Pasco slowed evening commuters trying to cross the Blue Bridge.
A Kennewick man was hospitalized after hitting a house on south Sherman street in Kennewick. He was allegedly driving drunk. According to KNDU the man tried to report the car as stolen.The Kennewick, Pasco, Richland and West Richland Police Departments, the Benton and Franklin County Sheriff's Offices and the Washington State Patrol will participate in Washington State's first-ever Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign.
Last week, blogger Sean Symons captured horrifying footage of a teen driver who crashed into the side of the road, then hit two oncoming cars, all while he was allegedly texting and driving.
According to his YouTube page, Symons called the police when he spotted the texting teen, then pulled out his camera to catch the teen in the act. The original video was reportedly handed over to the police as evidence, Symons said.

By: Steve Persutti, VP of Operations Development, Power Delivery Engineering
Last month, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approved NERC's Reliability Standard for transmission planning, TPL-001-4.
TPL-001-04 consolidates four previously effective transmission planning standards into one standard and includes provisions that significantly limit the use of load loss as a solution to meet performance requirements.
Under the standard, planned Non-Consequential Load Loss cannot exceed 75 MW for registered US entities. And planners must now examine, document and evaluate their load loss plans in a public, verifiable, and enforceable stakeholder process prior to implementation.
More details about TPL-001-4 and the compliance actions you will need to take are available in TRC's latest Regulatory Update.
The standard will go into effect in a phased approach over the next few years.
Regulated should prepare now for compliance. Important areas of focus include:
- Review the requirements of TPL-001-4 and assess the implications for your existing transmission planning processes and procedures.
- If your plan permits Non-Consequential Load Loss, you will need a compliance plan which demonstrates that public comment and review of the plans has occurred.
- Various steady state, short circuit and stability studies will be needed to assess your transmission planning initiatives.
- Coordination of planning with transmission system protection, generation protection and control, UFLS programs and other related standards is essential.
For more information, please download TRC's NERC Compliance Support overview and TPL-001-4 Regulatory Update.
How do you plan to address reliability related to Non-Consequential Load Loss planning? What is your biggest challenge related to this issue? Please share your questions and best practices in the comments section below.
This is a moderated blog, and all comments will be reviewed before posting. TRC retains the discretion to determine which comments will be posted.

Potential side effects of topical chemotherapy for non-melanoma skin cancer
Side effects can occur with any type of treatment for non-melanoma skin cancer, but not everyone has them or experiences them in the same way. Side effects of topical chemotherapy will depend mainly on:
- the type of drug
- the dose
- the person's overall health
Chemotherapy kills cancer cells, but it can also damage healthy cells. Different cells and tissues in the body tolerate chemotherapy differently. Topical chemotherapy is applied to a specific area of the skin. Very little of the drug is absorbed into the body and side effects are generally related to the treatment area.
Side effects can happen any time during, immediately after, or a few days or weeks after chemotherapy. Most side effects go away after chemotherapy is finished. Late side effects can occur months or years after chemotherapy. Some side effects may last a long time or be permanent. It is important to report side effects to the healthcare team.
Skin changes
Some chemotherapy drugs can cause minor skin changes or skin irritation. Skin changes can occur during and for some time after chemotherapy. It is important to be aware that skin may be more sensitive or easily irritated during treatment.
Some general skin reactions that can occur are:
- redness
- inflammation
- rash
- itching
- oozing
- pain
Sensitivity to the sun
Many drugs can make the skin more sensitive to sunlight (called photosensitivity) while a person is receiving chemotherapy. This sensitivity can continue for a few months after treatment is finished.
Protect skin from the sun by wearing a wide-brimmed hat and clothing that covers the arms and legs. Apply sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of 30 or higher before going outside and limit time outdoors. Zinc oxide can be used to fully block out the sun, but it should be used along with other sun-protection measures.
The skin in the area treated may scar.
Note: Other side effects may occur. For more detailed information on specific drugs, go to sources of drug information.
Volunteers provide comfort and kindness
Thousands of Canadian Cancer Society volunteers work in regional cancer centres, lodges and community hospitals to support people receiving treatment.

'Treme,' Ep. 29: Heckuva View
November 12, 2012. Posted by Joshua Jackson.Add new comment | Filed under: A Blog Supreme, TremeDesiree (Phyllis Montana-LeBlanc) takes the initiative to document shady construction projects. (Image Credit: Paul Schiraldi/HBO)
After the musical bonanza that was the Mardi Gras episode, things slow down for some plot development in episode eight of Treme's third season. The writing team sticks to its other strengths: the minutiae of a broken police system, how to run a restaurant, bureaucracy in action and various romantic interludes.
But a few live music scenes do make it to screen. Here's Josh Jackson of WBGO for some analysis.
Patrick Jarenwattananon: The bluesman Sonny Landreth shows up, and Annie gets to play a little obbligato violin. Two things are immediately obvious: one, that he's really good at guitar, and two, that if he's singing about the view from Air Force One, there's a bit of a political message in this one.
Josh Jackson: Sonny Landreth, an excellent slide guitarist, recorded "Blue Tarp Blues" with another fine plectrist, Mark Knopfler. You can find it leading off From the Reach, featuring Landreth with an all-star guest cast. As for the message, the lyric starts: "Air Force One had a heck of a view / Looking down on the patchwork of the blue tarp blues." After the storm, FEMA distributed thousands of blue tarps to homeowners with roof damage, and their widespread use came to signify something beyond that initial need. Most folks kept the ubiquitous covers, both as a badge of honor and for possible future use.
PJ: Lots of so-called "modern jazz" on this show. We hear Delmond and Jonathan Batiste (and the band) jam on the Thelonious Monk blues "Misterioso," at the House of Blues. Later, we hear the Batistes and company working on some hard-bop stuff. Antoine Batiste seems a bit out of his element trying to play J.J. Johnson and Freddie Hubbard lines. The recording of the rehearsal sounded pretty good, though, to these ears accustomed to that ride cymbal feel.
JJ: That's the young phenom Joe Dyson on drums during rehearsal. Max Moran is on bass. Both of these gents play with saxophonist Donald Harrison, who also appears in this scene. They're playing Freddie Hubbard's "The 7th Day," from The Artistry of Freddie Hubbard. The other trombonist is Michael Watson, a native of Canton, Ohio, who plays in the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra.
Earlier, Antoine Batiste practices along to a classic Blue Note recording, The Eminent Jay Jay Johnson Volume II. It is clear that Antoine will need a little more viscosity on his slide if he wants to replicate those amazing lines from the master.
PJ: While Davis drowns his sorrows at Chickie Wah Wah — I like that his downsized album is called Old Cats Who Ain't Been Paid — there's also a piano-and-vocal duo in the background. Who is that?
JJ: It's Leigh "Lil Queenie" Harris singing "10 Carat Blues" with Josh Paxton. We've heard Lil Queenie in an earlier season, singing "My Darlin' New Orleans" with The Percolators. Here, she's with Paxton, a pianist who integrated studied research of James Booker's pianism into what he does.
PJ: Finally, any background music catch your ear this episode?
JJ: Desautel's was popping with good music! The Iguanas' "My Girlfriend Is a Waitress" plays in the kitchen background. I also heard Paul Sanchez's "Exit to Mystery Street," trumpeter Leroy Jones playing "Basin Street Blues" and Tom McDermott's "Opulence" in the restaurant. This was just the soft launch! On opening night, we get a double dose of the wonderful clarinet player Evan Christopher: "Way Down Yonder" and "The King of Treme."
I suppose the riverfront scene with Sonny and Linh deserves a mention: They hear the Steamboat Natchez calliope whistling out Joplin's "The Entertainer." And, after all that "modern jazz," we leave with Jelly Roll Morton's "Don't You Leave Me Here" under the end credits.

The last half of the set was uncomfortable to watch because he couldn't even attempt any of the higher vocals. Quite disappointing after how awesome the first 6 or 7 songs were. They did not play I Don't Believe in Love, Take Hold, or Jet City Woman on Friday night in NJ. Band sounded great throughout the night and the set really started to kick right before his voice went. I would be surprised if you told me his voice lasted through the entire set without the same issues.
There was noticeable wear on his voice by the end of the show, but nothing alarming, and I could hear the vocals pretty clearly. I actually noticed him struggling more on songs like Walk in the Shadows than on anything like The Needle Lies, Prophecy, or Roads to Madness. The band seemed ecstatic with his performance though, and he mentioned that had undergone pretty drastic measures to keep his voice as great as possible for the show. Apparently half the band are actually sick right now. All I'm gonna say is that if this was him while under the weather, him at 100% capacity must be unbelievable, because he still put Tate to shame all night.

Children and Youth during the Civil War Era
Publication Year: 2012
Prominent historians and rising scholars explore issues important to both the Civil War era and to the history of children and youth, including the experience of orphans, drummer boys, and young soldiers on the front lines, and even the impact of the war on the games children played in this collection. Each essay places the history of children and youth in the context of the sectional conflict, while in turn shedding new light on the sectional conflict by viewing it through the lens of children and youth. A much needed, multi-faceted historical account, Children and Youth during the Civil War Era touches on some of the most important historiographical issues with which historians of children and youth and of the Civil War home front have grappled over the last few years.

Scrapping Ships: Is Our Navy Planning for the Future?Posted by Randy | March 22, 2012
Here are some issues we are discussing in today's House Armed Service Readiness subcommittee hearing with Navy leadership for fleet maintenance.
Obama Budget Cuts Force Early Retirement of Perfectly Good Ships
In addition to the expected retirement of 16 ships, the Navy has proposed the early retirement of seven more cruisers and two amphibious ships in the next two years. The Navy has reported that six of the cruisers have 13-15 years of service life remaining and both amphibious ships have 13-18 years of service life.
Maintaining Ships We Have Already Bought
The committee has estimated that the approximate cost to upgrade the six cruisers with the necessary Ballistic Missile Defense Capability and to retain the two LSDs would be $592 million next year plus an additional $859 million in 2014. Vice Admiral Kevin McCoy, Commander, Naval Air Systems Command, said last year, "the cheapest way to afford our Navy with the force structure that we need to maintain the ships we already have…"
American Taxpayer Assets Being Scrapped
The USS Vicksburg (CG 69), which cost approximately $1 billion to build, is scheduled to be decommissioned and destroyed in 2013. Commissioned in November 1992, the guided missile cruiser was expected to be decommissioned in 2027, after 35 years of service. The Obama budget plans to eliminate seven cruisers in the next two years. (32% of the fleet worth approximately $7 billion.) Put simply, the administration is carelessly throwing away significant American taxpayer investments well before their useful life ends.
Sinking the Equivalent of the U.K. Royal Navy FleetThe four cruisers scheduled to be retired in 2014 exceed the entire missile capacity of the entire United Kingdom Royal Navy fleet. (520 for four U.S. cruisers vs. 440 for U.K. battle force missiles)
Doing Less with Less
Last year, the Navy met 53% of Combatant Commander demands, down 6% from 2010. Yet the Navy proposed a top line of 285 ships this year (down from 288 the year prior). Secretary of Defense Panetta said it is his "hope" to increase the fleet to 300 ships.
Current State of Aviation Maintenance
Naval aviation has remained relatively constant – with a level aircraft inventory and steady maintenance requirements. The administration's budget only supports 94% of total aircraft depot maintenance requirements. The account is $36 million less than the 2012 budget, resulting in a backlog of 74 airframes and 170 engines.
Stress on Navy Sailors and Families
A total of 10 carrier strike group or amphibious group deployments have exceeded seven months over the past five years. Admiral Mark Ferguson, the Vice Chief of Naval Operations said, "50 percent of our ships under way are stretching out to about 7 months. Some ships are doing longer in order to do operational commitments overseas. And so, they're under stress."

Sequestration Would Cost Navy 55 More Ships

Dec. 18, 2008
Marshall County
Alabama, USA
Charles was a kind man who loved his wife and family. He loved to shop at yard sales and watch Alabama play football. He was a huge Alabama fan and would rarely wear a shirt that was not an Alabama football shirt. He was also rarely seen without his Alabama cap.
Charles grew up in Arab and graduated from Arab High School. He worked at Mueller for 29 years and was on his way to work when he died. It was his last night to work before his Christmas break.
Charles married Dottie Lang on May 31, 1980. He said he wanted their anniversary to be either the first of the month or the last of the month so he would never forget the date. After marrying Dottie, he lived in Guntersville until his death.
Charles is survived by his wife, Dottie Sue Lang Harvell; his mother Vera Lou Ellenburg Harvell of Arab; 2 brothers, Henry Harvell of Arab and James Harvell of Alaska; a sister, Martha Frances Harvell of Arab; and brother-in-law and sister-in-law L.V. and Gloria Jean Lang of Arab. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his father, Charles Edward Harvell, and his brother Jimmy Harvell.
The pallbears were Gary Simth, Ricky Brock, Herbert Childs (all three worked at Mueller with Charles), Thomas Harvell (nephew of Charles), Rickey Lang, and Billy Miller. Honorary pallbearers were Mark Alexander, Cleveland Hale, and Lyle Lang (also nephew of Charles).
Charles was a great man and will be missed by all.

The Waipukurau Library and Waipukurau Memorial Hall have been classified "earthquake prone" but the mayor of Central Hawke's Bay reckons there's no cause for alarm.
Structural engineer firm GHD was commissioned by the Central Hawke's Bay District Council to complete an initial evaluation of its three civic buildings for earthquake performance against the new buildings standards in 2012.
The council's chief executive, John Freeman said the report concluded the library and memorial hall both appeared to have been well constructed and were in reasonable condition structurally for their age.
"But because of the structural design standards prevalent at the time they were built, the estimated earthquake performance is measured as 9 per cent for the Waipukurau Library and 21 per cent for the memorial hall, of the new building standard.
"This is less than the 33 per cent minimum and therefore the buildings are classified as potentially earthquake prone in terms of the Building Act."
The Civic Theatre's estimated earthquake performance measured as 64 per cent of the new building standard. It was above the threshold for being potential earthquake prone, in terms of the Building Act; however is below the threshold of 67 per cent for "no potential earthquake risk".
CHB Mayor Peter Butler said GHD told the council there was no imminent risk to people in the buildings. "... but it depends on when the next earthquake happens and what form the earthquake takes, how strong, what direction, what depth, etc."
Mr Butler said the information from GHD stated it is unlikely the library building would collapse catastrophically, but that will depend on the earthquake. "There is always the alternative option of crossing the two bridges and using the modern, up-market Waipawa Library.
"So it's business as usual, with the next steps for the council being to further assess the information received from GHD, carrying out more in-depth assessments of the buildings, and speak to key stakeholders prior to making any decisions on the best action to take to ensure continuity of service without risk to staff or community."
Mr Butler said the assessments would cost about $10,000 each.


text: This supplemental order concerns a Motion for Reconsideration (Case No. VBR-0002) filed by Westinghouse Savannah River Company (WSRC) on November 12, 1999. The reconsideration motion relates to an Initial Agency Decision issued by the Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA) of the Department of Energy (DOE) on November 2, 1999 (Case No. VBH-0002). In the Initial Agency Decision, I granted relief to the Complainant on the whistleblower complaint he had filed against WSRC under 10 C.F.R. Part 708.(1) I found that WSRC had failed to prove by "clear and convincing" evidence that it would have terminated the Complainant absent his protected disclosure. In its reconsideration motion, WSRC contends that met its evidentiary burden in this case, and urges me to deny the relief to the Complainant.

Mobile phones 'bankrupting' more teens
According to the NSW government, mobile phones are to blame for the increasing numbers of young Australians seeking to declare themselves bankrupt, reports The Age.
"Fair Trading Minister Linda Burney said a survey conducted by the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) had highlighted concerns about "premium" mobile phone content and the massive bills being racked up - often unknowingly - by users.
"Suddenly they have got bills of $3,000 to $4,000 because they thought services they were getting in term of downloads and ringtones, and voting on Big Brother, were free," Ms Burney told reporters.
"In fact it is enormously expensive ... it has become an enormous problem."
